Most of us could almost repeat the DEA/SSA script by heart so now when Dwight Schrute, Jim Halpert, Creed Bratton, Kevin Malone, Todd Packer or Stanley Hudson call I make sure to anticipate some of the key script components. First, I tell them to “explain me each and everything at this right moment.” When they first start, of course I interrupt them frequently and ask them, “is this on a federally recorded and monitored line?” That doesn’t quite set them off usually.
Once they get into the script and mention the abandoned car on the south border of Taxes, they'll mention drug residue being found. I ask, "what type of drugs did they find?" Responding with "Cocaine???" I'll then state emphatically, "Cocaine!! That's an abusive drug!!"
Then when we ask me where I live I calmly tell them, "Rowlett, Texas." My address? 7609 Clairmont Avenue, Rowlett, TX 75089. That is one of the addresses for the supposed drug house mentioned in several scripts.
Probably 75% of the numb nuts don't pick up on that and often times they continue the script with the exact terminology I use. I've had a few tell me "fuck you" and then go into how many of my female family members they intend on impaling. More often than not though, I still get transferred to the "Senior Officer" for more hyjinx.
@FattyMatty#157456 Don’t forget to give an extraordinarily long name with multiple accents that they just can’t pronounce, and go on a long rant about them being not able to pronounce it. Make sure they don’t call you sir or madam. It’s fun to see how long they last.
@ThatPikachuMain#157512 One I use is Xzavier Preobrazhensky, if I want a real laugh I’ll ask them to spell it in the Cyrillic alphabet. I know nothing about the Cyrillic alphabet but usually we don’t get past the first letter.
@FattyMatty#157456 My favorite script trolling in when they get to the “on the south boarder” part, I like to flip the script alittle and reply “south of the boarder? that’s Mexico!” … I have had several occasions that lead to a 5 min or more argument about where exactly the car was… ON the boarder before Mexico or South of the boarder IN Mexico.
Sometimes I also re-kindle the argument after being transferred to the Hi - er - a - tore - a - dee .
@newtondial#157715 This is a really good question newtondial… I have wondered this myself, with the amount of scambaiters trolling them on their script and regular people getting these calls and having heard about the scam. It’s a wonder that they continue.
I think it comes down to straight up laziness. Some scammer wrote the script and at first it was good and it scared alot of people into giving up their money. But even with it fizzing away, they are still looking for those few suckers living in a dark hole that can be duped out of their life savings.
Last year I actually had a scammer (claiming to be the owner of his little operation) offer me to write him a new script. For which he would pay me handsomely. I had baited them for about an hour and I revealed that I was wasting their time and went on a bit of a tirade about how stupid their script was. He jumped on and started asking me how much I made a year, how much I made for doing scambaiting, ect… He was trying to get under my skin with his dirty money. I played along for a bit, trying to get maybe a name or location from him but it became apparent he wanted me to produce everything first and send it to some random email, then I would get his info and payment.
I of course would never help them, not for any price. But it says volumes about how they operate. They are lazy, they stick to a script and would only change it if they scammed someone out of a better/new script.
@Telescope#157726 i wonder if people know ur fav youtube scam baiter that gets all the recordings of the scammers web cams and offices is actually using a rat trojan they tricked the scammer to click on
@ThatPikachuMain#157838 Jim Browning is a UK Master Baiter who has an incredible technical background. He has recorded several helpful videos on how scams work and he has infiltrated call centers with real time audio and video from the scammer’s own computer. He provides a great service to potential victims. He’s even called victims real time to warn them of the scam and prevented them from being defrauded. Seems like a great guy. https://www.youtube.com/c/JimBrowning/featured
