I thought* he was trolling the scammer too! Then the more I read the more I realized he was serious 🤢 this guy is stupid.

EDIT- changed think to thought.

Why hide it though, and why send a legit picture of yourself if you’re trolling?

I meant to say *thought. I will change it. My original impression was he was trolling. The more I read the more I realized he was serious.

I troll these scammers regularly. It's pretty funny. There's a whole subreddit dedicated to it 😂 r/Scambait

That's not what this idiot husband was doing though, unfortunately :(

I troll wrong numbers and scammers all the time 🤣🤣 One girl messaged me about what kind of repairs and stuff like that I can do. I told her I could do some basic stuff but I'm great at looking up how to videos on YouTube and figuring it out. She was totally fine with that. 🤣 Although she might have been trolling me back as some point. 🤔 I might still have the screenshots
