They troll scammers and fraudsters in their videos, exposing their schemes. Part vigilantes and part entertainers, scambaiters walk a fine line between documentation and interference with larger covert operations.

I love #ScamBaiters It's a fascinating genre to watch. I think #JimBrowning has some of the best stuff out there. #Kitboga was my first and his stuff is still enjoyable. #AtomicShrimp was so enjoyable I watch his non scam stuff.

Sporadically I check out #ScammerPayback, #RinoaPoison, and a few others randomly.

But #TrilogyMedia is so up and down. They're such bullies. And then they started predator hunting and it just feels like they're getting worse.

RIP Twitter. You were fun while you lasted, but now I’m hard core mastodon forever I think. Just need somebody who’s in the community to make an instance for #Scambaiters and we’ll be all set. Also, I’m super curious to see how getting rid of third party clients translates into migrations over here. We shall see.
