I, uh, had some fun near the end. Didn't get much in return, though.

Fake schmuck.

When I got into the car earlier after school, my mom was hysterically laughing. Why?

She was trolling a scammer into oblivion.

Turns out that she got a call from the "IRS" about an arrest warrant out for her, but instead of ignoring the message from the already-sketchy phone number, she just straight up dialed in.

And flooded them with question. After. Question.

Hey folks!

I know I have some of you added on Discord.

I got a strange message from someone this morning "from" someone on FIMFiction inviting me to a Discord server. Said server requested that I scan a QR code to join it using my mobile Discord app.

I'm 99.9% certain that it is just a way to hijack people's accounts, doubly so as I was unable to reply to the person in question.

I've noticed the ads on YouTube seem to be displaying A LOT of "free" $100 PSN or some other gift cards, it HAS to be a scam, there's NO WAY that's just for free, what do you guys think?

I basically just made another blog post, and what do I see there? Plastered right between the post and the comments below, a scam add denoting 'World Best Flashlight'.

And yes, world. Not 'worlds'. They didn't even take the effort to make their damned add believable. If you click on the link-

Short and to the point. FFLLAS is done out to the eleven chapter point. I'm struggling a little getting Chapter 11 (which has symbolic importance to any Flim-Flam story) to line up just right, but in *theory* I could start posting today. (Which I'm not)

I got a weird note on DA from someone I've never heard of, asking me to sign up on this link: https://www.deviantart.com/users/outgoing?http://id8246.yourgirl.us and follow her so she can send me "hot pics". I haven't clicked the link yet.

Tell me, is this another scam?

Link to game. This is seriously a real thing.

HEY THERE, ALL OF YOU CHRISTIAN GAMERZ!

There are a lot of blogs, posts, and news articles out there decrying the pricing of the big publisher's books. They make regular appearances on smaller author's sites, reddit's r/books, and very frequently in the circles of indie authors. "Publishers are making their books too expensive!" they cry. Look at the price of these books!

This is a call I’ve gotten several times. It’s always in really bad female text-to-speech.

I have been trying to sell my guitars before I moved back home because I both needed the extra free space and the money. One of these guitars happens to be one of the most collectible and increasingly sought after Fender Jag-Stangs. Mine was from the last run, so it makes it more special.

I almost fell for a Telegram YouTube scam for some random prize that would’ve scammed me out of my money, I thought it was too good to be true and at first I didn’t find anything involving scams…until I came across this:

A million thanks for this guy for warning us about these kinds of scams, please spread the word and prevent any further thievery. I will be posting an image later on of what was sent to me before I almost fell for this trick.

“No.” *skips ad.*

I got good news and bad.

First: it feels pretty awesome to finally get my money back in full with thanks to my bank after opening up a debit card dispute. The lines were busy and I was transferred through about four or five different people just to get to the correct department. I was on the phone for two minutes under an hour to get the entire thing sorted, but I'm so glad it worked out.
