So what’s up there?

So anyone else getting flooded by messages from obvious scammers? Trolling these idiots can be so much fun. It’s always the same shit too. “Soo whats up there” “got ure name from the member search here on Xbox cuz i was bored and lookin for new people to talk to. :)” “how old are u?” It’s like how -blam!-ing stupid do you think people are?

  • It's not that bad. Once you give them your social security number (whatever that is), address, and credit card information they are really friendly people.

    • I want to get another one of those bots so I can reply with the Obi-Wan high ground copypasta. In full.

    • It's really annoying because they're so obvious and I know that there are people that fall for it.

    • "Someone" once sent me, "Hey there sweetie." It turns out that if you responded to those bots with 0 gamerscore, your account gets stolen.

      • What is there to even scam someone for on this site? I keep getting friend requests from fake "gamer girl" accounts on xbox live. My phone gets about 20 robo calls and texts a day. The bots are slowly expanding their influence. How long until the AI apocalypse?

      • I’ve been getting messages from random people like that too. I just respond with “what’re you doing in my swamp?” And they usually don’t reply.
