Online scams these days have become very common, and the scammers are using new ways to trick people. They first pay them a little amount and then ask them to pay so they can continue winning. It happens through social media websites, WhatsApp, or other mediums where they show you easy ways of earning money. Whereas the scammers are smart, few people are smarter than these people, and I had a fun conversation with them, which happened with one Reddit user. 

A Reddit user who goes by the name “Unfair-Manager-458” posted the funny conversation that he had with the scammer that left everyone laughing. 

At the start of the conversation, the scammer gave the Reddit user a task for which he would get ₹1,500. Once he sends the money and thinks that the user is falling into the trap, they start sending him more tasks for more money, but the Redditor asks for the money for completed tasks. And when the user didn’t get the money, he started threatening the scammer with black magic.

Check out the viral post:

And the user also sends him some images of them performing black magic and warns them that if they don’t send the money, the user will do black magic, which can lead to hair loss and might turn them into a lizard. And the user also sends the scammer a picture of a lizard.

The post has gotten more than 600 upvotes on the internet, and the numbers are strictly increasing as the post goes viral. 

People in the comment section shared reactions to the conversation. 

User’s reactions to the viral Reddit post:

“Please teach me some black magic things. I got scammed, and I want vengeance on the scammer.”

“Your account may be kept on hold/freeze if you recieved money from scammers. The money they sent you was mostly by scamming people. If the previous victim filed a police case then the account received that money and the accounts money sent from scammers account will be put on freeze by police. Be careful if you are doing this.”

“Yes, do these scammers not fear that they can be tracked by UPI. If I ever do scam I would receive gift card with vpn and fake ids.”

“I was wondering one thing, like, when we get these messages from these illiterate scammers and we know that it's a scam and we have a subreddit set for that, do scammers also realize that now that the person sends black magic or whatever images, they are not going to fall for the scam and do they also have a subreddit where they laugh on our black magic messages?”

“That makes you a scammer too.”

“I bet he checked his hair and will be paranoid if he feels a few hair fall.”
