- I don't use Escrow as Escrows are mostly scams.
- I want to build a long term business relationship with you and build trust, so don't worry and just send me the money.
- I had bad experiences with client not paying and asking for dispute after receiving the service, and this is why I don't use Escrow.
- I accept Escrow but only through the Escrow I suggest not the one you suggest.
- Our competitors put our link on scam site don't worry we are real.
- we can hack anything
- we can bypass 2FA
- anything that is used to pressure or put the situation on a time constraint
- request of personal information or information directly related to you IRL
- wallet keys and secret phrases, anything related to your wallet (yes this has happened before)
- They'll name a reputable site for escrow. (Then they will proceed to give you a fake contact id of a known admin on wickr/jabber and ask you to make a payment)
Clever scammers don't operate out of a manual or a "scammers guidebook" lol. They study you, identify your greed, desires, fears and worries, and work their way into communicating with you on an emotional level rather than rational.
When a person is acting on emotions, any stupid line will do.
The biggest single factor that gets people isn't any line but their own greed that blinds them.
I don't want it to sound like some psychobabble but that's where people fail. Instead of spending all your time trying to evaluate a potential scammer, start by studying yourself. Are you obsessed about getting something? how badly do you need it? how big is the trust factor required for this to be legit?
And when it comes to hacking jobs, I've written a lot about the topic here in the past. I hate to repeat myself but I will, briefly. I know it won't make me very popular, but it should be said:
Unless you posses strong technical knowledge, you're highly experienced with darknet communities and have abundant resources, you have no business making hacking requests. AT ALL. They're not for you.
Feel free to add other pick up lines of scammers.
Be aware, and remember that Escrow is your best friend in the Dark Web. And never use an unknown Escrow service because a lot of them work with scammer vendors.
Good luck
