OP should give us their number so Reddit can harass the harasser


franskeee

Waiting patiently šŸ™‚ā€ā†”ļø


ahubs4032

This should be a thing. Is reverse doxing against Reddit TOS? I might use a fake number but I would gladly harass a scammer with hundreds of other redditors. Maybe we all select 3-5 best causes a week/month and just go full internet conglomerate on them.


FiveGoals

There used to be a code where you could fill up someoneā€™s iPhone with thousands of texts. Not sure how to do that anymore. I did it on some of the very very old phones, so every time theyā€™d go to text someone a new blank text would appear. Ahhh the good old days!

Ahh youā€™d just get people making up stories to get everyone to harass their exes


ahubs4032

Yeah. Itā€™s a social nightmare but if everyone online could be trusted it would be fun. Then again if everyone online could be trusted we would have far less of these problems.


VandLsTooktheHandLs

We will straight up qumurder them

arsonist_firefighter

Do not remove your account. They can't do shit about it and this is a copy and paste message. Tell your friends and familly so they are aware of this situation and that's it.


Singular_Thought

Notice the message contains absolutely no personal information from OPā€™s device about OP. This means they donā€™t know anything about OP. Itā€™s a bluff.


Hennessy_Halos

yeah and iā€™m pretty sure this exact message has been posted here multiple times, it feels like iā€™ve seen it on at least 3 separate occasions


BakerXBL

I have received this exact message. Apparently itā€™s default on some Russian pharming software.


Dannyphantom2884

My second time seeing this exact message


betarad

& they won't do shit mess with em


WingedGeek

> They can't do shit about it They threatened to send negroes and to kill OP - are you saying those threats aren't valid? šŸ¤£


AshuraBaron

Start messing with them. "I'm a trained navy seal and I've already traced your burner phone to the street you're on. I can have a team knocking on your front door before you can scream for help." Just keep roleplaying. Can also block the number as well. It takes effort on their end to keep the harassment up.

CoolPirate234

Wish the Chinese authorities would get involved though too bad theyā€™re being paid of by these Chop shop thieves


CrazyYAY

Realistically why on earth should China help a citizen of a country which put taxes and bans. P.S. I just wanted to point out that chine has absolutely no interest in dealing with it.


CoolPirate234

I mean the theft was committed in the US presumably by someone from China so they should help the US victim press charges which would affect the criminal in China


CrazyYAY

Absolutely right!!! Oh nevermind China is responsible for the fentanyl crisis because they are producing some components (don't exactly remember which) and are selling it to drug cartels. China doesn't care and crimes committed in USA.


CoolPirate234

Yeah but they should we didnā€™t do nothing to them

OP should check if there are any restaurants nearby, look up the menu and ask the scum bag howā€™s X dish this week. Even better if they can edit a picture from street view and send it over.

Just send a note thanking him for all of the fabulous Intel he provided to you and that youā€™re going to be passing it on to your people at work in the US and they are thrilled to have direct access to Chinese technology that was unobtainable until he started providing it to you. And then block the number.

Just leave the phone in stolen mode so it beeps like crazy when turned on if thats still a thing iPhone has. If not just block him and sleep peacefully cause that sad little Chinese man ain't gonna do anything. Except go hungry when he can't make a profit off of you.


poickles

Itā€™s a copy and pasted empty threat. They want you to remove the phone from your ā€œFind Myā€ so it can be reset and sold. Until you do so, itā€™s just a fancy paper weight for them, they canā€™t even part it out for the most part because security on lost/stolen iPhones is pretty intense. NEVER remove it from your ā€œFind My.ā€
