He must have known I was a shrimp, not a whale. He asked me for a lot less than he asked Jor. I'm insulted 😀

the whole thing with the video is also a bit suspicious... Not even to my closest irl fiend will give 10M sats just like that by a chat... something is not smelling good with this video. I post it just for fun.

I think that there are many people that will fall for this shit, because they "trust" technology that is said to be secure. But security is a process.

You might be right. I'm sure people who fall for it feel humiliated and don't talk about it. I'm wondering how often it is successful.

It's very humiliating, but it's useful to talk about it. As you see we've now uncovered a pattern because people talked about it, so thanks for doing that. Collaborative threat identification is extremely powerful.

many times unfortunately... You cannot imagine how many people are contacting me in private to tell me that they were scammed... is really sad, and I cannot do too much for them. Some of them I rescued right on time, but some of them was too late.
