    Everyone deserves someone that looks at them like Mr. Shrimp looks at his spam folder
  • @klop4228
    "I suggest you better start thanking your God" is a fantastic line
  • @lafcursiax
    Hello Ma-baby, hello Ma-honey, hello Ambassador...
  • Don't be alarmed by the triangles, they are merely the latest variant of Geometric Solids that the Slaughter Valley government requests you keep in your home for safety purposes. Do not attempt to ingest or measure the angles of these triangles. In the event that your triangle becomes a quadrilateral, contact the emergency services at once.
  • @nwrth
    Some say it's vital to stay in shape, but none of them clarify which shape exactly. Perhaps "triangle" is the ultimate answer to that. Also, 42 of them.
  • @Jackalgirl
    The glottal stop followed by "sss" every time someone uses an apostrophe to make a plural sends me every time
  • @ZsClawed
    Please Mr shrimp if you get into a position where you're asking a scammer a question hit them with "where does the sun go when it rains?". It will make my week.
  • @kokosagina
    Hi shrimp, a while back I almost got scammed and I attribute the "almost" part solely to you. The FAQ segments you stubbornly insert into your videos taught me humility and helped to eradicate the mindsets of "You only get scammed when you're dishonest" or "only dumb people get scammed". Thanks to that, as soon as I realised something was suspicious I sprung into action and called my bank to block my account, something I might not have done if I was too proud to think I could get scammed In the end I didn't lose a single cent but my phone number gets a ridiculous amount of spam now. Another reminder that even someone who watches your videos religiously and really should know better is susceptible to getting scammed
  • @Ashgar225
    "Federal Ministry of Finance" is certainly one of the phrases of all time. In the US, we don't have Ministers, at least not in government.
  • @Dan-ji4db
    The word "kindly" anywhere in an email is a dead giveaway every time
  • @helvete983
    I'm curious about the triangles too, I had some appear in a pizza a few years ago, and more recently in a bag of Doritos. Glad to find another victim.
  • @RichardWatt
    I wonder if "48 hour monitoring" is like, or as good as, "48 hour deodorant"?
  • @lizcademy4809
    I work for a financial institution that's often named in scam emails. If I decide to scambait, when I'm tired of stringing them along, I ask for their "corporate ID number" (we use a different name for it). Every employee knows their number, and they are freely exchanged within the company. Of course, the scammers don't have the right number — they don't even know the proper name for the number. Usually they drop me as soon as I ask, but sometimes they try to b.s. me. The company also does scam training, so I'm pretty good at spotting scams. I'm still very careful, as I could be caught in a weak moment, as could anyone.
  • Mr Shrimp, you should know by now that only the poorest quality business proposals are 100% risk free. I don't even consider a proposal unless they can promise at least 110% free risk.
  • @alexdupaix
    48 hour monitoring must be where they glance at the thing they're monitoring once every 48 hours.
  • "Legal law, hmm, that's the best kind of law" Arguably ColesLaw is the best law, but fair enough. 😂
  • @HouseOfFunQM
    Why is “100 million dollars United States dollars dollars” STILL hilarious
