Is Snoskred Her Real Name?
No. Snoskred believes it is unwise to give out your real information on the internet at the best of times, but when you are a scambaiter it can be even more dangerous.

Why Doesn’t Snoskred Use Her Real Name?
The short explanation goes something like “I baited the Nigerian scammers, and they would love to know who I really am – they might end up on my doorstep”.
The longer explanation – too many details for most people! – is that three Nigerian scammers spent time in a South African jail cell, because of a sting that Snoskred was a part of. Snoskred had one Nigerian scammer arrested by the secret service in New York – he was deported from the US. Snoskred was also a part of a group who assisted the South African police in investigations including kidnapping of scam victims. And, Snoskred got some Nigerian Scammers to paint their faces, with butterflies. And a few other things, too..
Snoskred has collected over 5 million US dollars in fake cheques from the scammers. Generally in law enforcement circles it is believed that it costs the scammers 10% of the dollar value on the cheque – they have to pay that to the people who counterfeit the cheques. If that is true, Snoskred has personally cost them over half a million dollars.

Snoskred isn’t going to tell you that online. If you build a relationship with her and get to meet her someday, that is when you’d find out her real name.
