1. "Keep reading or bad things will happen"
2. "Clean your PC now! Go to http://www.blahblahblah.com to get a free assessment!"
3. "Hook up with hot-" you know how it goes.
4. Skype bots (I don't get these a lot)
Oh and that guy who got like a dropbox link of 15 people's Minecraft account information and emails (etcetera) and posted here on the forums saying "i thik thes accontz r hakd!!!! plz pm my and i wil help u fix it!!!!!"

Those that say "I'm a 13-year old ghost, if you don't copy paste this... YOU WILL DIE!!! (DUN DUN DUUUN!)

Those fake Walmart ones where it's like "you're our 100th visitor! you have won a $1000 gift card to Walmart!!!"
And those generator/cheat engines that make you sell your soul to Satan and confirm your credit card # in order to get the cheats. I've tried literally everything to pass them but nothing works. It got to a point where I was using fake ID generator to generate a fake person. I even made a throw-away gmail account I only use for scammy/annoying stuff.
tl;dr
generators that claim to get you 23407832472308 gems in your game does not work, 110% a scam

Ok, so a few months ago i did staff recruitment for a server that is now dead, and one time one of the people i was recruiting claimed he owned the copyright to our servers name and we needed to pay him money. Now to explain what made this so stupid. First, The sum was ridiculously low for copyright royalties (somewhere between 100-200 dollars). Second, this guys skype had a profile pic that showed him being like 12, his location was in Sweden (yeah, a 12-year old Swedish guy owns an american copyright). Third, after I had looked it up and showed him that the servers name hadn't been copyrighted in over 10 years, he provided a photoshoped copyright certificate that when you look up the number on lead to a copyright on the name HB Homerun or something like that, which was no where near the name of the server.
1
LOL! Someone renamed their server to the same as our server. I ended up stopping the server that month anyway. I restarted my server under the name Bravo Delta MC about 6 months later xD, not he joined my server and told me he did so, and said if I paid him, he would rename his server.

Okay, I've been eyeing this post for a while. Here's one of the most hilarious scams I've ever recieved.
Hello, I'm a weight loss specialist from northern california. My scanners appear to reveal that you are overweight, you weigh 437.356 pounds precisely. My methods have been scientifically proven to yield satisfactory weight loss. The results will make your dick fly off your groin! Just install this video chat software *link to virus download*
and we can discuss the perfect weight loss plan for you!
Kind regards, Dr. El Chupacabra
No joke, that was literally the exact wording in the email.
Funny thing was the address the email came from was: dickoffgroin@gmail.com
Man, I've lost my hope in humanity now. I think that was just a joke, it was too ridicoulus to be real.

i love Skype bots, one tried to get me onto a webcam adult website (if you are under the age of 16 seriously stay away from those) and the guy got me onto voice chat, I am able to do various different voices and I pretended to be a seven year old and then I pretend that my mom walked in and called the cops XD then he freaked out and left.
