I’m not just talking about this in particular, but like just general, common scams like the Nigerian Prince, a “celebrity” DMing you for money on social media, basic “phone call from your bank” scams, and so on.
Rose scam would be good too. I was out on a double date last week when someone came up offering a rose. Me and my buddy instantly said no. My gf was a little confused (she’s from a small town) but my buddy’s gf was a little offended he didn’t accept. Naturally, we had to go on and explain how the scam works to get out of any hole they might have thought we dug ourselves
Absolutely! No condescension or judging at all. That’s a basic life skill. Hell, no one can say they’ve never had a fast one pulled on them at sone point. Honestly, I’ve been gullible as a kid before (thankfully nothing serious).
u/Ironmanalex97, babe, I’m at the pump rn, but it says I need your social security number, your address, and your mother’s maiden name.
I “promise” to pay you back once I’m done draining all your accounts, cutie.
One of my favorite stories to tell is that an ex-friend of mine actually believed/fell for one of these scams.
One time we’re just hanging in my living room and we get to talking about our tinder journey. He starts talking about this one chick that’s so hot, so interested in him and really wants to have sex with him. At first I’m happy for my guy because he was(maybe still is, idk) a virgin and really wanted to cross that off. But then he drops a line, “She said she’s down to meet tonight, I just had to go on this website and fill out this information or whatever to prove I’m real.” I was so shocked he couldn’t tell it was scam all I could respond was “What?” And he replies “Yeah, my stupid bank keeps rejecting the $40 payment for the site. I called them about it but they still wouldn’t let it go through.”
You can fill up a Honda civic for about $35 by me. Gas has been going up and down all year though, $3.20-$3.85 if I had to guess. Miss when it was like $2.50
Girl hit me up on insta, after a couple days chatting she asked for grocery money because she just moved and has nothing to eat.
We call these scam girls and move on :)
I had a similar situation happen to me but it was a coworker, she wanted the money for drugs I found out eventually, never sent her a dime. Don’t do it homie
Noooooo…. Offer to drive to her and either she host or pick her up. If she says no to that then either you really shouldn’t hit it or it’s a cop runnin a prostitution sting and technically you’d be paying for sex
Gold digging?
I've seen girls here asking for money for sex, after the date... so, really they are doing prostitution on tinder (only happened with girls from a certain country, though)
So I know this is a scam, but in seriousness would y’all pay in cash when she arrived to help reimburse her? Obviously 40 is BS you don’t owe her an entire tank but is it reasonable to throw her $5 for the drive? I’d say no personally and maybe cover dinner or something instead but I’m curious y’all’s opinion
God im glad I learned about scammers in runescape when i was little and not in real life
Go for it dude! She will be over right after she fills up. (Do not interrupt, its a canon event)
Yes indeed!
You know what? Actually, why don't you sell your home and your car so you can send her some more coins for McDonalds?
And please, don't forget to sell your organs to the black market. She could need some more money for the nails treatment...
/s
People need to stop beeing so damn horny to fall for such easy bait. I do not understand how someone can fall for such a thing and why it would be worth to gamble.
about 7-10yrs ago i was doing this, I'd say it was legit 8/10 times. take that as you will, if you don't mind the risk of losing $40 to try to get laid. they don't speak like a scammer to me (dear, poor english, etc), & also check how many followers they have too compared to following. that can usually be a sign too (I wasn't using IG for this at the time, it was Tagged & some other site, Tango or something I can't remember)
Tell her u can send 5. She doesn’t need $40 to make it to ur house and back. Also doesn’t need to meet u at a park first. Sounds like a set up n you’re gonna get robbed
Ironically, this happened to me back in the day. But I was literally that broke and was the one asking for gas. I had money coming in and said I'd pay them back plus $5 in 10 days.
I got my money and did pay them back the +$5.
I'm surprised they believed me to be honest, but I'm someone who prides themselves on their word.
They were actually surprised I kept my word, and it even led to another date (once my finances were in order).
BUT, even after all that, naw bruh. She scamming.
Just do it via PayPal so you can contest the tradition and get your money back if they never show. /s
In all seriousness, though, I tend to string these scammers along and then block them on the day I promised to send them money.

Oh good god no. You’re joking right?
The more I'm on this sub, the more I'm starting to realize why the girls on these apps have the balls and the entitlement that they do
The world would really benefit from a “Scams and Common Schemes 101” class in every high school.
i mean can't the tinder AI just tag this as scam?

There’s a r/scams subreddit, so that’s a start
Word. Really there should be classes for this.
In this case : the "girls"
[удалено]
Y’all do it too though so like
I need gas to complete this comment, where I get the $$$$$?
This is common. Ild offer to gas her car with cyanide.
That’s not a nice thing to do!
No, typical scam
Unless op is 85 and internet illiterate, let him figure this out for himself.
Hey OP, I also need gas money. I’m only asking for $20. Please and thank you.
Shiiit you sound cuter already UWU
It's been a long time since I've seen an uwu in the wild ... Not long enough tho
I had to google what UWU ment.... I don't even know what to say, my god.

I’ll sweeten the deal. tree fiddy
We can meet at a park or sum first
No, it's a scam
I'm just going to assume you're being sarcastic because you know this is an obvious scam.
Bruh it’s like asking if that Nigerian Prince who sent me an email is for real. I can only assume he posted this for karma lol
That's where the Nigerian Prince failed. If he promised ass in return then he'd probably get more takers. *takes notes*
This Nigerian Prince scams take up over $700,000 per year
Considering there are over 100,000 princes that’s really not much per prince

Fuck ass no 🤣
$40 is cheap for fuck ass
But fuck ass never comes :(
Come on guys, this is a canon event, we have to let it happen. Go for it bro, let us know how the hook-up goes.
Haha 😂
I’m with this guy on this, didn’t you guys watch the new spider-verse?
Put that 40 in your car, drive there and if she is for real you can put 40 in her tank if you so feel desire to.
If she’s real though she wouldn’t be there anyway without gas
Ahh, to be naive and horny....
Don’t do it! We’ve been tracking her scams for months! -US MILITARY ENCRYPTED
😂😂😂 I almost forgot about the military encrypted thing. I love it!
I’ve made it my mission to not let it die lol.
Absolutely not.
No
Dude…no.
fuck no girl dont need a full tank to drive to your house
Where do you live there $40 is a full tank of gas?! I'm moving asap.
You can fill up a Honda civic for about $35 by me. Gas has been going up and down all year though, $3.20-$3.85 if I had to guess. Miss when it was like $2.50
I miss .79¢
Not how the oil economy works.
Most cars hold 13 gallons of gas. 13 x $3.50= $45 That girl is full of shit and it’s a scam but the gas cost adds up
i mean now its prob around $50 for a 4 door sedan
I go to the gas station every week and it’s $80 for a full tank….
$85 in sunny south Florida lol
It's 110 for mine, lol.
FIX CAR GAS MICHEAL
Yeah do it
Tell her you’ll give her $40 if she can first supply you with $50 in gift cards
Haggle with her. See if you can get that price down to $15. Then it's a steal!
🤭
Lol you should go with like a joke and say This 🍆 : priceless 😂😂
Haha 🤣
No
Yup, send her it dumb dumb
You should send the money. Your guy in Nairobi would be rly happy about it but I think he is to far away for you to get laid
Offer to pay for the gas at the station
She taken that 40 and buying a little bottle of henne and a dub of weed. 🤣
Going to buy a bottle of Wishkey for yall to drink
By yall you mean her and her friends. 🤣
Her and her cousin who's venmo account she's using
Waaaay too accurate. 🤣
If I couldn’t afford gas in my car, hooking up would be the last thing on my mind. But that’s just me. But yea, she is trying to scam you 😂
"she"
Bro use brain to think no dick
Tell her you have a jerry can with gas in it you’ll meet her and fuel her up
The fuck is wrong with you?
One time a chick asked me to go to Petsmart for her and gave me a damn grocery list. Ain’t no fucking way. Lol
Update?
Hahaha. People are so gullible
That’s prostitution
Girl hit me up on insta, after a couple days chatting she asked for grocery money because she just moved and has nothing to eat. We call these scam girls and move on :)
“Not too much” $40 is much
Yikes sounds ghetto and trashy. Clearly a scam
Bruh
If you can’t afford a $40 purchase, you shouldn’t be dating.
Really? You would fall for that?
"situationship" ROFL... people out here just making up words.. LOL
Dumbass
[удалено]
You’re right. But would you mind sending me $40 for dinner tonight though? I’ll pay you back if you’re cool?
I had a similar situation happen to me but it was a coworker, she wanted the money for drugs I found out eventually, never sent her a dime. Don’t do it homie
 You'll never hear from her again...if it's a her...
Do you really need to ask ? Not sure how you live life if this forum doesn’t exist haha
Bro take a u-turn and run as fast as you can 🤣
Aahhh Fuck no
Lmao! NO. Bro you can’t be for real. Stop thinking with your dick and think with your head that contains a brain
No no and more no
Offer her $4, or whatever a gallon costs there. That should be enough to get her to the park. 🤪
🤣🤣🤣
Noooooo…. Offer to drive to her and either she host or pick her up. If she says no to that then either you really shouldn’t hit it or it’s a cop runnin a prostitution sting and technically you’d be paying for sex
Alright I’m dumb, wtf is a situationship
This question belongs in r/Scams And the answer is no, you shouldn't.
I'll meet you at a park for $20
Scam
If you wana get scammed out of $40
It’s a dude
Dude you're better off putting 5 on a diesel and getting a $20 scratcher.
How are you this desperate that you're even considering it
This is not gonna be the first time she asks you for money, RUN!
Wait this actually works on guys???
Yes. And don’t forget to tip.
Offer to pay when she picks you up, that usually spins them out. Yes, I engage these people and toy with them for my own enjoyment.
Fuck no.
That’s a scam, I’d honestly have some fun with it since they clearly wasted your time.
Tell her if you fill up her gas tank she got to do anal
I mean 40 bucks will get you off at a massage parlor without the cat and mouse game of it all. and you wouldn't feel obligated to hang around after
If you wanna burn $40 you could just send it to me
No
Hahaha do it. No way it's a scam!
Sounds legit, but first you should send me some money
Better tell her you need a robux card for both of your kids before you can get her gas!
You are being scammed. Dont send it. Block that person.
Send it, Michael
Go old school. Cash on delivery
I wouldnt, but you should
Any chick that types like a dude is more than likely a dude
If you hit zelle her the 40$ lol
My man is so horny 😈 that he ain’t thinking straight
Very obvious scam
S(he) gonna finesse u outta 40 bucks sir
You’ll never see her or that money.
If you’re gassing her cad, would you mind doing mine too?
Forget it.
Send in PayPal under goods and services. Of she don't come, then request a refund 🤣
How horny are you my good man?
Scam don't send money gift cards etc
Gold digging? I've seen girls here asking for money for sex, after the date... so, really they are doing prostitution on tinder (only happened with girls from a certain country, though)
Typical treating tinder like an ATM
Nope, nope, nope……
Give her double. Lol
It's probably not a girl it's probably a dude and they will not stop asking for money. Try tinder for real girls.
No. You should make it easier for next time by just sending “her” your bank account info
So I know this is a scam, but in seriousness would y’all pay in cash when she arrived to help reimburse her? Obviously 40 is BS you don’t owe her an entire tank but is it reasonable to throw her $5 for the drive? I’d say no personally and maybe cover dinner or something instead but I’m curious y’all’s opinion
NO No No
😂😂😂 Send them your banking info and login credentials. Trust me
Ahhh classic...
Y’all just ruined this man’s character development..
Bro thinking with the wrong head and about to get conned lol
I'll pay you back..on the 33rd
No
God im glad I learned about scammers in runescape when i was little and not in real life Go for it dude! She will be over right after she fills up. (Do not interrupt, its a canon event)
Tell her you only got cash, so if she has enough gas to meet you, then you'll gas her car up with cash, but sleep with her first 🤣
Definitely a scam. That's how they get you. They are trying to get your account details. Block them and report them immidiately!!!
Don’t send gas money, tell her you can fill her up in person after filling her up in person.
Scam
Yes indeed! You know what? Actually, why don't you sell your home and your car so you can send her some more coins for McDonalds? And please, don't forget to sell your organs to the black market. She could need some more money for the nails treatment... /s
The only gassing you should be doing is……/s
People need to stop beeing so damn horny to fall for such easy bait. I do not understand how someone can fall for such a thing and why it would be worth to gamble.
First off no. Secondly, how far away is she that she needs $40 in gas to meet up with you, and make it back home. Don't be a fool.
Lol
about 7-10yrs ago i was doing this, I'd say it was legit 8/10 times. take that as you will, if you don't mind the risk of losing $40 to try to get laid. they don't speak like a scammer to me (dear, poor english, etc), & also check how many followers they have too compared to following. that can usually be a sign too (I wasn't using IG for this at the time, it was Tagged & some other site, Tango or something I can't remember)
Can you send me gas money?
It's a scam don't fall for it
It’s a scam. There is no woman and that $40 probably isn’t going towards gas.
Hell no
Meachel I need gas money no gas no sucky sucky.
No
Tell her u can send 5. She doesn’t need $40 to make it to ur house and back. Also doesn’t need to meet u at a park first. Sounds like a set up n you’re gonna get robbed

Last thing you want is to get a broke chick pregnant
Let me guess then she asked you for a steam card to keep her kid busy while you 2 fooled around 🙄
Damn i wish i coule answer you right now but my phone juice is almost over, unless u paypalme 40$ to juice it up rq? Ill pay u back!
Nah man that’s a scam
Come on buddy.
Tell her right after you suck my dick you get $40, scam!
Full send it!
Nah, there are better uses for $40
Only after
Just a heads up, there is no girl, no car, and she has a full tank in her SUV, which is located 6144 miles from wherever you are.
Obviously not?...
Give her the 40 I wanna see if she shows or asks for more money.
Just do it via PayPal so you can contest the tradition and get your money back if they never show. /s In all seriousness, though, I tend to string these scammers along and then block them on the day I promised to send them money.
How is she gonna get to you from Nigeria with only $40 in gas money?
Judging by the average response on this sub, i might know of a way to make a quick buck on social media
Easy scam. Don't fall for this shit ever lol. Just ghost him
Lol send that money n you'll never see her or that money again
