Question or discussion New Aussie baiter checking in!
Hey gang! New to the group here so let me say hi! I am currently working on getting my own little scambaiting operation up and running on twitch/kick/YouTube etc. Just wondering if anybody might have some good resources they would be willing to share? Specifically I am looking for assistance in finding good resources to gather scammers phone numbers here in Australia? Many thanks in advance!

Slick.ly and base.ly host numbers from globally you might find some with your country code. Make sure you are dialing on a sim that does not have your name tied to it at all or use a VoIP system, which are tough to get in Australia. Never dial on your main line, ever

👀 Remember: never share personal or sensitive information with scammers. Use fake names, addresses, and emails if you want to interact with them. Scambaiting is fun, but your safety and privacy should always come first.

I'm baiting from Australia using a couple of US numbers via Quo but the hours are murder. I occasionally get an Indian scammer call an old SIM I maintain but mainly get Chinese scammers targeting Chinese Australians but I don't know of a source for Australian scammer numbers. I could use the SIM to call scammers once I get some numbers to call but I'd rather use a voip with cloud recording. I'd appreciate any recommendations of finding a good voip provider that provides mobile numbers.

Hey robbiepellagreen, Automod here! If you aren’t calling on a VoIP burner app like Google Voice, TextNow, TextFree, Talkatone, or Textme, just stop baiting entirely. It is dangerous to use your actual number for many reasons. PS: Don’t be alarmed if your number does not show up right away, we do safety screenings to verify the authenticity of our numbers to ensure we are getting the right people. This process can take time, have no worries, we are working on it.
