Speaker 1: Moojo on the morning show. So they're getting catfished. Who's
Speaker 1: getting catfish? Now?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have to be a little careful with this
Speaker 2: because it's a medical office. But I have a relative
Speaker 2: who works in a medical office, and it's an office
Speaker 2: where she sees they see this person semi regularly, like
Speaker 2: the patients come in on a regular basis. So she
Speaker 2: has been getting to know the patients, and one patient
Speaker 2: has consistently talked about a man that they were seeing
Speaker 2: that lived in a foreign country. And this woman is
Speaker 2: showing her pictures of the man that my friend knows
Speaker 2: are definitely AI photos.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: It has escalated to the point where she is taking
Speaker 2: out loans because she believes that she is going to
Speaker 2: get this man to move to our country to live
Speaker 2: with her. And my friend who works at the office
Speaker 2: does not know how to help this woman out because
Speaker 2: of hippolaws and things like that. Her people that are
Speaker 2: above her in the office are like, no, you can't
Speaker 2: get involved in their lives. You can't get involved in
Speaker 2: their lives. But she's sitting here like, this woman is
Speaker 2: clearly getting scammed. She's showing me photos that are AI photos.
Speaker 2: She's taking out loans to send to this man to
Speaker 2: get him to the United States. Like, she doesn't know
Speaker 2: how to help in this.
Speaker 3: Why can't she just say you're getting scammed? Are they?
Speaker 3: Are you not allowed to do that at a medical office.
Speaker 2: For whatever reason she said that, The doctor over her
Speaker 2: was like, you just can't get him, You.
Speaker 1: Can't get involved. Yeah, because I don't know why you
Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to too, because obviously your hope is the
Speaker 1: person's well being, right.
Speaker 2: What if that person gets angry at the office.
Speaker 3: I'm just thinking about like every doctor and dentist appointment
Speaker 3: that I go to, we like we chitchat about a
Speaker 3: whole bunch of things, including like what's going on in
Speaker 3: my life and stuff. So that's why why couldn't she
Speaker 3: say anything?
Speaker 1: Well, her doctor obviously is pretty uh, it's pretty buttoned
Speaker 1: up about what he wants them to do and what
Speaker 1: doesn't want them to do. But I always wonder who
Speaker 1: these people are that fall for this thing. Is just
Speaker 1: like an older.
Speaker 2: Lady, Yeah, it's an older woman. And the pictures of
Speaker 2: the man I'll see if I can find them. It's
Speaker 2: a very young looking gentleman.
Speaker 1: Really, she likes the young guys. Yeah, can I tell
Speaker 1: you the funniest is the I don't know. I send
Speaker 1: Chelsea all the time like this is pretty funny, and
Speaker 1: it's like some kind of Instagram thing that I see
Speaker 1: or something, and she goes, it's Ai, It's Ai, And
Speaker 1: I go, God, she deflates me so much when I
Speaker 1: because I get so excited over something that happened, and
Speaker 1: it's like a story, you know, about a person that
Speaker 1: does something weird and to go it's obviously I. I
Speaker 1: think I would be the person that would fall for.
Speaker 3: There going to be sending somebody money that you've never met. Like,
Speaker 3: that's where my brain wants to explode.
Speaker 1: Honestly, if I was a single person and I was lonely,
Speaker 1: I probably would.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you're a little desperate, Andy, what's going on?
Speaker 1: Andy?
Speaker 4: Oh god, you guys already know who I am. That's
Speaker 4: loved Okay, so, uh, double's advocate. What if it weren't
Speaker 4: like a therapist and this person were saying it to
Speaker 4: a therapist, would hip the laws apply in that situation too?
Speaker 1: I know that thought. I don't know that that is interesting.
Speaker 1: I would think as a therapist you'd be able to
Speaker 1: have to say to them you know you should double
Speaker 1: check and triple check that this is actually a real person.
Speaker 1: I'm sure people go to their therapist.
Speaker 4: Why they couldn't do that, you know?
Speaker 1: I think if I was a therapist, Andy, I would
Speaker 1: say to anybody, Hey, I met this guy online. Do
Speaker 1: you know you really met somebody? Like I think catfishing
Speaker 1: is so prominent, I would probably want to just speak
Speaker 1: up and say something like let me see and ask
Speaker 1: that question and see if they'll show it to you.
Speaker 1: What's up, Nicole?
Speaker 5: Uh, Yes, this actually happened to my father. He wh
Speaker 5: met somebody online I think it was on Facebook and
Speaker 5: was speaking to this person, which was a woman I
Speaker 5: guess you ever know, and he ended up sending her
Speaker 5: money and I guess she was gonna come to the US.
Speaker 5: But it never happened until he told one of us,
Speaker 5: my sister or I, and we were like, yeah, this
Speaker 5: is not real, Like you cannot send money to people that.
Speaker 1: You don't know, and what did your dad do?
Speaker 5: He ended up stopping because we were like, it's the internet, dude,
Speaker 5: they just make up whatever, and they scammed the older
Speaker 5: people all the time.
Speaker 1: How much money did dad send.
Speaker 5: That He ended up sending close to ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Man. And you know, I'm assuming your dad was your
Speaker 1: Is your dad a pretty knowledgeable guy? Is he smart?
Speaker 5: Oh? Yes, he's smart.
Speaker 1: Yeah you think you go, this is my dad. I
Speaker 1: think my dad's smarter than this. But love takes over,
Speaker 1: you know, it's weird. Yeah, definitely, that's sad. I'm sad
Speaker 1: to see that happen. But it's good that you guys
Speaker 1: were there for your dad just to stop it from happening.
Speaker 1: I always believe it's not really a person that and
Speaker 1: he is like even a woman on the other end,
Speaker 1: I think it's the same guy that masturbates a target
Speaker 1: that it's like you know what I mean, Like it's
Speaker 1: the same type of people that have like these weird
Speaker 1: fetishes or something like that, or weird. They're weird, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of scrammers. What's going on? Or they're former salespeople
Speaker 1: from iHeartMedia? What's going on?
Speaker 5: Heather?
Speaker 1: Are you doing?
Speaker 6: I'm good? How are you good?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: We're talking about Anna's friend here? What are your thoughts? So?
Speaker 6: Like, I had a co worker like several years ago.
Speaker 6: It wasn't one where like he was trying to bring
Speaker 6: someone over, but it was one of those email scans
Speaker 6: that before he knew it, like everything was gone. His
Speaker 6: house was gone, his car was gone. He had hundreds
Speaker 6: of thousands of dollars of loans and we could not,
Speaker 6: Like we kept trying to tell him this. No, no
Speaker 6: one in Uganda wants to help you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you Ghana. And I mean I couldn't even
Speaker 1: put you Ghana on a mask. I know, yeah, but
Speaker 1: I wouldn't know where in Africa it is. You know,
Speaker 1: it's amazing that we don't have regulations that stop these
Speaker 1: people from doing this stuff. Shelley, what's up, Shelley, how
Speaker 1: you doing?
Speaker 7: I'm good, thank you. I work for a financial institution
Speaker 7: and we are actually trained for to look for things
Speaker 7: like this and tell them that they're being scammed and
Speaker 7: advocate for them and help them. I don't think it's
Speaker 7: a privacy policy for the dentist office or a doctor's office.
Speaker 7: It's their actual just common courtesy duty to say something.
Speaker 3: I think that's just one of them.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's wrong.
Speaker 1: It's obviously it's the doctor that doesn't want to have
Speaker 1: a patient be lost. But here's the deal. If they
Speaker 1: get scammed out of all their money, they're not going
Speaker 1: to have the money to be able to come and
Speaker 1: go to you as a doctor anymore.
Speaker 7: Right, Oh, it's so sad they wouldn't tell her. Actually,
Speaker 7: somebody who's elderly, you know, they're on a fixed income.
Speaker 1: It's awful, Shelley. You know the show, right, you know
Speaker 1: Mojo on the Morning show. Absolutely out of all of us.
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna say all the names myself, Mojo, Shannon,
Speaker 1: keV Anna Bianca and Lydia and Zach and Zach out
Speaker 1: of all of us. I want you to tell me
Speaker 1: three people that you think would more than likely get
Speaker 1: scammed for some AI person trying to scam us? Which
Speaker 1: ones do you think?
Speaker 7: Zach Bianca and Oh my goodness, I don't know who
Speaker 7: the other one would be?
Speaker 1: Come on, maybe you Mojo, go ahead, that's all right,
Speaker 1: you can say it. I'd probably get scammed. All it
Speaker 1: takes is a little TNA. You show me a little DNA,
Speaker 1: and I'm giving you my life savings here.
Speaker 7: Well, I would advocate for you, Mojo.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Jelly. I appreciate you help me at my
Speaker 1: I don't know what the institution you work for, but
Speaker 1: hopefully it's my thank you for the call. I appreciate it.
Speaker 3: I just won't let you know.
Speaker 1: I'm not that dumb. I create AI images, honestly, all right,
Speaker 1: thank you, you create AI images. But you would definitely
Speaker 1: fall for some kind of a scam person. Come on, Bianca,
Speaker 1: never beyond. Bianca just goes for a guy with a smile,
Speaker 1: a guy with a smile, and she's like in love.
Speaker 3: Right, oh yeah, let me take our call. But no,
Speaker 3: I only have one guy love, only that.
Speaker 2: Love.
Speaker 1: How do we know he's real? How do we know
Speaker 1: he's real.
Speaker 3: Because you've said a something Mojo, but he's not.
Speaker 1: I set it up. It's a scam. He's AI. Oh
Speaker 1: he's a bot, He's a total bot. Yeah,
