Have we ever had an ex-lad as a member (and on our side)?

If so, and they were truly on our side, they'd have some very valuable insight. They'd know exactly what was most likely to work and what wasn't, they could figure out what was happening behind the scenes at any given time, etc.

Not willingly :twisted:

Several of our baiters are wonderful at playing lads themselves, and have been able to get scammers to confess to all sorts of things, but I don't believe I've ever seen a reformed lad. I've seen lads "confess" that they are scammers but then turn into beggars as yet another ploy to separate victims from their money. I personally would not trust a lad who claims to have seen the light.

There have been many victims who told their stories on our sister site, Scamwarners. Unfortunately some things "work" because people are kind hearted, or they fall in love with a puppy photo, or they want to help a stranger in need, or they are lonely. For every scam there seems to be a victim, and it's just a matter of time. Most scammers use their "format" on thousands of people before they get someone to "bite", so I'm not entirely sure the scammers fully realize why it works.

I'm sure others will chime in, but the bottom line is: nope.

I wouldn't trust them either, at least not until they proved themselves to be trustworthy over a LONG period. I'm also not sure what would bring about such a change in philosophy.

There must be at least some lads who have had an epiphany of sorts, though. I'm sure the number is greater than zero. How much more is tough to say.

And when I said likely to work, I meant from our POV. Which modalities will rope them in and which ones will just make them twig, for example.

I had a kid, a university student, fall apart on me during a romance scam out of guilt. He was from Ghana. I felt sorry for him and offered to have him work for me. My idea was that I would pay him to perform certain services for me related to scambaiting. I removed the need for trust by giving him tasks such as getting addresses of and taking pictures of the cyber cafes or whatever where the scammers were hanging out and I would pay him only on delivery. He also had to agree to stop scamming. Well, he never delivered, not even simple things. Beyond just being criminals these guys as unbelievably lazy.

One of my earlier baits, the Ukrainian Widow bait (check viewtopic.php?t=4578 for complete story) resulted in a confession from the lad behind the mess. I am not sure what he is doing nowadays, but he has provided me with translations of pidgin/Yoruba, and appears to have a certain amount of respect for me after what occurred between us. Would I trust him with my life or money? Maybe not ;) but at least I can rely on him for translations and Nigerian news I can get nowhere else.

Edit: Hi mods. Just realized I unintentionally replied to a necro-ed thread. My apologies :oops:

Epiphany in the "Don't give up the day job" sense, possibly. Turning over a new leaf? No.
is always Good when you have the zeal to be a hitwoman when you out of school,it makes you bold and reall and it makes you more high than any other of your friend.
This is definitely why you will remain and die in poverty, ignorant of good things and easy acknowledgment of bad things and words. Shame on you, you wicked generation children.
