I just want to know where the AI girlfriend is that will help me fight all
the spammers that are constantly attempting to attack me.
I once loved scam baiting people, thinking it would do some good, but now
it is just all AIs. I get calls, emails, texts.... many times a day, from
entities claiming to be from coinbase.com, gmail.com, robinhood.... people
claiming someone is trying to take over my account using various methods.
Some of them are quite convincing, and they know everything about me and my
accounts. It is frustrating, because I did get one legitimate email from
one exchange that I needed to address. So it is very time consuming to
know the difference and not miss the valid notifications.
I can't wait till police authorities can have powerful enough AI
girlfriends to track all of this kind of stuff and shut it all down, put
them in jail, or even better, reverse scams them, DOS or whatever if they
are someplace like North Korea) when anyone attempts this.
