Here's a great one: Roulette Bot Plus. It's simple: in return for Paypal donations from your winnings, these guys will give you a free roulette-playing bot for online casinos. It allegedly takes advantage of the fact that their random number generators aren't actually random, which is pretty darned plausible!
But it turns out it's actually a scam by some of the online casinos. It'll look like it works for a while, then when you put your actual money into play, it'll go all-in and unfortunately lose. Ah, well - better luck next time!
On the one hand, I'd love to play with bots of this nature now that I don't live in the States (of course, my bank is still in the States...). But at the same time, this scam fascinates me. I know there are lists of scam patterns (like dark patterns) but it remains a goal of mine to encode them in a machine-readable and -executable manner. (Yes, I'm working towards humanity's demise. Ha.)
