You are all laughing, but I was just presented with an impossible captcha trying to login into my OpenAI account, that I pay $20/month for. To solve the captcha, I need to click the puzzle 80 (!) times, and if I make a mistake, I should start everything anew. That's totally not funny. Had to cancel the subscription. Anyway, Phind is faster and better quality.

#52The "do not redeem" video is the Kitboga's gift to humanity. Scamming old people out of their retirement is the worst thing someone can do. I have no empathy for those scammers.
I thought a lot of them don't even know they are running scams, and that is all coming down from the top. They are barely paid phone workers just doing scripts and doing what they are told just so they can feed their families.

#53I always wonder if Kitboga was influenced by comedian Phil Hendrie. I grew up listening to Phil on the radio and they have very similar styles. Love it, hilarious.

That doesn’t make it OK, but that is probably how they justify stealing other people’s money.

#56Can these people actually be this stupid? I am having a hard time believing it. I would expect scammers to be more aware of the possibility of deceitful behavior by others. Incredible if true, but hard to believe...
It's also basically what dealing with a fin tech startup is like, especially in the crypto adjacent space. Getting a hold of a person is basically impossible.

#58Earlier quoted context omitted.
He only gives scammers the QR code that leads into his gauntlet. Normal people shouldn't be stumbling into this, as it requires a fake QR code from a fake Bitcoin ATM receipt. This also lures the scammers in as they believe they will receive (someone else's) Bitcoin.
but if you had a sample qr code (or even just the basic url?) you could start trolling innocents, no?

#60Not much sympathy for these scammers but I do wonder how desperate some of them have to be to waste so much time on a couple hundred bitcoin max.
