Raffle groups? Do they play a fusion of Rap and skiffle?
People have been scamming people forever, not only those you deem as 'thick' have fallen foul.
You wouldn't believe the number of people who 'share' supposed giveaway posts such as 'Free Audi A5 just comment and share'.
The trouble is with any sort of successful scam is it relies on either greed or desperation. Greed is one thing. Desperation is quite another and can make people believe in things that they want to believe in.

fair enough mamy, come on, this makes the Nigerian 419 scam look sophisticated! You've got to be completely radio to partake in a twitface "raffle"!
Can be bothered conversing with all your twaddle.
TTT, is it too much to ask that you post in plain English?

well you just have!
Question Author
do they have google on your planet, the nigerian 419 scam is well known for about the last 25 years.
TTT why is it that every time I look at your avatar I have this overwhelming desire to punch it?
Noodle translation from TTT to english

"completely radio" = gaga, ie lacking mental capacity
"twitface" - Facebook (other forms of social media are available)
Nigerian 419 scam - internet scam originating in Nigeria but now prevalent across the world. Originally named after the Nigerian penal code - effectively internet users are scammed into sending money to scammers for fees for an inheritance, fees for travel/hotel (in the case of romance scammers) etc.

please do.....

radio = radio rental - mental
Thank you Barmaid.
If only everyone could be as wise and scam-conversant as you,eh, TGT?

I hope I never get scammed and have no desire to heap scorn on those who have.
I feel dirty now ;)
A lot of those people open to scamming are in dire straits and enter in the hope of winning enough to get straight.

fair enough JTT but the scamee must take a modicum of responsibility for spotting an obvious con. Let's see some stranger on a world wide site is running a raffle, I'll bung £50 straight in what could go wrong? Jesus H on a bicycle it's easier to operate than a crowdfund!

I get that danny but they'd be better off on the 15:30 at Newmarket, at least the bookies pay out if you win.
Perhaps you ought to turn your attentions away from AB and take up patrolling the pages of other social media warning people against partaking in fraudulent raffles and other schemes?

It'll be a 'win-win' situation all round....
