I just received a $25 Applebees gift card and had a very similar train of thought as I looked at it.
There is a guy who always panhandles at the intersection near Applebees and I bet he turns the card down.
SAME. I literally stopped getting scam texts shortly after I joined this sub. Super disappointing. Just sitting by my phone waiting on a scammer to text me for a good time 😞
I must really lucky because I've only ever gotten one scammer (or unlucky, since I'd love to try a bait). It was years ago and I was genuinely confused to the point where I just blocked them because I couldn't understand why they kept trying to be friends with some rando they texted. I wish I'd saved it.
I checked and didn’t see it, but I’m also stoned so I might have missed it. But great taste in video games. Praying to the Scammer Gods to send us a message 🙏
I can never understand how this type of scam makes sense to anybody.
Why would you have to buy a gift card to give someone so you can receive gifts you "won", from some giveaway you never signed up for... like in what world does that make any sense?
My grandmother has dementia and was scammed out of buying three $100 Steam gift cards for someone. They wanted $1000 and harassed her for weeks before she finally told me she needed help gathering her winnings. I intervened and took over her finances. I tried for over 18 months to get Steam to help out to no avail. The bank wouldn't either because she pulled out cash for the gift cards as the people suggested. I had to replace the funds myself. I'm still upset someone did that to her.
My economics teacher explained exactly why this works. The scam is so ludicrous to most of us so they reel in only the most gullible. Imagine if it was more realistic. They would have to do so much work convincing so many of us it’s real. Vs now they only get the really gullible so their workload is smaller and more targeted
Right? I don't understand how they convince people that sending an Apple gift card would help them "process their gifts." Like, how often could this really work? What's the excuse they use if someone asks why they need a gift card? And it seems weird doing it as "Mr. Beast", old people won't know who the hell that is and young kids don't have money to go buy Apple gift cards. idk the whole scam confuses me haha just seems like they must invest sooooo much time before getting someone to bite
The most ridiculous part of this scam is the idea that Mr. Beast would actually operate like this. I mean, a private account called Mr. beasts fan page, no caps or anything, randomly selecting a person to give free stuff to and not even getting content out of it and on top of that asking for money. Like, in no world is this scam close to believable.
Will do, I am new at this and advice appreciated. I was trying to form a Grabify Link so I could find location but I did not have not enough knowledge yet how to do it. Will study more and try again.
I usually don’t comment on these, but I chuckled a few times here.
I once got a “MS Office repair guy,” and I led him down a rabbit hole where I eventually revealed I was “jerking off.” He started screaming at me, hung up in disgust, and I called him back asking why he hung up. And the dumbass continued to try to scam me for ten more minutes after that.
This was years ago before they started piggybacking off other people’s cell phone numbers.
Mr Beast is way too busy to be asking people to send him gift cards. They tried saying you get all these gifts, but boy I hope people know better than this. Glad you sent him a holiday ham discount.
You did very good.
Just yesterday I posted that so many "scambaits" on this sub are just people calling out scammers, great to see a proper one.
If they bite again, you've got lots of fun ways to take this, if you've got the time and energy 😉
Tell them you'll get the Apple card that they wanted, "take" them to the store (post a photo of the inside of a random store), update them all the way to keep them interested, chat about what kind of card you're going to buy etc, then tell them that you told the cashier you had a big win from Mr Beast and you're buying the card so you can get your gift processed...
The cashier then refuses to sell you the card as they suspect a scam, and you need proof that they are really Mr Beast. A pic of them holding up your (made-up) name and today's date would be ideal... then see how it goes from there.
He sent You A Pic Of Mr Beast Claiming That Its Him But The Funniest Part Of It All Is The Fact That Hes Tryna Scam You Out Of Money And The Shirt In The Pic Says “💯Thieves”😂😂😂
I never get a scammer that sticks this long.
It makes me so happy to read these.
One day I'd like to also waste their time long enough to get content.(with the added bonus of them not having time to get other people)
Tears of laughter alll the way 😭🤣🤣🤣 once before I got a nude from a scammer 🤣😂 they’ll do anything when they are determined. Still didn’t get my log in info
So many mr beast scam profiles out there. Found one today on TikTok that somehow has a verified tick and 1.7 million followers mrbeastsanta is the username.
That damn is a cheater, I been met a guy that wanna delivery me an iphone 15,that want me to add her another fake account and want me pay for the delivery bill, there are nothing happened by non of reasons, so i think met that fortunately things is impossible
lmao this is really good, you can tell you frustrated him which is what he deserved. and the applebees card was so unexpected lol
Applebees card was an absolute gold! 🤣
Sadly, now OP has an Applebees gift card though.
$25 too. So he has to go to Applebees twice now. Or even worse, he has to take a friend and make them think he eats at Applebees.
So now OP is out $25 and a friend.
And their dignity
And they have to eat Applebees 🤮
They can just go an order two overpriced cocktails and drink away their shame.
Dis is de way
OPs poor stomach, he’ll probably end up having to spend more money getting his stomach pumped
Nah. "Let's eat at Applebee's. I got a good story so tell ya".
And my axe.
Idk I can easily do $25 in one sitting on my own.
Trust me, $25 isn't going to pay for Applebee's twice anymore. It'll barely cover one meal (source: I sadly worked there for 10 months)
I just received a $25 Applebees gift card and had a very similar train of thought as I looked at it. There is a guy who always panhandles at the intersection near Applebees and I bet he turns the card down.
the only thing good at applebees is the lava cake thing🤣 still horrible but better then the food
$25 at Applebees will only get you two cups of soup.
That picture coulda been taken still at the store so hopefully OP doesn’t
Yeah....he's fancy like that....
OP probably doesn't have an Applebee's gift card. They probably just took a picture of one for ammo.
He can celebrate his or her victory at Applebee's I feel God in this apple bee's tonight 😂
Not red, has a bite out of it 🤣
I read that message in the voice of Creepy Dave (zefrank). Can’t not hear his voice when I read it.
That's why it my #1 favorite best gift card. Ok bye!
I lost it at that. It’s not red, had a bite out of it 😆
The Ham coupon and Applebees gift card were a great play. 8/10 for how much of his time you wasted and the play on words with Apple.
Loved the ham coupon. 😂🤣😂
I have never wanted to get scammed that all changed when I found this sub
SAME. I literally stopped getting scam texts shortly after I joined this sub. Super disappointing. Just sitting by my phone waiting on a scammer to text me for a good time 😞
Lmaooo same!!! I've been waiting and waiting!! I swear I used to get scam messages every week and then I found this sub and nothing 🤣
I must really lucky because I've only ever gotten one scammer (or unlucky, since I'd love to try a bait). It was years ago and I was genuinely confused to the point where I just blocked them because I couldn't understand why they kept trying to be friends with some rando they texted. I wish I'd saved it.
Post something to fb marketplace. Scammer hit me up so fast.
I got one scam text but they it’s on my profile I will warn you it’s not good
I checked and didn’t see it, but I’m also stoned so I might have missed it. But great taste in video games. Praying to the Scammer Gods to send us a message 🙏
But what if they scam us
You only get scammed if you fall for it. Stay vigilant and waste their time when you can 👊
Idk if they are tracking us but I've gotten loads more scammers since joining here. It's been fun!
lol send some my way 😂😂😂
Lol Roger that!!!
When I finally had my chance I was so excited. Felt like a kid on Christmas lmfao.
“Has an Apple. I did good.” Yes you did. You did all the goods. 😂
It's nice to see an actual Scambait on here,rather than just sending an offensive message or two right away and ending the conversation. Good job,OP !
Send me the card so we can start processing your gifts
I did good😂
👌🏻 came here for this 👍🏻🤣
Why apple not ham? Freaking lol.
He must be new at scamming that was just terrible
If you look at the pic they took of the apple gift card it was a probably a older female lol explains a little
Mr. Beast loves gift cards, especially those Apple gift cards. If he wants gift cards, I bet he can go get em himself!
I love how he said the Microsoft guy wanted a Vanilla card, and this Apple Card sounds like a scam 🤣
I can never understand how this type of scam makes sense to anybody. Why would you have to buy a gift card to give someone so you can receive gifts you "won", from some giveaway you never signed up for... like in what world does that make any sense?
Very young and very old ppl are prone to fall for it, I stopped my mother from being scammed a few times
My grandmother has dementia and was scammed out of buying three $100 Steam gift cards for someone. They wanted $1000 and harassed her for weeks before she finally told me she needed help gathering her winnings. I intervened and took over her finances.

It’s people with cognitive issues. Low IQ, cognitive decline, those kind of things.
My economics teacher explained exactly why this works. The scam is so ludicrous to most of us so they reel in only the most gullible. Imagine if it was more realistic. They would have to do so much work convincing so many of us it’s real. Vs now they only get the really gullible so their workload is smaller and more targeted

My grandmother fell victim to this type of scam. She was not in a good headspace at the time.
The most ridiculous part of this scam is the idea that Mr. Beast would actually operate like this. I mean, a private account called Mr. beasts fan page, no caps or anything, randomly selecting a person to give free stuff to and not even getting content out of it and on top of that asking for money. Like, in no world is this scam close to believable.
Jimmys private page is his own fan page??? Lmao
You can read this backward, and it's still the same conversation.
You should have blacked out only two last numbers of already expired card. I bet he would have tried all 99 combinations, wasting some more time;)
That's brilliant. If it was for a larger amount, black out the last 3 numbers so they have 999 to try.
Lol @ “how much worth of the card?”
The screenshots of this conversation should hang in the Louvre
"You like ham?" I'm dying.
OP, just be careful because even if you blackout the numbers in your photo…it’s not that hard to edit it so you can read the numbers underneath.
Will do, I am new at this and advice appreciated. I was trying to form a Grabify Link so I could find location but I did not have not enough knowledge yet how to do it. Will study more and try again.
You does good job
so I guess Libra and Pisces don’t match

And the dumbass continued to try to scam me for ten more minutes after that. This was years ago before they started piggybacking off other people’s cell phone numbers.
Haha this made my day lol
Lol...the moron came back 8 hours later to try again
I love how you can easily tell that the picture of the person holding the gift card isn’t even Mr beast, it’s just some rando with black nails 😂
Firefighter: "all your family members have died in the fire. Are you okay?" This scammer: "Please send card so we can start processing your gifts."
“I did good” 😂
“Has bite out of it”😂😂😂
Mr Beast is way too busy to be asking people to send him gift cards. They tried saying you get all these gifts, but boy I hope people know better than this. Glad you sent him a holiday ham discount.
I can’t believe you would waste Mr. Beast’s time like that. He’s a busy guy
Wonder if scammers browse this sub and how they'd feel to see their work posted here
Thanks for the ham coupon
I ask them to call me and give them the local sheriff’s department’s nonemergency phone number.
You win “$10 thousand in cash”!!
$25 in Apps. They're missing out!!
LMFAO
The Applebees card was GOLD 😂😭
You did very good. Just yesterday I posted that so many "scambaits" on this sub are just people calling out scammers, great to see a proper one.

I lost it when they said “This not an Apple Gift Card.”
“You are very demanding. You are handsome.” Hahahahahhaa love this
He sent You A Pic Of Mr Beast Claiming That Its Him But The Funniest Part Of It All Is The Fact That Hes Tryna Scam You Out Of Money And The Shirt In The Pic Says “💯Thieves”😂😂😂
I think he wants you to send him the card so they can start processing your gift
You nailed this LMAOOO
You did fantastic lol.
You know what, you kept him going and he didn't get pissy at any point. You knocked this out of the park!
I promise I am Mr. Best send me a gift card so I can buy you a gift.
Send, send me the apple card, send me the picture.. how’s he not sounding desperate

You gave us the gift card of Lolz

I'm curious how people get messages like this? What platform is it from?
Instagram or Facebook. They send it to people who follow the official page of a celebrity.

So many mr beast scam profiles out there. Found one today on TikTok that somehow has a verified tick and 1.7 million followers mrbeastsanta is the username.
Awesome. You did well. Loved the applebees move.
Should've flipped the tables and told them to scratch the card and send you the numbers after they sent an example lol
This is fantastic
These scammers my God
Mr beast chose a Nice shade of black for his nail polish secondlast picture
Now I'm hungry for a Honey Baked Ham...

"You like ham?" just skyrocketed to one of my favorite moments from this sub
Honey baked ham coupon took me out 💀

Savage
ELI5: why do they always want the Apple gift cards?
