A Scammer And...An Outrage
“NOOOOOO!!!!” Jack yelled at his computer, slamming his hands flat on his desk. “I.DIED.AGAIN!” He yelled at the computer again.
“You’re kind of bad at that game though” I said to my younger brother, shrugging as I sink into the couch, watching Netflix.
Jack sulks, logging back into the game and attempting to fight the boss that he couldn’t before have won against.
Then I remember what I was going to say to him but forgot until now.
“Oh, hey Jack, so.... yesterday apparently while I was going to that new opened mall, so I went to Ice-melon, got a strawberry shake and...”
I trailed off for a moment, wondering what his reaction would be to what I was about to say.
“I got framed for being TheIvanToad 123942782”
I say bluntly, not missing how he flips his chair around and turns around with a face full of utter surprise.
“TheIvanToad123942782??? You know he’s infamous for being in all social media’s, many times banned but came back somehow. He’s known for stealing other people’s work,hacking, and cyber bullying. How did that even happen anyways??”
“Oh. Sooooo, I sat in a chair, waiting for my shake and so while I did that, I went in my phone and checked insta. Then, you know Amelia? From when we were in elementary school? I have her on friends and she messaged me, asked me if I could friend this random user. I said sure, it didn’t even say TheIvanToad 123942782, their user said Snowman_Llama2791_, but it turns out, as soon as I friended them, I got a message from them saying ‘hahahaha, you got scammed by TheIvanToad 123942782—same as your friend.’
Then instantly after that, I got a message saying I owed a debt of $300, and my user was kicked out for 24 hours. I.WAS.SCAMMED.” I yelled the last part out in frustration.
“I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t say it right now” I say, after I calmed down a moment later.
