Fraud Scamming

Overview

Texting victims from a burner phone, cloned cards, money orders, forged checks and store returns. What's in Fraud Scamming and what it needs.

On this page

Fraud Scamming (tr_fraud) adds five ways to make money from fraud, each one done by hand on a burner phone and tr_laptop's laptop:

  • Texting victims: text someone from a burner phone, posing as their bank, a parcel firm or the tax office, until they send their card details. An AI writes back as the victim, or the player picks from written replies.
  • Cloned cards: send the card to a laptop, load it onto a blank card in Skimmr and swipe it through the card skimmer by hand. It pays once at an ATM, if the ATM doesn't keep it.
  • Money orders: spend a cloned card a little at a time on a store's card terminal, fill the money order in by hand and cash it at a bank teller.
  • Check fraud: take checks from mailboxes, paint the payee out in Fotoshop, write a new name in matching handwriting and print it.
  • Store returns: buy electronics on a cloned card, forge the receipt to say cash, and return the box at another store.

Every step can go wrong, and the police hear about it when it does. The server decides every outcome, and every card, check, money order and sale is a row in the database, so a copied or spawned item pays nothing.

tr_core finds your framework, inventory, target and dispatch script by itself. With a tr_core or tr_laptop older than these, the server console says so when tr_fraud starts.
