Scamming the Scamers
Scammers and Spammers are everywhere! Our only weapon is our own vigilance to make sure we can spot them and our due diligence to research who is a real business and who is not. It can get difficult, but you should also report scamming attempts in the hopes they will eventually die out, but in the mean time, we can best waste their time which in turn gives them less profitability.
On this video I detail some of the things I did when I wasted a scammers time, somethings I would have done differently, and talk about things we could do as a country (in the US) to help fight the scammers. The game is On!
