Out of all the scam baiting videos, this one is the best. This scammer’s writing style is quite different from most and somehow his dishonest personality more entertaining. Sentences like “I am a trustworthy worthy person”, “I am a mature man who knows his left and right” are pure gold!
He writes the way I did when I was 14 (I started to learn english around that age) and I'm still struggling with it at 23, these videos make me feel way better about my english
I love how whenever they refer to Warosa, they always, ALWAYS, say "the soul called Mr Barrister John Warosa." It's like when your parents are mad at you and they call you by your full name. "The soul called Mr Barrister John Warosa, get your butt in this house RIGHT NOW!"
It probably helps them sometimes in exploiting people who have a close relationship with God, but are too trusting/naive to know they're lying sometimes. It's definitely not believable if you're smart and you know of scammers and their tricks, but an unassuming person who thinks they're acting in a biblical way will probably be less fortunate and fall for their evil tricks. Sucks that people resort to that to make a living instead of doing honest work and not exploiting the poor people who do fall for that.
@@Anon-21j actually no, its common for a specific kind of human to define themselfs. its a narcissistic trait. when you think your age makes you worth more. cuz you "lived longer" yada yada yada. just ego of stupidity. the illusion of knowing everything or being the best in something because you are older. have more experience. cuz you're the best. Yikes i already have to puke just talking about it.
Since I am elderly man and not a child and a person of my age who is not a kid would not lie because I am an elderly man not a kid. And a person of my age and maturity and elderlyness wouldn’t lie to you.

Epic theory: One or other of the scammers here was actually the original John Barosa, and that is why they freaked out so much at the reappearance of the name, and refused correspondence with him beyond the "who are you".
@@scaridaghostlyUnlikely. Based on these videos, Nigerian scammers seem to end a lot of their sentences with "OK", and there's almost always religious boilerplate of some kind. Plus, Nigerian scammers tend to use Western names as their fake names.
Its so funny how kids think that they're convincing when they say that and then get really defensive when someone starts guessing their age. This isn't every kid but some of the more annoying ones are susceptible to this.
OMG... Ok, I fell asleep listening to this last night and had a dream that a family member and I had been being contacted by "the soul called Barrister John Warosa". There was a woman who was advising us to stop contacting him, and every single time he was mentioned in my dream he was referred to as "the soul called Barrister John Warosa." It was so over the top, and the timbre of the woman's voice in my dream was so similar to yours, the name was totally overdone and unnecessarily long. Too funny!!! 🤣
@@alexperez7012 They should make it a thing, or a saying... or a play!! 🤣 Reminds me of 'The Demon Barber of Fleet Street' Has a good ring to it too! "The Soul called Mr. Barrister John Warosa"
But doesn't being trustworthy already imply that you are worthy of being trustworthy, therefore making the sentence worthy of conveying trustworthiness without the second worthy?
It's actually a very smart part from the scammers, by making those grammar/vocabulary mistakes they make sure only the most gullible will be baited and filter out those who are too critical about the details of the "transaction"
This video (and channel, honestly) was one of the few places that I could keep counting on to de-stress when things got really tough during the Covid years. Atomic Shrimp's brilliant commentary, plus a criminally good song, all in one video?! If I couldn't physically sit down and watch, I could lift my spirits thinking of that 5-star, S-tier melody. Thanks for the hard work you put into these videos, they spark so much joy and laughter. I'm thankful that I can rewatch this and be here to witness more of your scam-baiting adventures, and whatever other cool topic you decide to post about, too. You're the best, Atomic Shrimp!
... NO this isn't a waste of time,, your keeping the scammers from spending time on someone that may fall for it and give them money, since you are stringing them along they are wasting their time and resources thus you have scammed the scammer. Your doing a public service....
I cannot explain why but the way this guy reads the emails, it is like I am being read a nice story. He must be a proffessional Audio book reader. priceless. I believe in John Warosa/Barosa
@@lodyb Sounds like a recommendation to me :) Never actually read the book, I might just do that later. I may laugh in inappropriate places because I imagine Alex talking to a scammer or vice versa ^^
Dunno why I'm seeing this suggestion in 2020, but I have to say, this scammer is obviously a Nigerian youth, I can tell because I am also a Nigerian and I recognize common phrases we use in convos
I think the scammer meant, "the so-called." Oftentimes non-native English speaking individuals will substitute words phonically. I once worked for a Swiss gentleman who pronounced "does" (as in, "he does it") like "doughs" (as in, "does, some deer, some female deer"), but always spelled it as "dose" when he wrote it down, adding to the confusion (and a substantial amount of work editing the indecipherable nonsense on his website).
@@juliennepujol5586 That... makes a shocking amount of sense. I thought it was some affectation from whatever the scammer's first language was that they just brought directly over into English.
I love your videos so much sir. I know this is a couple years old at this point, but every so often I have to rewatch it lol. Thank you so much for all the laughs, and for the awareness you bring to this topic. I’ve had family members fall for something similar, and it means a lot what you do here. Thanks again, keep up the good work!
aniolkowski Oh boy, that went completely over my head. To be fair to myself though, I have been watching videos of airplane disasters and accidents. Someone on the ground always asks for the number of souls onboard the plane. Now it is just a substitute for person to me.

Where did he learn English? The 12th century? "The soul called John Barosa." Who calls people souls? I pray that yonder harlot doth maketh haste onto my dingus.
He the is using the google translate from a the of a l different language the obvious the yes of using the translate so do no transfer your money to wrong the account do not transfer the payment on his instruction this evening Sorry, was listening to the video...
I think he doesn't even know English, most mistakes are the likes of Google translate, for example the words self and soul are the same in Arabic, so he meant no one/self like j. Warosa, and because of some uniquenesses of Arabic grammar the noun and adjective forms of a word can be written the same, and google translate does not really understand context in lesser used languages
I love how all scammers need to say “this is not a scam at all, we are legit” which just raises red flags about them Edit: You actually got someone to sing a song based on a lengthy email! You really are a legend!
Specifying that they are not in fact a small boy is just as incredible. I think companies like amazon and apple should also start clarifying in their emails that they are in fact multibillion-dollar conglomerate firms and not singular young males of below average height.
Next time you send a fake passport picture, ask for their I.D first then when you get a fake id, use the photo from what they sent you as the picture in the passport you send them and see if they notice.
Jesus, even the scam's setup sounds illegal. Who will they fool by saying "join me and give me some money and I will help you _steal a dead man's money"_ Like, that's just a bad scam. A terrible con. Mediocre. Poor script.
Scamming technique that makes it being really shady and under the table seem legit. If I tell you it’s a lottery or a prize or some shit, it doesn’t make sense that it’s just one random dude emailing me. If I tell you it’s an opportunity for a secret illegal deal, the shadiness makes sense
The sheer number of times he strongly insists he is not a small boy makes me strongly suspect that you are in fact dealing with a small boy, perhaps several, standing on eachother's shoulders under a comically large trench coat with floppy sleeves.
There has to be some kind of psychological effect where (after a certain threshold) the more you insist that something is/is not the case, the less likely people are to actually believe you
Also them constantly insisting that they are elderly, because they know that the only people who fall for these obvious scams nowadays are vulnerable elderly people who don't know much about computers, and they're trying really hard to be a hello fellow -young- old person.
I like how you even get the scammer to alternate between John Barosa and John Warosa. Also i can't read the "My friend listen to me I don't know what you are doing..." email wihtout hearing the song by the soul called Mr. Songwriter Eric Castiglia in my head now.

Roscoe Dash Do you think they use auto translation services? Or do they speak English, just not well?
so true 😂😂
It's actually a very smart part from the scammers, by making those grammar/vocabulary mistakes they make sure only the most gullible will be baited and filter out those who are too critical about the details of the "transaction"
Ozz Lee you could be right but also remember most of these scammers are not from well-educated/English speaking countries.
This video (and channel, honestly) was one of the few places that I could keep counting on to de-stress when things got really tough during the Covid years. Atomic Shrimp's brilliant commentary, plus a criminally good song, all in one video?! If I couldn't physically sit down and watch, I could lift my spirits thinking of that 5-star, S-tier melody. Thanks for the hard work you put into these videos, they spark so much joy and laughter. I'm thankful that I can rewatch this and be here to witness more of your scam-baiting adventures, and whatever other cool topic you decide to post about, too. You're the best, Atomic Shrimp!
... NO this isn't a waste of time,, your keeping the scammers from spending time on someone that may fall for it and give them money, since you are stringing them along they are wasting their time and resources thus you have scammed the scammer. Your doing a public service....

Dunno why I'm seeing this suggestion in 2020, but I have to say, this scammer is obviously a Nigerian youth, I can tell because I am also a Nigerian and I recognize common phrases we use in convos
But he is not Nigerian youth. He is very trustworthy elder man from UAE, my brother. I don't have time for this nonsense.
Can you give me an example from the video?
My brother he is no small boy
immanuel aluyi he is not youth, he is a grown man/elder, and not a small boy. Do you not listen?
😂😂😂😅
"The soul called Mr. Barrister John Barosa" doesn't even sound like real words anymore
I know, after hearing it 100 times.....................
I think the scammer meant, "the so-called." Oftentimes non-native English speaking individuals will substitute words phonically.
I once worked for a Swiss gentleman who pronounced "does" (as in, "he does it") like "doughs" (as in, "does, some deer, some female deer"), but always spelled it as "dose" when he wrote it down, adding to the confusion (and a substantial amount of work editing the indecipherable nonsense on his website).
Sounds like someone who's about to scam Jack Sparrow...
No matter how many times I watch this, "The disease that deposited the money" still makes me laugh uncontrollably.

He the is using the google translate from a the of a l different language the obvious the yes of using the translate so do no transfer your money to wrong the account do not transfer the payment on his instruction this evening
Sorry, was listening to the video...
I think he doesn't even know English, most mistakes are the likes of Google translate, for example the words self and soul are the same in Arabic, so he meant no one/self like j. Warosa, and because of some uniquenesses of Arabic grammar the noun and adjective forms of a word can be written the same, and google translate does not really understand context in lesser used languages
3 years later and I still giggle at this fabulous song!
I love how all scammers need to say “this is not a scam at all, we are legit” which just raises red flags about them
Edit: You actually got someone to sing a song based on a lengthy email! You really are a legend!
Never you contact me again
they just want you to be rest assured.
Fiverr is a magical place to spend money on all sorts of stuff/earn some money (I did that and it's fun)
Specifying that they are not in fact a small boy is just as incredible.
I think companies like amazon and apple should also start clarifying in their emails that they are in fact multibillion-dollar conglomerate firms and not singular young males of below average height.
this is no scam safe and good transaction ok
“I am not a kid I’m an elderly man” idk sounds like something a small boy would say

Scamming technique that makes it being really shady and under the table seem legit. If I tell you it’s a lottery or a prize or some shit, it doesn’t make sense that it’s just one random dude emailing me. If I tell you it’s an opportunity for a secret illegal deal, the shadiness makes sense

The sheer number of times he strongly insists he is not a small boy makes me strongly suspect that you are in fact dealing with a small boy, perhaps several, standing on eachother's shoulders under a comically large trench coat with floppy sleeves.
