So a scammer targeted a guy who's notorious for taking down scammers... Sounds like a challenge to me I hope we get more updates on this saga as it goes on
John wick is scary to friends and foes because he is a psychopath gun for hire, and he is not perfect because he is criminal scum attacking other criminal scum. So actually your comparison is spot on.
Fun fact if you haven't watched Jim's video yet: Jim managed to counter trick the scammer into clicking a link (twice) that gave Jim access to his ip address, and it was the same location in Turkey both times so he most likely wasn't using a VPN.
@@poudink5791 you realize you can find their wifi with ip, meaning their exact location IN Turkey? And if you hack that wifi you have access to all devices connected to it at that moment. That can do plenty of damage to anyone and this scammer is gonna get it. There's a difference between scamming and hacking, scammers are like little kids trying to convince you to give them info based on how naive you are, compared to hacking where you find holes in the code and exploit them to gain access before anyone even imagines what you are trying to do.
It’s funny how the immediate way to catch this scam is by the fact it looks like TH-cam or Google actually being a helpful company that even remotely cares about its users. So yeah rarely should anyone ever trust an email from TH-cam that says they want to help.
That's what surprises me about this. Why believe that Google would ask for your assistance for doing *anything* that involves changes to their own system? They'd just fucking change it and not tell you about it.
So he used to scam the scammers And then the scammers scammed him Im betting 10 dollars that jim is going to find who scammed him and do some big brain moves

@Dokki Exploits the goal of the scam was for the scammer to steal his channel what benefits would having a random popular youtubers channel get deleted for no reason get you
This was the most epic TH-cam showdown ever. The smartest creators Vs The Smartest Scam. But in the end… Not even Spiffing Brit or Jim Browning could survive, the lone survivor was OrdinaryGamers.
@@Fillthrill the way people incessantly talk about Charlie like he’s a god because ‘that’s the joke’ is pushing me away from this channel fast, not to mention Charlie not moderating the comments at all leading to the jacksepticeye shit and constant links
It's like pummeling Wolverine in this case cuz that dude is gonna have his ass handed back to him by Jim himself I can already hear "hello my name is Jim Browning, it seems like you tricked me weeks ago"
I feel like the scammers targeted Jim Browning specifically so that he couldn't tell people about the scam and call the scammers out. It didn't work because Jim Browning has intelligence that elevates him as someone who is beyond a human being.
That makes no sense considering he of course would tell people and DID tell people about this particular phishing scam. It’s because he had a large amount of subscribers. It was a wide net on this one.
One of my accounts was actually hacked and then TH-cam “terminated” it “for suspicious activity”. I have reached out to them 4 times in the past month (once a week), and I have still received no email. They 100% do not communicate.
They actually do communicate. cause I got many emails from TH-cam about my recent videos and how many view they got in a month. Just analytics stuff. its real youtube does communicate with there users but nothing like the video

I love how in Jim's video, he tries to turn the scammer's life around by telling him to make his own YT channel and make "good content". That's a sign of mercy from Jim and that's rare.
The irony about saving yourself from this scam is knowing that if there is an issue YOU have to contact youtube, and youtube will never contact you cuz of their shit communications.

I’m just happy Jim is receiving this amount of acknowledgment. Been following his videos for a good while and the growth he’s had in subscribers reflects directly to his motivation. Don’t get me wrong he’s got some gems from the past but his newer videos are anything but lacking. Only patron I have, I just hope he has a long happy career on the internet. Or happy retirement after the scam callers are all gone 😎
Have you watched Kitboga? He doesn't take them down, he just wastes their time using fake bank accounts, websites, google card #s, voice changers, etc. Very entertaining.
NotSoSlenderMan oh yeah they should just have a task force. Each of these guys would be the head of a division. Jim cyber security, Mark engineering, kitboga on disruption of communications.idk I tried
I feel like that it is partially Google's fault for allowing emails to even be sent from an @google domain. Also, they could add a verification badge in Gmail (That is only visible in the client and is a unique image outside of the message box (So it can't be perfectly replicated as it is part of the Gmail client itself) that says something like "Verified Google Sender" or "Verified TH-cam Support".
Google phones do this actually. When you get an SMS message for verification on Google, the text will have the Google logo and there will be a banner that says "This is a verified Google number" or something along those lines.
There won't be any point in this, since (if I heard the correctly) the scammer used an actual google email, therefore it would still have the "Verified Google Sender". Best option would be to increase the protection of the email's passwords and such things, that's the easiest way.
I can imagine people falling for this, but it’s just so wild. TH-cam is almost nonexistent when it comes to helping and protecting their content creators, so just getting an email from them that isn’t about copyright is in the realm of fantasy.

That probably adds to the scam, if it's THAT serious that TH-cam is emailing you directly, it sorta magnifies that sense of urgency, especially if it affects your income.
To be fair, the fake problem was that the creators qere getting double the money they should and youtube would care if they are losing money in any way
These people got Jim Browning and almost got both Mark Rober and Mudahar. At this point, it feels like they were trying to go for larger tech TH-camrs to see how well the scam worked
I am super paranoid, never fell for any scams, I've had literal thousands of attempts on me on various accounts throughout the platforms. The trick is to pay attention to the details of the scam, like is the link wrong? why do they need a password if they can manage accounts on their own accord? why are they pulling you to discord or something to talk about the situation? and for an example purpose: why has the account supposedly been reported for say, and alternate account when you never made one? (some scams rely on timing for it to be convincing, because if the claim was just out of nowhere with nothing to go off of, it can be picked apart easily) That's what I normally use when I see scams or seemingly convincing ones like what happened to Jim Browning. I think the most important thing is to NEVER share your password, even if it's a convincing enough scam. Two-Factor Authentication is also a good step to a secure account.
Guarantee it wasn't just one of them that worked on going after him. Or it was some genius who wouldn't normally participate in this behavior but was in desperate need of some validation because without their cookies their just a monster!!!
I believe youtube or google need something that finds where the scammers are then tells all the fans where they live, that would stop this real quick when the obsessed fans find them. lol
“The best way to know if it’s a scam and not actually TH-cam is that if they’re trying to help you it’s not TH-cam.” *LMAO! I can’t! That’s so true!* 😂😂
Bells would've been ringing at "delete your channel" for me. Like Charlie said they won't normally contact you, which I would have fell for, let alone ask you to delete your channel. I would've made them delete it if they wanted it gone that bad.
Did not know The Spiffing Brit got affected by this too, the dude really targeted the two people who are known for exposing scams/exploiting - like it's a vendetta or something.
I love how youtube support is so useless that you really can't expect them to message anything to you unless it's about someone filing a DMCA notice to your video.

I can't believe The Spiffing Brit really got tricked. I remember watching his videos and thinking he was a really smart guy. Scammers are so goddamn annoying honestly.
@@Andre83572 The Spiffing Brit actually did have two AdSense accounts because he has another channel for testing TH-cam exploits so he was already expecting to get this exact email eventually. It also came when he was on vacation so he was a bit distracted.
At least it was somebody extremely familiar with scams and with a decent chance of actually getting Google to help him who was one of the first prominent channels targeted. If it was anybody else, it's likely this would run much more rampant.
@@lucasharvey8990 Nah, just preventing these scams from happening as a whole, idk how they are able to make it seem so official without TH-cam getting involved.
@@shinkuhs What exactly do you want TH-cam to do besides restore the channels. They can't exactly stop the guy from sending emails. I suppose they could try to press charges but I doubt that would go anywhere.
If you watched Jim’s video, you’d see it was pretty clear that the scammer had no idea who he was targeting. I think they were just sending out emails to every big youtuber’s email they could get their hands on.
When charlie started talking about one of the smartest anti-scammer people on youtube got scammed, i thought he was being ironic and the actual vid was to fish for his subs believing it, but then i got surprosed that it actually happened, goes to show that no one can be TOO safe on the internet

@Dokki Exploits Jim Browning's video, not cr1t1kal's, he says the ploy was to have the creators transfer their accounts to the scammer, therefore making the scammer gain revenue. Please watch it.
@Dokki Exploits The goal was for him to give the scammer his account details so his revenue would be hijacked..

I feel like the scammers targeted Jim Browning specifically so that he couldn't tell people about the scam and call the scammers out. It didn't work because Jim Browning has intelligence that elevates him as someone who is beyond a human being.

That makes no sense considering he of course would tell people and DID tell people about this particular phishing scam. It’s because he had a large amount of subscribers. It was a wide net on this one.

I’m so sorry
They actually do communicate. cause I got many emails from TH-cam about my recent videos and how many view they got in a month. Just analytics stuff. its real youtube does communicate with there users but nothing like the video

I love how in Jim's video, he tries to turn the scammer's life around by telling him to make his own YT channel and make "good content". That's a sign of mercy from Jim and that's rare.
The irony about saving yourself from this scam is knowing that if there is an issue YOU have to contact youtube, and youtube will never contact you cuz of their shit communications.

I’m just happy Jim is receiving this amount of acknowledgment. Been following his videos for a good while and the growth he’s had in subscribers reflects directly to his motivation. Don’t get me wrong he’s got some gems from the past but his newer videos are anything but lacking. Only patron I have, I just hope he has a long happy career on the internet. Or happy retirement after the scam callers are all gone 😎
Same, it's cool to see 2 of your fav youtubers acknowledge each other like this

Jim and Charlie, this is the greatest crossover ever, just need to get atomic shrimp in now
What is an Atomic Shrimp? I only know a yellow octupus who plays prang.
I feel like that it is partially Google's fault for allowing emails to even be sent from an @google domain. Also, they could add a verification badge in Gmail (That is only visible in the client and is a unique image outside of the message box (So it can't be perfectly replicated as it is part of the Gmail client itself) that says something like "Verified Google Sender" or "Verified TH-cam Support".
Google phones do this actually. When you get an SMS message for verification on Google, the text will have the Google logo and there will be a banner that says "This is a verified Google number" or something along those lines.
That's a great idea with 1 major flaw. TH-cam/Google doesn't care enough to do that 😂
There won't be any point in this, since (if I heard the correctly) the scammer used an actual google email, therefore it would still have the "Verified Google Sender".
Best option would be to increase the protection of the email's passwords and such things, that's the easiest way.
It's typical spoofing.
Google can't do anything about it sadly. Some scammer send an email from seemingly my own email address.

Ironically, you are invulnerable to this scam if you ignore your E-mails.
I can imagine people falling for this, but it’s just so wild. TH-cam is almost nonexistent when it comes to helping and protecting their content creators, so just getting an email from them that isn’t about copyright is in the realm of fantasy.

That probably adds to the scam, if it's THAT serious that TH-cam is emailing you directly, it sorta magnifies that sense of urgency, especially if it affects your income.
To be fair, the fake problem was that the creators qere getting double the money they should and youtube would care if they are losing money in any way
These people got Jim Browning and almost got both Mark Rober and Mudahar. At this point, it feels like they were trying to go for larger tech TH-camrs to see how well the scam worked

@@dmpsix7417 i hope you’re joking
I am super paranoid, never fell for any scams, I've had literal thousands of attempts on me on various accounts throughout the platforms.
The trick is to pay attention to the details of the scam, like is the link wrong? why do they need a password if they can manage accounts on their own accord? why are they pulling you to discord or something to talk about the situation? and for an example purpose: why has the account supposedly been reported for say, and alternate account when you never made one? (some scams rely on timing for it to be convincing, because if the claim was just out of nowhere with nothing to go off of, it can be picked apart easily) That's what I normally use when I see scams or seemingly convincing ones like what happened to Jim Browning. I think the most important thing is to NEVER share your password, even if it's a convincing enough scam. Two-Factor Authentication is also a good step to a secure account.
THE FACT THAT JIM WAS LITERALLY ALMOST SCAMMED IS INSANE
The fact you could get scammed 100 times with the same method is insane 😂
@Flowy But he wasn't tho. He was tricked into deleting his own acc, but they never got anything off of him so he didn't really get scammed.
So this is the “all hope is lost”part of a hero’s journey right?

I believe youtube or google need something that finds where the scammers are then tells all the fans where they live, that would stop this real quick when the obsessed fans find them. lol
