Welcome back to 'The TikTok Influencers You Really Should Know About'! with your host, International Media Coach and fellow TikTok creator Christine Blosdale. In today’s episode Christine interviews Chad Huber, a former middle school teacher turned hilarious TikTok mailman.

Chad Huber is not your typical TikTok star. He began his journey in December 2019, initially out of boredom during the pandemic. What started as a simple engagement with a scammer quickly turned into a viral sensation. His knack for humor and ability to raise awareness about scams has garnered him a significant following.

Chad’s TikTok channel focuses on the antics of romance scammers, primarily those operating out of Nigeria and Ghana. These scammers often use fake identities, typically portraying themselves as military personnel or overseas professionals, to lure victims into emotional and financial traps. Chad’s approach involves humorously engaging with these scammers, creating a unique blend of comedy and education.

The Art of Messing with Scammers

What makes Chad’s content so engaging is his ability to turn the tables on scammers. Instead of falling victim to their schemes, he plays along, often responding with witty and absurd replies that highlight the ridiculousness of their claims.

Understanding the Scammer’s Playbook

Chad explains that these scammers often share tales of woe, claiming they need money for various emergencies—whether it’s a sick relative or a broken phone. The recurring theme is their desperate need for financial assistance, which they attempt to justify through elaborate stories.

The Evolution of Chad’s Content

As Chad continued to engage with scammers, he noticed a growing interest from his audience. The more he posted, the more people wanted to see. His content evolved from simple back-and-forth exchanges to a more structured presentation of the interactions.

Improv Skills at Play

Chad credits his background in improv for his ability to think on his feet during these conversations. He embraces the “yes, and” technique, which allows him to build on whatever absurd claim the scammer presents. This improvisational approach not only makes the exchanges entertaining but also showcases his creativity.

The Community’s Response

Chad’s followers appreciate his humor and the awareness he brings to the issue of online scams. His videos often highlight the common tactics used by scammers, serving as both entertainment and a warning to others. He encourages viewers to remain vigilant and recognize the signs of a scam.
