Post by: fell on November 04, 2020, 05:25:17 AM
So here is the situation. You are in your home, there has been some trouble with (insert name of group) and you hear someone trying hard to break into your home.

Handguns) Your rifles are downstairs but you have have several options in handguns....so which one and why?
All Guns) You have access to everything you own...(maybe your just finished cleaning them) Which one and why ?

Remember this is at home.
Also which ONE (1) first. :D

It's just an unplanned donation to those less fortunate.  Go greet them at the door and help them select what will improve their lives.

Weird. Why would a bot be instructed to make this post though?

Scammers and spammers use BOTs to post seemingly innocuous comments in many forums at a time.  They may also use forum software tools to post the same comments on multiple forums simultaneously as a convenience.  Doesn't make them a BOT, but it does make them a mass cross-poster. 

They look for anyone on the forums in the market for pretty much anything, then contact the user privately to offer their product or make an offer to buy theirs, whichever way the forum member is looking to do business.

They may also post bogus links to sites that can steal your info, trick you into buying something not really available, etc.

Pretending to be a legit forum member and running up their post count helps make them look like a regular person.  EXCEPT ...

The posts are all in the same forum section:  First one:  General Discussion.

The posts are about things we in Hawaii probably aren't going to have much discussion over, like eating a wounded deer that wanders into your yard.

The user says he's in another state.

The posts are on multiple other forum sites under the same and different user ID, and using the exact same comments verbatim.  Googling the title or first line of text returns the entire post word-for-word on many sites.

Omnigun admitted to being scammed by this guy, losing $100 via PayPal.

So, we do have direct evidence, assuming Omni isn't lying motivated by his own secret agenda.   O0

Gotcha, thanks

I know a few people who have been scammed through emails or text messages and even on Facebook but never one like this. Interesting.
