Paying back scammers

[Powerhouse9]

I was wondering if anybody has emailed a proven scammer with a computer virus. Sounds like a start and something simple. Especially for those hard to reach scam artists, your thoughts bros...

sending a virus wouldnt satisfy me nearly enough if i got scammed... ahem

In reality, pussy scammers will usually use new accounts....and a virus is not a major set back...Just get their addy and show up at their door one day, make sure you get it on tape!

They would have to be so beyond brainless and stupid that it is near impossible. How often do you open spam and click on files at whim? I NEVER do.

Without access to thier IP address there is not much that I think you could do, without making yourself a felon if caught.

Sending a virus deliberately is a felony.

Is it now? Wow, I'm not up on computer crime law, but they sure are changing things. As an example, besides the obvious intent to destroy property, you can be labled a hacker for things as stupid as stealing software from a store, physically.

It just seems rather pointless, unless you know your shit seriously I think you can somewhat forget about getting back at someone over the computer via destroying thier machine. Simply sending a file to someone, would have to involve some pretty nice social engineering (a reason for them to activate the file) and a very stupid target. If they were using a known email client like an older Outlook Express then your job would be easier, but over secure email its not going to be so easy.

I wouldn't say that these are things I have not though about, I've been scammed too, but I believe in my own personal safety over trying to settle a score that could land me in jail over something stupid. If I was one of the persons who lost a grand or more, who knows... You would spend your days, maximal hours each day, trying to figure a way to get back at this person, and frankly it would eat me up and just be generally unhealthy.

For someone that sits at thier computer 18 hours a day for the last 12 years, then sure, go at it. For the casual person, forget it.

I agree, I prefer more drastic measures!!!!!!

 

[semigod]

a virus would not be of much help... maybe a small bug that will install itself on the scammer's pc and transmit back some usefull information would be better. This way we could find out where exactly he's located and then take more drastic measures

the problem is who has the programming knowledge to write a program like that ??

 

[Powerhouse9]

good idea semigod, and what I am saying with the virus is its better than nothing. At least give them a setback of some sort.

 

[GOON]

how can i go about sending a viris?

 

[semigod]

mayeb we can subscribe their email address to all the porn sites we can find! lol

this way they will be flooded with porn and they won't be able to scam another bro.

I agree, I prefer more drastic measures!!!!!!

Now, i'm pretty sure THAT is a felony.

C-ditty

i was thinking about what i would do if i had someone who scammed me at my mercy. it would be cool to soak an 18g pin in some piss or something real dirty for a couple days, then catch him and put the pin on a syringe, bang it on the cement to dull it and load some gasoline in it and shoot the scammer with it, somewhere like the abs or neck.

If you think about......99% of the stuff we talk about on here is a felony.

I am curious as to wheather or not anyone has ever actually caught a smammer and done something about it.

 

[Sinistar]

i read on an anarchy handbook off soulseek tha theres a nicotine based pesticide that will kill in 30seconds. they even have a delivery method. of course, a good wind and your dead too.

 

[Powerhouse9]

I would like to tie them to the hood of my car naked and bent over and drive them through a corn field doing 50mph.
or
I would like to knock out all their teeth and inject synthol into their lips and put them in the gay section of a prison.

any other ideas bros?

Bro send your virus, what the hell is he gonna do, turn you over to the authorities? He scammed you remember?!

 

[nekrawulf]

Good point. The scammer will have to suck it up and take it like a man (for once in his life).
