Tech illiterate boomers (and gen X) that still think they live in a high trust society. One of my dad’s friends got into crypto. He asked me how to get into it so I taught him how to set up an account on an exchange. I stressed to a high degree how careful you have to be with any exchanges other than the onramp I suggested to him and that scammers are abound. A year later he comes to me to try and help get access to his funds (over 300k) that an exchange (some .vip domain that took the name of a legitimate site) was holding hostage from him.
I politely told him he was fucked and kinda felt bad but this site threw so many red flags when I went to it.

I’m glad I got scammed on RuneScape so much as a kid, really wisened me up to the fact that most people will scam you with some bullshit if given a chance. His bank is also retarded for allowing him to withdraw $500k with absolutely zero friction. Or even telling his wife. Now that I think about it, this shit is fake.

I like the part where after losing everything he borrows even more money to give to the scammer. Some people just aren't meant to have money.

It's slow as shit, but once your post says 100% it's been posted, even if your reply box stays on the screen and says there's an error.

Fucking well deserved. Imagine not being your own fucking bank. They worked their whole life, but they let others hold their money, save those other players used that money against him to get more money out of him. Piece of shit retards relied on a scam system and got what they deserved.
Why would I feel bad for these retards? Yes, stealing is bad, but all you crypto brotards are literally the equivalent of an ugly girl who fucks guys way out of her league and when she's 30 to 40, broke, ignored and single, she's mad, even though everyone told her she was ugly and the guys were just fucking her fun while her actual looksmatch was out there trying to get her the whole time. It's your own hubris in trying to get easy money and quick profits in a world where generating wealth actually takes real effort and production which you cunts don't want to exert or do.
I put a grand in crypto, it went up to 10k and I lost it to scammers on my computer. Guess what? I deserved it and learned my lesson. You have to keep your money and take personal responsibility for it. If you don't hold it, you don't own it.

He gave a 200 dollar super chat. Probably to some Trump cultist channel restreaming a live ramble-rant from the lying fat bastard.
Obviously the joke is. Trump would never see such a message. And he’s flushed the 200. Makes sense when you consider the average IQ of a Bitcoin lover.

Yes. Exactly this. Fuck them boomers. Honestly. They could be good people, but I can't see them as good people when they truly believe they can just have infinite money with no costs to anyone else. These faggots voted for money from their politicians, which was borrowed from future generations and then these fucking boomers acted like they did everything right and didn't do anything wrong, meanwhile their children are now wage slaves because the currency has been inflated, they can't afford a home, a car or even a life, but their parents keep gaslighting them about working hard and "back in my day" bullshit.

>>You can't scam an honest man
I fucking love that line, it goes so fucking hard. Young plebs will be like "omg of course you can scam him, a dishonest man scams honest men all the time", but if you really think about it, the truly honest man knows that money and wealth comes from hard work and production, real world service to others, and he would instantly know something is too good to be true and a scam simply because they know honest work and honest business can't generate those kinds of returns.
Based anon.

Add zoomers to that list. I know multiple who have been had by these scams.
300k is fucked up though. I hope one day they find one of these operations and truly rape them.
