    I am absolutely sickened by the ghouls in this thread, laughing at the victims of scams. You all should be ashamed of yourselves.

    To the victims of Truth Social, my heart hurts for you, and I’m here to help:

    Send me the financial transaction details of the scam, including your bank account number, your social insurance number, date of birth, your mother’s maiden name, and other documentation as needed, and I will take care of things.

    That’s great. I’d rather have them getting scammed than them donating that money to their Nazi party

    I see a lot of handwringing in society over kids not being able to handle themselves online.

    I’d be more worried about senior citizens.

    Another thing that sticks out about the complaints filed with the FTC is that they seem to involve plenty of elderly fans of Donald Trump. One 72-year-old man who reported chatting with a “beautiful” woman on the site was scammed out of $21,000. His complaint ends with, “I haven’t told my wife about this blunder. She still doesn’t know about it.” Another person in their 60s said they lost $500,000 to scammers on Truth Social and seemed to think there might be a way they could get their money back, telling the FTC, “After I pay this they promise there will be no more fees and I will receive my assets.”

    what is even happening here. this reads like something from an onion article.

    Truth Social seems to be a target-rich environment for people who are easy to con.

    Ya don’t say.

      I don’t feel any empathy to those people and they’re easy to scam, so I might need to check this business opportunity.

        I feel absolutely zero sympathy for these people. It’s not a platform full of Rhodes scholars either so it’s like shooting fish in a barrel

    Truth is, it’s all a scam to begin with. So sounds like they’re nailing it.

      Exactly what I came to say, truth social is what is called a “target rich environment”
