Getting started with scambaiting! - A Guide
Hello! So you want to get into Scambaiting but I’m guessing you don’t really know where to start ey? Well, welcome to my little guide to help you get started with scambaiting! Scambaiting needs to be taken seriously as scammers may try and use your own information against you so always make sure to never give a scammer any of your real information, let them on your real PC, or call them with your real phone number (This includes using *67).
4. Now that you have a setup for scambaiting you are going to need numbers to call! The obvious best place to get numbers is here on TSU, haha but there are some other ways of finding scammers.
http://www.nomorobo.com/lookup and https://lookup.robokiller.com/ are apps that block spammers and scammers but luckily they post these numbers publicly which allows Scambaiters like us to go through these number and find scammers to call, these sites get thousands of new numbers each day which means it’s an awesome source for finding scammer numbers.
Also looking up “AOL support number” or “Microsoft tech support 24/7” or google and putting the results to the last week or 24hrs may give you some scammer sites to find.
Now for finding popup scammers, the best way is by typing typosquatted domains over and over until one comes up like in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfXYtXdSqDU 432.
The video is a couple of years old now but the idea is the same, here is an updated list of typosquatted domains: List of typosquatted domains 3/25/20 (Find popups).
As for finding typosquatted domains Dnstwist is a good tool to find registered misspelled domains and testing them for popups, here is a video on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ne8SPEoDe8o.
I hope this little guide to getting started is helpful! Remember to NEVER give scammers your personal information and also that not everyone who sounds a certain way is a scammer, make sure you have some sort of evidence or proof they are scammers so you don’t harass innocent people, if you need any help getting started, feel free to DM me, but other than that have fun baiting!
- You will need to be able to safely call scammers, https://voice.google.com/ 1.9k and https://www.textnow.com 1.2k are both free services that will assign you a phone number that you can use to call and receive calls from scammers.
- You will need a VM for baiting scammers, here are tutorials for creating a VM with VMware and Virtualbox - VMware: How to make a VM with VMware Workstation pro 15! Virtualbox: How to make a VM with Virtualbox . For both of these tutorials you can really use any version of windows you want, actually setting up the VM should be the same. Here is how you can have your VM match your real computer system info to help stop scammers from detecting the fact that it is a VM: How to make a VMware Virtual Machine match host system info (VMware only).
- VPNs! So since scammers will be going onto your VM it’s best to run a VPN on your host PC to hide your real IP address from scammers. Here are some VPNs We recommend:
