I got people trying to scam me. They're very annoying. I like calling them out on their bullshit, or just saying "no thank you." What do you do about scams?
I think the most recent scam has been my continued life, but before that I got someone on Discord asking me if I want to commission them after posting suspicious .webp images with no obvious source.

One time I was carrying my groceries back to my car when an enterprising individual approached me with what he claimed to be a "life changing business opportunity"
However the longer I heard him out, the more the whole ordeal sounded like an elaborate ruse to get me to look at his cock

The fact that you use d**c**d means that you likely are plagued by the use of other such software that vendors to millions of third parties, and ...possibly.. retarded.
Scammers can get a lot of contact info on you just by using one of these services, but you didn't mention anything about them datamining you so that might not be
the issue. I would recommend giving fake credit card numbers or not talking to people at all in such a case. I can't really think of a time where I myself have been
scammed other than being forced to pay for an extremely overpriced drink at some places because I was parched.

I have a static IP >>3, I'm not afraid of them knowing my contact information.
I have actually been scammed in Europe, but it was on the behalf of a friend. Fun story. I hate Ukrainians with pigeons now.

Did you buy "luxury" watches from a guy in a trench coat? wwww

A friend of mine wanted to take some pictures of him holding trained pigeons this one Ukrainian had. I paid up, and then asked him to break the 50 euro bill I had into two 20s and a 10. He then gave me the 20 back... only to ask me for it back because "that's his price."
I would've decked him or sprinted away, but I was going to get paid back by the friend anyways, and I didn't want to end up in a French jail cell.
