scamminator

Blocking a scammer is not enough. It is time to fight back.

Wouldn't be great if there was a tool that uses Artificial Intelligence to reply to a scammer on your behalf and waste their time?

This is exactly what scamminator does.

Scammers have a limited amount of time available and every second wasted trying to scam an Artificial Intelligence is a second not used to scam a real person.

How does it works?

scamminator has three components:

  • Telegram Client
  • Artificial Intelligence (DialoGPT)
  • Telegram Bot

The Telegram Bot is used to control the Telegram Client and tell it which chats to auto-reply using the Artificial Intelligence

Installation

Create a telegram bot using @botfather. You will need the API_TOKEN later on.

Clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/galatolofederico/scamminator.git && cd scamminator

Copy the .env template

cp .env.template .env

Edit the .env file and set your BOT_TOKEN and your BOT_PASSWORD

vim .env

Build the containers

docker-compose build

Run the Telegram Client and log in using your phone number and OTP

docker-compose run tg

After logging in you can quit the client with CTRL+D. You are now ready to fight scammers.

Usage

Run scamminator. The first run will require some time to download the DialoGPT model.

docker-compose up

You can now control scamminator using the bot you created.
