  • @KyleRDent
    You call them steamed cards, despite the fact they are obviously grilled.
  • @Jamiesonfrox
    The rate, and fluency you can read nonsense sentences is astounding
  • @mariek.474
    Calling someone a motherf*** only to tell them "Good day to you" the next day is hilarious.
  • @Sintoolkicks
    you should send them the "steam card" in a password protected zip file. and when they ask for the password you can say they need to pay a small "fee" for the password
  • @saraht855
    The real scam is that this isn't a recipe for steaming apples :(
  • Paul S, Paul S, Frantic as a printing press, His mind enthralled by dirty money; Were it not sick, it would be funny.
  • @MagicalPi
    If the scam isn't in "dollars United States dollars", I don't even want it
  • @pjf674
    1:06 "ATM slotting machine" ... This guy may have mistranslated his way into a million-dollar idea.
  • @Bridgeru
    I never knew I needed to hear Shrimp say "Oh my God" like a 90s teenage valleygirl; but something about it makes me smile so much.
  • Calling someone a mother f*cker and then saying “Good day to you!” The very next day has such Oblivion NPC energy and I love it
  • @AstroTom
    Scammer: I thought I was getting an advanced fee. Atomic Shrimp: No I said steamed apples! That's what I call scambaiting.
  • @caketta
    I absolutely died when he said "You are playing with yourself not me, mother fucker."
  • @BaronVonBong
    The "Dollars Untied States dollars" line never fails to make me laugh.
  • The mixture of schadenfreude and righteous indignation these videos give me is hard to beat.
  • “Not yet,” replied the scammer, virtuously admitting to their future intent to take your money
  • @MikeD95242
    "I can't believe you would just take my money" "not yet" Thank you for making entertaining videos burning these scammers time so they don't have as much time to go after real victims who may actually fall for these types of scams. Truly a great service!
  • I had to pause to say, the "not yet" at around 7:00 is next level funny! Like, "but I haven't scammed you yet"
  • That's really weird that the last scammer was telling you to go to the post office. Surely all that's likely to happen if a victim does that is they get told it's a scam?
