Why you don't use your real phone number with a scammer

If a scammer wants to get revenge on you, they can put your phone number in a scam email and spam it to the world.

Then you get hundreds of calls to your phone number. And then tens of voice messages like this.

Some voice messages I got: (transcripts)

“Get a job. Hello get his job.”

“Hello. I’m trying to reach the Social Security Administration.”

“Hello. I’m calling about myself security here. Got a case ID number of 9903-330u. About my suspension on my Social Security to criminal activities. I have no idea what’s going on here. Need to call me back.”

“f*** you jack ass mother f****** son of a bitching b****. f****** scamming a******. Oh, yeah dumbass.”

“You dumb f****** mother f****** jackass b**** scamming a******. I want to get some f****** stupid. dumbass”

This was in response to baiting an SSN scammer earlier today.
