    Scammers love people with low IQs. Just like shooting fish in a barrel on TS

    Guess some of those folks that were railing against inheritance tax really didn’t need to worry. That money is already gone. Womp womp

  3. Let’s break this down. Donald Trump started it. Would you be shocked if he was selling your information?
    Do you think the majority of people on Truth Social are bright people? They believe anything… Especially if it comes from Trump’s platform.

  4. My self-described “MAGA Patriot” brother bought $DJT in the $40s. He’s now claiming that there should be a class action lawsuit because “I don’t think this was ever a real company”. You don’t say! lol

    If he could afford it he’d buy one of those $100k Trump watches in a heartbeat.

    Yes, people this stupid/gullible exist.

  5. I imagine that the people on Truth Social largely are the same people who repost those “Facebook doesn’t have rights to my data” posts. So… easy targets.

    Of course, if you are looking for gullible people, where else are they concentrated so heavily?

    We should definitely have the DOJ go after these scammers, sometime in the near future, perhaps around the year 2048.

    It is terrible and heart wrenching that these scumfuckers go after to weakest and most stupid members of society. Throw them all in prison, in a couple of decades.

  8. FTC complaints? Why would they want big government to interfere in their private business?

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

    Hahaha. No shit.

  10. Have at it scammers. I can’t think of a better group of humans to get scammed. TS: Home of the grift.

    >But the scams happening on Truth Social appear to be most commonly pig butchering, a method of gaining someone’s trust while getting them to give you increasingly large amounts of money, all while making it seem like the victim is making wise investments. Truth Social, with its older user base of Boomers who have access to a lifetime of savings and retirement accounts, appears to be an attractive target for scammers running pig butchering operations.

    More like elephant butchering

  12. All I can say is….. Fuck ’em. They unleashed this monster onto the world and either participated in his depravity or were complicit with it. With the people they have alienated, and the money they have squandered, they deserve to be broke and alone.

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

    Ya think?

    Orange-head is the biggest scammer of them all. He probably gets a commission from all the other scammers.

    It’s the price that must be paid in order to be a member of “The Cult”.

    Its almost like people who fall for one conman are more likely to fall for another

    Well, if I was a scammer I’d definitely head for the platform that has the highest proportion of morons.
