Here's a great one. A lady got an email from a scammer trying to get her to send money for a 'charity' that didn't exist. She decided to play along but in a very unique way. She started asking the scammer for all kinds of details about the 'charity' like its registration number, the names of the board members, etc. Then she made up her own 'charity' and started trying to get the scammer to donate to it. In the end, the scammer realized they were being messed with and stopped communicating. It was a long and comical back - and - forth that really showed how you can outwit scammers.

A friend of mine once got a call from a scammer pretending to be from the tax office. My friend, being quite clever, started asking the scammer all sorts of strange questions about their own tax situation. He then started giving really outlandish answers about his own finances. The scammer was clearly not prepared for this and after a long, convoluted conversation, just hung up. It was a great example of how you can screw with scammers by being unpredictable.

A funny story tells that Washington was once trying to teach his young nephew some manners. He demonstrated how to properly bow and greet someone. But his nephew's dog ran between them at that moment and tripped Washington, causing him to fall forward in an ungraceful manner.

It was quite a comical scene and his friends still tease him about it.
