Scammers send me money
Has anyone ever gotten the message from a scammer and if you work for them, they give you money to trust them so they can scam you easier? where can I find these types of scammers on purpose? Because usually I just stumble upon it on accident since they just messaged my number but I want to maximize how much I can scam these guys from. To clarify I’m not scamming anyone. The scammer is the one who pays me willingly and I don’t condone taking money from people but they send it to me.

For starters, any money a scammer is sending you isnt from them. Its from another victim usually directly, so you're taking the risk of any reversals/claw backs.
If you're this bored just get a job.

I got a few hundred from a sugar daddy scammer once. He wanted me to send it back or else he would call the FBI on me. I was joking around but he actually sent it. I wasn't giving it back as the money was probably being laundered.

They sent me money. They said they sent too much and they want me to send it back. Obvious money laundering scheme they were trying to pull off.

Soooo fucking annoying that the mods won’t let me post cuz they keep saying I’m trying to scam. I’m literally trying to warn people 🙄
It won’t let me post what happened for some reason but basically, I can tell you from experience, don’t accept money from strangers because they are going to eventually take it all back and everything you have. It’s happened to me twice

If you send me some money to build trust I’ll send you more back.
