Hello everyone,
I found this website searching for how to bait scammers, after I have watched YouTube videos about this subject.
First, I'm 16yo!
So i have a first question: is there a way to obtain scammer's email adresses to bait these? Because right now i don't receive much scam-mails in my inbox.
I read a lot about how to bait scammers.

Welcome here!
Always remember to bait safe. Use an emailaddress not linked to your personal information in any way.

To pick up lads you can sign up for the lad transit (it's in the help hints and tips section of the forum) or go to eaters sister site www.scamwarners.com, grab a format that appeals and pretend to reply to it from your baiting email address.

Consider signing up for a mentor, they can help you get started

Welcome to eater! Good advise already given by Linoline.

It's recommended you have a seperate email for harvesting scam emails (called a catcheraccount).

Mugu Guestbook is another resource for getting spam emails to your catcher account (but I can't recommend the Lad Transit enough)

Hello to all! It has been a long time since I last belonged to an Internet forum but here goes nothing. I hope to learn from reading about the scambaiting experiences here and have learned a bit from watching some of the more prominent scambaiters on YouTube. I particularly enjoy the comedic side of this pursuit and hope to inject some humour when I begin my first exchanges. Hope you are having a lovely day/night whenever and wherever you are.

Welcome to Eater! we are glad you are joining the fun here.

Please bait safely! This means not using any account (email or otherwise) that is connected to your real life or has your real information.

If you want assistance from an experienced member, you can sign up for the Mentoring program (see the links in my signature). This way you will be having fun safely before you know it.

It's also a good idea to read the Forum Rules if you haven't done so.

Hi 419ers. I used to dabble in scambaiting years ago, but I think my old account on here went by the wayside. I've got more free time these days and was looking to waste some scammers' time again. See you around!

Just as an FYI: Your old account should still be around, as inactive accounts are not removed.

Welcome back!

Hey Korpor!

Welcome to Eater. Glad you are joining the fun.

First and foremost: Please bait safely. This means not using any real life information when baiting (this includes emailaddresses, phones, social media accounts). Always use accounts that you have set up specifically for scambaiting.

If you want some assistance, you might consider signing up for Mentor (see my signature). A mentor can (and will) help you get set up and help you along your first steps in this fun hobby

Before you do anything, be sure to at least read the Forum Rules. Also, this thread contains very usefull information which will help you understand what we are about, and how you can start scambaiting.

Hello. I work for a large unnamed bank fraud in USA. My team is trying to find the best way to convince scammers to send us fake checks so we can pass on the info to the mail carrier services and possibly catch the actual scammer location while he or she is still active ( Dropping the checks in the mail). I think this community will be Abel to provide me with these methods. Thank you all for your hard work.

^^^ riiiiiiiight. Abel killed Cain btw. Welcome to Eater Mr. Unnamed Bank Fraud. Where do you want the scammers to send these fake checks? How many guymen are in your "team"? I think we can recommend a shipper that would be interested in providing the service you desire. Thank YOU for all YOUR hard work!

A Freudian slip, perhaps?

Hello BaiterTheP,

There is some skepticism expressed here as you can imagine -- while scammers do sometimes send fake checks, those involve some advanced skills. We'd like to get to know you a bit better first, so I do encourage you to read the FORUM RULES, and tell us a bit more about yourself and your plans first.

Hello,

I'm quite new to scambaiting.

I locate e-mail scammers by making them click on baited links.

Welcome, placeholder text! Er... I mean Lorem Ipsum!

We encourage you to take a look around and check out the forum rules and learn a bit about what we do. There are so many ways to bait scammers, and you'll find some very entertaining baits in our Published work area. We want to be sure you're baiting safely, and it can be a lot of fun to bait with a team as well. Come find your friends in here, and make some lads cry!

Hi everyone! I found this site a few years ago and browsed for a day, but moved on. Recently, my co-worker got caught up in a lot of love scams from Instagram, so it reminded me of the 419eaters!

I read all of Big X's thread with Archie about the church of the old gods in one day and died laughing the whole time.

I'm looking to start chatting with lads, wasting their time, and reporting bank accounts. Hopefully one day I will have a pyramid under Brother Zed's name.

(again) Welcome to Eater!

I'm sorry to hear what happened to your colleague. If you are planning on baiting those scammers: please don't. If you are emotionally invested in a bait, that can backfire. There are lots of other scammers outthere that need your attention! If you cant find any, head over to our siter site ScamWarners and take your pick!

I hope you are/plan on baiting safely: this means not using any name, account, phonenumber, email etc that can be linked to your real identity. This is very important.

If you want, you can also sign up for the mentoring program (check the links in my signature). This way you can get the help of an experienced member to get started baiting safely.

I'm looking forward to reading about your baits!

Currently I am reading the beginner's guide: https://forum.419eater.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=261698

I'll have to check out your mentor program! I'm not sure how much time I want to dedicate to this yet, so I may straightbait for a while until I get a feel for everything.
