Hey guys sorry haven't been around much hope everybody is doing well.  I thought Id just throw this in general for now mods guys feel free to throw this where ever.  I haven't been doing too much with wood working lately since the price of wood has pretty much sky rocketed through the roof.  But I am alive and well.  I have also discovered the wonderful world of scam baiting so I've been doing that as well.  So it's kept me busy but I hope everybody is doing great and I hope to get back to turning soon.  Cheers.

Hey Andrew!  Glad you’re keeping busy. Never heard of scam baiting. 

@lewScam baiting what that basically means is calling a phone scammer and wasting their time so they are not steeling from a potential victim.  So it could possibly saving someone from getting money stolen from them.  It can get quite interesting but I've been enjoying it and its a lot of fun.  I had to hunker down and learn a ton of stuff about IT and I'm still learning about it.

I’ve had so much fun with the “Microsoft” calls about my computer having problems. 

LOL @lewyea they trigger VERY VERY easily and remember NEVER let anyone on your phone and or computer EVER. I've been playing with the PCH guys lately they are fun and the Scamason guys they are fun tech support they are a bit on the tricky side I have to let them onto my VM virtual machine LOL.  I have some goodies on there as well LOL.  I can spend literally all day on the phone LOL.  and I have many many phone numbers. LOL

Good to hear you're doing OK Andrew. Hopefully you can get back to spinning some wood soon. Glad your back checking in.

Good to hear from you Andrew, glad that things are going good for you.

Scam baiting is a great pastime, I have a very very evil virtualized environment for that.
If you want to see some great scam baiting stuff 419eater.com has some truly fun stuff that’s good for the lulz.

Should you want to go deeper down the rabbit hole, you will want, solid networking skills, a good understanding of OS’s, a few zombies in OCONUS locations, and working knowledge of offensive security.
