- 0:00Scammy scam, scammer tins. Did y'all know that scammers are
- 0:04narcissistic people? I feel like this is just my
- 0:06thoughts, y'all. I feel like that most, if not
- 0:09all scammers, people who willfully scam people are
- 0:12narcissists or highly narcissistic.
- 0:14And that's what we're going to talk.
- 0:16We, we're going to be talking about today.
- 0:17Y'all, we're going to dig into that how scammers are
- 0:20narcissists. If you're new here, my name is
- 0:22Lee Hammock. I'm a diagnosed narcissist, not
- 0:24a scammer. And we'll go to another episode
- 0:26of The Narcissist Code. Welcome back folks, welcome
- 0:46back, welcome back. Y'all know what I just noticed
- 0:49about yesterday's video? I did the welcome to the
- 0:52narcissist code thing on YouTube right?
- 0:55And I didn't put the intro in, I did it on, on, on my Spotify, on
- 1:00my Apple, but I didn't put the intro on on YouTube.
- 1:03So I was just like, welcome back and y'all didn't go anywhere.
- 1:07I'm glad I wasn't farting or throwing up and acting crazy
- 1:09when I was in, in my, in the, in the little interlude I saw.
- 1:13I just like, well, too late now. I got to leave it up.
- 1:15But yeah, y'all scammers. Yeah.
- 1:19First of all, let me say this right here.
- 1:20I hate scammers. Hate them with a raw seething
- 1:27passion, like if you the the rawest, most seething passion on
- 1:32the planet is that which what I with what I hate the scammers
- 1:35with because scammers scammers you, you go think about it right
- 1:39here. And This is why I say scammers
- 1:40are are narcissists because you have to go.
- 1:43You have to lack empathy to do that.
- 1:47You have to lack empathy in caring for other people in order
- 1:51to scam somebody, to willfully take, take, take somebody's
- 1:55money from them. You have to be devoid of empathy
- 1:58or truly lacking it in order to take stuff from someone else.
- 2:02You just yeah. And I just y'all can disagree
- 2:05with that, but I think most people would.
- 2:07Or is there the off chance? No, not even off chance.
- 2:11Is there the chance that the scammer is scamming because it's
- 2:15to feed their family or whatever the case may be?
- 2:17Yeah, that it could be. But still, even in that
- 2:20instance, you're not thinking about the people that you're
- 2:22taking from. What if the people that you're
- 2:24taking from don't have anything either?
- 2:26They're fighting tooth and nail, like, and you end up taking
- 2:29their last bit of money, you know what I'm saying?
- 2:32Money, money, money that they may or may not ever be able to
- 2:36get back. Yeah, You know what I'm saying?
- 2:39That's the type of stuff that happens realistically.
- 2:41So I think scammers are narcissists.
- 2:43Yeah, think about it right here. Scammers in order to get in like
- 2:47this to scam you, most times they have to go through the
- 2:50cycle of narcissistic abuse. The the, the scamming cycle
- 2:54looks like the cycle of narcissistic abuse, right?
- 2:56The simple, the simplistic cycle.
- 2:59Now I have a course called Understanding the seven stages
- 3:02of a Narcissistic abusive relationship, right?
- 3:04The cycle that's a mental illness.net.
- 3:07But for simplicity, we're going to do the four stages.
- 3:10The first stage of a narcissistic abuse cycle is love
- 3:13bombing scammers. Most times they have to get you
- 3:17to trust them, so they love bombing you.
- 3:19I call it, let's call it the scam bomb, the scam bomb, the
- 3:22little scam. What's another word for bomb?
- 3:25The scam detonate the scam bomb is this scam bomb, right?
- 3:30They have to scam you. They have to get you to fall for
- 3:33them in order to be able to scam you, right?
- 3:36And this happens. This is the truth right here.
- 3:38They scam you in order to get something from you.
- 3:41They really, they really, really do.
- 3:43They scam you to get you to fall for them, to get you to trust
- 3:45them, to get you to, to be vulnerable with them, right?
- 3:49And once you fall for them, once they get you scammed, they fully
- 3:52love bomb you or scam bomb you. That's when they pull the
- 3:55switch. Once they get what they want
- 3:57from you, that vital information, that credit card
- 4:00number, that address, that Social Security number, whatever
- 4:03they are trying to get from you, that payment, whatever they're
- 4:06trying to get from you, that's when you that's when you enter
- 4:08the next stage of the, of the relationship, the devaluation
- 4:11phase, right? You enter the, you enter the
- 4:15devaluation phase of a scamming relationship doesn't sound crazy
- 4:20of a scamming narcissistic relationship.
- 4:23You entered the devaluation phase, meaning that they take
- 4:26whatever they were offering you, whatever they would give you,
- 4:29they take it away from you, right?
- 4:32They take it away. They refuse.
- 4:35They they, they give you a fake tracking numbers.
- 4:36They do all kinds of stuff to keep you, to keep you involved
- 4:39with them or to keep you in, to keep you in, in, in, in the
- 4:42throws with them. They do all kinds of things.
- 4:45They absolutely do. And this is the mentality, this
- 4:48is the mindset a lot of narcissistic people do right
- 4:50here. That is what they absolutely do.
- 4:53They once they get what they want from you after the love
- 4:55bombing, they devalue you. They take it away or they
- 4:59disappear on you, right? And then the cycle of
- 5:02narcissistic abuse goes love bombing, devaluation.
- 5:06And then guess what, the discard phase they did by you.
- 5:10What's the scammer or the narcissist has gotten whatever,
- 5:14whatever they wanted from you. Narcissistic supplies scamming
- 5:17supply. They discard you, they get rid
- 5:20of you, they block you. You try to call the you try to
- 5:23call the customer service number and you get we're sorry.
- 5:27The number you trying to reach is no longer in service of being
- 5:28temporarily disconnected. You like what?
- 5:31We're sorry the number you you were like, what the hell?
- 5:33What happened? How we get here?
- 5:36You see, it follows the exact same psycho damn near.
- 5:41And so that's why I just say scammers are narcissists.
- 5:42Yeah, you could, I feel like some people can argue with me.
- 5:45You can you can argue with, argue with me on this point
- 5:47right here. But you also understand how true
- 5:50it is that these people are absolutely trying to scam the
- 5:54hell out of you. They're they're love bombing
- 5:55you. Scammers are narcissists, right?
- 5:58Well, Lee, what made you want to do like, let me let me go over
- 6:00the last cycle first. The last stage of the cycle of a
- 6:04narcissistic abuse relationship or scamming relationship is the
- 6:07hoovering. What I mean by hoovering is that
- 6:10they try to suck you back into the relationship.
- 6:13They try to come back into your life.
- 6:15Hey, the payment didn't go through.
- 6:17Maybe they maybe they didn't get what they wanted from you.
- 6:20Maybe they feel like they can get more from you.
- 6:22Maybe they can just say, oh, sorry my my company shut down,
- 6:25but I'm here to help you and they scammed you again.
- 6:27You entered the scamming cycle again, right?
- 6:31You into the scamming cycle of a narcissistic abuse relationship
- 6:35again and it becomes very difficult to get out of it.
- 6:37In this cycle can continue on as long as it can.
- 6:40As long as the scammer or the narcissist is getting something
- 6:44from you, they will keep coming back around.
- 6:46If they feel like they have a gullible target or vulnerable
- 6:48target, they will keep coming back into your life.
- 6:51They will keep messing with your head.
- 6:53They will do whatever it takes and whatever is necessary to
- 6:56continue down this path of being disruptive towards you.
- 6:59They will absolutely do this. This is the mentality that you
- 7:03will face against right here y'all and I already know if
- 7:07people want to ask me lately what motivates you to do this
- 7:09video? What why?
- 7:10Why you have scamming on the brain?
- 7:12Because believe it or not, I got scammed recently.
- 7:20Well, not even recently. This is last year y'all and I'm
- 7:22still I'm still dealing with it right now.
- 7:24I guess when I was on I do a little bit of acting right?
- 7:27I was in Knoxville, TN to film an episode of For my For My Man
- 7:33or Fatal Attraction. Was one of them Fatal Attraction
- 7:35or For my Man, right? I don't know.
- 7:37Some of y'all been commenting on there asking me have y'all seen?
- 7:39Was it me on the show? Yeah, I've been on the show
- 7:41before, right. So I was on For my Man or Photo
- 7:44attraction. I think it was Fatal Attraction.
- 7:46And in the hotel room in the middle of the night, I got an
- 7:49e-mail and somebody had my somebody had hacked my Facebook.
- 7:54And then they got into it again later on, a couple of months
- 7:57later, they got into it again, sending me an e-mail from
- 8:00Facebook e-mail. They spoof Facebook e-mail
- 8:02address, send me an e-mail from Facebook, got and phished my
- 8:04account, got started spending money running my debit cards,
- 8:08running my credit cards up, started doing a whole bunch of
- 8:10shit, like literally sent me back a bunch of money.
- 8:15They took off my page on my Facebook page for a while.
- 8:18And, you know, they think those people cared.
- 8:20They didn't care. They were blocking people.
- 8:22They were talking shit to people.
- 8:23They were hurting people's feelings.
- 8:24They were taking money from me, taking inboxing people, trying
- 8:26to take money from there. You think those people cared?
- 8:28No, they were narcissistic. Those people were damn near
- 8:31evil. Like you have to be damn near
- 8:33devoid of empathy to go after somebody, a content creator or,
- 8:37or an older folk. So these, yeah, these people go
- 8:39out to our parents or grandparents or great
- 8:41grandparents for the Social Security or their, their, their
- 8:45retirements or their four O 1 KS.
- 8:46Hey, you have a gift card. I can see you.
- 8:49I need you to upload $20,000 on this gift card.
- 8:52How much money do you have? 40,000 I need 40,000 cards.
- 8:55I need $40,000 on the cards, please.
- 8:57But that's all my money's. That's all my money.
- 9:00If you don't give me the $40,000, you're going to get
- 9:02arrested, you're going to go to jail.
- 9:04And then you send the money over and they disappear.
- 9:06They go spend the money on some bullshit and you think those
- 9:09people are you think those people have any lick of empathy,
- 9:11any lick of regret unless they get in trouble.
- 9:14No. And This is why I say a lot of
- 9:17times you'll see these people online flexing their wealth as
- 9:19well. Y'all scammers are the most
- 9:21narcissistic them. They're the most narcissistic
- 9:24people on the planet because they'll be scamming and they'll
- 9:27be bragging online about what they have right, Not even
- 9:30helping people. They'll be lying.
- 9:32Like lying like This is why I never I try my hardest not to
- 9:36get jealous of people, people that I see online because a lot
- 9:41of times that stuff is fake. Man, these people be faking the
- 9:44funk, maybe scamming, taking money from people for a living
- 9:47and faking like hell on social media.
- 9:51Go watch a Ray William Johnson. He just did a video about the
- 9:55guy a hush puppy. The scammer hush puppy from I
- 9:57think it's from Nigeria, Nigerian scammer bragging about
- 10:01all the money he had. I think he's a Nigerian.
- 10:04If he wasn't Nigerian, I'm sorry South Africa.
- 10:06I don't forget what ethnicity it was but yeah y'all see it like
- 10:11scamming? Like here bragging about his
- 10:12life. I'm doing so much scamming.
- 10:15Hundreds of millions of dollars scamming, taking money from
- 10:18corporations and people. Well, Lee is a victim.
- 10:20Scamming is a victim of this crime.
- 10:22So how can people like nobody actually gets physically hurt
- 10:25when you scam them. So how can it be a bad thing?
- 10:27Because people lose their financial sometimes.
- 10:29Sometimes they lose their financial freedom.
- 10:31Imagine your grandparent being scammed out of their retirement
- 10:35fund. They can't recover it and then
- 10:37they have to go back to work at 75 or 80 years old after being
- 10:40retired for 5/10/15 twenty years.
- 10:44You see what I'm saying? What happens then?
- 10:46So that's all you're saying. These scammers don't care about
- 10:48the end result. They care about getting their
- 10:50scamming narcissistic supply or something that makes them feel
- 10:53better in these instances and whatnot.
- 10:55They don't care about what they who they hurt.
- 10:57They just care about what they're going to get.
- 10:59They don't give a damn about people Like scammers are
- 11:02absolutely some of the most horrible people on the planet.
- 11:05And yes, they are absolutely narcissistic.
- 11:07Well, Lee, are you a scammer? You're a narcissist and you're a
