QTCinderella reveals scary run-in with sex trafficking scam
Kitboga is known for pranking scammers, sometimes
livestreaming his hours-long phone conversations
with desperate and exhausted scam artists. While entertaining and satisfying for people sick of getting the calls themselves, Kitboga also highlights the more sinister side of scams to educate viewers, which can include sex trafficking.
QTCinderella told Kitboga that she was called while at work by someone who she believed to be someone from the IRS. The alleged representative claimed she owed a large amount in back taxes and would be arrested if it wasn’t immediately addressed.
The scammer knew significant personal information about QTCinderella revealed they were even tracking her cell phone. They told her to drive to her town’s federal courthouse, giving step-by-step instructions on how to get there, and she claimed that she was told not to hang up.
QTCinderella said that the call accidentally dropped, which was what ultimately saved her from a potentially dangerous situation. After the phone call dropped, QT went up to the bailiffs at the courthouse and said she was scared of being arrested. But security told her that this was a common tactic used by scammers who would get women into a parking garage, drag them into a vehicle, and then sell them into human trafficking.

Kitboga had some insight into the scam, explaining that scammers want you to “act quickly and not think.” If she had more time to think, QTCinderella likely would have realized that the attempt at victimizing her was just that.
