I literally got harassing phone calls in the middle of the night from some dude in the USA who thought I had scammed him and he said he was going to fly to Canada and get me. He calmed down eventually and realized it wasn't me. Also had a bunch of angry emails over at goldgalleries.com and platinumgalleries.com from surfers because my whois was public.
Hate to stereotype but literally every event in my life where someone got scammed it has involved an Indian person! My Indian landlord tried to scam me just this summer when his phone was hacked and my etransfer for rent was intercepted by a "hacker" and then when I told him, "sorry, that's on you and your phone security" he told me "the money never was in my bank account, this is a you problem!" Like somehow his phone being hacked and the thief knowing the landlord well enough to guess the password is my fault.
Holy fuck, then when I worked managing a pallet yard before COVID, an Indian guy gave us a fake bank draft that looked 100% real to my boss and he foolishly accepted it without going to the bank first. Never saw or heard from them again, $20,000+ dollar load of repaired pallets vanished! Then back in like 2014-2015, I had been working on a compact automatic joint-roller the size of a like a portable hard disk drive... and the small devices engineer I hired with a friend took off with the seed money to build the first prototype, like $1200!
But hey... butter chicken is soooooo good... I don't actually mind. You take the Ws with the Ls in life.
