Awesome eye opener about social engineering attacks
this was the wildest thing I've listened to in awhile. cheers for getting him to talk.
you clearly social engineered him to give you the full playbook
Welcome back!
How much of what he said do you thonk is bullshit? A lot of his story comes off as braggadocio, some of which seemed downright adbsurd. He has an "associate" whose balls haven't even dropped, but he like some sort of scammer savant passing as Vincent Adultman, fraud prevention specialist? People are slinging McClarens for random bags of crypto? He's not even 21 but pops bottles of Dom at the club with his other underage degen frens and then goes back to his parents' house?
This was very good. Thank you, Junseth
It's not 100% bullshit. However, the kid is a sociopath. This behavior is textbook antisocial with goes in lockstep with being a compulsive liar.
Wild
Sounds interesting. Is it only on SoundCloud?
Wild.
Insane.
Can someone also social engineer you to use #Nostr more?
Yes a lot of his story didn’t line up. He drives a McLaren but lives at home in SF but said “everyone moved to LA”. Said some other guy stole his money and took off but when asked about the guy that left starts talking about some other guy that only made 10k.
Just send fat zaps 😀
It was unreal I listened yesterday
Also, you probably want to stop using
@Wallet of Satoshi in the USA.
Sounded like a full on confession to me. Maybe I little excess bragging but still.
Oh shit are we donating sats to WoS by zapping him? 😂
Hey Junseth, you could use notepress to spin up your own blog that uses long form nostr notes instead of relying on Tumblr. Wouldn't be too hard to switch. Food for thought 🤔
That was fucking insane, that kid is a sociopath.
“Everyone gets the price they deserve” != “I get to thieve and they get a lesson as a cost”
Seems he missed the last half year of wallet drama.
Maybe he is just that ungovernable
This was awful, entertaining, informative, incredible.
I listened on Fountain
😂

I thought it was interesting your first question was “are you a fag?”…
The whole fiat system is one giant social engineering campaign
> “No I just got my dick blown …”
Brilliant “social engineering” maneuver to open him up.
Yes, I was thinking maybe I misheard him on the story about all his friends moving to LA to scam together, because that sounded ostensively batshit absurd; like the sort of thing an asshole kid would make up without realizing how logistically inconsistent that is with shit he also just said. Adding to that, this is a kid who talks about money like he has only spent time lying about it. The cognitive age that he is at, there is no way that he looks at hundreds of thousands as video game money, if he actually had it.
available on antennapod...sharing from there links it as soundcloud
I think the only things that are maybe even half-true are the oddly specific logistics and details about the scam. Evereything else sounded like a failure-to-launch 20-something would make up to impress losers.
kids are gonna cold call everyone who went to Ohio State
A fascinating interview

Conversation was nutty!
Bookmarked for later since everyone says it's good.
You caught him sniffing his own farts.
instant classic
Curious why not Habla.news? What is notepress?
If this guy is a scammer and not a show you put on for us, he definitely dropped some information that should get him and others arrested like today. Sure there was some bragging with lies but I doubt he managed to make that all up on the fly.
What I found most surprising was how he didn't come to his senses during any of those awkward pauses. Maybe his biggest lie is that he's doing this since years cause I find it hard to believe you were the first to try to get some info out of him.
🤣🤣🤣
Habla.news is a client for writing long form notes. Notepress is a simple front end you can self host that just displays long form notes. So you could use habla to write them. They would show up on your notepress. Notepress is a personal blog that you can put on your own site that displays your long form articles.

did you listen when he mentioned that "no one" ever gets arrested? or when he said that social engineering is not even a serious crime? or that there are a lot of other kids doing the same and living their life without any worries?
“By a guy?” lol 😂 my favorite part
Best part of this interview was an episode popping up after 2(?) years of hiatus!
Glad I kept the podcast subscription!
and you absolutely nailed it 🫡
Yes, I did but with such a confession ... him getting doxed could be quite detrimental. Even if he does not get jailed for fraud, the IRS might also want to talk to him.
Yea he doesn't understand he is committing tax fraud as well by not reporting and even admits funneling money through his business also money laundering. Eventually he will be welcomed to Law might not like the results. Pieces of garbage doesn't understand he is destroying lives on the other side. Justifies it like a video game 🤦
wow recording is gone now?

Donated to the journalistic organization you work for. Great work. I recommend others to donate, save journalism today!!

This is insane.
Get your coins off exchanges people, Jesus.
Monero is perfect for criminals. No wonder there's so much "support" for it. They're just laundering money for these guys.
Worth the time to zap the note. Well done.

utxo sighting 🪦
I kinda thought it was fake until he started talking about how good he was, sounded like every wannabe mechanic i have ever talked to.
I don't think thieves get many chances to brag about their exploits, so it makes sense he would just start bragging when the script broke. It's a shame any way you cut it, whether he was telling the truth or stretching it or just lying.
I have 3 kids and he sounds a lot like my son and his buddies who played Minecraft. That kid knew way too much to be lying.
!!!
What “data” are these kids getting, what lists?! @juneseth
Pathological liar
And there’s probably tiny percentage of truth
That was crazy.
Stay hère with US it's not a Ghosttown
Meet Junseth
Can't listen: "You have not provided a valid SoundCloud URL."
This is the most entertaining recording I have come across in a long time. Thanks for taking the time to share it.
In the process of listening I realized all of this is made possible because of KYC.
The dude's friend is gonna get caught .. he told all the names he bought in minecraft
Crazy 🤯
Fat zaps for fat dude. Feed me and my child.
it's worth it
He potentially doxed his mate and by extension, if it's true that they hang out together, himself. Finding the guy who owns the name Coinbase on Minecraft shouldn't be that hard. If they have all the crypto they claim to have, him and his mates are a honey pot for other hackers and extortionists.
Great interview
Looks like it was taken down. What’s the TLDR?
It’s not available. Where can I find a copy?
Dude tried to scam junseth. Junseth recorded the whole call and got him to talk for 20 minutes bragging about all the shit he and his friends do to scam and what they do with the stolen money. Dude claimed to be young and have started this path at the age of 13 and most in the business are minecraft players. Friend paid $100k for the name "Coinbase" on minecraft. Dude is a professional liar so it's not clear how much of it was completely made up or why he would not hang up even after repeated awkwardly silent moments.
Do you have a direct download for this? I listened to it once, but since I got scammed today, I probably need to listen 1000 more times. Fml 🤦🏼♂️
Nevermind, I figured it out, I just downloaded it from nostr. Though I'm about 1/3 the way through the Peter McCormack interview. Very insightful.
