I doubt elderly people would even fall for this

What the hell kind of idiot thinks that you would pay the IRS in Best Buy gift cards? And why would the NCSU Police be the ones calling you about it? If she is that dumb, she deserves to lose the money.

this should be in "you can't make this up" topic.

This happened to my grandmother not shitting you like 6 months ago. They got about $2,000 dollars from her in best buy gift cards. they called and had all kinds of info on her relatives and told her one of them was in jail. She's like 82 so didn't know better.My mom quickly cussed out Best Buy for letting people go in and buy large sums of cash like this. We put a halt at her bank - they have to call my mom before she gets out anything over $500. I think we heard the cards were used some where in PA but thats about as far as things got. I couldn't believe it but it happens man.[Edited on August 27, 2017 at 1:12 AM. Reason : s]

I don't often use the emoji, but. . . A senior in civil engineering?! Please don't design any infrastructure where safety is at risk. Your judgment is severely lacking. Withhold diploma!

Seriously, where did she get $14,000? When I was in school, I was lucky to have like $500 in the bank.Also, goddamn what a moron.
8/27/2017 5:37:03 AM
Well her Facebook profile is public, so it's easy for anybody to get info about her. Freaking dumbass. Apparently she's been working for DOT for a while, which is scary. Not even the old people around here fall for this shit.
8/27/2017 8:32:52 AM
Holy shit, I fear I may have gotten stupider by reading that.
8/27/2017 10:20:57 AM
What the fuck? How dumb do you have to be to think you can pay the IRS with Best Buy gift cards? I can understand being a bit scared and all that, but how do you not call the IRS yourself? How do you not request written info? Damn, just wtf damn.
8/27/2017 11:08:00 AM
yeah, everybody knows they only accept cracker barrel gift cards
8/27/2017 11:15:53 AM
Stayed on the phone with them for more than 4 hours. Again,

When he was at UNCG, my brother sent an email to one of his friends (from uncgpolice@hotmail.com) telling him that he was in trouble for several large downloads of porn.His friend got really nervous, and emailed back asking if they could handle this in a confidential way, and also that he had downloaded lots of small files of porn, but not a lot of large files.Eventually my brother told him.----Also about this time, my brother sent an "official" letter to one of his friends saying that due to his athletic prowess and grades he had an offer to compete in the special olympics.[Edited on August 27, 2017 at 2:21 PM.

I feel like I saw a video on youtube of a guy who got one of these calls and wasted hours on the phone with the guy just for fun only to tell him to fuck off at the end.
8/28/2017 1:40:15 PM
I bet she voted for Trump

emergency card from the parents[Edited on August 28, 2017 at 3:50 PM. Reason : or money laundering]
8/28/2017 3:50:00 PM
had to give those gift cards to Bob from the La Bamba movie
8/28/2017 3:57:06 PM
Those campus police must be real shitbags to do this to a student
8/28/2017 11:03:32 PM
Is it wrong for me to wish she dies of cancer?People like her don't deserve to live. Of if they do, they shouldn't be able to procreate... like quadriplegics. Maybe if all she could do is blow in a tube to go forward or backward she wouldn't be in this predicament.
8/28/2017 11:23:00 PM
^ You know you checked her out on Facebook to see if she's a target for an easy lay.
8/28/2017 11:47:37 PM
I about posted on her page that I know a Nigerian Prince, but I don't want the FBI knocking on my door
8/29/2017 12:05:48 AM
is it me or are her eyes, like, upside down or something
8/29/2017 1:20:08 AM
How does one with such low mental faculties even get into university?
8/29/2017 7:46:16 AM
and there's 9 other idiots who fell for this.as for how she had that kind of money, I'd bet it was from scholarships or loans, meant to pay rent, board, etc., for the semester.
8/29/2017 10:03:19 AM
I had enough scholarships that I never had to pay tuition/board/rent/whatevz and never had anywhere near $14,000 just laying around to buy best buy gift cards with. Kids these days SMH.
8/29/2017 10:19:38 AM
I definitely got a scam IRS call yesterday.
8/29/2017 10:49:43 AM
i think she's trying to make her eyes look anime. What a fucking dumb fuck
8/29/2017 10:49:56 AM
8/29/2017 12:51:21 PM
She's a weeaboo.I don't think they have any particular political leanings.
8/29/2017 1:01:14 PM
sounds like someone dumb enough to have sex with me.niiiiiiiiiice

it's weird that you all are stalking her FB
8/29/2017 1:38:59 PM
I didn't know looking at public information was considered stalking.
