It took years of work and vigilance to stop cursing and to lose the chip I had on my shoulder when I arrived here. Well now that the scammers have ruined my afternoon naps recently I just scream see you in court and every truck driver curse word and words I make up during my 30 second rant. I even do what to me is the unthinkable. I bring their Momma into the rant in a not so kind manner. The calls have stopped for four days.

Peace and Love in The Love Shack reigns once again. This subject is a big issue for us! I feel everyone’s pain.

Scammers. Another category of criminals to be punished with the ultimate penalty. That solution may not stop ALL scammers but it is guaranteed to stop ALL those caught from becoming repeat offenders.

I don’t know how to link onto this site. You can google “ YouTube Scammer Payback” and it will take you to his site. He is a bit of an odd character with colored hair. He goes by the handle “Pierogi”. Does a great job of fouling up the call centers. He now has a pretty larger “counter scammer” operation. He speaks Hindi which rattles the call center scammers as he can understand their conversations in the background during their scam calls. The videos can be long but amusing to listen to

Oh man don’t get suckered into these BS calls or emails. If you don’t know them or you didn’t contacted them & especially a store that say YOU WON, or they like to make you an OFFER for a FREE drill or something. Delete it right away or you will get SCAMMED!

it still amazes me that people are bothered so much by these calls , when it’s just so easy to not answer the phone. I don’t seem to get many , maybe because I just ignore them . As far as emails and text the ones that do get through after the I phone blocks many , well I just delete them , simple and serene process . God the things that bother people

Whenever I receive something that looks like it might be legit, I go to that website directly where I can determine its legitimacy, instead of clicking on links within the e-mail or responding to the e-mail. As far as calls go, I activated the "silence unknown callers" option on my phone. Most of them are pretty obvious though, especially when I get a call from Verizon or Comcast, neither of which I am a customer of. You'd have to be pretty gullible to fall for 99% of them, IMO.

Thank you for linking this. I watch this guy occasionally. Hilarious. Sometimes he does work with law enforcement too. Until India starts cracking down on them won’t stop (Why should they? Bringing big bucks into the subcontinent!!)
