Midnight Scambaits here, creator of the Scammer Hotline. It’s been heavily requested that I bring the hotline back (especially after the Scammer Payback stream), so I am. However, note that heavy restrictions to the number will be in place to prevent abuse. Prior actions of the scambaiting community lead to me shutting it down, and I will be putting it back trusting that you can bait maturely and properly. Have fun!
Phone number of the hotline: 606-SCAMMER (606-722-6637)
Some guidelines:
Avoid hacking or deleting the scammers files on this number. http://scammer.info/t/deleting-files-running-viruses-pointless/114710
Don’t be silly and get the scammers suspicious such as telling them they are hacked.
Don’t mass conference scammers and constantly curse and troll them every single time you get one.
Any information you get such as bank information from this number or any other baits I am happy to receive and help get them reported via scammer.info PMs if you want of course.
We appreciate the generous offer to use your system. A few years ago we had a somewhat similar system. We eventually found it necessary to have people email us and request a PIN number (which changed daily) to keep the abuse to a minimum.
I hope everyone respects the rules and appreciates the time, effort, resources and money that’s involved in keeping this up and running.
Holy crap that’s annoying. Almost 41 minutes? I could only take about a minute of it, but I want to copy it. Maybe even make it into an endless loop for the really dedicated scammers.
I do have a recording of one call where I flushed the toilet while supposedly looking for my Medeecare card. I’ll have to see if that was the guy who called me an SOB because he thought I was wasting his time. Well, yeah.
