My mom trolled a scammer. · 8:21pm Oct 12th, 2017

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.

If you get a strange message on Discord, it is probably a way of stealing your Discord account · 3:37pm Jul 1st, 2022

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.

Why Does Fimfiction Allow Scam Sites To Advertise And Post Adds On This Site? · 9:00pm Jan 15th, 2016

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-

Flim, Flam, and the Little Lost Apple Scam · 12:47am May 7th, 2017

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)

Tell Me Guys... Part 3 · 5:13pm Jan 12th, 2021

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?

Op-Ed: The Indie Scam · 7:34pm Feb 3rd, 2016

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!

I got scammed BIG time... · 5:06pm Jan 31st, 2021

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 It · 12:38pm Sep 14th, 2022

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.

I've got good news and bad news - what happened with the scam at Hermes International and how they screwed me over + I got my money back! · 7:23pm Feb 14th, 2021

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.
