Jim lives in scammers head rent free, they DO NOT LIKE Jim Browning at all, lol that means Jim is really doing a good job 👍 Thank God for Jim and all scambaiters for fighting the fight ❤️
I have been binging his videos from the start to the most recent. He has become a better interrogator and negotiator, nicer to the victims and terrifying to the scammers
@@ColorlessGuitaristRight?! That's what thought, too! *He went OFF* & _that guy SO HAD IT COMING!!_ It was *ABSOLUTELY EPIC* & I ♥️🥰♥️ every bit of it!😂👏😂 Keep it up, Jim! 🥊🥊Get 'em!!!🥊🥊
I have zero respect for anyone that scams and takes advantage of the elderly. My grandfather once received a call from a scammer, saying that his grandson just died in a car accident and they needed money for the funeral. This sounds ridiculous to many, as this is never how funerals and contacting family about passed loved ones, but for someone with dementia, it pulls on their emotions and literally messes them up. The scammers said my name to him, mentioned my parents, and my wife, and said just enough to make it sound real. He thankfully didn't give any money, as he was no longer at the state of mind to handle his finances, and his daughter was the power of attorney taking care of it all, but it still messed up my grandfather for a good while. called my phone, thinking he was calling my brother, and when I said it was me, he kept saying that no, he's dead, I was told he's dead, and I had to do everything to try and calm him down and reassure him that I am myself, and I am not dead. Had to leave work early just to see him in person.
I often wonder how much the actual workers know. Now obviously some of the more malicious scams where they’re actively editing html code and tricking people to get gift cards, those people are clearly aware and criminally inclined. But these tech support ones where they’re charging for fake software installation and fake software scanning it’s possible the day to day phone folks don’t realize it’s all smoke and mirrors because they are actually doing SOMETHING. I have no idea what any of this stuff Jim explains in this video means so if I started working there at that scam center and the boss told me to run x and install y when you see xyz and charge x amount of dollars I’d probably just shrug and go “if you say so” thinking I’m just doing a tech job.
@@RAKITHA9 That's the calm one. But with "literally, I'll kill you". Jim was like, "Jesus, stop it guys. What is wrong with your morale? Do you guys feel better when people suffering because of you?"
My 64 year old mom got scammed the other day trying to pay her AT&T bill and she accidentally went to a site that just claimed to connect to her account, but actually just stole $250 from her and tried to get more, but the bank blocked it. I sent her some of your basic videos on avoiding scams and she said you make it so easy for her to understand what to look out for despite her not being very computer literate. So thank you, Jim. Because of you my mom now knows what to look out for and she's much more cautious.
And this is why I insist on paper bills and use the information on that to pay. That way I cannot get scammed unless they are stupid enough to send paper bills :)
@@HonestLettuce nope. They reimbursed her that money and 'investigate' the source of the scammer, most likely shutting down their transaction channels which is but a hindrance to their menace.
Just yesterday an older lady came into my work complaining about some money she had to send Amazon. After a couple questions, I could tell it was the classic refund scam. I told her to call her bank and verify what the people on the phone were telling her. It was easy for me to spot this as an obvious scam because of you and channels like yours. Another scam stopped because of you Jim. Thanks for all you do.
good job for letting her know whats up. I always tell my grandma all the scams ive heard of, and luckily she has no dementia and knows better than to accept anything on the phone if she doens't know the person. its fortunate she never wants to touch a computer and hasn't.
I feel so bad for laughing, but when the scammer had done "firewall damaged..... 2%" in the command prompt, I just imagined a firewall that works like Star Trek shields.
It is scary how untruthful the scammer is. Even when he is confronted by somebody with knowledge he takes around and doesn't give in. Somebody without knowledge has no chance.
It is useless to argue with a fool(scammer). Talk with the wise(Jim browning) and become wiser. Walk away from fools(scammer) by blocking them, ignoring them, and making friends with the wise(Jim Browning) by calling them for help.
It is so deeply wrong that web advertising services allow scammers to buy ad space for pop-ups, etc. They need to be held accountable for what gets shown as ads on web sites
Yep, there are scam official ads on both TH-cam and Google. Like they're so good at blocking particular text in comments but can't detect blatantly obvious scam ads
@@clairecadoux471 In Australia a “bastard” can simultaneously be any of these things: an idiot (stupid bastard), a great man (excellent bastard), a funny man (hilarious bastard) or scum of the earth ($&@ing bastard) 😜
My dad got scammed once for a couple grand so this sort of justice is close to my heart. Keep it up Jim! The more you bother them the less time they have to scam vulnerable people.
My grandfather was scammed last year. He only lost $100 from a playstation giftcard. I was at work and I was able to IMMEDIATELY recognize, approach, and deny the scammer's further actions because of people like you Jim and Kitboga. Thank you so much for what you do. We could have lost everything. Much love.
@@lemonacidrounds7293 fairly racist assumption. I work for a bank and we have oversea support in India. I also talk with a lot of legitimate businesses who outsource to India
As someone from Northern Ireland, I feel profound admiration to see one of my own people doing something so virtuous. And this video in particular shows you can't be verbally destroyed any more thoroughly than in our accent.
Jim: You have scammed my grandfather. Scammer: No sir, we installed a firewall. Jim: "I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking to scam I can tell you I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you refund my grandfather now that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you, but if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you."
Yea it's sad they scammed my grandfather, since he is older they managed to spook him a bit and he thought he actually did have to pay the requested amount and paid, but oh well. You live and you learn
The part when Jim was being super stern and calling that idiot out for scamming his "grandfather" gave me the same vibes as when the super nice and friendly teacher expresses their disappointment in how everyone acted and you just feel a mix of sad/nervous 😔 Great job Jim!

This video perfectly highlights what an amazing, empathetic and principled person you are Jim. I wish my grandmother had seen these videos 5 years ago. Doesn’t hurt that your NI accent is like caramel either. All the best with your future baiting. Thanks for everything you’ve done.
I don't understand why they even bother arguing with Jim. They know they're scamming, they know everything they say will be proved wrong, and they're wasting their scamming time talking to him.
@@scottlarson1548 Because Jim REALLY got in their meat, and they have absolutely no instinct on how to proceed. A good analogy is a rat when a mink gets into their nest (shout out to Joseph "Mink Man" Carter). The aggression and systematic dismantling of their arguments frazzles them to hell and back.
I am a senior citizen and consider myself reasonably tech savvy. However, I ALWAYS contact my son, who is much more tech savvy than me, if I am unsure about anything, just to be on the safe side! Thank you Jim for fighting these b*stards on our behalf. ❤️
I love how these have evolved from scammer baiting for education and entertainment to positive action, getting people their money back and shutting down the scammers. Kudos to you and everyone doing similar work
So glad guys like Jim are on our side! Thank you for not only vital information but standing up for our older generation that saldy are the focus of these scammers
Jim sounded legitimetly angry, as if he were that man's grandson. Not sure if its 'acting' as its not hard to get mad at lying scammers, but channeling that to fill a role was still super impressive. Great work as always.
Jim "Dark Knight" Browning's anger is understandable, especially given all he has seen and victims he's spoken with. Yet his focus in the call was unwavering. Jim is doing great things. Respectfully . . . the "character" of Jim's voice might more likely have been the victim's son. B-)
I don’t think it’s acting. He talked to that poor old man, who was so kind and even apologetic for talking slow, and then heard how confused and betrayed the sweet gramps felt over being scammed. Seeing such a kind, helpless person be taken advantage of by someone they trusted; is enough to get most people’s blood boiling. Then add on top that the scammer tried to *lie to his face*. No way that anger is just an act.
A member of my extended family used to work at Staples, and he said they had elderly people coming in all the time to buy gift cards to pay these clowns. Fortunately, the company (at least where he worked) was well aware of the scam, and he and other store employees were able to dissuade many from purchasing the gift cards. THANK YOU JIM for all you do!
Retail and bank employees are increasingly aware of these scams, I work at a Target and we try, with varying degrees of success, to stop a scam in progress at least once a week.
You got me thinking... if I ever need a different job or to supplement one of the stores they want gift cards from would be a good place to start if only to be able to attempt to discourage the card buying when it seems suspicious. How satisfying that would be!
I feel like I've seen more and more of these lately at the store I work at. Sometimes a retail worker warning them is enough to save them, but sometimes the victims get mad at US for dating to imply they're being scammed.
@@DraykonVokelda Where I work we regularly get the scam victims we failed to convince come back in to complain to US that they lost their money, they actually think we're somehow in on the scam that we specifically warned them was a scam and told them not to participate in.
@@asteroidrules yup, that's why so many scammers on these videos always say, "oh, don't talk to any bank employees or the "hacker" will figure it out and steal all your money" because they know the bank employees will spot it almost immediately and stop them.
👏 This is one of the best Jim videos I have seen. I always want him to be angrier than he is. I love the combination of calmness and controlled anger. Such a shame these evil scammers need to be blurred.
Wow, this is the first time I can recall where Jim showed us the audio of a call where he was actually PISSED off! When such an admirable man such as Jim Browning gets ticked off, you know those scammers are in for it! I totally respect you, Jim. Hats off to you and all you do! You may not be able to save all these poor people from being scammed, but you certainly have done far more than your share!
Came here to say the same thing. When his voice got sharp, it made my blood run cold. And then when he said, "Oh, I'll find it out" (about the company's address), I got a second chill. Jim Browning is in a league of his own.
Won't lie, my same thought. Like normally Jim is fairly composed and level, even if you can tell he is not happy, however this 100% feels like a whole other level!
It really is heartbreaking to see all the poor people these scammers have stolen money from. Thank you so much for all of the people you have saved and all the awareness you have spread!
You can tell he genuinely cares about the victims by his interactions with the scammers. I'm still waiting for the day when his Marvel-style origin story comes out of how his grandfather fell victim to a tech scam and ever since then, he's vowed to dismantle every scam operation. Haha
I love how professional Jim Browning is without necessarily being extremely insulting about their accent, name-calling, or cursing (even though I know these scammers, damn well deserve it). New sub!!!!
Its like saying to a politician “you would be a terrible president” and his answer is “how can I know you will be a good president?” Clearly unrelated stuff, we are talking about the scammer, not the client, lol
this was honestly my favorite part from the scammer XDDD reminded me of that Key and Peele skit where hes like "shoot me ill deflect the bullets. Deflected....." lool
The fact that that Jim has been doing this for so long and this is the first time we've heard him raise his voice says a lot. It must be so hard listening to these criminals scam vulnerable people.
I actually needed to backtrack a bit, since I thought it really was his grandfather. That was what I thought would be the reason for him raising his voice, which as you say, he rarely does, but it turns out he just had enough that day. When a quiet and calm man starts raising his voice, you listen.
Jim is living cloud-cuckoo-land for believing his intervention to stop a scam is protecting so called vulnerable ones of our society, they clearly don’t understand Jim’s intervention, These people should be left to their own devices to allow the social Darwinism take its course and then only we will prevail with survival of the fittest.
Trying to have a conversation with these people is like talking to a wall. They make no sense, talk in circles, lie. They can't even lie correctly! I'm assuming it's a language barrier issue, but it's still hilarious.
It’s not a language issue. They lie. They are evil. They talk in circles to try and lie their way out of responsibility. They understand they are lying. They are useless garbage fit for burn pit.
@redlandz1977 Right. What I meant by the language barrier is that we say something, and then they come back with some lie that makes no sense. Like they didn't understand what we said, so they can't match the response with whatever lie they have in their repetuar.
Does anybody else feels like Jim should be funded by the government, get a whole floor of a police department with a whole bunch of workers? Coz I think he's doing more good than the police themselves.
sadly i don't think they would be able to as they are so contained by the laws (even against thieves...sigh) and i think the scammers rely upon this.. it is terrible... but i wonder (not trying to complain about him... i luv what this guy does) if he is breaking laws that these scammers reply on... it hurts my head trying to double or to triple think these guys ..... as much as i would luv to see that - that the gov would send him resources etc, that is not likely to happen - as much as they may actually enjoy seeing him chastise scammers they can't help... i really wish they could or would...
@@albertbresca8904 Wich just shows that, at least in some cases, vigilantes operating outside of legal restrictions can actually benefit society. Imho, this guy is the perfect example of DIY-justice done right.
@@MoreImbaThanYou on watching this video a few days after it was released i realised we'd gotten no scam calls for a few days ... and that lasted til the end of the week - just as they said - they had closed the scam call centre down for a week.... it was almost pleasant again to answer the phone (I usually get a couple of recorded scam calls a day.. ) .. nice to see these guys are actually nice vigilantes .. and though they do some things that may be illegal they stay very much on the side of the law and right by society.... so good to see.... you'd think with all this bad publicity the indians government would actually crack down on this kind of thing - but then again why should the as it brings money (quite a lot) into their economy with very little outleigh.. bad for us but good for that country....
Cops also do a lot of stuff to prevent scams but unfortunately they are not free like a youtuber to do anything and also if they catch any organisation they don't make a yt video to show it.
Unfortunately In the world we live in, its easier to drone bomb innocent women, children and men without a warrant, without any oversight and most importantly without any consequences and when same people ( the govt) tells me that they are not able to get a bunch of scammers in a country who wants to get rid of them, my BS radar goes up i e they don't stop these scammers because its not in their interest to do so
I've taught my mom how to recognize scammers on the Internet. She's old, she's never touched a computer before 2010 and the first thing is that she believes anything she sees (adware etc), she's unfortunately fall to one scam (wich is where I've decided to teach her the basic stuff), the damage is kinda done because sometimes others scammers with random numbers are still trying to scam her because she has her number but now she leads the conversation before hanging up the phone like a boss ! Thanks for your videos Jim ! They're very informative and entertaining !
How to avoid scammers? 1) Indian accent = hang up 2) Any unknown stranger talking about your computer, wanting money, or asking personal details (especially financial) = hang up
I used to work in the visa chargeback department in a bank, the amount of customer that are affected by scams like these are in the thousands daily, more often than not they are elderly victims, like Jack. Nice work Jim!
I always wondered what happened at your level, when you discover someone was scammed. I work in Fraud for a very large telecommunications company, where fraudsters call our subscribers and pretend to be us, and promise big discounts for a one time payment. I naturally direct them to call their card company or bank to alert them about the compromised card.
Or the disabled. We're still trying to figure out how to stop the charges my homecare client is getting on their account. Their family is having to call the bank almost monthly to try to get bogus charges reversed. Client's social security was deposited on the first, even before anything was spent charges started coming off their card. When a family member got ahold of the bank the first time to see where all the money was going they found that this had been going on for several months sometimes a few times a day and there were no red flags issued with the bank.
Preying on the elderly, disgusting. You are just awesome, man. The way you handle things, and help people, and talk them through things, is so kind and caring. Keep it up, man.
On the bright side they won't be able to do it much longer. In 10-20 years the very large majority of people alive will be tech savvy enough to avoid these and the scammers will die out. It's only a matter of time, at this point their whole market is people like 65+. When people in their 30 right now reach that age this stuff won't work on them and so on.
@@abigbutterstick1780 there will be new more complicated tech. Tech is seriously going to advance so much going forward with new algorithms and all types of things like crypto, NFTs, metaverses, that people who think they know tech today will not understand
@@SharkAcademy It's not the tech that's the problem. A lot of people don't understand coding, firewalls, and computer maintenance/repair. But they still have the ability to recognize the scam. That's what's going to kill that industry because at the moment their victims are almost always people who grew up with little to no technology and the technology they did have was fixed in person by someone. Tomorrow I could get a call about something that I know virtually nothing about being wrong with my laptop and I'd still be able to recognize the scam and most people are the same. I don't think it will die out completely but I think being scammed will be very rare in the next couple decades.
Jim you have my utmost respect for what you do. It is really disgusting how these heartless crooks look so bloody smug. Their impotent Government's flagrant complacency needs addressing before more unsuspecting vulnerable persons are made to suffer. They're heartless.
Yea no, it's not complacency, people in their government are the ones running the vast scam networks. The only way to fight them would be for countries to run communications sanctions against them, but that would never happen becasue we have vested interests are just about as corrupt.
@@sqlevolicious Yes fair point. Since one trip to India, having only connected an Airport WiFi once with email, I'm bombarded with notices of non-payment, summons and urgent requests for my credit card details from even government domains!
Being a senior citizen, I find myself a target of a great many scammers, more domestic than foreign. They call me (I no longer answer the phone), they come to my house and give me inflated estimates for home repair jobs, they tell me they are fixing some terribly broken parts on my car. Of course, I walk away, but in wasting my time with these dishonest guys, I end up not getting something fixed that needs fixing. How I wish I could order one Jim Browning to call these fellas out for their thievery. They think because I'm older that I'm addle-brained. Not yet, buddy. I was working on computers when the disks were actually floppy and you had to know commands and how to manage a & b drives. Still, I have to put up with their assumptions. I'm so tired of people trying to rip me off.
same for younger people. we get all the same calls and we also get targeted with crypto scams and with international money exchange investment scams AND catfishing scams
@Lux Aeterna Believe me, hon. I do spread the word as do others in my circle. We have an online community forum on which we post incidents of scamming & plain old dishonest business practices. Sad that we have only ourselves to rely on with most of these situations--meaning, we can't go to the police or even elected representatives and expect any protection from them. Although, if I think a business has ripped me off, I will write a complaint to FTC or local consumer protection agency--all I've done is make a record, no one is going to jump up and interrogate the bad guy. This is not what I envisioned doing in my retired life.
Hello Jim just wanted to share that I work for a cable company in the states installing internet and since I started watching your videos every time I come across elderly customers I make sure to inform them of scams and educate them. Do to your content you have opened many eyes to the issues of scams keep up the great work!
I worked for a bank for a time and we had a few ways to try to keep customers uptodate with some of the current scams. What could be great is if cable/internet providers did this themselves. Do you think their is a chance to for you to help push your company to give move information to customers about current frauds?
I love that Jim and Jack even have similar accents, it’s so cute 🥺 I would totally believe they were grandfather and grandson! Sending love from Arkansas, keep up the amazing work!
I love that there are people out there like Jim to act as a digital vigilante against the baddies who target our elderly and tech-illiterate and rob them blind. It’s often the case that the best types folks get victimized in these. You rock!
Just like the moral from Batman, a vigilante does well to bring attention to something, but a vigilante alone can't fix or even fight a problem that's as large as a city, let alone one spanning the globe.
Jim grilling the scammer on Firewall being at 2% was the highlight.... every elderly person should watch one of more of these videos to understand how scammers operate
I already showed his videos to my parents a while back. It's way easier to understand by watching the video than verbal explanation so it's pretty cool that these videos are available.
@@dustscythe7702 Not sure they were stopped. Jim can call them out but it's the local police that needs to act to actually stop them. And I remember reading that the branch of Indian police that deals with cybercrime is understaffed and underfunded and often doesn't have the resources to go after most of these people. And even when they get them, the battle just begins and the lawyers get into action (and I'm sure these scammers have lawyers as well). And since these scams often happen over borders, I can imagine the cases being quite complicated.
I work in Fraud for a very large company. Scammers call our subscribers and promise discounts for a one time payment. I always gather as much info as possible for our back office folks. I did decide to call one of the scammers one time, and I told him 'I know what you are doing. I have told (customer) not to pay you.' It didn't faze the Indian scammer at all, he proceeded to start a string of cursing at me. They know I stopped one scam, but they just move on to the next one. It's whack-a-mole.
Unfortunately, the sad reality of the world is that the reason scam centers exist in India is that the government refuses to take meaningful action against them. They'll make show arrests but the bosses pay their incredibly cheap bail and are back opening new companies a month later.
He has a real dad voice😂 like he's calm but you automatically feel like this 7 year old kid that fucked up and is about to die The only thing scarier than this is when mom gets the shoe
As someone who dabbles in networking-related software, I'm dying at the "2% of firewall remaining" concept, like some kind of defence mechanisms in a video game.
“Captain Kirk, sir! We have a problem, sir!” Yells random redshirt number 22 from his station at the {defensive system control station}. “What is it that it’s so important right now, trooper. Can’t you see that we’re under attack?” “It’s the firewall, sir! It’s at 2%!” *A giant, holographic forcefield-esque shield surrounding the ship glows concerningly dimly and flickers*
Dude… this just happened to my 74 year old grandma last Christmas… they took $4,000 from her, and hers and my family’s situation is always bad… she just got into a car accident a month and a half ago, shattered her ankle… and if that wasn’t bad enough, most my family is in poverty and most of them live with her or depend on her for something. And so last Christmas, kids were taken from my parents and that was gonna be their first real Christmas with my grandma and that didn’t get to happen, my husband and I actually ended up being in a very good spot where we ended up getting everyone something. They all live in California, My husband and I, live clear across the United States, so we can’t even visit. I told my grandma what to do and honestly, no one else tried helping her. Her own brother said, “Oh well, let her learn her lesson.” And he’s actually very good with technology and has his own business. It’s sad the way everyone there treats her. I did tell her to come live with me but she won’t leave because apparently they all “need” her. (On another note tho, I love how you stood up for this elderly man and told them scammers off. This is great. Shows us what we can and should do. Thank you.) 💜💜💜
Because they themselves let crime happened. Look at the position the world is in now lol how do you explain that one with all this mass surveillance? Smh
While working at Best Buy, had an elderly fellow who was cleaned out of his whole checking and savings account because he owed Microsoft years of OS payments. Crazy
@Fast Cara how are they age shaming? no one called them dumb.. older people arent always as good with computers because they never grew up with them and they are always the ones that are targeted and fall for it.
@Fast Cara Yup because they aren't versed in modern technology. Just like most kids don't know what a casette tape is, a walkman, what gear is recommended when pushing a manual vehicle. etc. This is to protect them, and if someone gets offended by it (or for them) then either we're correct or you need to get a new hobby rather than being offended for someone else.
I’m assuming these jerk offs never refunded Jack his $1100?! ☹️☹️ I despise scammers such as these and adore elderly hard working people such as Jack. God bless him ❤️
Jim claiming to be the Grandson of Jake allowed him to show real emotion and I loved every moment of that. Thankyou Jim your videos have helped educate my parents and grandparents.
Jim's usually more calm than this. I think speaking with the older gentleman really got to him. It's awesome to see him go after them this hard. Out of all the great people doing this, Jim's the best. His skill and intelligence is unparalleled. Keep fighting the good fight.
You got to love when Jim get annoyed with the scammers, talks harshly and later "drives his it-tank" directly through their scam center demolishing every scammer on its way.

Hey Jim, I just wanted to thank you. Hearing that a 96 year old man was getting scammed for years hurt me, but you, you came in and you helped him. You're doing amazing work every single day and you going out of your way to make help out strangers is just the best. Makes me happy to see genuine heroes like you and Mr.Beast.
Please keep doing this Jim. This makes a huge difference, and brings education to people who can spread the word so that less people can get scammed in the future! Way to go being super stern with these obvious scammers.
As someone who works in an actual call center (I do tech support for Nintendo), these guys seriously piss me off. I have a pretty heavy accent (I'm a Venezuelan exile), and because of assholes like these, there's a significant amount of customers who call, hear my foreign accent, and are distrustful and/or demanding to speak with an american. Not only are they stealing from tons of people and ruining their lives, but they are making the jobs of honest workers like us needlessly harder in the process.
I love the profile picture. Also, I'm sorry you have to go through that. I'm a call center rep as well, but I'm aspiring to be an ethical hacker when I get stronger.
You are right. I had to call DWP the other day after receiving a letter that I had been overpaid ( which the amount matched and my details too and I knew about it). The operator had a slight Indian accent and involuntary, I went all cautious. The poor guy was very embarrassed but as I was sure it was a legit call, I relaxed a bit. I felt very sorry for him because ohe has to endure people like me who grill him for doing his job, just because scammers. . And I am angry at the scammers because I had to make sure the number on the letter did indeed belong to DWP, so I wasted time on gov. Uk . I am so cautious nowadays that I don’t even trust the official sites have not been spoofed. Total Paranoia 🤣
Way to go Jim! Take them out behind the woodshed. These kind of scammers go after the elderly ALL THE TIME and it’s sickening. Everyone make sure to tell your grandparents to call you first if they are at all curious that they might be being scammed. For some reason, a lot of them are willing to pay several hundred to thousands of dollars for “tech support” instead of asking a trusted relative or friend first.
I love how at 0:48 he blurs out their faces just enough to be considered not revealing their actual faces but we can all tell what they look like, Jim you sneaky bastard
I love the awareness these videos create about potential scams and risks like this. I've gotten these scam phone calls plenty of times in the past. It makes me so sad that so many people are unaware of how these things work and are susceptible and to trusting. Keep up the great work. Subscribing now. Mark brought me here and his glitterbombs lol!
@@medix1203 Problem is that youtube won't like it, for it is considered a violation of TOS. I still think its bs for cases like these.

I am an Indian and hats off to Jim Browning for what he is doing.. These fake call centers are being busted here in India and the agents are being sent to jail.. But the problem is that the owners still escape.. So continue this work Jim so that these Fake Call centres are completely demolished..
Genuine question I feel like if the local police departments were given more direction it wiukd be fairly simple to track down these call centers. What are they doing or have they started doing to try and shut these down.
@@VishtheFish101 local PD is probably in on it. You can't run organized crime there without giving police a cut. This is why you should doubt the arrest reports too. Too easy to let the bosses go and present innocent people or low level scammer as a big arrest
The bigger scam centers are better connected to the local government and police. They'll occasionally bust small call centers to pretend they are doing something about this, but it's all a show. Scamming is a huge part of their economy so there's no way it will be shut down.
Tbh I wish Jim could open a company where he trains and pays employees to basically do exactly what he does, live streaming it to continue to push channel revenue, just an underground network of folk intercepting scammers. Maybe even a whole department dedicated to wasting their time. Honestly I am tempted to get a burner pc or laptop and learn how to have a little fun myself, not even streaming it, just good fun
These are the people that unfortunately help me develop my racism towards. My family has gotten scoot over from these people, and overtime I grew to honestly have a disdain. Now that I am older, and I've grown out of that not knowing better, knew it was wrong, and focus most of my gripes with these scammers. Happy you're doing a service for people man, this needs to spread, and we need to do what we can to make it hell for them
I am a pensioner too and my son caught me talking to Indian scammers. I was getting several calls a day for months. I am so sorry for Jack I was lucky my son was there. He is now connected to my computer which gives me peace of mind. I have just found this channel 👍. Great video
My grandmother didn't have a computer, she spent an afternoon pretending she did but that she was confused by what the scammers were saying. Lady was a legend😂😁😂

I have zero respect for anyone that scams and takes advantage of the elderly.
My grandfather once received a call from a scammer, saying that his grandson just died in a car accident and they needed money for the funeral. This sounds ridiculous to many, as this is never how funerals and contacting family about passed loved ones, but for someone with dementia, it pulls on their emotions and literally messes them up. The scammers said my name to him, mentioned my parents, and my wife, and said just enough to make it sound real.
He thankfully didn't give any money, as he was no longer at the state of mind to handle his finances, and his daughter was the power of attorney taking care of it all, but it still messed up my grandfather for a good while. called my phone, thinking he was calling my brother, and when I said it was me, he kept saying that no, he's dead, I was told he's dead, and I had to do everything to try and calm him down and reassure him that I am myself, and I am not dead. Had to leave work early just to see him in person.
I’m so sorry you went through this, God will punish these people!!!
I'm sorry that happened to him....
Holyshiet
Wow… that’s _awful_ ! That’s the most despicable scam I’ve heard of to date
Sorry your family had to endure that. As a caregiver, I have no sympathy for people who do such things.

Wouldn’t they want to hang up the call when they realise they can’t scam
@@v3-schneider560 not if they think they can bring the scam back
I often wonder how much the actual workers know. Now obviously some of the more malicious scams where they’re actively editing html code and tricking people to get gift cards, those people are clearly aware and criminally inclined. But these tech support ones where they’re charging for fake software installation and fake software scanning it’s possible the day to day phone folks don’t realize it’s all smoke and mirrors because they are actually doing SOMETHING. I have no idea what any of this stuff Jim explains in this video means so if I started working there at that scam center and the boss told me to run x and install y when you see xyz and charge x amount of dollars I’d probably just shrug and go “if you say so” thinking I’m just doing a tech job.

My 64 year old mom got scammed the other day trying to pay her AT&T bill and she accidentally went to a site that just claimed to connect to her account, but actually just stole $250 from her and tried to get more, but the bank blocked it. I sent her some of your basic videos on avoiding scams and she said you make it so easy for her to understand what to look out for despite her not being very computer literate. So thank you, Jim. Because of you my mom now knows what to look out for and she's much more cautious.
And this is why I insist on paper bills and use the information on that to pay. That way I cannot get scammed unless they are stupid enough to send paper bills :)

A member of my extended family used to work at Staples, and he said they had elderly people coming in all the time to buy gift cards to pay these clowns. Fortunately, the company (at least where he worked) was well aware of the scam, and he and other store employees were able to dissuade many from purchasing the gift cards. THANK YOU JIM for all you do!
Retail and bank employees are increasingly aware of these scams, I work at a Target and we try, with varying degrees of success, to stop a scam in progress at least once a week.
You got me thinking... if I ever need a different job or to supplement one of the stores they want gift cards from would be a good place to start if only to be able to attempt to discourage the card buying when it seems suspicious. How satisfying that would be!
I feel like I've seen more and more of these lately at the store I work at. Sometimes a retail worker warning them is enough to save them, but sometimes the victims get mad at US for dating to imply they're being scammed.
@@DraykonVokelda Where I work we regularly get the scam victims we failed to convince come back in to complain to US that they lost their money, they actually think we're somehow in on the scam that we specifically warned them was a scam and told them not to participate in.

When a family member got ahold of the bank the first time to see where all the money was going they found that this had been going on for several months sometimes a few times a day and there were no red flags issued with the bank.
Preying on the elderly, disgusting.
You are just awesome, man. The way you handle things, and help people, and talk them through things, is so kind and caring. Keep it up, man.
Literal vultures >:(
On the bright side they won't be able to do it much longer. In 10-20 years the very large majority of people alive will be tech savvy enough to avoid these and the scammers will die out. It's only a matter of time, at this point their whole market is people like 65+. When people in their 30 right now reach that age this stuff won't work on them and so on.
one of the most cowardly acts.
@@abigbutterstick1780 there will be new more complicated tech. Tech is seriously going to advance so much going forward with new algorithms and all types of things like crypto, NFTs, metaverses, that people who think they know tech today will not understand
@@SharkAcademy It's not the tech that's the problem. A lot of people don't understand coding, firewalls, and computer maintenance/repair. But they still have the ability to recognize the scam. That's what's going to kill that industry because at the moment their victims are almost always people who grew up with little to no technology and the technology they did have was fixed in person by someone. Tomorrow I could get a call about something that I know virtually nothing about being wrong with my laptop and I'd still be able to recognize the scam and most people are the same. I don't think it will die out completely but I think being scammed will be very rare in the next couple decades.
Jim you have my utmost respect for what you do.
It is really disgusting how these heartless crooks look so bloody smug. Their impotent Government's flagrant complacency needs addressing before more unsuspecting vulnerable persons are made to suffer.
They're heartless.
Yea no, it's not complacency, people in their government are the ones running the vast scam networks. The only way to fight them would be for countries to run communications sanctions against them, but that would never happen becasue we have vested interests are just about as corrupt.
@@sqlevolicious Yes fair point. Since one trip to India, having only connected an Airport WiFi once with email, I'm bombarded with notices of non-payment, summons and urgent requests for my credit card details from even government domains!
@@Revived786 never use your real email for stuff like that, make a spam one and use guerillamail if you have a connection beforehand
@@CaptainApathetic Thanks. Definitely will do!
Scamming is their national industry.
Being a senior citizen, I find myself a target of a great many scammers, more domestic than foreign. They call me (I no longer answer the phone), they come to my house and give me inflated estimates for home repair jobs, they tell me they are fixing some terribly broken parts on my car. Of course, I walk away, but in wasting my time with these dishonest guys, I end up not getting something fixed that needs fixing. How I wish I could order one Jim Browning to call these fellas out for their thievery. They think because I'm older that I'm addle-brained. Not yet, buddy. I was working on computers when the disks were actually floppy and you had to know commands and how to manage a & b drives. Still, I have to put up with their assumptions. I'm so tired of people trying to rip me off.
I’m very sorry to hear that. Glad you know not to fall for these scams. Take care
same for younger people. we get all the same calls and we also get targeted with crypto scams and with international money exchange investment scams AND catfishing scams
I'm glad to know you're at least aware of their scams. Please let your older friends know about this too!
@@agnidas5816 You got to be dumb to get catfish scam
@Lux Aeterna Believe me, hon. I do spread the word as do others in my circle. We have an online community forum on which we post incidents of scamming & plain old dishonest business practices. Sad that we have only ourselves to rely on with most of these situations--meaning, we can't go to the police or even elected representatives and expect any protection from them. Although, if I think a business has ripped me off, I will write a complaint to FTC or local consumer protection agency--all I've done is make a record, no one is going to jump up and interrogate the bad guy. This is not what I envisioned doing in my retired life.
Hello Jim just wanted to share that I work for a cable company in the states installing internet and since I started watching your videos every time I come across elderly customers I make sure to inform them of scams and educate them. Do to your content you have opened many eyes to the issues of scams keep up the great work!
That's brilliant of you. Great work mate.
thats awesome! spread the good word and we can hope to prevent rather than scramble to stop the elderly being scammed. good on you!
Please also tell people who don't seem too tech-savvy (not just seniors)!
I worked for a bank for a time and we had a few ways to try to keep customers uptodate with some of the current scams. What could be great is if cable/internet providers did this themselves.
Do you think their is a chance to for you to help push your company to give move information to customers about current frauds?
I love that Jim and Jack even have similar accents, it’s so cute 🥺 I would totally believe they were grandfather and grandson! Sending love from Arkansas, keep up the amazing work!
I love that there are people out there like Jim to act as a digital vigilante against the baddies who target our elderly and tech-illiterate and rob them blind. It’s often the case that the best types folks get victimized in these. You rock!
Just like the moral from Batman, a vigilante does well to bring attention to something, but a vigilante alone can't fix or even fight a problem that's as large as a city, let alone one spanning the globe.
Jim grilling the scammer on Firewall being at 2% was the highlight.... every elderly person should watch one of more of these videos to understand how scammers operate
He reminded me of a wolf showing dominance. Loud and intimidating and gives his target no opportunity to regain footing at all.
They work on the simple princple that older people dont wont to appear stupid and are therefore easy prey to con artists.
I already showed his videos to my parents a while back. It's way easier to understand by watching the video than verbal explanation so it's pretty cool that these videos are available.
Love how argumentative Jim is now with these low life scammers. No more beating around the bush.
He drives directly through their lies, and roots them out. Very satisfying seeing scammers stopped.
The tech equivalent to owning the libs : played out and completely inconclusive
@@dustscythe7702 Not sure they were stopped. Jim can call them out but it's the local police that needs to act to actually stop them. And I remember reading that the branch of Indian police that deals with cybercrime is understaffed and underfunded and often doesn't have the resources to go after most of these people. And even when they get them, the battle just begins and the lawyers get into action (and I'm sure these scammers have lawyers as well). And since these scams often happen over borders, I can imagine the cases being quite complicated.
I work in Fraud for a very large company. Scammers call our subscribers and promise discounts for a one time payment. I always gather as much info as possible for our back office folks. I did decide to call one of the scammers one time, and I told him 'I know what you are doing. I have told (customer) not to pay you.' It didn't faze the Indian scammer at all, he proceeded to start a string of cursing at me. They know I stopped one scam, but they just move on to the next one. It's whack-a-mole.
I’m sure if Disney found out, they’d destroy the scammers in a heart beat.
Unfortunately, the sad reality of the world is that the reason scam centers exist in India is that the government refuses to take meaningful action against them. They'll make show arrests but the bosses pay their incredibly cheap bail and are back opening new companies a month later.
Disney is too woke to go after these scumbags all in the name of racism and diversity, the only victims are the poor people who fall for these scams.
Disney are Scammers themselves
There's something magical about the ever-calm Jim Browning letting loose for once and giving the scammers a proper bollocking
Agreed.
It's like when your dad is angry at you. He's not mad, he's just telling you why he's disappointed
@@RyantheCanuckpirate *very disappointed 😞

@@quadrillipede by whispering
Total control
As someone who dabbles in networking-related software, I'm dying at the "2% of firewall remaining" concept, like some kind of defence mechanisms in a video game.
same here lol i died
“Captain Kirk, sir! We have a problem, sir!” Yells random redshirt number 22 from his station at the {defensive system control station}. “What is it that it’s so important right now, trooper. Can’t you see that we’re under attack?” “It’s the firewall, sir! It’s at 2%!” *A giant, holographic forcefield-esque shield surrounding the ship glows concerningly dimly and flickers*
If a firewall actually had a percentage counter, why not just programme it to stay at 100%? Lol
Gives the same vibes as a movie protagonist saying they're a hacker but just geuss random passwords
"Sire! Our firewall is at low integrity! The inforks are about to breach in thy castle!"
Dude… this just happened to my 74 year old grandma last Christmas… they took $4,000 from her, and hers and my family’s situation is always bad… she just got into a car accident a month and a half ago, shattered her ankle… and if that wasn’t bad enough, most my family is in poverty and most of them live with her or depend on her for something. And so last Christmas, kids were taken from my parents and that was gonna be their first real Christmas with my grandma and that didn’t get to happen, my husband and I actually ended up being in a very good spot where we ended up getting everyone something. They all live in California, My husband and I, live clear across the United States, so we can’t even visit. I told my grandma what to do and honestly, no one else tried helping her. Her own brother said, “Oh well, let her learn her lesson.” And he’s actually very good with technology and has his own business. It’s sad the way everyone there treats her. I did tell her to come live with me but she won’t leave because apparently they all “need” her. (On another note tho, I love how you stood up for this elderly man and told them scammers off. This is great. Shows us what we can and should do. Thank you.) 💜💜💜
These scammers........ They deserve hello
Obviously the o in the last is there so yt doesn't delete my comment
How can a single man do a better job than the entire police department dedicated to this. You are awesome Jim

Elderly people specifically getting scammed like this makes my blood boil. You're doing a huge service Jim!
While working at Best Buy, had an elderly fellow who was cleaned out of his whole checking and savings account because he owed Microsoft years of OS payments. Crazy
@Fast Cara how are they age shaming? no one called them dumb.. older people arent always as good with computers because they never grew up with them and they are always the ones that are targeted and fall for it.
@Fast Cara uhm how? it is true that most victims are older..
@Fast Cara Yup because they aren't versed in modern technology. Just like most kids don't know what a casette tape is, a walkman, what gear is recommended when pushing a manual vehicle. etc. This is to protect them, and if someone gets offended by it (or for them) then either we're correct or you need to get a new hobby rather than being offended for someone else.
@Fast Cara reporting u for spam mate, same comment. 🤣
I’m assuming these jerk offs never refunded Jack his $1100?! ☹️☹️ I despise scammers such as these and adore elderly hard working people such as Jack. God bless him ❤️
Most scammers wont return the money at all
Jim claiming to be the Grandson of Jake allowed him to show real emotion and I loved every moment of that. Thankyou Jim your videos have helped educate my parents and grandparents.
Think its the first time i heard emotion on his voice.
Jim's usually more calm than this. I think speaking with the older gentleman really got to him. It's awesome to see him go after them this hard. Out of all the great people doing this, Jim's the best. His skill and intelligence is unparalleled. Keep fighting the good fight.

When it starts with CCTV footage, you just know it's going to be a wild ride.
I’ve never heard Jim get angry, but it makes sense very enjoyable how he just rips into the scammer.
You got to love when Jim get annoyed with the scammers, talks harshly and later "drives his it-tank" directly through their scam center demolishing every scammer on its way.
These scammers are so dense and frustrating to listen to.
it is comforting to know that someone with your skills has chosen to make life miserable for a bunch of thieves.

As someone who works in an actual call center (I do tech support for Nintendo), these guys seriously piss me off.
I have a pretty heavy accent (I'm a Venezuelan exile), and because of assholes like these, there's a significant amount of customers who call, hear my foreign accent, and are distrustful and/or demanding to speak with an american.
Not only are they stealing from tons of people and ruining their lives, but they are making the jobs of honest workers like us needlessly harder in the process.
I love the profile picture.
Also, I'm sorry you have to go through that. I'm a call center rep as well, but I'm aspiring to be an ethical hacker when I get stronger.
You are right. I had to call DWP the other day after receiving a letter that I had been overpaid ( which the amount matched and my details too and I knew about it). The operator had a slight Indian accent and involuntary, I went all cautious. The poor guy was very embarrassed but as I was sure it was a legit call, I relaxed a bit. I felt very sorry for him because ohe has to endure people like me who grill him for doing his job, just because scammers. . And I am angry at the scammers because I had to make sure the number on the letter did indeed belong to DWP, so I wasted time on gov. Uk .
I am so cautious nowadays that I don’t even trust the official sites have not been spoofed. Total Paranoia 🤣
Did you just casually mention you work for Nintendo?
@@Laiser Uhh yes? Well, Nintendo of America, not the European or Asian branches
So, if I called up the Nintendo line would they assist troubleshooting with any one of their home consoles? For example, N64?
Way to go Jim! Take them out behind the woodshed. These kind of scammers go after the elderly ALL THE TIME and it’s sickening. Everyone make sure to tell your grandparents to call you first if they are at all curious that they might be being scammed. For some reason, a lot of them are willing to pay several hundred to thousands of dollars for “tech support” instead of asking a trusted relative or friend first.

Genuine question I feel like if the local police departments were given more direction it wiukd be fairly simple to track down these call centers. What are they doing or have they started doing to try and shut these down.
@@VishtheFish101 poverty is real so people can easily be corrupted.
@@VishtheFish101 local PD is probably in on it. You can't run organized crime there without giving police a cut.
This is why you should doubt the arrest reports too. Too easy to let the bosses go and present innocent people or low level scammer as a big arrest
The bigger scam centers are better connected to the local government and police. They'll occasionally bust small call centers to pretend they are doing something about this, but it's all a show. Scamming is a huge part of their economy so there's no way it will be shut down.
Thanks guys!
I hate these scammers with a passion! I’m glad to see them getting called out for more awareness
Tbh I wish Jim could open a company where he trains and pays employees to basically do exactly what he does, live streaming it to continue to push channel revenue, just an underground network of folk intercepting scammers. Maybe even a whole department dedicated to wasting their time. Honestly I am tempted to get a burner pc or laptop and learn how to have a little fun myself, not even streaming it, just good fun
