  • Do it. Scam the scammer back ❤️

    I got scammed last week by a guy on Craigslist. He sold me what I thought was a good working washing machine. He stayed with me for the first 5 minutes to make sure it
  • worked well enough before I paid him $400 cash. Then it stopped halfway through the rinse cycle. The thing didn't work.
  • So I message him, hey this washer isn't working. What gives? I look up videos and spend 2 hours trying to fix it myself. The machine is a piece of garbage. No response.
  • I'm ped that I got scammed. But then I find more of his Craigslist postings. This guy must have a warehouse of broken appliances waiting to scam people with.
  • I send him an email on one of my burner email accounts asking if he can deliver 2 hunky ol dryers to me. I'll pay extra! He responds immediately. I tell
  • him I'm about 40 miles away. Can he do it? Absolutely! I tell him to meet me in a lot at 3 pm, peak rush hour.
  • The next day goes by, and he asks if we're still on. Yeah! 2:50 pm rolls along and he says he's almost there. I tell him I'm running late. I get an email around
  • man driving a car
  • 3:10 pm: where are you? I tell him I'm so sorry, the traffic is terrible, I'm about 20 minutes out. 3:35 pm: almost here? I say I'm so so so sorry again. I ask if
  • he can pull the big ol hunky dryers out of his car so we can load them up faster, I'm almost there. He says he will. 3:45 pm: here yet?
  • His messages kept coming in. He sent me one last sweet note around 4:30 pm saying he was leaving now, thanks for wasting his time. Heading back into the sweet, sweet traffic.
  • I lost $400 but man!! It felt good to waste a scammer's time.
