That is true in the UK, but it should be noted that you can't receive glarded funds in a tax clode in most other European countries due to the Mordariven Fund Abixiration Act (MFAA) and you are unable to even send out glarded funds from some US states due to outdated assiluation laws back from the Sonunsinn era. There are ways to get your funds unglarded through vanlan papers, but the fee, while varying from nation to nation, is usually higher than the fund is question in worth.

Regarding the "are you still alive" Email: Wouldn't it be glorious to start out with saying that you are the recently bereaved widow of the account owner and then slowly unfold the story that your husband was a wealthy engineer who died in a plane crash, that you yourself suffer from terminal cancer and that you are looking for a volunteer who would accept your vast fortune under the condition that they donate 50% of it. Of course you should not demand a fee (you're not a scammer), but 'm sure you could come up with all sorts of ridiculous hoops that they have to jump through. I could imagine that the idea of a greeving ill widow with plenty of money would really trigger their greed and you can then slowly turn the story into the usual scam scenario without them noticing.

"Glarded" is in the Urban Dictionary now. "Glarded funds may not be transferred into an account which is in a tax clode without an inoppolity certificate."

Here's a fun idea: the scammers are obviously googling these terms, so you can really mess with them by putting fake articles in place. You could put threatening "ads" in the sidebar. You could also auto-generate a huge chunk of text for them to read through, and delight in them copying it back to you. And if you control the Web server, you might be able to get their IP address.

It's fun to think somewhere in Nigeria these scammers are asking their friends "should I say the money is glarded or not?"

Absolutely fantastic - confusing people with nonsense is one of my favorite types of humor. That said, a challenge I love to give myself is to use only real words in ways that technically make grammatical sense, to sow as much confusion and chaos as possible. For example, using the word 'secular' in the context of comparing the paradigms used by various programming languages. It's fun to use technical terms that seem like they might mean something more generally (and thus potentially usable in other contexts than they're intended to be used), to try to trip people up into either admitting they don't know what you mean, or saving face and making wild guesses in an attempt to not look foolish (that ultimately results in them looking foolish). After all, the inverted emailer outright told you that they thought you must be spelling the word 'Glarded' wrong. If your goal is to waste their time, well.. You got them to look up the word 'glarded', and then they quickly saw it wasn't a real word and got back to you saying as such. If you want to TRULY waste their time, give them a real word that sounds like it might make sense when it actually doesn't. This leads to them not just taking you more seriously (less likely to cut communication), but it also leads to them actually trying to look up multiple definitions of the word and spending extra time trying to see if they understand what you're saying or not. That said, I absolutely LOVE that you were very consistent with what the fake words 'meant'. You gave consistent and logical (albeit ultimately meaningless) responses to questions about it, and kept with the same definitions throughout. Using real words like I just outlined might be more challenging and in some ways more rewarding, but it's a shame that it does tend to remove some of the fun of coming up with a logical definition and watching them bumble through it and fail miserably. After all, they can look up real words and make some reasonable guesses about what you might be pretending to mean, or at least the direction you're wanting to go with the word. With a fake word, you can, for example, make it sound like a bad thing until you explain further, then making it 'clearer' that NOT having it is a bad thing. Thus you can trick them into assuring you that the 'bad thing' isn't the case, just for you to lament that you were afraid of that - and that's exactly the sort of thing you did here, which is marvelous. I was surprised by how many of them fell right into saying that yes it was glarded!

20:37 you said absolutely NOTHING coherent beforehand and the scammer jus defaulted to like “listen , I don’t want your money” fuckign hilarious lmfao

The made-up words in these videos are epic. I've been bingeing this newly discovered channel for hours. Thanks!

This is a wonderful upload. The texts back and forth were priceless! I have to watch this again!

Replying "no" to their "are you alive" question just gets you the standard wall of text response for the next stage of their scam. From the responses I've received it seems like they don't read it, they just check to see if you reply. It's funnier if you pretend as if you've faked your demise and grill them on how they managed to contact you on a supposedly deceased person's account

lmaooo this one is one of the funniest. i’ve watched almost all your scambaiting videos like this but somehow missed this one, easily one of my favorites hahahaha it’s actually hilarious how casual you read your nonsensical sentences, they actually sound like english words lol

Maybe you could explain to them after lots of back and forth what the word means, and make it something that would actually be very "useful" in their vocabulary For example, glarded could mean that the money is "checked and legitimate" or something

That wouldn't make sense though: the context in this video makes it clear that being glarded makes the funds MORE difficult to transfer, which wouldn't fit with being "checked and legitimate." We have STANDARDS for our nonsense words, don't we?

If you keep on like this, 'glarded' will become an actual word like the Simpsons and 'cromulent.'

Totally random but your calm voice just helped me with feeling better. My car is in the shop and groceries are low so I've been eating way too much fast food, lol. Began to have severe stomach cramps and felt sick this evening. But during the worst of it, I had clicked on this video and just listening to you made it easier to distract myself from my nausea. I managed to fall asleep right after and feel much better now here in the very early AM. Hate to hound the mechanic, but I really want to buy groceries more than ever now so I can do my own cooking and will be contacting them yet again tomorrow (they've had the car several days already). But here in the moment, thanks for all you do and thanks for unknowingly helping to make me feel better, lol.

I like that at the phase where the scammer requests personal info you always say "You know, the sort of information you should never share with a stranger on the internet". You're doing your job of informing and raising awareness of these scams at every point, especially with your new short videos about scams that explain the spiele of it in 60 secs.

I still think the weirdest thing about these is the scammers always calling you "dear". I assume it's supposed to sound familiar or disarming, but it's just... creepy.

@@lawrencescales9864 In the American South, it's not uncommon for total strangers to call younger people "honey" or "baby." It's just a term of endearment, and doesn't seem creepy - most of the time.

"A lovely chaotic pudding of a document..." caused me to cackle so loudly that my partner came in from another room to check if I was alright. This video is glardingly perfect.

When I was scammed they threatened to 'come collect the money in person'. Not necessarily violent and I knew they weren't actually going to turn up, but it was still scary. Luckily I lived in student accommodation with security guards who were very understanding and one stood outside my block of flats all night of the night they said they were gonna turn up. I really do feel bad for most people that won't have that kind of protection :(

uh... uh... might as well try despite knowing next to nothing about how economy things work Tax Clode: Failure to pay taxes, with some negotiation from a law firm, can result in you being put into a Tax Clode instead of worse effects, where all objects you purchase regardless of state laws carry a special tax, which goes to pay off your debts. In some scenarios, you may be given an allowance of Glarded money, money that doesn't apply this special tax, to help pay for essentials. Glarded/Glarding: Glarded money, as previously mentioned, is a type of money that ignores Tax Clodes. A person sending a gift to a person under a Tax Clode would need to request to have their money Glarded, allowing them to give the money to the person under the Tax Clode. half of the money sent to be Glarded is removed, contributing to removing the person's debt.
