Well, well, well .. what’s this..? A new app for me to scam more people with..? Isn’t that so great!
I suppose I should introduce myself .. I'm Dori Sangemah Bay, a traveling merchant. If you see me around, don’t be afraid to stop by! You know, new time customers get 10% off! ..haha.. I just Jack up the price by 30% and make them think they’re getting a bargain..
I see everyone in Sumeru is gathered around in this app and nobody bothered to invite me, little ol’ Dori?! Even kaveh .. I made kaveh, he wouldn’t be where he was if it wasn’t for me. The least he could do is invite me here! Or give me more mora.
Anyway .. basic dni as the kids say or whatever.. just give me mora and you can stay!

you’re probably wondering what that is.. and all I gotta say is.. it’s my very special classes where I talk about law related things, illegal activies and what not!
Today, we’re talking about scamming!
Now scamming is a very serious crime that’s been happening loads nowadays! Especially online.. and there are multiple types to it aswell!
There’s Phishing, In a phishing scheme, the scammer attempts to obtain private information from a victim by posing as a reputable entity in an email or other electronic communication. For example, the scammer may send you an email posing as a representative of a bank or other financial institution! (ahem.. stay safe kaveh..)
There’s Working at home , You've probably seen ads online for jobs that seem too good to be true. Unfortunately, most of them are. Although many companies are open to remote work or hybrid employment (where you can work from home certain days per week or month), pay attention to details in job descriptions.
Many work-at-home schemes require you to purchase expensive materials or pay upfront fees without providing you with the means to earn a living. They may be pyramid schemes or Ponzi schemes, requiring you to recruit others in exchange for a cut of the fees..
Health Care Fraud Schemes , The Department of Health and Human Services (i dunno some place.. somewhere >_>!) warned citizens about scams involving certain vaccine tests and services from early in the pandemic. The Department of Justice (some place in Fontaine!) has investigated and filed charges in several health care fraud scams involving billions of dollars.. thankfully we have free health care in sumeru!
There’s catfish scams, A "catfish" is someone who creates a fake social media account to pursue an online romance. Sometimes, catfish convince their victims to send money or gifts or pay for travel or other expenses.. Ahem.. I’ve had my fair share of this..
There’s all these prize scams, The internet is littered with pop-up ads telling you you've won an iPod or qualified for a free vacation. Are they telling the truth? Probably not. These "contests" often require you to pay certain fees or shipping costs to receive your "prize." Of course, there is usually no prize, and the perpetrators pocket the fees.. I might’ve fallen for this a couple times but shut up we don’t talk about it—!!
There’s also credit card scams, but I’m sure we’re all aware of those!
Ahem— needless to say, it’s very much illegal to scam people! And if you do, you’re getting set to jail.. sorry to break it to you! Also ahem.. I know snitching is bad but if you know anyone who happens to be a scammer, send em over to me.. I know exactly who to take them too! Oh yeah did you know you can go to jail for 20 YEARS, just for scamming?
And oh—! If you happened to be a victim of one of these scams, then talk to me! I can get you your money back, don’t even worry about it! Or I could get you their money and your own, they don’t deserve it if they scammed you, ya know? That’s definitely illegal but shh!
