Death Threat Scam

[signo_log]

Has anyone else received a violence / death threat scam texts and calls?
I received this text, followed by a series of phone calls from the same number.
These guys are very pushy and aggressive.

*#Im Tony member of Jalisco NG. I’m manager of those bitches you were bothering. I got all your info so if you don’t wanna end this with violence you better pay for waste my time %%


Searching online, it appears they track down your name and grab photos from your social media to intimidate you.

Another reason to never give ID to anyone, or e-transfers for whatever transactions, cash only. Hopefully it's nothing.
3:44 some good advice

It's a scam. Tell the guy you are scammer too and you are going to kill HIM if he doesn't send YOU money!

Just to clarify, I didn't fall for the scam and didn't give up anything to the scammer. Just wondering if this is a common scam now.

I'm wondering if it's coincidence that I messaged one of the numbers on leolist the night before (although there was no reply from the number) or perhaps it's a leolist scam.

I just ignored the texts and blocked the number. Anyways, if anyone else sees a similar text or receive such calls, just know it's a scam and don't be alarmed.

Speaking of scammers here's someone finding who the scammers are through meticulous sleuthing.

Scammer: Give us money Tony or else we do the violence
Tony: Maybe you should use the name people call me by. Fat Tony.
Scammer: Erm sorry sir

Big North American and European companies who "outsource" call center activities facilitate this kind of fraud as well as taking jobs from their own citizens...

Why pay for benefits and a pension I guess?

Another scam is the email or other message saying they planted malware and hacked your computers/phones camera and have video of you watching porn and doing dirty things like wanking etc and you have 3 days to pay them bitcoin or else they'll send the pics to everyone in your contact list. Same logic.

Some of us offer to pay them to share it now

Like that insanity wolf meme
Parents ask what fapping is
Show them, don't break eye contact.

I received the exact same text message from Tony after texting someone on LL. I appreciate you sharing I was tripping out

Rogers call center is in Bangalore India, I've noticed the scammers are not Scottish.

I tell them I'm friends with Frankie the Wop.

The actor who played Frankie the Wop eventually had a film made about him called Green Book.

I had this happen to me when I was texting some LeoList bitches. Tony Bologna from some cartel in France of all places, told me, to give me money for wasting his “bitches” time. Then he tried to send me the company my mobile is with and it was the wrong one . Tony Salami

Glad my post helped someone from second guessing themselves. They ended up sending a few more threating messages for a few days, then it messages stopped altogether, and i haven't thought about it since!
