Scammer Grammar

Scammers are always looking for more effective words. Many people have learned to be on their guard, and they’re likely to suspect an overly aggressive phishing phone call from a fake credit card customer service agent speaking accented English. But victims still fall for the bad language use every day!

Online scammers use similar techniques. When texting or emailing their marks, or posting information in fake profiles, or messaging, they often work from “scripts” of prewritten boilerplate language. The most effective conversational gambits are saved and distributed to other scammers in the network, and they cut-and-paste the scripts into their grifts at crucial moments.

BUT THEY SOMETIMES ARE FORCED TO IMPROVISE!

This is where the scammer grammar becomes more obvious.

The following are examples of language we have seen and copied to share their unscripted writing styles:

I consider myself a kind, generous, loving woman with a fun-loving, friendly personality. My interests are numerous enough that I’ve never known a day of boredom in my life, and I bring a lot of fun and adventurousness to everything I do. I live a healthy lifestyle and I’m young at heart, which follows from my upbeat outlook and active, energetic spirit. I love traveling and experiencing new cultures, cooking good food and having great conversations, and I’m hoping to meet a man who has similar ideas about life and some common interests or uncommon interests we could enjoy together.Like to travel spontaneous road trips can be great fun.

Monique Palamino Wilson / Wils mwilspalamino@yahoo.com

I am loyal above all, very intelligent, funny, well adjusted. I enjoy going out as well as staying in. i miss having a man in my life. i like watching, laughing, listening, caring, kissing, holding, rubbing each other sore backs, necks, heads. Just being together, looking into each others eyes and know what each other is saying without speaking a word. I am a passionate woman and l love to be the long run it is companionship and enjoyment of what each person loves to do..

My ideal match is someone who has a zest for life, someone who can laugh and have fun but at the same time, he must be responsible and serious. Someone with whom I share a strong physical and emotional connection with. In the long-term relationship I believe that it is essential that we share similar values and that we have excellent communication with one another. I am a passionate woman and llove to be affectionate.
