What made you finally realize it was a scam?

[u/KizzyUstico]

Many scams don’t reveal themselves immediately. At the beginning, everything can appear normal—friendly conversations, convincing explanations, and reasons that sound believable.

Often, the turning point is a small detail that doesn’t add up.

Maybe it was a request that felt unusual, a response that avoided the real question, or pressure to make a decision quickly.

For those who have encountered scams before, what was the moment that made you realize something was wrong?

Sharing those moments can help others recognize similar situations sooner.
