Just so there are no mistakes with labels, I made sure you knew who the good guys are.<\/p>\n

There is a team of guys at Trilogy Media that scam the scammers. They employ various tricks to frustrate people running scams on vulnerable people. Among the techniques: glitter bombs<\/a>, releasing cockroaches, and tying up the phone call for 30-40 minutes giving scammers the run-around.<\/p>\n

The “Lawnmower” video was hilarious. See it here<\/a>.\u00a0 The scammer gets irate and admits he is a scammer.<\/p>\n

It took several minutes for someone to notice the first cockroach scurrying across the carpet of Ansh Info Solutions, a call center in Kolkata, India, one day in April 2022. A worker covering the phones spotted the insect and jumped up from their desk chair. A second cockroach appeared, and another phone operator ripped off their headset and ran towards the nearest conference room. One by one, workers stood up and peered over their cubicle dividers to see what had caused the commotion. Unbeknownst to them, a black metal box had been hidden under a row of desks, brimming with dozens of live roaches.<\/p>\n

[then…]<\/p>\n

From the hotel, the YouTubers coordinated the next phase of their assault. They dispatched a messenger to the office to deliver a concealed glitter bomb. With suspicions already high, workers took the large, unopened package to a garage, slowly opening it while trying to keep their distance. Hidden cameras inside captured their reactions as a siren went off and a pound of glitter went flying into the air. In a final joke, the box\u2019s return address said the sender was the FBI.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Although I admire what they do, I think they are legally not able to claim they are FBI.\u00a0 It’s fun and seems to scratch that itch that we all have when it comes to getting even with scammers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
