What does nSkid do?
This python scam baiting tool checks several Google search results pages for phone numbers reported to scam identification databases. It is a work in progress, but I plan to expand it at some point. nSkid currently only shows results for Amazon tech support scams and Microsoft tech-support scams.
You can choose to crawl numbers from the past day, past hour, or past week. Numbers from the past day is the suggested starting option. You can then narrow it to last hour if you get a lot of dead results.
nskid.py — output
nSkid running from the command line, listing scammer numbers pulled from recent scam reports.
Usage
Run it directly from the command line:
Python
nskid.py
python3 nskid.py
Always Double-Check
Please always double check the numbers are actual scammers and be nice to them. They’re still just people too. Also, please remember that the scammer’s change numbers often. So don’t assume the person is a scammer. They number hop a lot.
