no kidding. i literally berated my mother for answering a weird phone call and then i proceeded to fall for the following scams:

1. a text message saying a postal package couldn't be delivered and needed an extra postage amount (in my defense it was the exact same day that I was expecting a package). i paid for the extra 20 cents with a credit card that was then charged for various purchases at Walmart, every single magazine (i have no idea why magazines). I'm still unsubscribing from online magazines.

2. ordered a book on conspiracies from random website (never showed up)

3. something else i've already forgotten

Yep, all it takes is just small probabilities and a good scheme to execute the scam

yeah, in the grand scheme of things we're all scammers. at least these folks were orange and purple-pilled so they have good tech skills and orientation towards freedom. who knows they might take the zaps and actually fight cancer with it.

now that i think about it, half of the people working for military etc are basically scammers. and i don't have a choice in not supporting them.

no i'm kidding, i appreciate the individuals in the military, the little scammers

i did a similar thing to 2. but it was a bitcoin miner, two, i think, and i was then 3000 eur in the hole and they even abused trustpilot even though multiple other non-fulfillment reports were filed against this site - myminershop btw, don't ever.
