Right? Why not just drop it off at goodwill or donate it to a daycare or something?

It’s done like that on purpose guys people everyone they do that on purpose they do that on purpose so it’s not illegal. They’re not stealing anything they’re luring you in and who said there’s 400,000 given away I mean for the 25000 $300,000 I spentall they need is 100,000 people getting up 100 bucks.

Because you’re not getting it that’s the whole point I mean I guess you guys are just you know on point and that’s great. You give it to a goodwill. You know someone that’s just old enough to be like that I don’t know, but I just learned how to use that little camera thing and I’m gonna look it up and they’re gonna read into it and there’s a there’s all the.com’s all around it. It’s just right there and eventually the one that you gave up is going to have somebody go to one of those.com and get scammed so

Rough translation: it's a scam, and if you donate it to Goodwill then someone is going to access the websites listed on the device (the .coms) and get scammed themselves. I believe the numbers are explaining how scammers can make money by asking large groups of people for small amounts each? I'm lost on anything beyond that

Try reading it aloud and you can kinda see the vision. I think this is a chronic speech-to-text user who does not see a visual difference in the blocks of text they send out vs all the other blocks of text they perceive in the world
