    Scammer’s wet dream; A self-compiled collection of people who are gullible enough to believe in Trump.

    Must be like taking candy from a baby.

      I do.

      These people, as terrible as they are, don’t deserve to be scammed. This isn’t scammed like “buying fake Trump merch”, this is scammed like “loosing $100,000+ to random foreign entities”.

      These people aren’t going to get their money back, but we should help them to ensure it isn’t stolen again. These stories should be shared so others don’t fall victim.

      It’s difficult because some are going to see it as political. “LOL, Gubment says Truth Social & Trump are scammers, stupid libs, vote Trump 20xx!”

      So as stupid as these people may be, and even if they don’t want it, they should be helped. I feel sorry for them, and they should be helped.

    Truth Social’s seemingly target-rich environment is also home to romantic relationship scams, including one 72-year-old man reporting that, after chatting with a “beautiful” woman on the app, he was fleeced out of $21,000. “I haven’t told my wife about this blunder. She still doesn’t know about it,” his complaint read.

    Yikes, votes to take away your wife’s Healthcare then cheat on her with a scammer you met on truth social to the toon of $21k. Chef kiss.
