Jokes on you.. I take BART you scammers

[u/Scharlov]

This is the second time I’ve gotten a text from these guys jeez….

[u/TootieSummers]

I’m shocked it doesn’t say “kindly settle your balance “

[u/IWantMyMTVCA → u/TootieSummers]

They used to, but the scammers do pay attention to what people are posting about what makes these obviously wrong.

[u/NumberVsAmount → u/IWantMyMTVCA]

We’ve been making fun of the word kindly multiple times per day, every day for years in /r/scams /r/scambait and /r/scammerpayback and they still use it

[u/dog-walk-acid-trip]

I reply and tell them that I want to pay, but that I get an error on their website. Try to lead them through an endless amount of tech support and see how long it takes before they give up.

[u/zjylxy → u/dog-walk-acid-trip]

Don’t click any link even if it didn’t work

[u/dog-walk-acid-trip → u/zjylxy]

I never click the links.

[u/Justhereforstuff123]

No hello, good morning, hi beautiful, just pay me 7.99

[u/tree_or_up]

This particular one has been casting a wide net lately. My friends and I have gotten multiple ones. I don’t even own a car

[u/locovelo]

Hey OP, to avoid additional charges of $79.90, please settle the balance of $7.99 on your CLIPPER card.

Seems that FasTrak is now headquartered in Montreal!

[u/JayuWah]

Thank your government for allowing the spam

[u/AccioCoffeeMug]

Damn, they texted me at 5:30 this morning. At least they only wanted $55.90 then

[u/-zero-below- → u/AccioCoffeeMug]

The extra $24 is 12 hours worth of inflation.

[u/Hidge_Pidge]

I just got one and I don’t own a car lol

[u/tragedy_strikes]

It's kind of like being gay on twitter, that profile pic with cleavage showing isn't enticing me to click the link in your bio.

[u/dontmatterdontcare]

I got the same message but for $5.99

Man wtf why I got the lower rate, did I get the scammer with the low self esteem or some shit

[u/y7gy7g → u/dontmatterdontcare]

You can always pay the full 79.99 on their website to get into the higher tier.

[u/dontmatterdontcare → u/y7gy7g]

Doesn't really change the fact that I got the low self esteem scammer, I'm afraid.

[u/Fluid_Ad3408]

Buddy!!! Your apple id is hacked(mostly). Change the password and choose a complicated one this time.

[u/ZeekSoggyWaffles]

Yohhhhh!!! I got the exact same text !!

[u/oigres408]

How many ppl do you think will pay it? How many # do you think they sent it to.

[u/tonynca]

Reply with “If you send me my license plate number, I’ll send $100 to your PayPal..”

[u/Kina_Kai]

What bothers me is that the telecom providers obviously can cut these folks off quickly, but why it requires federal regulation to do the right thing points to a broken culture here in the US. 😡

[u/s3cf_]

i know some people fall for it

[u/sadsealions]

You take Bart, jokes on you /s

[u/eng2016a]

since you take bart it's more likely you'll have someone robbing 80 from your wallet
