Jim is a legend 😂
Jim is a gem 😁
Exactly what I came to say
Hes superman
He actually is! He's much respected like a godfather by the scam baiting community
Leave it to a ordinary civilian to do the work the FBI, CIA and Homeland Security should be doing. Thank you Jim for all you do to keep us safe!
Government agencies don't have jurisdiction in these countries, they can't do anything meaningful legally and they have bigger fish to fry than a scam ring ... like actual terrorism, human trafficking and homicides
CIA? LOL!
@@brokemono Wrong.
Internatyional borders are a huge factor here. It means governments hands are tied through international law.
Jims however, are not - because he is not in the government.
But please, keep pushing your narrative.
@lenblack1462 Doesn't the CIA always protect British citizens?
None of those agencies should be acting to protect UK citizens. US citizens sure but we have our own law enforcement this side of the pond.
So many nights I've lied in bed watching Jim's videos. 😅
Me too 😂😅
Same 👌🏻
Pretty much me every time a new one drops
That sounds really creepy!!! lol
@@msc_1974 🤣🤣
It never even occurred to me that Jim Browning wasn't his real name. 🤣
"Hats off" to Jim, Kit, Nano, Pierogi, Trilogy, Pleasant Green..
Found out about Rinoa Poison too
Rinoa poison
@@markdevries6858 I like Atomic Shrimp too.
But it should be "hats off". ;)
Scammer revolts as well
Rinoa is one of my faves , ive never met a woman who can annoy men so much , i love her laugh too shes so cute n funny
@@ARUCARDFTEPES yes Atomic shrimp is a great channel
IRL Rosie too shes cool
I absolutely love Jim Browning's voice 😊 and great job you do, Sir. Thanks. 😊
I was wondering about his accent
its a northern irish accent@@Bllairy
His voice is so comforting
Ain't it Liam Neeson in disguise? 😂👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
@@boycie-1690 😆The internet's Liam Neeson
Been watching Jim for years and it's so good to see he's finally made it on a British show that you might find a lot of older people watch, this is the best way to help vulnerable people be more aware. Now if he makes it one news channels, it's almost checkmate!
Jim is a modern day hero. Protecting the most vulnerable in our society. Absolute 100% Legend!
There are several people who do this and they deserve every bit of respect and support.
This man deserves a Nobel Prize by helping humanity avoid this pestilence !
Agreed
He’s a legend in his own right but there are so many who takes the fight to them
Trilogy Media, Scammer Payback, Karl Rock, IRLRosie, Pleasant Green, Jim Browning, Scambaiter, scammer Revolts, Kitboga, Atomic Shrimp are pretty much on top of my top 10. The Hoax Hotel is also hilarious at keeping scammer on the line, making them run in circles.
Big up Kitboga, the king 👑
Atomic Shrimp is the best for email scams. I love how good he is at stringing them along. ❤
😂🎉 Mister Barrister John Warosa! 🎉😂
@@erinhaury5773be rest assured, he is not a small boy
Jim is a legend. I don't know how he keeps so calm when confronting those scammers.
I’ve been watching Jim Browning and the Scammer payback channel for a few years. They do amazing work individually and when teamed up. True hero’s 🤩
Not just Jim Browning, but Trilogy Media, Pleasant Green, Karl Rock, IRLRosie, Scammer Payback and all the others. They're all funny and talented.
Jim is the og though
Kitboga too
@@krab1791 kitboga is a different breed 😂😂😂
Karl rock is a tourist influencer
Atomic Shrimp too
Jim Browning is a legend. 👍
Yeah, of course that's not even his real name, but I agree.
Been watching Jim for a while now, hes the absolute goat, hes unstopped and truly a hero for this service
I don't believe I wasn't aware of this interview.
True heart of gold and one of the best of us, who clearly doesn't wear a cape but instead Cark Kent glasses =P.
Jim is a real life hero for going above and beyond the moto of helping others. He's in the ranks of Military/Police/Fire/Medical personal who serve.
Thank you Jim for just being you!
Remember don't be a scammer, instead be like Jim no mater what job you do in this world and the world would be a better place.
Not all heroes wear capes
Kilts? X
Jim Browning is a legend, crazy that they got him on air. Probably dangerous for them to show even as little as they did of him.
Brilliant, can't believe I couldn't find this on your own channel. All the best Jim, what a humble man
I love his accent, and could listen to him talk all day..
Irish
Northern Irish to be more specific
Jim the GOAT
Ive been watching Jim for years, and other people like him who speak to scammers. whether it's just wasting their time or identifying them specifically, are some of the hardest workers. Especially when there's no one else doing anything, they're truly doing a service, even if they can't save everyone. You'll see people who are elderly in their comments who are grateful that these videos showed up, it helps a lot
Wow, never thought I'd see (hear) Jim Browning on national TV! The guy is an absolute legend! I'd highly recommend his TH-cam channel, _ESPECIALLY_ to any older people who aren't all that tech savvy and might be more susceptible to these kinds of scams!
He provides such an invaluable service and provides a source of knowledge about these scammers. Watching him string along and expose scammers is incredibly satisfying and something you could watch for hours!
Jim has gotten such a good narrator voice, doesn't he?
Hes like an IT British Morgan Freeman ❤😂
Jim Browning is an absolute hero. I've been watching his videos for years. it's quite funny sometimes to see the scammers panic.
Jim deserves a medal for all the work he does. He is the best scam baiter ever. Thank you Jim 🙏
Jim Browning: The Man Who Scams The Scammers it gold night
about reverse connection: " honestly, i wouldn´t encourage anybody to do this." Jim Browning, Legend, and the godfather of a whole new generation of very efficient scambaiters.
thank you for the great work you do.
People like Jim Browning and Alex Rosen are absolutely heroes.
I've been following Jim Browning for a long time. He's doing an amazing job.
We need 1000 Jims!!
He should get a sort of dream team together with there own warehouse doing this exact thing back to the scammers
They did "the People's Call Center" on "Scammer Payback" with a bunch of different scam baiters. It was epic!
Jim Browning showing more and more of his face. CAREFUL JIM, we need you.
Jim Browning, sir, you're a hero who protect the helpless elders from scammes. Stay safe and blessed be your life.
I dont understand why i loved soo much Jim's voice, is sooo nice to hear❤
Totally cool calm collected bloke , he gets the highest of results in constantly relentlessly battling these horrid evil scammers
He's an absolute weapon! 🙌🏼
Thankyou, Jim Browning!! Appreciate what you do!!!
Love this guy, wish there were more of him.
I truly admire, and Thank you Jim! You are truly a great man. Greetings from California, US 👍
He hacks into their surveillance equipment and watches them while he’s talking to them at times. Love this guy.
Thank you Jim for everything that you are doing
As soon as i here an Indian accent on the end of the phone i cut them off. Watch a lot of Jim's vids great to have people like him around
I played along with a scam call once and I was asked to log onto my computer etc. The scammer asked if I was logged in and I said yes, he then gave me a sequence of keys to press so he could gain access to my ‘PC” one of which was the Windows Key. I played along by telling him I could not find the Windows Key and he told me it was situated to the bottom left of my Keyboard. I proceeded to shuffle around a bit while acting confused and again told him I could not find it. This too and frowning went on for about 10 mins and eventually he asked if I could confirm my computer brand to which I replied “I’m on my iPad” Click, End of Call 😂😂😂😂😂
This is brilliant! I do too play along at times, sometimes I put on a child's voice and inform them my parents aren't home - they immediately put down the phone. Other times I pretend I cannot speak English and have a right op laugh annoying them.
We all love Jim Browning. Legend.
The man,the legend,jim is the man that started many others to take up the fight,jim,pierogi,skeleton syskey,deyo,modder paul,karl rock and the list is growing and trust me scammers are running 🎉
his voice really make me goosebumps
Love watching your shows on u tube. Your a blessing for so many people. The scamers fear you.. ❤
Jim Browning is who Batman aspires to be.
I love Jim!
I love playing along with these scammers on the phone and having them over for half hour +. Love it when they rage 😅😅😅
The man the myth the legend
Amazon drivers do call you sometimes, thats thrown me off in the past, thank you Jim for your tireless work
Been watching Jim for a long time, also scammers payback and trigoly media, Mark rober. If u have seen any of these on you tube. It's a must😂😂😂
That dude hosting the show is like 90% hair dye.
Jim the Legend
Another company that avoids calling people is Microsoft, in fact, they never call, and they have stated numerous times anyone who calls you purporting to be from them is likely a scammer/fraudster posing as them. If you do need to contact them, they would expect you to call them or contact them another way legitimately. This rule applies to most of the large tech firms, they will NEVER call you ever. They have the means and resources to allow you to contact them, and usually, you do not even have to pay for it.
I love when he tells them their names..the gasps are classic!
Jim is a hero.
Protect Jim Browning's identity at ALL COST!
I love how much Rylan is into this!! Love you Jim, keep fighting the good fight…!
Jim is our hero!!!!
host on the left looks like a lazytown character
This mans the final boss of the internet
Jim is such a hero.
Ah yes the master of scam trolling
this man is a true legend. much love from a big fan
Biggest red flag? Someone with a very obvious, very thick accent calling themselves Mike Wilson or some other English sounding name.
Jim Browning should be a Marvel hero. Listen up Marvel!
That talking head is in love with his beard! Good Lord! Whatever it takes . . .
Jim ain't the only one. We got Kitboga and the whole Scammer Payback doing the same stuff.
Sabes como contactarlo?. Necesito ayuda
Jim's real name is Bruce Wayne. He should always wear the full custom.
Not all heroes wear capes
Jim Browning is a treasure!!! 🙌🏿
I love watching mainland programmes & hearing our accent (I can actual understand what's being said 😂)
Jim your bezzer
The Legend.
I always figured he must have had some sort of computer background just never knew. Love his videos.
12-31-23
What he is doing shouldn’t be illegal
One thing Jim doesn’t mention is when he says ‘connected to his computer’ he’s referring to a virtual machine on his computer so he can limit the amount of access to his actual computer
Jim is a F legend his the best and there’s loads of other good ones. 💪💪💪🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
God bless you Jim Browning and i really love you.
I worked as a delivery driver contracted by Amazon. We regularly called customers to get directions to apt etc.
Right. Same.
@@swhiting100 but that would be from your mobiles? Not from some main office number?
Gives meaning to the BeeKeeper
JR
I love this guy
True hero
He’s amazing this guy ❤❤❤
this man really deserves the title of Lord
When the government can't do a thing, in steps Jim.
Jim is a legend! Keep it up Jim. x
Jim, just say....' I will find you, and I will scam you' 😂😂😂.......
Hahaha. I had a scammer say to me something similar "God will punish you!" after I'd had him over for three days. He was raging. I've never had so much fun in my life 😂😂😂
@@colourfulcrafts5492 😂😂😂👍👍
Jim is doing a great job, his job should be protected.
Jim Browning the LEGEND
You don’t mess around with Jim.
You start watching one of Jims videos and you continue till 3am
Jim Browning is a Saint!
great work Jim
Find someone who looks at you the way Rylan looks at Jim
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻bravo that man
Jim Browning and Kitboga were two of the scam busters that inspired me to write a song. Itt's called The Anti Scacammer Song. I thinnk anti scammers are heroes!
He did fall for a scam (sort of). A troll posed as TH-cam Support, and convinced him to take down his channel.
