that you're here with me. I know what you're thinking,
I'm too plain, too boring to me, and you're stunning
at sparkling presence. Well that is true, but never fear.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Our guest is exactly.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
The same as you, and I am again extracting the
most interesting and sometimes.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Salacious parts out of people. So how are you ready?
This is concealed with me, Art Simone, roll the time.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
My name's Rosie. I'm thirty nine years old and I'm
a voice, actor and musician beast out of Los Angeles.
For fun, I like to make my friends laugh, tak
nap with my cat, I let canceled plans and going
to live music shows.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
All right, hello, Rosie, how are you?
Speaker 3 (00:59):
I'm great? How are you?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I'm doing well.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
I'm feeling so international today because I'm in Austrolla, but
you're all the way in California.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
I'm a lost Angeles.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
What Oh my god, La baby, what's one fabulous thing
that's happening in La at the moment?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
Is there anything I enjoyed today by going to the
pool and hanging out with some friends. Yeah, it's been
really hot. So luckily my apartment complex has an amazing
pool that never gets to crowded.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
So stop it. Don't tell anyone about it.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Is that a secret you have to hide from your
friends that they don't know that you have a pool?
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yes, because there's like you know, there's fake people all over,
but the fake people who use me for your pool
are a whole another level.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
It's just la baby. Okay.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
So you said you're a voice actor and a musician.
That's already exciting things to talk about. So now I'm
really confused as to what you could be concealing from
me today, because off the bat, they're really really fun
things and I could talk to you about them forever. Voice acting,
Oh my god, like for like cartoons or for like Siri,
or I don't know what, what do you?
Speaker 1 (02:06):
What do you? Voice act?
Speaker 3 (02:07):
I do all different kinds. I've done smart assistant kind
of impressions. So I've done like a Siri voice when
I talk like this, and a lot of movies and
television shows pay me to sound like Siri so that
they don't get sued. And then I recently got hired
to do a voice match for the TikTok voiceover, the
(02:30):
girl who talks like this. I just did a commercial
where they're like, we don't want to get sued, but
we need it to sound just like that's TikTok girl.
So I do that, and then cartoons as well. I
just got a role on Baby Shark, which was so oh.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Okamn, oh my, that's the episode done. Because you've already
just listed three really.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Fun and exciting things.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
I feel like I don't need to go into any more,
but I will die because it is my job and
my duty to work out what it is you're concealing
from us here today. But I will say I like
that you mentioned a cat, because I am a cat person.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
So how many guests do you have?
Speaker 1 (03:10):
I have two. Wish I had fifty, but I've only got.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Two, which here's a good start. You got to start selling.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
I know, I know it's fine, but I'm always looking
at an excuse to get another one. But yeah, I've
got two little fluffballs that drive me insane and I
love them dearly, but I got to drive them insane
today because I had to get up earlier than normal
and they were not happy.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
They were they were like that's my job.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, they were not having it all, and I was like, no,
I'm going to rev you up.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I'm going to I'm going to mess you up.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I'm going to play some games right now because we
have to be on the same sleeping pattern right now.
You like canceled plans, so you're we are kindred spirits,
cats and canceled plans. Oh yeah, that sounds like a
great one woman show.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Actually, Cat, Yeah, I'm cancer a whole new podcast.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Okay, all right, well just you heard it here first, guys,
don't copy our idea.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
So I'm going to ask you three questions, and from
the answers to those three questions, I have to try
and work out what it is that you're concealing from
us here today.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Okay, you're ready.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Okay, So the first question I have for you is,
if you had to pick a new name for yourself,
what would it be?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
I My cat just meled, which was the funniest timing.
It's not meal.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
You're like, I have an idea.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
I would say irma Irma.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Okay, irma herma.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Okay, No, that's okay, I know an irma irma gird
she's she's fun. Irma, Okay, that's the only other erma
I know. I'll marinate on that. Question number two, what
is something that you do that scares you?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I would say getting on the internet or also live streams.
It doesn't really scare me, but it's definitely an on
edge activity.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Internet and live streams.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yeah, okay, all right, okay.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Question number three, if you you know I had to
say goodbye to your kitty cat and you could choose
an exotic pet to have. Right now, what pet would
you want?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
An exotic pet? Yes? I would say.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
A catfish, A catfish?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Okay, whiskers say by my cat?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Okay, all right, Emma, Emma internet live catfish? Okay, So
catfish clearly puts us in a direction. I'm picking up something?
But am I picking up the correct thing?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Irma, but I's really thrown me, I guess Ierma is
a name that you could you could give you any
name you want to have, and that's also what a
catfish would do. But then where's the live bit come
into it? Hmm live live I am a live catfish?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Where does that work? Doesn't really make any sense though,
does it?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Okay? O, what could you do that's live, and that
is catfishing. You could be on the internet and be like, Hi,
I'm Irma, and I like to pretend to be Irma.
I mean that's what I do. Oh okay, are you?
I mean, are you a catfish? Let's just go with that.
(06:31):
Are you a catfish? Are you coming out here to
be clean? Are you catfishing me today?
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Is this even real?
Speaker 3 (06:38):
I am a scam beater, which means I print call
scammers to waste their time, and I use many different
voices and many different characters to do that.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Oh okay, all right, I did not know that had
even a name for it.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
It's crazy scam beita.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Oh my goodness. So you could be Ima if you
wanted to be, couldn't you.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yes? So one of my characters, since I'm a voice actor,
I do lots of different impressions and characters, and one
of them is an old lady last name gersh Irma. Yes,
so I call scammers to waste their time. I keep
(07:20):
them on the line as long as possible. The old
lady character is the best for that, just.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
Because she rambles and loses her train of thought and
she talks like she's got a little bit of us
an X and the shaky voice and doesn't know what's
going on.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
And I just love to trick the scammers into saying
funny things. So I always say, like, last name Gersh,
first name Irma, and these grimy scammers are going Irma
Gersh and it makes me so hard. And I often
do live streams on TikTok and YouTube where I got
suggestions from the audience and the chat and stuff like that.
(08:04):
So that's how I spent most of my days.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
The dots are connecting now, so essentially you're kind of
a drag quay because you know you've got a drag name.
So I think I think we are on a similar wavelength.
I love this. I love wasting people's time. That's so
much fun. It's very rewarding only if they deserve it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
They do, they all do.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Where did this all start? Did you just have an
idea once?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Or did someone give you a phone call that was
trying to ask for a bit too much information and
he thought I could go a bit further with this.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I got into scam beating because number one, I've always
been a prankster. I've always loved, you know, prank calls
that don't ruin someone's day. Innocent pranks, you know. And
then a few years ago, my mom fell victim to
a scam on her computer where she got a pop
up that said it was Microsoft or Windows saying that
she had a virus and to call a number for help.
(08:55):
Her computer was beeping and blaring and making all sorts
of really scary noise. She didn't want to bother her
kids and call us with more computer help, because that's
a journey to help my mom with the computers. So
she was like, oh, I'll just call the number and
they were like, oh, you've got a virus, can remove
it for you, and we can give you a lifetime
(09:16):
subscription to our services to protect your computer for four
ninety nine, which is four hundred and ninety nine dollars.
And she was like, you know what for a lifetime thing,
that sounds worth it. I'll do it, you know. I
called her, how was your day? She's like, oh, you know,
computer stuff. But I got it taken care of. And
I was like, rewind what happened. She's like, oh, I
(09:37):
got a virus on my computer. And I was like, Mom,
I told you don't click on anything. Don't call these numbers.
I've told her before, but you know, she's distracted. She
didn't want to bother us, she was just doing her best.
But I told her to give me that phone number
because it was the same day, and I called them
and I wanted her to be able to see. And
this was before there were a lot of live streaming platforms.
(09:58):
I think Facebook might have been the first. So in
order for my mom to see what I was doing,
I went on Facebook Live and called this scammer and
I was on the phone with him for maybe an
hour and forty five minutes, acting like a ditsy girl,
just like, oh my god, I know know what's happening.
I asked him out to drinks. We were flirting, and
(10:19):
before I knew it, I had a lot of people
watching a lot around that time, was like one hundred
of people watching. And then my inbox filled up of
requests of Hey, can you call this number? This person
try to scam me for this job listing, or this
person try to scam my grandma. And I just got
like an influx of all these requests and I just
(10:40):
put together a few YouTube videos of me pranking them,
and my channel just blew up because everyone either has
been scammed or knows someone who has, and you can't
always go after them yourself. So I think it feels
good for people to watch it and like have someone
stick it to them, even if it's not like direct. Yeah,
and so yeah, it just kind of happened because of
(11:03):
my mom, and it just became this thing. And now
I've been doing it for almost seven years and there's
a whole community of us now that are like, we're
all friends, we all get together, we have a discord,
we share numbers, we report people to authorities. It's like
a whole thing and it's just so random. But it's
really cool that a bad thing turned into a good thing.
(11:25):
And now because my videos have an audience, I can
educate the public on what kind of scams to look
out for, especially with AI and all this technology. So
long story long, that's the answer.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
So my experience always been people calling me, right, but
you're actively going out and calling them. Does that mean touchwood?
I've never been scanned before that I know of. They
are they groups of people that are scamming or is
it like individuals that are just called calling people being
like trying to jupe them? Like, who are behind all
of these things.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
There are so many different types of scam. Some of
them are in a call center with hundreds of people,
Some of them are individuals. Some of them kind of
have like a weird crime ring, like the lottery scammers
who pretend to be sweepstakes and publishers clearinghouse. They make
a lot of money calling the elderly telling them that
(12:17):
they've won a prize. They just have to pay for
the taxes. They steal people's identity. So there's yeah, individuals,
small groups, big groups with hundreds of people. And the
thing is, I don't think that scammers are going anywhere,
Like as long as we're alive, there's going to be
bad people doing bad things for the wrong reasons, and
(12:37):
sometimes doing bad things out of desperation. So you kind
of have to at the end of the day remember
that these people are human. They're not really that bad.
Maybe they're just in a tough place and they're desperate.
So I try to remember that these people I'm talking
to are humans at the end of the day. But
there's no harm in wasting their time.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Yeah, I was going to say, is you're objective just
to waste as much time as they can, because if
they're on the phone with you, they're not on the
phone with someone else, so they can go, Yeah, you
can take up as many hours of their day as possible.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
And I do weeks and weeks and weeks.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Is what they're doing actually illegal? Like I mean, I
guess they're scamming people, but if you're paying for I
don't know, how do you like mandate these people?
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
It's illegal in a lot of ways. It's hard to
go after people who aren't in the US, like in
the same country. Yeah, but oftentimes a lot of these
scammers have what's called a money mule in the States
that will take the cash or get the cash mail
to them, take a cut, and then you know, get
(13:44):
the rest of the money sent to the scammers. So
oftentimes they have money mules in the States. And so
there's another channel who I'm friends with. It's called they're
called Trilogy Media. It's two guys and they track down
money mules in person, which is it's so scary, but
they do a lot of sting operations in person with
(14:04):
these money mules. They've gotten arrests done and all kinds
of stuff. They are way more intense, Yes, but we
all have our own style. There's you know, I just
got back from London and we did what's called the
People's Call Center. It was the third annual People's Call
Center where all of us scambaters are in a room, hackers,
(14:27):
scambaters and we're all in our own call center doing
reverse scam calls, so intercepting calls with scammers to victims,
doing victim outreach, wasting the scammers time, and then some
of the people setting up sting operations. It's so scary,
but we were in an undisclosed location. It's like a
very sensitive thing. But it's really cool. We all get together,
(14:48):
like you know, I just see.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
It's like you said, I had no idea. There was
this massive community of people.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Coming up you.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
I believe how Britney Speeds plays all in one of
Rosie's most viral scam calls and the unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Thing she's made scam is doing. Okay, so we're back
with Rosie.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
This scam beata who scam scam is to waste their time.
Now you were saying some of these operations are quite large.
Is there anything scary that's happened while you've been on
one of the calls or that you know.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Nothing, nothing scary has happened to me with the scammers. Really,
I again like to keep things as light and funny
as possible. I use burner numbers and a VPN, and
I stay really safe when I do those things. The
scariest thing is building an audience. You know. I have
a lot of followers now and a lot of subscribers,
(15:49):
and there's some weirdos in that bunch, you know that
will feel like, oh, they feel like they know me
because I'm live streaming or I'm you know, answering their
question and the chat. And so it's more some of
the people that watch my videos that have gotten interesting
than the scammers. But yeah, I keep my information super
(16:11):
locked down and I'm really safe about all the things
I did. One time confront a scammer in person with
one of the guys from Trilogy Media came with me
and we set up a staying operation. This is maybe
three four years ago, and the guy ended up paying
the money back, so it worked. But when I was
(16:31):
doing it, I was like, this could go really wrong.
Thankfully it didn't. It shook me up enough to not
want to do that again. Yeah, I just would rather
be funny on live streams.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Oh, it makes me feel so nervous.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Like I even get second hand embarrassment watching videos like
this because I'm like, oh, it's like my throat, my
HET's up in my throat's crazy. Yeah, so you're doing
these live straights. What is the longest cold you've been on?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Like?
Speaker 2 (17:00):
How long have you been able to drag something out
without them clocking that you're joking?
Speaker 3 (17:05):
The longest call I've had was in a live stream,
probably about four and a half hours.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Oh my god, for half hours?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
What are you put the phone out? I'm just gonna
go to the bathroom. I'll be back in a second.
Like how do you string them along?
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Jake? I take a lot of breaks because I'm pretending
to go to the bank. I'm pretending to drive to
the post office. I'm pretending to pack up cash. I've
had scammers ask me to mail them like seventy eight
thousand dollars in cash because I think I have it
under my mattress. Like this character I play either Erma Gersh,
(17:41):
but I recently changed it to last name Steel, first
name Anita, so that the scar says Anita steal. So
recently it's been Anita, but uh, you know, there's lots
of breaks in between of me going to the post
office for me packing up money, or me going to
FedEx or going to get gift cards from wherever you are,
(18:02):
and then it doesn't end there, Like I've kept them
going for weeks and weeks and weeks.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
So you have some regulars that you just keep calling
back to continue the story with, Like on this week's episode,
we're gon we're gonna continue this storyline today? Do you
have to make notes of everything to remember?
Speaker 3 (18:17):
All?
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Right?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
With this caller, I'm ierma Ir mcgersh and she's currently
on the way to the bank, but then she still
needs to go talk to her daughter who's been kidnapped.
So there's a lot like how do you keep.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Up with it?
Speaker 3 (18:28):
J just us breadshakes crazy? I do? I save them
all on my phone by their fake name. They're always like,
my name is like Daniel Thomas. You like, that's definitely
not your name. And then I put like the prize amount.
I'm like, oh, you've won eighteen point five million dollars,
And so I keep track of what the prize money is,
what they think I'm sending them and they often ask
(18:51):
for my address to like, Oh, We're going to show
up to your house and bring like the Sweet Steakes, money,
the eighteen million dollar prize, and I always give them
the dress of the cheesecake factory near me perfection.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Perfection.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
You're mentioning these things that they're asking for. What is
some of the wildest things that they've requested from you? Like,
you know, you said seventy plus thousand dollars in cash,
Like what are they do? You kind of lead them
into thinking that you have a lot of money, so
they can ask for more and more and more.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Is that how it works?
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Yes, I have a couple of go to stories that
explain why I do have so much money in savings.
I say that I want a lawsuit. It's so crazy.
The main story of why I have millions of dollars
in the bank is because of two thousand and six.
I want a lawsuit against a fast food restaurant called
(19:44):
Jack in the Box where they put too many jalapenos
in my burger. I took a bite while driving and
crashed my car. So that's why I don't have a license,
and that's why I don't have a car. And then
that's why I have millions of dollars, and I just
on the top of my head came up with us.
We call it me and Me and the people in
the chat, we call it the spicy accident, so they think.
(20:08):
And then sometimes I also say that I unalived my
late husband to scare at them a little, and I'm like, oh,
he was a missing person, but I know exactly where
he is.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
He was running around with like dorine three three hands down,
and I like, make up this story and they think
I'm this like murderer old lady with.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Millions of dollars. And I get them to do the
craziest stuff like I'll say, oh, I'm in love with you,
can you sing me a love song? I've gotten them
missing my Heart will go on by Selene Dion, And
then they think that I'm They think that I'm mailing
them cash. I tell them that I don't trust the banks,
that I have lots of cash that I keep in
(20:51):
my freezer. It's all super like weird improv stories, but
I keep track of.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Them, and I just realize, you'd be really good, you
know in the movies when you're waiting for the bad
guy to call you. But you have to keep them
on the line so you can trace where they are.
You'd be so good at that. You'd be so good,
you'd be like three hours later, they would have already
found them, you know, ten minutes in, but you're still going.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
You're like, yes anyway.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Or you'd be a great negotiator. I interviewed and negotiator recently,
And you'd be.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
So good at that.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Ah, that would be such an interesting job.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Do you have a particular phone call or scam betas
storyline or something that you're particularly proud of. Is there
one that comes to mind that's, you know, a highlight
for you.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I would say the highlight video for me was one
of the first ones I did where I called it's
called a gift card scammer. They call a bunch of
numbers and say, oh, you've won one hundred dollars gift card.
You just have to pay the shipping of a dollar
ninety five. But when they do that, they get your
debit card information and then they steal all your information. Yeah,
and then the gift card doesn't come. So I was
(22:00):
prank calling one of those people, and I prank called
them and convinced the guy on the phone that I
was Britney Spears and that he was on a prank
show and he believed me, and he was like, well,
prove it, saying like I don't believe you, and that
I did because I can do like an okay Brittany
and pressure like the oh babe, babe, and I did
(22:21):
the whole song and he was like, oh my god,
because he was like yeah, right, and I did it.
And then I was like, by the way, like I'm
going to transfer you to so and so on this
MTV show to get clearance of the rights for this recording,
like I did this whole fake thing, and he was
so excited. And that was one of the first videos
that blew up, just because it was such a wild ride.
(22:45):
That one sticks out to me the most. And then
uh another one where I was an old lady and
then my Siri, I was like trying to get my
smartphone to like send money, and then Siri was like warning,
this is a scam, and then I started arguing with Siri,
and Siri started arguing with me and then arguing with
the scam and it was like this weird shrifecta of
(23:10):
nothing real. But they believed they were like turn off
your Siri, turn her off, like, don't listen to her,
She's just a robot.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
That is heaven. I love that.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
What is the endpoint in one of these scam calls?
Like what is there? Do you like to do a
gotcha moment? Or do you just keep going until they
give up on you?
Speaker 3 (23:31):
It depends on the type of scam. For the tech
support scams, people pretending to be geek Squad, which is
like a tech support thing for Best Buy in America,
or people pretending to be Microsoft, or they pretend to
be Amazon or all these things. For those, I just
like to waste their time. And since there's so many
(23:53):
of us, we're all in a discord, we all share
the numbers, and then we all just like infiltrate their
call center enough for them to change their number because
they're get harassed. So any email they sent out, I'm
sure you've gotten emails before of like, oh it's PayPal,
we got this invoice. You're like, I never yeah, pay
that And there's a number on it to call for support,
(24:13):
and that's actually the scam center. So we like to
collectively call them as much as possible. Either just one
of us over and over or all of us over
and over, and then they'll change their number and the
entire you know, slew of emails they sent out are
now invalid and won't work because they'll change their number
because they're so thick of us.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
I want you to give me a few pointers, because
let's imagine I suddenly get the bulls and I want
to be a scam beta. What's the best way to
go on? I want a couple of pointers on how
to do it successfully and continue a conversation till my
eyes fall out.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
Yes, So, if you're interested in scam baiting, I don't
recommend it. It can get dangerous if you're not careful
about stuff. Like if you if you answer a call
on your phone, you're like, I just want to be funny. Well,
now they know on your personal number that you answer,
so they sell your number to a lot of different companies.
Oh this is a real person they do answer. So
(25:12):
now you're setting yourself up for continuous harass.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Step number one, go to the payphone and bring a
lot of yes, a lot of coins because you're going
to be there a while.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Step one pep phone. All right, all right, Well, let's
do a role play. Okay, can you pretend to be
a scammer? And I'm going to do my best and
I'm going to make a character right now? Who am
I going to be? I've got it in my head?
Speaker 3 (25:33):
All right? Okay, Hi, miss, we're just calling because you
have a missed payment on your subscription for Amazon.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
I know what happened to Mihama is on a subscription. No,
I really wanted to get my package from Jeff Bezos.
What am I gonna do?
Speaker 1 (25:50):
How do I fix this? Can you tell me how
to fix it?
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Please? Well, your account's going to be suspended and also
your personal information has been compromised. Is on our end?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
So tragic. How much money do I send?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Well, you do owe about one hundred and forty nine dollars.
But can you go ahead and confirm your last name
really quick?
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Yes, we make sure it's the right Gerbert. It's Gerbert.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
And don't worry because I just went to the bank
and I've actually got one million dollars there, so that's
no worries.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
I can go do that right now. Is the cheesecake factory?
How'd I go? Did I do?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
All?
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Right?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Cheese kick factory wins for me if I mentioned that.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
I think that's a past for today. I think that's
a past.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Oh that was Rosy, the most unconventional catfish scamming scammers.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
She's truly making this field a better place. So am
I I'm just existing.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
I want to check out what a real life catfish
looks like. Then check us out on the socials. It's
not a scam, I promise.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (27:02):
But yes,
Welcome, Welcome, welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
I'm your gorgeous host, Art Simone, and I'm so glad
that you're here with me. I know what you're thinking,
I'm too plain, too boring to me, and you're stunning
at sparkling presence. Well that is true, but never fear.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Our guest is exactly.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
The same as you, and I am again extracting the
most interesting and sometimes.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Salacious parts out of people. So how are you ready?
This is concealed with me, Art Simone, roll the time.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
My name's Rosie. I'm thirty nine years old and I'm
a voice, actor and musician beast out of Los Angeles.
For fun, I like to make my friends laugh, tak
nap with my cat, I let canceled plans and going
to live music shows.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
All right, hello, Rosie, how are you?
Speaker 3 (00:59):
I'm great? How are you?
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I'm doing well.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
I'm feeling so international today because I'm in Austrolla, but
you're all the way in California.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
I'm a lost Angeles.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
What Oh my god, La baby, what's one fabulous thing
that's happening in La at the moment?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
Is there anything I enjoyed today by going to the
pool and hanging out with some friends. Yeah, it's been
really hot. So luckily my apartment complex has an amazing
pool that never gets to crowded.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
So stop it. Don't tell anyone about it.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Is that a secret you have to hide from your
friends that they don't know that you have a pool?
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yes, because there's like you know, there's fake people all over,
but the fake people who use me for your pool
are a whole another level.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
It's just la baby. Okay.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
So you said you're a voice actor and a musician.
That's already exciting things to talk about. So now I'm
really confused as to what you could be concealing from
me today, because off the bat, they're really really fun
things and I could talk to you about them forever. Voice acting,
Oh my god, like for like cartoons or for like Siri,
or I don't know what, what do you?
Speaker 1 (02:06):
What do you? Voice act?
Speaker 3 (02:07):
I do all different kinds. I've done smart assistant kind
of impressions. So I've done like a Siri voice when
I talk like this, and a lot of movies and
television shows pay me to sound like Siri so that
they don't get sued. And then I recently got hired
to do a voice match for the TikTok voiceover, the
(02:30):
girl who talks like this. I just did a commercial
where they're like, we don't want to get sued, but
we need it to sound just like that's TikTok girl.
So I do that, and then cartoons as well. I
just got a role on Baby Shark, which was so oh.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Okamn, oh my, that's the episode done. Because you've already
just listed three really.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Fun and exciting things.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
I feel like I don't need to go into any more,
but I will die because it is my job and
my duty to work out what it is you're concealing
from us here today. But I will say I like
that you mentioned a cat, because I am a cat person.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
So how many guests do you have?
Speaker 1 (03:10):
I have two. Wish I had fifty, but I've only got.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Two, which here's a good start. You got to start selling.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
I know, I know it's fine, but I'm always looking
at an excuse to get another one. But yeah, I've
got two little fluffballs that drive me insane and I
love them dearly, but I got to drive them insane
today because I had to get up earlier than normal
and they were not happy.
Speaker 3 (03:29):
They were they were like that's my job.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Yeah, they were not having it all, and I was like, no,
I'm going to rev you up.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I'm going to I'm going to mess you up.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I'm going to play some games right now because we
have to be on the same sleeping pattern right now.
You like canceled plans, so you're we are kindred spirits,
cats and canceled plans. Oh yeah, that sounds like a
great one woman show.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Actually, Cat, Yeah, I'm cancer a whole new podcast.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Okay, all right, well just you heard it here first, guys,
don't copy our idea.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
So I'm going to ask you three questions, and from
the answers to those three questions, I have to try
and work out what it is that you're concealing from
us here today.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Okay, you're ready.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Okay, So the first question I have for you is,
if you had to pick a new name for yourself,
what would it be?
Speaker 3 (04:17):
I My cat just meled, which was the funniest timing.
It's not meal.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
You're like, I have an idea.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
I would say irma Irma.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Okay, irma herma.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
Okay, No, that's okay, I know an irma irma gird
she's she's fun. Irma, Okay, that's the only other erma
I know. I'll marinate on that. Question number two, what
is something that you do that scares you?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
I would say getting on the internet or also live streams.
It doesn't really scare me, but it's definitely an on
edge activity.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Internet and live streams.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yeah, okay, all right, okay.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Question number three, if you you know I had to
say goodbye to your kitty cat and you could choose
an exotic pet to have. Right now, what pet would
you want?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
An exotic pet? Yes? I would say.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
A catfish, A catfish?
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Okay, whiskers say by my cat?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Okay, all right, Emma, Emma internet live catfish? Okay, So
catfish clearly puts us in a direction. I'm picking up something?
But am I picking up the correct thing?
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Irma, but I's really thrown me, I guess Ierma is
a name that you could you could give you any
name you want to have, and that's also what a
catfish would do. But then where's the live bit come
into it? Hmm live live I am a live catfish?
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Where does that work? Doesn't really make any sense though,
does it?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Okay? O, what could you do that's live, and that
is catfishing. You could be on the internet and be like, Hi,
I'm Irma, and I like to pretend to be Irma.
I mean that's what I do. Oh okay, are you?
I mean, are you a catfish? Let's just go with that.
(06:31):
Are you a catfish? Are you coming out here to
be clean? Are you catfishing me today?
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Is this even real?
Speaker 3 (06:38):
I am a scam beater, which means I print call
scammers to waste their time, and I use many different
voices and many different characters to do that.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Oh okay, all right, I did not know that had
even a name for it.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
It's crazy scam beita.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Oh my goodness. So you could be Ima if you
wanted to be, couldn't you.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yes? So one of my characters, since I'm a voice actor,
I do lots of different impressions and characters, and one
of them is an old lady last name gersh Irma. Yes,
so I call scammers to waste their time. I keep
(07:20):
them on the line as long as possible. The old
lady character is the best for that, just.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
Because she rambles and loses her train of thought and
she talks like she's got a little bit of us
an X and the shaky voice and doesn't know what's
going on.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
And I just love to trick the scammers into saying
funny things. So I always say, like, last name Gersh,
first name Irma, and these grimy scammers are going Irma
Gersh and it makes me so hard. And I often
do live streams on TikTok and YouTube where I got
suggestions from the audience and the chat and stuff like that.
(08:04):
So that's how I spent most of my days.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
The dots are connecting now, so essentially you're kind of
a drag quay because you know you've got a drag name.
So I think I think we are on a similar wavelength.
I love this. I love wasting people's time. That's so
much fun. It's very rewarding only if they deserve it.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
They do, they all do.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Where did this all start? Did you just have an
idea once?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Or did someone give you a phone call that was
trying to ask for a bit too much information and
he thought I could go a bit further with this.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I got into scam beating because number one, I've always
been a prankster. I've always loved, you know, prank calls
that don't ruin someone's day. Innocent pranks, you know. And
then a few years ago, my mom fell victim to
a scam on her computer where she got a pop
up that said it was Microsoft or Windows saying that
she had a virus and to call a number for help.
(08:55):
Her computer was beeping and blaring and making all sorts
of really scary noise. She didn't want to bother her
kids and call us with more computer help, because that's
a journey to help my mom with the computers. So
she was like, oh, I'll just call the number and
they were like, oh, you've got a virus, can remove
it for you, and we can give you a lifetime
(09:16):
subscription to our services to protect your computer for four
ninety nine, which is four hundred and ninety nine dollars.
And she was like, you know what for a lifetime thing,
that sounds worth it. I'll do it, you know. I
called her, how was your day? She's like, oh, you know,
computer stuff. But I got it taken care of. And
I was like, rewind what happened. She's like, oh, I
(09:37):
got a virus on my computer. And I was like, Mom,
I told you don't click on anything. Don't call these numbers.
I've told her before, but you know, she's distracted. She
didn't want to bother us, she was just doing her best.
But I told her to give me that phone number
because it was the same day, and I called them
and I wanted her to be able to see. And
this was before there were a lot of live streaming platforms.
(09:58):
I think Facebook might have been the first. So in
order for my mom to see what I was doing,
I went on Facebook Live and called this scammer and
I was on the phone with him for maybe an
hour and forty five minutes, acting like a ditsy girl,
just like, oh my god, I know know what's happening.
I asked him out to drinks. We were flirting, and
(10:19):
before I knew it, I had a lot of people
watching a lot around that time, was like one hundred
of people watching. And then my inbox filled up of
requests of Hey, can you call this number? This person
try to scam me for this job listing, or this
person try to scam my grandma. And I just got
like an influx of all these requests and I just
(10:40):
put together a few YouTube videos of me pranking them,
and my channel just blew up because everyone either has
been scammed or knows someone who has, and you can't
always go after them yourself. So I think it feels
good for people to watch it and like have someone
stick it to them, even if it's not like direct. Yeah,
and so yeah, it just kind of happened because of
(11:03):
my mom, and it just became this thing. And now
I've been doing it for almost seven years and there's
a whole community of us now that are like, we're
all friends, we all get together, we have a discord,
we share numbers, we report people to authorities. It's like
a whole thing and it's just so random. But it's
really cool that a bad thing turned into a good thing.
(11:25):
And now because my videos have an audience, I can
educate the public on what kind of scams to look
out for, especially with AI and all this technology. So
long story long, that's the answer.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
So my experience always been people calling me, right, but
you're actively going out and calling them. Does that mean touchwood?
I've never been scanned before that I know of. They
are they groups of people that are scamming or is
it like individuals that are just called calling people being
like trying to jupe them? Like, who are behind all
of these things.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
There are so many different types of scam. Some of
them are in a call center with hundreds of people,
Some of them are individuals. Some of them kind of
have like a weird crime ring, like the lottery scammers
who pretend to be sweepstakes and publishers clearinghouse. They make
a lot of money calling the elderly telling them that
(12:17):
they've won a prize. They just have to pay for
the taxes. They steal people's identity. So there's yeah, individuals,
small groups, big groups with hundreds of people. And the
thing is, I don't think that scammers are going anywhere,
Like as long as we're alive, there's going to be
bad people doing bad things for the wrong reasons, and
(12:37):
sometimes doing bad things out of desperation. So you kind
of have to at the end of the day remember
that these people are human. They're not really that bad.
Maybe they're just in a tough place and they're desperate.
So I try to remember that these people I'm talking
to are humans at the end of the day. But
there's no harm in wasting their time.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Yeah, I was going to say, is you're objective just
to waste as much time as they can, because if
they're on the phone with you, they're not on the
phone with someone else, so they can go, Yeah, you
can take up as many hours of their day as possible.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
And I do weeks and weeks and weeks.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Is what they're doing actually illegal? Like I mean, I
guess they're scamming people, but if you're paying for I
don't know, how do you like mandate these people?
Speaker 1 (13:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
It's illegal in a lot of ways. It's hard to
go after people who aren't in the US, like in
the same country. Yeah, but oftentimes a lot of these
scammers have what's called a money mule in the States
that will take the cash or get the cash mail
to them, take a cut, and then you know, get
(13:44):
the rest of the money sent to the scammers. So
oftentimes they have money mules in the States. And so
there's another channel who I'm friends with. It's called they're
called Trilogy Media. It's two guys and they track down
money mules in person, which is it's so scary, but
they do a lot of sting operations in person with
(14:04):
these money mules. They've gotten arrests done and all kinds
of stuff. They are way more intense, Yes, but we
all have our own style. There's you know, I just
got back from London and we did what's called the
People's Call Center. It was the third annual People's Call
Center where all of us scambaters are in a room, hackers,
(14:27):
scambaters and we're all in our own call center doing
reverse scam calls, so intercepting calls with scammers to victims,
doing victim outreach, wasting the scammers time, and then some
of the people setting up sting operations. It's so scary,
but we were in an undisclosed location. It's like a
very sensitive thing. But it's really cool. We all get together,
(14:48):
like you know, I just see.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
It's like you said, I had no idea. There was
this massive community of people.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Coming up you.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
I believe how Britney Speeds plays all in one of
Rosie's most viral scam calls and the unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
Thing she's made scam is doing. Okay, so we're back
with Rosie.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
This scam beata who scam scam is to waste their time.
Now you were saying some of these operations are quite large.
Is there anything scary that's happened while you've been on
one of the calls or that you know.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Nothing, nothing scary has happened to me with the scammers. Really,
I again like to keep things as light and funny
as possible. I use burner numbers and a VPN, and
I stay really safe when I do those things. The
scariest thing is building an audience. You know. I have
a lot of followers now and a lot of subscribers,
(15:49):
and there's some weirdos in that bunch, you know that
will feel like, oh, they feel like they know me
because I'm live streaming or I'm you know, answering their
question and the chat. And so it's more some of
the people that watch my videos that have gotten interesting
than the scammers. But yeah, I keep my information super
(16:11):
locked down and I'm really safe about all the things
I did. One time confront a scammer in person with
one of the guys from Trilogy Media came with me
and we set up a staying operation. This is maybe
three four years ago, and the guy ended up paying
the money back, so it worked. But when I was
(16:31):
doing it, I was like, this could go really wrong.
Thankfully it didn't. It shook me up enough to not
want to do that again. Yeah, I just would rather
be funny on live streams.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Oh, it makes me feel so nervous.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Like I even get second hand embarrassment watching videos like
this because I'm like, oh, it's like my throat, my
HET's up in my throat's crazy. Yeah, so you're doing
these live straights. What is the longest cold you've been on?
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Like?
Speaker 2 (17:00):
How long have you been able to drag something out
without them clocking that you're joking?
Speaker 3 (17:05):
The longest call I've had was in a live stream,
probably about four and a half hours.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Oh my god, for half hours?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
What are you put the phone out? I'm just gonna
go to the bathroom. I'll be back in a second.
Like how do you string them along?
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Jake? I take a lot of breaks because I'm pretending
to go to the bank. I'm pretending to drive to
the post office. I'm pretending to pack up cash. I've
had scammers ask me to mail them like seventy eight
thousand dollars in cash because I think I have it
under my mattress. Like this character I play either Erma Gersh,
(17:41):
but I recently changed it to last name Steel, first
name Anita, so that the scar says Anita steal. So
recently it's been Anita, but uh, you know, there's lots
of breaks in between of me going to the post
office for me packing up money, or me going to
FedEx or going to get gift cards from wherever you are,
(18:02):
and then it doesn't end there, Like I've kept them
going for weeks and weeks and weeks.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
So you have some regulars that you just keep calling
back to continue the story with, Like on this week's episode,
we're gon we're gonna continue this storyline today? Do you
have to make notes of everything to remember?
Speaker 3 (18:17):
All?
Speaker 4 (18:18):
Right?
Speaker 2 (18:18):
With this caller, I'm ierma Ir mcgersh and she's currently
on the way to the bank, but then she still
needs to go talk to her daughter who's been kidnapped.
So there's a lot like how do you keep.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
Up with it?
Speaker 3 (18:28):
J just us breadshakes crazy? I do? I save them
all on my phone by their fake name. They're always like,
my name is like Daniel Thomas. You like, that's definitely
not your name. And then I put like the prize amount.
I'm like, oh, you've won eighteen point five million dollars,
And so I keep track of what the prize money is,
what they think I'm sending them and they often ask
(18:51):
for my address to like, Oh, We're going to show
up to your house and bring like the Sweet Steakes, money,
the eighteen million dollar prize, and I always give them
the dress of the cheesecake factory near me perfection.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Perfection.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
You're mentioning these things that they're asking for. What is
some of the wildest things that they've requested from you? Like,
you know, you said seventy plus thousand dollars in cash,
Like what are they do? You kind of lead them
into thinking that you have a lot of money, so
they can ask for more and more and more.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Is that how it works?
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Yes, I have a couple of go to stories that
explain why I do have so much money in savings.
I say that I want a lawsuit. It's so crazy.
The main story of why I have millions of dollars
in the bank is because of two thousand and six.
I want a lawsuit against a fast food restaurant called
(19:44):
Jack in the Box where they put too many jalapenos
in my burger. I took a bite while driving and
crashed my car. So that's why I don't have a license,
and that's why I don't have a car. And then
that's why I have millions of dollars, and I just
on the top of my head came up with us.
We call it me and Me and the people in
the chat, we call it the spicy accident, so they think.
(20:08):
And then sometimes I also say that I unalived my
late husband to scare at them a little, and I'm like, oh,
he was a missing person, but I know exactly where
he is.
Speaker 4 (20:22):
He was running around with like dorine three three hands down,
and I like, make up this story and they think
I'm this like murderer old lady with.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Millions of dollars. And I get them to do the
craziest stuff like I'll say, oh, I'm in love with you,
can you sing me a love song? I've gotten them
missing my Heart will go on by Selene Dion, And
then they think that I'm They think that I'm mailing
them cash. I tell them that I don't trust the banks,
that I have lots of cash that I keep in
(20:51):
my freezer. It's all super like weird improv stories, but
I keep track of.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Them, and I just realize, you'd be really good, you
know in the movies when you're waiting for the bad
guy to call you. But you have to keep them
on the line so you can trace where they are.
You'd be so good at that. You'd be so good,
you'd be like three hours later, they would have already
found them, you know, ten minutes in, but you're still going.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
You're like, yes anyway.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Or you'd be a great negotiator. I interviewed and negotiator recently,
And you'd be.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
So good at that.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
Ah, that would be such an interesting job.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Do you have a particular phone call or scam betas
storyline or something that you're particularly proud of. Is there
one that comes to mind that's, you know, a highlight
for you.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I would say the highlight video for me was one
of the first ones I did where I called it's
called a gift card scammer. They call a bunch of
numbers and say, oh, you've won one hundred dollars gift card.
You just have to pay the shipping of a dollar
ninety five. But when they do that, they get your
debit card information and then they steal all your information. Yeah,
and then the gift card doesn't come. So I was
(22:00):
prank calling one of those people, and I prank called
them and convinced the guy on the phone that I
was Britney Spears and that he was on a prank
show and he believed me, and he was like, well,
prove it, saying like I don't believe you, and that
I did because I can do like an okay Brittany
and pressure like the oh babe, babe, and I did
(22:21):
the whole song and he was like, oh my god,
because he was like yeah, right, and I did it.
And then I was like, by the way, like I'm
going to transfer you to so and so on this
MTV show to get clearance of the rights for this recording,
like I did this whole fake thing, and he was
so excited. And that was one of the first videos
that blew up, just because it was such a wild ride.
(22:45):
That one sticks out to me the most. And then
uh another one where I was an old lady and
then my Siri, I was like trying to get my
smartphone to like send money, and then Siri was like warning,
this is a scam, and then I started arguing with Siri,
and Siri started arguing with me and then arguing with
the scam and it was like this weird shrifecta of
(23:10):
nothing real. But they believed they were like turn off
your Siri, turn her off, like, don't listen to her,
She's just a robot.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
That is heaven. I love that.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
What is the endpoint in one of these scam calls?
Like what is there? Do you like to do a
gotcha moment? Or do you just keep going until they
give up on you?
Speaker 3 (23:31):
It depends on the type of scam. For the tech
support scams, people pretending to be geek Squad, which is
like a tech support thing for Best Buy in America,
or people pretending to be Microsoft, or they pretend to
be Amazon or all these things. For those, I just
like to waste their time. And since there's so many
(23:53):
of us, we're all in a discord, we all share
the numbers, and then we all just like infiltrate their
call center enough for them to change their number because
they're get harassed. So any email they sent out, I'm
sure you've gotten emails before of like, oh it's PayPal,
we got this invoice. You're like, I never yeah, pay
that And there's a number on it to call for support,
(24:13):
and that's actually the scam center. So we like to
collectively call them as much as possible. Either just one
of us over and over or all of us over
and over, and then they'll change their number and the
entire you know, slew of emails they sent out are
now invalid and won't work because they'll change their number
because they're so thick of us.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
I want you to give me a few pointers, because
let's imagine I suddenly get the bulls and I want
to be a scam beta. What's the best way to
go on? I want a couple of pointers on how
to do it successfully and continue a conversation till my
eyes fall out.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
Yes, So, if you're interested in scam baiting, I don't
recommend it. It can get dangerous if you're not careful
about stuff. Like if you if you answer a call
on your phone, you're like, I just want to be funny. Well,
now they know on your personal number that you answer,
so they sell your number to a lot of different companies.
Oh this is a real person they do answer. So
(25:12):
now you're setting yourself up for continuous harass.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Step number one, go to the payphone and bring a
lot of yes, a lot of coins because you're going
to be there a while.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (25:20):
Step one pep phone. All right, all right, Well, let's
do a role play. Okay, can you pretend to be
a scammer? And I'm going to do my best and
I'm going to make a character right now? Who am
I going to be? I've got it in my head?
Speaker 3 (25:33):
All right? Okay, Hi, miss, we're just calling because you
have a missed payment on your subscription for Amazon.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
I know what happened to Mihama is on a subscription. No,
I really wanted to get my package from Jeff Bezos.
What am I gonna do?
Speaker 1 (25:50):
How do I fix this? Can you tell me how
to fix it?
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Please? Well, your account's going to be suspended and also
your personal information has been compromised. Is on our end?
Speaker 1 (26:00):
So tragic. How much money do I send?
Speaker 3 (26:03):
Well, you do owe about one hundred and forty nine dollars.
But can you go ahead and confirm your last name
really quick?
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Yes, we make sure it's the right Gerbert. It's Gerbert.
Speaker 5 (26:13):
And don't worry because I just went to the bank
and I've actually got one million dollars there, so that's
no worries.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
I can go do that right now. Is the cheesecake factory?
How'd I go? Did I do?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
All?
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Right?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
Cheese kick factory wins for me if I mentioned that.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
I think that's a past for today. I think that's
a past.
Speaker 3 (26:32):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Oh that was Rosy, the most unconventional catfish scamming scammers.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
She's truly making this field a better place. So am
I I'm just existing.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
I want to check out what a real life catfish
looks like. Then check us out on the socials. It's
not a scam, I promise.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (27:02):
But yes,
