jeepwm69 7,420 Posted December 31, 2020 I've said it before, but will repeat.... If these scumbags put 1/2 the effort into making an honest living, as they do trying to scam people, they'll probably be legitimately well off! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was easy. If they would have kept going I could have just ignored them. Also I unfriended the fake account, so that stopped the messages. And really, they are looking to make the scam work with minimal effort, so they are not going to keep going past a certain point. THIS scam, anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Social/Citizen says it all. those at the top/those at the bottom. not necessarily political, in the sense that Charlie Manson was a fanatic, an those that followed him were stuck in a world that was fanaticism. following a loony-toon.
