It does work. I did the same thing. It was someone pretending to be the IRS wanting me to pay back taxes in Apple gift cards. I told them I would go to the store, buy the cards and call them back. The gave me their number, I spent a few minutes writing a quick and dirty program to repeatedly call them back. I got a few laughs at them yelling at me to stop calling. After a few hours I was getting the message the number was out of service. While I was tying up their line, that was fewer people they could scam.
@zippy257@Rainmaker1973 I did the exact same thing a few years ago, minus the music, but I verified the number was not spoofed before I set my program loose on them. In the end they disconnected that number.
I did almost the same thing years ago. Motivated by a IRS spam caller wanting fake back taxes paid by Apple gift cards. I pulled out an old dialup modem, wrote a quick program and ran the call back program on repeat. After many hours, I got the message the number was no longer in service. Every call my program made that they answered kept them from scamming someone else.
You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”
Someone who’s misdirected attempts to punish someone else by punishing themselves. They disfigure themselves incorrectly thinking this is actually hurting someone who obviously doesn’t care about them, or they would have stopped this self destructive behavior before it got this far.
As usual @iamNickPeterson has made an epic video about today’s absurd world. He never fails to find the dry sense of humor in the crazy leftist’s antics. Thank you Nick for helping me laugh when I want to cry over the insanity of it all.
@MargoinWNC Every time oprah speaks, the world becomes a little dumber. It’s mind boggling how she tries to gaslight her cult followers, and they actually believe her 🐂💩
They have no dignity to start. They are happy to leach of hardworking citizens. Beggars can’t be choosers. They can eat what they are given even if that is a MRE. If a MRE is good enough for soldiers risking their lives for their country and the leaches, the leaches can eat tge same food.
