Sparky-(Admin) 21,300 #1 Posted March 20, 2019 So Bob Maynard @rmaynard and I are Facebook friends. We don’t interact much on FB and have never used FB messenger to communicate but today a Bob Maynard imposter tried to talk me up. Not sure where this scam was going to lead, most likely a clickable link that would be loaded with some sort of virus. Of course I knew right off it was a scam so I tried to have a little fun with it. 1 2 9 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

953 nut 55,071 #5 Posted March 20, 2019 Had a car for sale on Auto Trader and someone who obviously was attempting to scam me via a pretend Paypal account. I forwarded it to Paypal and they said the internet address was from Russia. I played with them for a few days and then they got a bad attitude and quit! 1 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wallfish 16,984 #7 Posted March 20, 2019 LMAO too. That @rmaynard's real a pain in the @$$ isn't he? Always try to waste their time as much as possible if you can. It just saves someone else the hassle as the scammer just ends up with that much less time to spend doing it to someone else who may fall for it. 2 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lane Ranger 10,945 #10 Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) Yes I got one of those messenger messages too and thought NOT Bob MAYNARD.! Bob Maynard would post on Red Square first if he was looking for something or needed information! Edited March 21, 2019 by Lane Ranger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 15,427 #11 Posted March 21, 2019 So I'm working at my daughter's house yesterday putting in a new sliding door. She says to me "Hey Dad, your Facebook account has been hacked". My response was "how can that be? I rarely am on FB". She said her friend in New Jersey got an unusual message from me. So, long story short, I was hacked. My daughter changed my password and hopefully, all is right with the world again. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LengerichKA88 1,883 #12 Posted March 21, 2019 They create funds? Wonder how they go about it 🤔 last time I tried to “create funds”, the local prosecutor started talking about “counterfeiting” and “federal case” 🤷🏻♂️ Anyway, anyone wanna buy some freshly “created” $100 bills? Only $75 bucks each! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
