  • I stumbled across a scammer from Nigeria who was sending out fake checks. I managed to convince him to let me in on his operation and then I sabotaged it!
    Don't accept fake checks and don't take jobs mailing them out either.

I once was able to retrieve a package for an elderly woman who sent an overnight package with thousands of dollars to a scammer, thankfully she told her son what she had done and came back the very next morning and I was able to get her money back and give the address to the postal inspectors. I wish I was able to do more and I’m grateful for all you do. Keep up the fight!

I think that whole time, he had been lying to friends and family about why he needed to borrow money, they all stopped talking to him afterward.

    I’ve been a mystery shopper for years with over a dozen clients worldwide. I received one of these checks that they asked me to use to buy gift cards from Walmart to “evaluate” their customer service. Of course I was supposed to immediately give them the gift card numbers, after which the check from them that I deposited would have bounced, leaving me high and dry. But I didn’t bite. I reported it to the authorities who wanted copies of everything. Idk what ended up happening. Keep up the good work!

      I was a secret shopper for a fast casual restaurant about 25 years ago. They sent me forms to use to evaluate, I would mail them and the receipt. and they'd send a check. They were based out of Lexington KY, it was 100% legit, and it was kind of fun. I don't think the restaurant ever caught on to me being a secret shopper. Hardest thing was timing time from completion of the order to when they gave me the tray (without being seen to use a stopwatch). But these are rare opportunities, and my only payment was a meal for one every couple weeks.

    The mules are not the victims ! They might don’t know the details of the scam but they definitely know it’s a scam. You signed up with them with no work contract and same did the mules. Which means they don’t pay income taxes . Some mules have been doing this for years and, when they get caught, they are considered to be victims.
    As independent contractors who work without work agreements, they still must file taxes quarterly. Every 3 months. None of the mules does it. Because they know exactly what they are doing. They are not the victims.

    This is fantastic work, although I believe that you should have left a more detailed letter explaining the whole scam, and an instruction to not text or call John Valdee about the replaced note and the lollipop. I bet you could get paid for this if you kept it up long enough, surely the money mules get paid for this kind of thing. Not only that, stealing from the scammers could really benefit the local community and international charities if you don't plan to keep the funds for yourself.
    Trying to get paid as a money mule without doing any of the illegal money mule work would be an absolutely fantastic series to watch. How long do you think you could retain the job before the scammer finds out? Would the scammer ever find out?

    My Uncle once “got a job” shipping merchandise to buyers on eBay that was originally purchased with stolen credit card numbers and shipped to his house. He was not only dumb enough to fall for the scam and think he got a job as an “internet shipper” (he never asked why he was re-shipping items that came to his house by UPS, FedEx and USPS from a domestic address back out to a domestic address) but once he figured out he wasn’t going to get paid he called his local TV News station and they did a news segment about a scam where you ship things out and you don’t get paid for it.. 🙄 Him and the news channel never touched on how the brand new merchandise arriving on his doorstep was originally purchased (stolen). This was like… 20 years ago when eBay was a new thing on the exciting “information super highway” 🤣
    To this day he acts smug and thinks he “caught them” by figuring out it was a scam and contacting the police… after re-shipping a bunch of stolen merchandise for like a month. 😂 Did I mention he was on TV ‘n stuff looking really smart? 🤓

      @@codex4046 - Yes, quite possibly. Unlike say a massive list of e-mail addresses which are worth relatively little to a scammer, a list of names with postal addresses of people who have (presumably) already shown some degree of falling for the scam is quite valuable. So it's certainly possible that the scammer might have one of those addresses that will report back to them, whether as an actual confederate, or as a potential scam victim who would still trust the scammer over the UA-camr's warning letter. Because gathering those names and postal addresses has taken a not insignificant amount of work for the scammer. So they don't want to risk the 'payroll employee' either not sending the letters at all, or sending the letters with warnings.
