This is an interesting method, but it can definitely pay well for little work and takes very few resources to get started. I’ve done this twice and it’s worked both times… I actually somewhat knew the targets irl and they were family members of mutuals. The first time I got $20k XRP and the second time $50k BTC. All you need is a phone that can make calls, an account with https://fakecallerid.io, and a target that you’ve done some recon on. Fakecallerid allows you to spoof your number to appear someone else is calling your target.

You find a target that you know has crypto and kids (or other people in their life that they care about lol). You find both of their phone numbers… you can use something like https://truepeoplesearch.com or https://clustrmaps.com to find this. Then you call them from their loved one’s phone number. Be straight to the point. Say that you basically kidnapped and are going to torture and worse their loved one if they don’t pay up. Let them know that if they hang up, put you on hold, or even do so much as send anyone a text, you are going to whack their loved one. It pops up on the target’s phone as their loved one’s actual contact, but they would still be able to text and call their real number, so you must ensure this doesn’t happen. You are in control of this situation and this doesn’t take much skill to pull off. Obviously you have to make sure (or hope) that the target is not with their loved one.

This works best for older targets… both of my targets were over the age of 60.
