Prevention would be even better, although that would put Pierogi out of work. If we can just educate people against these blood sucking parasites, they will have to find something else to do
I so want to see him take that one more step: a low jacked Xlite SoftPhone (the app the scammers use to send/receive calls from their computer). Xlite is open source (for the most part). It wouldn't be difficult to just have it filter highly targeted countries (US, AU, UK, etc.), then encrypt and upload the number to a cloud server Pierogi's people monitor. They'd get every number the scammer called or was-called-by in real-time. I'm confident it is also illegal, because it's basically an unwarranted remedial wire-tap, but I wouldn't expect any charges filed (at least not from these colostomy bags).
I would like to thank you from the whole of my heart for doing this. Most channels focus on getting the scammers caught but your top priority is to help victims which I feel is the best approach to get rid of scams once and for all one day. My donation isnt too much but I unfortunately cannot afford much more so I hope it at least helps you improve the channel or goes towards a distressed victim. Thanks again, Dim
Hindi people are beautiful wonderful people from a beautiful ancient culture yet these scammers give the whole of their society a bad name. This sort of thing drives racism and what you are doing is truly a service to the internet community.
Actually they love victimizing old people because they're not that knowledgeable with these stuff or it makes them panic easily. That's why if you have elderly people at home, better to guide them
Strange that it wonders you so much. What kind of artificial guarded world do you live in, that you cant believe in so widespred thing. Its basically theft. And its not the worst human sin. There are man made famine, child prostitution, genocide, slavery...Its not a good idea to be so naive. And thats why thing like scamming happens. Ecpecially romance scamming. These who were treated well and never knew any big sorrows, have a tendency to think, that the whole world is pink and blue.
My dad was scammed just 2 days ago. He had already sent the cash, but thankfully I know someone with ups that was able to stop the package before it was delivered. I knew exactly what was going on because of your channel. Thank you.
That poor old lady broke my heart. So confused. Even when you're saying it's a scam, the emotional impact it had on her still made her think she might have to call her bank. The fact there is someone like you going out to save these people is incredible but also shows that there is a massive void in the policing of our society. Scams are just not taken seriously enough and there needs to be a lot more done to combat this problem. You have my respect and gratitude for each and every victim you rescue from these scams.
I agree, it is a pity they are targeting vulnerable people. Also if she did end up calling her bank, it is good. When in doubt just call your bank anyways. They can check and make sure. And if you are the one who initiated the call to your bank, at least you can be sure it is not a scammer you're talking to. That being said, people need to be aware of Google ads. Sometimes if you Google for a specific problem or phone number, scammers have an ad showing up in the first position. So it is best to go directly to the banks website and retrieve the number if you don't have it saved already.
What we need in the countries where these scammers are targeting victims is for the government to stop any and all aid being given to India. The aid will not be restored until the Indian government cracks down on these criminal enterprises and shuts them down. It is ridiculous that countries give aid while scammers are allowed to operate and steal from citizens whose taxes are paid to help India. Then, maybe, the government of India will do something to stop this.
I work at a customer service desk and a woman wanted to buy a $500 gift card for target ...because of so many scams we have to ask the hard questions...have you been contacted through email and by a phone call...she was contacted through paypal...I told her to go to the police and report them ...I love the work you do to stop people from being scammed you are an inspiration to me to do the same thing 💗
Good you ask the hard questions when selling larger amounts of gift cards! This is a great place to filter such things. I would never be put-off while buying gift cards if there was an extra layer of "were you contacted by phone or email to buy these cards?" Should be standard procedure.
Hello all, I have revealed some of money scammers on my channel too, I would like to invite you all to have a look and show some support to the channel.. Have a nice day..!
Intercepting the scammers victims mid-call is the best thing I've seen, I'm glad the algorithm decided to show me your videos. Thank you for all that you and your colleagues do.
I am hooked on watching you deal with these scammers. I am 76 years old and unfortunately, I was taken by a phone scammer. Thankfully, the amount taken was hurtful and I had to accept it. Police were unable to help which is not unusual. Unfortunately, I was having medical issues and was an easy target. You are helping so many people. Thank you for what you are doing.
I am so sorry this happened to you. It is not unusual for the police nor the bank to not help. My great-aunt had £1000 taken when she was around the same age as you. She was so ashamed; it took her six months before she told any of our family. Thankfully, she has sons and grandsons who are in the tech industry and gave her lowdowns on what to do.
I just gotta say as a 60 yr old veteran in computer science, you guys rock. Thank you so much for helping these elderly folks keep their hard earned savings. God Bless!
It’s crazy that even after the girl learnt that it was a scam, she still felt the need to give an excuse like “I need to go walk my dog” to get off the phone. It’s interesting to see how much they manipulate that, but sickening to hear the real voices of actual victims
actually a good move, she doesn't know if they are just two blocks away .but they now know she has a dog (or not)and it could be a small dog or a big dog, pretty intelligent from the lady
I've watched a few scam baiters. But this puts a whole new light on how scary and dangerous scammers are. Please keep doing what you're doing and bring awareness to this issue.
@@jlaudio8544 I know that. But I also watch these channels. The idea is to share that message to the people who fall for it every 14 seconds with an average loss of $1,000. So I'll do my bit, and if you could leave the same message you did here for others who don't know and inform them of these scams, how they work, and not to call in that'd be great.
@@zacharywhite211 they are not stupid. This people are older and didn't grew up with this kind of technology and had no idea they do this or what that emails mean.
@@zacharywhite211 And they now use programs and websites that are legitimate but once they're there, they will have to contact the scammers. Many of these people are elders too.
Does anybody else get goosebumps whenever Pierogi manages to interrupt a scam-in-progess by calling the victims-to-be to assure them that nothing bad has happened yet?
they're targeting me this week telling me I have to pay $668.40 to social security I knew I'm a disabled person I'm not working since2010 I just I block the scammer
It's shocking to see that not everyone is bewildered about him calling and say it was a scam. I'd probably be wondering if it was some kinda double scam or something.
I work in a major international bank and we see the results of this all the time and it's heartbreaking. People lose thousands of dollars all the time. Life savings gone. Social security gone. The scammers have no empathy and no regard for anyone. Thank you for warning the victims. You are factually saving innocent people from poverty and hardship. If something doesn't seem right, call your bank with the number on the back of your debit card immediately!
@@wbbb2 unfortunately that's not really an option. Not all scammers are based in India, and India is a huge country with a lot of people in it, and a lot of people make perfectly legitimate transfers to India every day. Also, wire transfers are no longer the primary way scammers steal money. One of the most frequent ones are gift card purchases done with cash or debit cards.
@@DaneInTheUS we recently paid money instead of receiving. Pur government warned us from ukrianian scammers, but these that cheated on us were from Lithuania 😢
This is organized crime and officials within governments from around the world are profiting off this which is why the scammers are allowed to operate so freely. Until we let candidates for public office know we will only vote for ones who intend to put nations on notice they will not maintain good diplomatic relations with us if they don't clean this up.
Because of your videos I was able to help a 79 year old man in Walmart today who had his call on speaker. I'll admit I creeped the aisles to make sure it was a scam. He was smart and told "medicare" if you were who you said you are, you would know my address. I asked him if he gave them and information and to hang up. I then educated him as well regarding the main things to look out for from scammers. I even called the number back on my phone to show him it wouldn't go through. He had yet another call come back in and he learned to block them and I immediately called back to show him again it would not go through and was yet another, or the same, scammer. He was feisty to them and was pretty on it! I told him he doesn't need to be kind and stay on the line, they don't deserve your time. Thank you!!
I love seeing how pumped you get when you get a victim on the line and save them from getting scammed. What a rush that must be! You are doing so much good and the creation of The People’s Call Center amplified that by a thousand percent. The scam baiter community is awesome.
Based on watching your videos, hearing the scammers' scripts, and how URLs are altered, helped me to recognize my husband being scammed when I came into the house. I jumped up and down, yelling scam, scam! The scammers were still on the phone with him. He had given them access to his computer and his business credit card number. We canceled the credit card charge and I uninstalled the remote view program by doing a deep scan. Thank you very much for the work that you and your colleagues do. I do want to repay your wonderful service by making a small donation, but don't want the monthly subscription. I'll look into how to do that! With gratitude and respect!
You can press the "Thanks button" If you scroll to the right on the bar with the likes and dislikes you should find a heart with a dollar sign on it. You should be able to make a donation there.
@@Freshest_Water You just helped people. Sometimes in the comments there are people pretending to be the person, but they are liars trying to get the people to follow a link/number so they can ask for money in the comments, no vlogger does that. I always remind people that the real person won't do that! It's also important to note that the REAL video as posted by the original person will be the video with the check mark in the circle next to their name. God bless you for helping people not to be scammed. Forgive how I wrote the English of this comment. But thank you!
@@SRose-vp6ew - I have seen that in some of the other youtube channels. They will be using that channel person's photo thumbnail in the comments and tell people to contact them by clicking on a link.
If you want to donate one time, just give thanks (it’s a heart with a dollar sign in the middle) under a video of your choosing and it lets you type out a comment (that’s highlighted so SP will easily see it) and donate a bit of money alongside that comment.
So I just got a call from a scam caller and about midway through their opening line I just kept saying “scammer payback” over and over. I made it to the start of the third “scammer payback” and heard her mumble expletives in a VERY irritated tone and she hung up immediately. It’s like you guys have given all of us a superpower with how wide spread these scamming call center videos have become. Keep it up y’all! 💙
Its great all the scammers know about this and the other YT channels and it certainly must keep them looking over their shoulder with the anxiety that any call could be a TH-cam anti-scammer trying to expose them. In India I hear it brings a great amount of shame to their family when they are exposed.
I hope you never stop this channel. I advocate for men’s mental health and personally, I watch your videos daily as my “background noise”, for work and home task. Love this stuff lol
Mate, you are a godsend. I work as a faults investigator for a major telecom provider in the UK, and we see cases all of the time where people have been scammed or are receiving so many calls from these bastards. On behalf of them and my colleagues, thank you so much.
My late grandad came out of hospital and couldn’t walk or talk anymore. I answered his phone about 13 times in one day to ‘BT’ asking when he was going to be better again because they need to talk to him urgently about an ‘accidental payment’ they wanted to refund asap. These people are arseholes!!
@@Nunununo Of the highest order! When the weather’s calm and there’s hardly any trouble in the network, we spend a lot of time confirming what are scams or not. You probably already know this, but unless you’ve requested a callback, we will never call you or anyone you know. And if they tell you they’re from OpenReach, they’re talking bollocks.
Hey there, I'm an Indian, watching this from India, and trust me, I really really appreciate you helping out the victims. These scammers operate in broad daylight and no one does a thing to stop them down here. So I really appreciate this. Kudos to your efforts!
@@louisecote3542 well their nothing Anurit can do here , entire system is corrupt . Cops , politicians and these people who work for these scam callcenters have no empathy.
@@louisecote3542" Do something "-- No we can't. They are well connected with and pay a hefty amount to the police, other officials and politicians who let them continue this BS. I did complain and the police simply didn't take one and instead adviced not to launch further complains for my own good. The only hope is that guys like Jim and others make these videos viral on twitter with several hashtags directed to the Government of India and ambassadors of both th countries.
@@louisecote3542 In all fairness to that guy, look at tRump and all the scams he had going. Nobody did anything about it here, until there was a a new president. His cronies are still trying to protect him, despite all the evidence against him.
@@louisecote3542 Mf, its not like its easy to find all of them. They disguise themselves well. They're like drug dealers; you snuff one out, 10 more pop up.
Pierogi, you have restored a bit of my faith in humanity. It is abundantly clear that even though you don't know the victims you genuinely care about them. God bless you and your team and keep on fighting this good fight!
It's depressing looking at a photo of a call center like that and seeing so many people, probably with pretty good educations, putting their talent to use scamming people. How many good things could be accomplished if these people were working toward productive ends. Sad.
I am a senior and was getting called from India a lot and after the things I said about having relations with their family, they would be swearing, screaming back to me thru the call and now when ever they do call and I call them back they don't pick up. You never give any information over the internet, you guys are doing a great service, thanks.
I think you caught onto this while you were talking to the victims. When you say you're on the phone with scammers, they immediately assume that you're the scammer because you're on the phone with them. Maybe "I'm calling you to let you know that the people you were just speaking with are scammers." Love what you're doing to help people out, hopefully this finds you and helps as well. Stay safe, everyone!
Agreed. And I would be up front and suggest they use another phone to call their bank if they want. Maybe independently find the phone number of geeksquad or run to best buy if they want. Something to verify what is true and what is not.
I live in the uk and just found your channel. My daughter tells me never answer emails that ask you to pay a debt that you know nothing about. Don’t let anyone hook up remotely to your computer either. I’m in my sixties and worry about this stuff all the time. These scammers know how to pray on our vulnerability and use scare tactics. Well done to you and your team 😘🇬🇧
@@jpalm2317 Anf what exactly do you suggest we should do? It's not like these guys go around advertising that they are scammers & it's not like we can just go around looking for them. Also, "masala guy"?
@@jpalm2317 Ah so "social pressure" has stopped criminals in your country as well then? It's almost as if bad people do bad things no matter what we do, but obviously you live in some kind of utopia where people no longer do bad things right? And going by your logic, all government & countries are "corrupt" cause they can't stop all criminals. As for justice in India, when people are convicted of a crime in India they are actually punished. They don't get off because of some technicality or because the judge feels the convict "just made a mistake ".
Many of the problems in India with this are that some of local police there are corrupt and don't care b/c they are bribed to let the scammers know when they are about to be raided or shut down
Man 🤣 this is priceless. I've never been scammed whatsoever but I truly appreciate what you're doing for the people that have been. My grandmother got taken for a rather large amount. She's passed since but rest assured she thanks you as well. Much love man
My dad was a U.S. citizen. He only relied on his pension and got scammed last year. That money was meant for his surgery and medicine. He died last year with a broken heart, knowing that the money for his recovery had been stolen. I just saw these streams last night and deeply regret that even I didn't know a thing or two. How I wish I could've helped him. Anyway, thank you for fighting for the vulnerable. Salute!
@@jonathancapestany6379 Punishment of imprisonment and fine. Which will be about 6 months and can extend to 10 years according to the scale of the scam. And the fine will only be anything above the scammer made with scam which can even be doubled or tripled by the scale of the scam. This will only happen if they have strong proof against the scammer. Have to say without that there is a chance that scammer getting out without any problem.
@@anandskumar893 Problem is the same in the USA. If a criminal makes enough money and pays off the right police and politicians, they can get away with practically anything
Hey Dude! I stumbled on this channel few Days ago. Even in Germany we get alot calls from these Scammers…. Im greatful you helped those 3 People out. Keep doing what you are doing ❤
You and your team are just amazing people. Watching these videos give me a little faith in humanity again. I especially loved this concept of interrupting scams and saving victims as it’s going down. You all are definitely getting extra brownie points towards heaven!
Canadian here, always awesome to see countries unite from things like these, cause we all have something very much in common; we hate these scammers with a burning passion
I looked after the elderly for quite a few years in resthomes in New Zealand and it was a privilege to care for them. They are a precious generation. Thank you very much for what u do. 🙏❤️💔💓
I honestly think that every bank should give their customers a warning about these call centres, and especially the elderly people that go to the bank. They should say if they ever get a call from people that say there is a charge on their account to call the bank and verify or something. There has to be a way to end this... its so disgusting that they prey on elderly people.
I do not think that banks have any interest in saving their clients. Me and my family got scammed and my mother felt guilty, and wrote in the complaint that she gave her card number. Of course they rejected her. It is not a huge amopunt of money, but also not small as well. I lost my card 2 months ago and called the bank. I explained the bank I lost and found the card and they refused to unblock my card. After they created me the new card, I had to install my bank app again. I asked the clerk whop guarantees me that my money is safe in that app? The internet is not safe, especially on phones without antivirus softwares. The clerk looked at me and said: "Well, nobody knows if it safe to use it." I would never use that BS, but every business demands you to pay via online banking...😡
I’m elderly but I’ve learned quite a lot from the TH-cam community of scambaiters & im EXTREMELY grateful. Can’t afford the different programs to protect myself BUT I know to delete the garbage & let phone calls go to voicemail and delete from there -then block & report to FTC. Again I’m VERY grateful! Thank each of you!
@@craigt2003 yes that’s 100% of what I’ve learned. I’m from the 50’s which is the generation that was taught to trust many groups of people like elders, teachers, police, etc. THATs why those in my age group can’t fathom deceitful liars who disguise themselves as professionals. We’re also no longer in school to know/understand technology. It’s disgraceful that anyone would prey on these vulnerable ones BUT that’s the reality and very apparently it’s profitable. Thx for your words. I’m hoping others will read it & take heed.
@@vas4739 Yep the Golden Era (same age group as my Parents) Your Generation deserves lots of respect and i personally will do my best to help You're welcome and yes i hope my words help others who are not aware of these scum scammers (Take Care)
@@craigt2003 I’m assuming through poly pharma many of us are not necessarily aware of that implication (s). However I am grateful that through TH-cam and keto sites I’ve been successful with my keto & intermittent fasting journey to get off ALL 17 Rx my PCP & cardiologist had me on. No help from them… only my God through sincere prayers and TH-cam. I’ve outgrown them but I still schedule a well-visit to appease my Medicare. But throughout I’ve seen many scambaiters videos- aside from the VERY limited vocabulary of the scammers I am informed. Know I’m not bulletproof however BUT no one touches my financial resources! I well know the great value of a VPN but I only get on my laptop to use excell spreadsheets to track my monthly expenditures w/confirmation codes. Nothing online. But my iPhone is where I view videos. I’ve had 7 attempts to scam me but I hung up or deleted them.
@@craigt2003 what’s sad is many are taught NOT to be critical thinkers anymore and to me that’s a survival tool. People MUST ask additional questions to see where it leads. Generally Everyone needs to - not be afraid - they MUST become aware!
I’ve personally started asking if they have heard from you lately and how you are doing. Needless to say they are not as amused as I am. Keep rocking it and god bless you for all the scams you kill.
My grandmother was scammed today for $1800. 3 $500 Visa cards and a $300 target gift card. Said they were the police and she needed to pay a fine. The target employee didn’t even say anything to her or ask questions. The worst part is I work in cybersecurity and my father has 20+ years in the IT field and she didn’t think to call us. Truly a shame what they do.
I m in Australia, and I’ve been had once for $350 AUD, how could I have been so stupid! But I absolutely love what you are doing , messing with them and saving innocent victims . I just wish there were guys like you in Australia that expose scammers. Carry on guys, you’re doing a great job. Cheers Phil.
You not Stupid, I have alse just been scammed, and the actually still active trying to get it from Me. I don't really think you try and get out of it but the clever. I lost a lot.
Bro, I can't get enough of watching you stick it to these conscious less thieves. I've been ripped off by these idiots and my heart just jumps with joy each time you turn the tables on them. Keep up the great work. My donation is on the way.
Man - huge respect for the work that you and Jim and team are doing. I am an Indian living in Aus and am ashamed and really sorry that all this is happening to scam and create problems for innocent people.
You're literally a mastermind lol. Dealing with the scammers and wasting their time, while calling up victims and saving them :D Thanks for doing this. I must learn to do the same. Each victim you save, potentially adds them to the fight, they can warn people close to them about these scams lol
I usually have fun watching these videos and feel very happy when you jelp people actively getting scammed, but when that lady said "i'm 88 years old"... my heart just sunk and I almost cried. How can people be that soulless, trying to scam such an old person who has no idea what is even happening...
You guys are the real super heroes, protecting the innocent and taking the fight to the criminals, wish you all the due rewards for such a noble cause.
No Lie the reason why I watch this show in this channel is because my great grandmother once got scammed when she was 87 years old God bless her heart but people like you I've always been like that was me back in the day wanted to do something for people and now you're doing it for us so thank you
This shows how important it is for us to be there for our parents/grandparents. I encourage my elderly mother to call me and ask me about anything she's contacted about before responding. Don't make them feel dumb or bothersome for asking, make them feel smart for being sceptical and getting a second opinion.
I was scammed awhile back. Your videos give me great pleasure to watch. Thanks to your videos I have been able to help 2 people who were being scammed. Keep doing your good work!
Keep up the good fight. I'm tech savvy but came close to losing my savings in an internet banking scam. My defences were lowered as I was away from home and feeling unwell. I thought I was too smart to get scammed. Scammers are psychopathic criminals who will do anything to get your hard earned money.
Thank you so much for everything you guys do!! I was getting PayPal scam calls almost daily (I'm in Auz). The fact they mainly prey on such vulnerable people is sickening! Your work is SO APPRECIATED!! We need more people like you in the world!!!!!
Pierogi, thank you for doing this. You've taught me how to be more vigilant at work. Just yesterday, I had someone call about "vulnerabilities" to our servers and I hung up. They called back right away and said we got disconnected. I replied that the phone reception in Kolkata must suck and hung up again.
I know this isn’t what you meant, but I don’t want scammer hate to be misconstrued as Indian hate or Kulkata hate. India isn’t the problem. Indian people are not the problem. Kulkata isn’t the problem. These scammers are individuals committing crimes. Assuming that they’re based in Kulkata is a step in a dangerous direction of assuming that all scammers are Indian, assuming all Indians are scammers, etc… which we all know isn’t the case. And again, I’m not saying that you’re saying that, but the assumption was already made about where they are located. It’s not a far jump to start making other assumptions when we have no idea how true they are. They very well could have been working remote from their house outside of Kulkata. Ya know? We have no proof that they are there, specifically.
@@PtylerBeats Yes, we have proof that they're there, because Pierogi's other videos have proven it. These call centers have 3 people working in a legitimate customer service department that the police won't investigate the other 25 people who are actually running a scam, because these scammers will point at the 3 actual people.
They are in bangalore where big companies Outsourced tech to. When that outsourcing ended they started scam. I've visited India and even a drive out the police will stop and extort a bribe from you The women warn me not to go out alone come back drunk, as they will rob me and attack me The young girl was raped to death in goa. They do still stone ppl to death Elderly in India left out to die. Very dangerous country
you are one of the very rare indians who is mature enough to not have blind patriotism. India is considered to be the worst country on earth and yet indians refuse to evolve.
I'm sorry for ashamed Indians. I so much love India. Too bad of these people, thay make bad reputation. Btw I've never been in India, but I was in culture, working 3 years, there was lots of Inds, Hindu people etc. Most of them (or better said almost all of them) would never steal anything. Very good people.
@@warrax111 you don't know most Indians then. Majority have a very corrupt, disgusting mindset. They should be banned in the same way we ban immigrants from dangerous countries.
I just recently discovered you Pierogi and I'm so happy that you were able to save the 3 people. I'm now addicted to your videos and you certainly kept me on my toes when you were calling the victims. Anyway, thank you from the bottom of my heart and if I can volunteer in any way, I'm available, but live in Canada. Hope it doesn't matter, but I'm a 65 yr old female that can make phone calls and keep them busy as my daughter and I used to mess around with scammers. I'd definitely be more than willing to help. Cheers
Gosh! I can feel the excitement! I really feel sorry for the ones who had to go through scams and couldn’t be saved as those people thanks to this amazing TH-camr. Thank you.
Can you PPLLLEEEAASSEE re-open the Call Center? I did NOT get ONE call that entire week!!! You all are totally AWESOME souls. May God Bless you richly for all that you do.
As someone who works in I.T. and deals with this stuff all the time, the most painful part is when you try to convince people it's a scam and they don't know if you're telling them the truth 😢
Thank you for all you do ! I get these scam E-mails all the time and have talked to others ( seniors) who think they are real and I constantly try to alert people to NOT call the number. Keep up the good work you do!
It must be like Christmas every time you get to screw over these scammers. You look so giddy when you save even one person from these people. You are doing a great service.
You are saving so many people who have worked their entire life to accumulate this money from this selfish scammers so keep it up my brother 😊 I wish you and your partners a good luck 🙏
God, Perogie, I LOVE your work. I'm desktop support, so I appreciate what you are doing. I have private elderly clients that would most certainly fall victim to these assholes and I've advised them NEVER to allow remote support!
You guys are amazing. We need more people like you guys today helping especially our seniors who we all know get scared easily and fall these scammers.
Bro, your hat. It’s either THERE or THEY’RE 💯 but never THEIR ❌
I can't freaking spell that any more!

Must be "then" just to be new.
No, in English 'Their' is correct. 'There' is as 'over there', 'they're' is they are, so the motto on the hat is correct.

It's absolutely horrible, they like to think of them as easy targets
Actually they love victimizing old people because they're not that knowledgeable with these stuff or it makes them panic easily. That's why if you have elderly people at home, better to guide them
Strange that it wonders you so much. What kind of artificial guarded world do you live in, that you cant believe in so widespred thing. Its basically theft. And its not the worst human sin. There are man made famine, child prostitution, genocide, slavery...Its not a good idea to be so naive. And thats why thing like scamming happens. Ecpecially romance scamming. These who were treated well and never knew any big sorrows, have a tendency to think, that the whole world is pink and blue.
My dad was scammed just 2 days ago. He had already sent the cash, but thankfully I know someone with ups that was able to stop the package before it was delivered. I knew exactly what was going on because of your channel. Thank you.
Good catch!!
How does Ur Dad feel about it ? Could he be scammed again ?
@@leadsolo2751 I think he learned a lesson.
@@whatugonnadu great hope your family. Won't fall for scams again
@@leadsolo2751 Why you asking tho?
That poor old lady broke my heart. So confused. Even when you're saying it's a scam, the emotional impact it had on her still made her think she might have to call her bank. The fact there is someone like you going out to save these people is incredible but also shows that there is a massive void in the policing of our society. Scams are just not taken seriously enough and there needs to be a lot more done to combat this problem. You have my respect and gratitude for each and every victim you rescue from these scams.
I agree, it is a pity they are targeting vulnerable people. Also if she did end up calling her bank, it is good. When in doubt just call your bank anyways. They can check and make sure. And if you are the one who initiated the call to your bank, at least you can be sure it is not a scammer you're talking to.
That being said, people need to be aware of Google ads. Sometimes if you Google for a specific problem or phone number, scammers have an ad showing up in the first position. So it is best to go directly to the banks website and retrieve the number if you don't have it saved already.
There's not anything that can be done, the police in the US can't go to India to arrest the scammers, and the police in India are corrupt and bribed
I would love to see a State by State petition to obtain Government funding for this project.!!
What we need in the countries where these scammers are targeting victims is for the government to stop any and all aid being given to India. The aid will not be restored until the Indian government cracks down on these criminal enterprises and shuts them down. It is ridiculous that countries give aid while scammers are allowed to operate and steal from citizens whose taxes are paid to help India. Then, maybe, the government of India will do something to stop this.

The victims ending the call is always a win.

ALWAYS a big fat W

When a fish doesn't take your lure do you call it a win? It's just the first pass. They'll be back unfortunately.
@@zacharysherry2910 what?
I love how happy he is when he saves someone from losing money. Thank you for fighting the good fight.
hearing the woman hang up on the scammer must have been so validating. thank you so much for trying to help out the victims.
I work at a customer service desk and a woman wanted to buy a $500 gift card for target ...because of so many scams we have to ask the hard questions...have you been contacted through email and by a phone call...she was contacted through paypal...I told her to go to the police and report them ...I love the work you do to stop people from being scammed you are an inspiration to me to do the same thing 💗
Good you ask the hard questions when selling larger amounts of gift cards! This is a great place to filter such things. I would never be put-off while buying gift cards if there was an extra layer of "were you contacted by phone or email to buy these cards?" Should be standard procedure.
Hello all, I have revealed some of money scammers on my channel too, I would like to invite you all to have a look and show some support to the channel.. Have a nice day..!
You are doing the right thing, and at the same time raising awareness which is very helpful and important. Good for you.
Please help them
God bless you!!
Intercepting the scammers victims mid-call is the best thing I've seen, I'm glad the algorithm decided to show me your videos. Thank you for all that you and your colleagues do.
Same thing happened to me with the algorithm yesterday, seeing him helping innocent people mid call gives me such a good feeling inside.
The algorithm blessed me on Thursday and I've already watched a couple hundred of his videos lol
I am hooked on watching you deal with these scammers. I am 76 years old and unfortunately, I was taken by a phone scammer. Thankfully, the amount taken was hurtful and I had to accept it. Police were unable to help which is not unusual.
Unfortunately, I was having medical issues and was an easy target. You are helping so many people. Thank you for what you are doing.
I am so sorry this happened to you. It is not unusual for the police nor the bank to not help.
My great-aunt had £1000 taken when she was around the same age as you. She was so ashamed; it took her six months before she told any of our family. Thankfully, she has sons and grandsons who are in the tech industry and gave her lowdowns on what to do.
you're a saint, we need more people like you in this crazy world, props my man
Honestly makes me wanna cry how wholesome this dude and his team are
Ur a true guardian angel
I love the “let’s go” at the end of every call. This man is on a heroism high that I don’t ever want him to come down from
I just gotta say as a 60 yr old veteran in computer science, you guys rock. Thank you so much for helping these elderly folks keep their hard earned savings. God Bless!
You're not a veteran.
@@aarons6935I’m sorry. What gives you the right to even say that?
It’s crazy that even after the girl learnt that it was a scam, she still felt the need to give an excuse like “I need to go walk my dog” to get off the phone.
It’s interesting to see how much they manipulate that, but sickening to hear the real voices of actual victims
actually a good move, she doesn't know if they are just two blocks away .but they now know she has a dog (or not)and it could be a small dog or a big dog, pretty intelligent from the lady
Honestly, I think the average person is genuinely kind-hearted; she was just trying to be polite.
Scammers are also vindictive little roaches, i cursed one out and he kept calling just to harass me, i had fun but i imagine that sweet lady wouldnt.
I would have just hung up 😂
She was being polite, some people just find hanging up the phone really rude
I've watched a few scam baiters. But this puts a whole new light on how scary and dangerous scammers are. Please keep doing what you're doing and bring awareness to this issue.
not that scary, literally just don't call them and you're fine
@@jlaudio8544 I know that. But I also watch these channels. The idea is to share that message to the people who fall for it every 14 seconds with an average loss of $1,000. So I'll do my bit, and if you could leave the same message you did here for others who don't know and inform them of these scams, how they work, and not to call in that'd be great.
It's great work. But I'm shocked by how stupid people can be.
@@zacharywhite211 they are not stupid. This people are older and didn't grew up with this kind of technology and had no idea they do this or what that emails mean.
@@zacharywhite211 And they now use programs and websites that are legitimate but once they're there, they will have to contact the scammers.
Many of these people are elders too.
Does anybody else get goosebumps whenever Pierogi manages to interrupt a scam-in-progess by calling the victims-to-be to assure them that nothing bad has happened yet?
It's a wild ride every time, for sure. And if _I_ feel this good over here, I can't even imagine how they are feeling there. Bless them!
they're targeting me this week telling me I have to pay $668.40 to social security I knew I'm a disabled person I'm not working since2010 I just I block the scammer
I would love to see a petition to obtain Government funding for this project.
It's shocking to see that not everyone is bewildered about him calling and say it was a scam. I'd probably be wondering if it was some kinda double scam or something.
I work in a major international bank and we see the results of this all the time and it's heartbreaking. People lose thousands of dollars all the time. Life savings gone. Social security gone. The scammers have no empathy and no regard for anyone. Thank you for warning the victims. You are factually saving innocent people from poverty and hardship. If something doesn't seem right, call your bank with the number on the back of your debit card immediately!
Why can't the USA put a 5 day hold on all money going to India? Give people a change to fix their mistakes? Guess I'm too smart?
@@wbbb2 unfortunately that's not really an option. Not all scammers are based in India, and India is a huge country with a lot of people in it, and a lot of people make perfectly legitimate transfers to India every day. Also, wire transfers are no longer the primary way scammers steal money. One of the most frequent ones are gift card purchases done with cash or debit cards.
@@DaneInTheUS we recently paid money instead of receiving. Pur government warned us from ukrianian scammers, but these that cheated on us were from Lithuania 😢
This is organized crime and officials within governments from around the world are profiting off this which is why the scammers are allowed to operate so freely. Until we let candidates for public office know we will only vote for ones who intend to put nations on notice they will not maintain good diplomatic relations with us if they don't clean this up.
I would love to see a State by State petition to get Government funding for this project.
Because of your videos I was able to help a 79 year old man in Walmart today who had his call on speaker. I'll admit I creeped the aisles to make sure it was a scam. He was smart and told "medicare" if you were who you said you are, you would know my address. I asked him if he gave them and information and to hang up. I then educated him as well regarding the main things to look out for from scammers. I even called the number back on my phone to show him it wouldn't go through. He had yet another call come back in and he learned to block them and I immediately called back to show him again it would not go through and was yet another, or the same, scammer. He was feisty to them and was pretty on it! I told him he doesn't need to be kind and stay on the line, they don't deserve your time.
Thank you!!
I love seeing how pumped you get when you get a victim on the line and save them from getting scammed. What a rush that must be! You are doing so much good and the creation of The People’s Call Center amplified that by a thousand percent. The scam baiter community is awesome.
Based on watching your videos, hearing the scammers' scripts, and how URLs are altered, helped me to recognize my husband being scammed when I came into the house. I jumped up and down, yelling scam, scam! The scammers were still on the phone with him. He had given them access to his computer and his business credit card number. We canceled the credit card charge and I uninstalled the remote view program by doing a deep scan. Thank you very much for the work that you and your colleagues do. I do want to repay your wonderful service by making a small donation, but don't want the monthly subscription. I'll look into how to do that! With gratitude and respect!
Congratulations on nipping it in the bud so efficiently.
You can press the "Thanks button" If you scroll to the right on the bar with the likes and dislikes you should find a heart with a dollar sign on it. You should be able to make a donation there.
@@Freshest_Water You just helped people. Sometimes in the comments there are people pretending to be the person, but they are liars trying to get the people to follow a link/number so they can ask for money in the comments, no vlogger does that. I always remind people that the real person won't do that! It's also important to note that the REAL video as posted by the original person will be the video with the check mark in the circle next to their name. God bless you for helping people not to be scammed. Forgive how I wrote the English of this comment. But thank you!
@@SRose-vp6ew - I have seen that in some of the other youtube channels. They will be using that channel person's photo thumbnail in the comments and tell people to contact them by clicking on a link.
If you want to donate one time, just give thanks (it’s a heart with a dollar sign in the middle) under a video of your choosing and it lets you type out a comment (that’s highlighted so SP will easily see it) and donate a bit of money alongside that comment.
So I just got a call from a scam caller and about midway through their opening line I just kept saying “scammer payback” over and over. I made it to the start of the third “scammer payback” and heard her mumble expletives in a VERY irritated tone and she hung up immediately. It’s like you guys have given all of us a superpower with how wide spread these scamming call center videos have become. Keep it up y’all! 💙
Don't do that. Keep them on the line as long as possible. Waste their time!
@@KateHornby I would have if I wasn’t in the middle of driving my son to school lol
@@KateHornby I tried doing that but I’m the end told I just told them to sod off
Its great all the scammers know about this and the other YT channels and it certainly must keep them looking over their shoulder with the anxiety that any call could be a TH-cam anti-scammer trying to expose them. In India I hear it brings a great amount of shame to their family when they are exposed.
@@Thursyy Its horrible how those scammers steal time from us while we are trying to spend it with our family.
I hope you never stop this channel. I advocate for men’s mental health and personally, I watch your videos daily as my “background noise”, for work and home task.
Love this stuff lol
saving that 88yr old lady from scammers ... You guys are a class act!!! & keep up the great work guys.. god bless u all
Mate, you are a godsend. I work as a faults investigator for a major telecom provider in the UK, and we see cases all of the time where people have been scammed or are receiving so many calls from these bastards. On behalf of them and my colleagues, thank you so much.
My late grandad came out of hospital and couldn’t walk or talk anymore. I answered his phone about 13 times in one day to ‘BT’ asking when he was going to be better again because they need to talk to him urgently about an ‘accidental payment’ they wanted to refund asap. These people are arseholes!!
@@Nunununo Of the highest order! When the weather’s calm and there’s hardly any trouble in the network, we spend a lot of time confirming what are scams or not.
You probably already know this, but unless you’ve requested a callback, we will never call you or anyone you know. And if they tell you they’re from OpenReach, they’re talking bollocks.
Hey there, I'm an Indian, watching this from India, and trust me, I really really appreciate you helping out the victims. These scammers operate in broad daylight and no one does a thing to stop them down here. So I really appreciate this. Kudos to your efforts!
@@louisecote3542 well their nothing Anurit can do here , entire system is corrupt . Cops , politicians and these people who work for these scam callcenters have no empathy.
@@louisecote3542" Do something "-- No we can't. They are well connected with and pay a hefty amount to the police, other officials and politicians who let them continue this BS. I did complain and the police simply didn't take one and instead adviced not to launch further complains for my own good. The only hope is that guys like Jim and others make these videos viral on twitter with several hashtags directed to the Government of India and ambassadors of both th countries.
@@Humble.fool05 I think it's really great when they delete all their files. Too bad their bank accounts can't be redirected to some charity.

That elderly lady was on the ball. They always try to rip off older folks. Hassle these criminals, people.
Pierogi, you have restored a bit of my faith in humanity. It is abundantly clear that even though you don't know the victims you genuinely care about them.
God bless you and your team and keep on fighting this good fight!
God is a hoax.
Pierogi does care. I've seen him get emotional about rescuing potential scam victims. It's not an act.
I love how he's casually drinking a beer and doing work ruining their evil plans. Very satisfying
It's depressing looking at a photo of a call center like that and seeing so many people, probably with pretty good educations, putting their talent to use scamming people. How many good things could be accomplished if these people were working toward productive ends. Sad.
That’s india for you!… They will laugh at your liberal western way of thinking which they see as a weakness!
I'm not convinced they have good educations.
These people don’t have an education. Otherwise they wouldn’t be scammers.
Even sadder, some of the more deluded scammers are using colonialism as justification for their actions.
If they were educated, they wouldn't be scamming people.
I am a senior and was getting called from India a lot and after the things I said about having relations with their family, they would be swearing, screaming back to me thru the call and now when ever they do call and I call them back they don't pick up.
You never give any information over the internet, you guys are doing a great service, thanks.
I think you caught onto this while you were talking to the victims. When you say you're on the phone with scammers, they immediately assume that you're the scammer because you're on the phone with them. Maybe "I'm calling you to let you know that the people you were just speaking with are scammers." Love what you're doing to help people out, hopefully this finds you and helps as well. Stay safe, everyone!
I noticed this as well but at least the victims hung up on everyone!
Agreed. And I would be up front and suggest they use another phone to call their bank if they want. Maybe independently find the phone number of geeksquad or run to best buy if they want. Something to verify what is true and what is not.
@@coffeeteamix Many people use online banking apps, which I think is the quickest/easiest. It literally takes a few seconds using a fingerprint.
I thought the same thing, his approach sounds really sketchy. He needs a script. I think he’s usually just really excited to help them out.
I live in the uk and just found your channel. My daughter tells me never answer emails that ask you to pay a debt that you know nothing about. Don’t let anyone hook up remotely to your computer either. I’m in my sixties and worry about this stuff all the time. These scammers know how to pray on our vulnerability and use scare tactics. Well done to you and your team 😘🇬🇧
As an Indian, thank you. Scammers are scum & I would like nothing more than them to suffer.

so why don't you do something masala guy?
@@jpalm2317 Anf what exactly do you suggest we should do? It's not like these guys go around advertising that they are scammers & it's not like we can just go around looking for them. Also, "masala guy"?
@@wilsonmashi3368 it is called social pressure on these criminals tikka guy, as justice in India does not exist and authorities are corrupt
@@jpalm2317 Ah so "social pressure" has stopped criminals in your country as well then? It's almost as if bad people do bad things no matter what we do, but obviously you live in some kind of utopia where people no longer do bad things right? And going by your logic, all government & countries are "corrupt" cause they can't stop all criminals.
As for justice in India, when people are convicted of a crime in India they are actually punished. They don't get off because of some technicality or because the judge feels the convict "just made a mistake ".
Any member of law enforcement should be absolutely ashamed that this happens in our country.
Many of the problems in India with this are that some of local police there are corrupt and don't care b/c they are bribed to let the scammers know when they are about to be raided or shut down
@@johncherish7610 of course they are corrupt. They still have a caste system for gods sake.
Thanks for fighting against these scammers.

She's passed since but rest assured she thanks you as well. Much love man

The fact that he saved Betty then swooped in and took over as Betty is legendary 😂😭😭😭
as a Geek Squad agent myself, this makes me sad to see the people calling these scammers.
My dad was a U.S. citizen. He only relied on his pension and got scammed last year. That money was meant for his surgery and medicine. He died last year with a broken heart, knowing that the money for his recovery had been stolen. I just saw these streams last night and deeply regret that even I didn't know a thing or two. How I wish I could've helped him. Anyway, thank you for fighting for the vulnerable. Salute!
So sorry to hear . I got scammed too last November 1 this year .
I work for a bank and these videos have directly helped me assist my customers in stopping these types of scams
First of all i am from India and I am so ashamed that these scam are mostly from India I am also proud of what you are doing man. Keep going ❤️❤️❤️❤️
just out of curiosity what would your country will do if they catch a scammer doing this type of behavior?? torture, chamber, hit them with a sandal??
@@jonathancapestany6379 Punishment of imprisonment and fine. Which will be about 6 months and can extend to 10 years according to the scale of the scam. And the fine will only be anything above the scammer made with scam which can even be doubled or tripled by the scale of the scam.
This will only happen if they have strong proof against the scammer. Have to say without that there is a chance that scammer getting out without any problem.
@@anandskumar893 Problem is the same in the USA. If a criminal makes enough money and pays off the right police and politicians, they can get away with practically anything
@@JoSeeFuss So it's the same everywhere. What a world
No need to be ashamed of something you didnt do. Scammers suck and are in all country's.

I honestly think that every bank should give their customers a warning about these call centres, and especially the elderly people that go to the bank. They should say if they ever get a call from people that say there is a charge on their account to call the bank and verify or something. There has to be a way to end this... its so disgusting that they prey on elderly people.
Several are starting to but I don't know if it's the clerk's practice or the banks policy.
Mine has been doing so for several years
@meme_lover It's hard giving advice these days. People switch from "Don't tell me what to do." to "Why didn't you tell me?" at the drop of a hat.
They are. But there is so many scams that they cant stop them all
I do not think that banks have any interest in saving their clients. Me and my family got scammed and my mother felt guilty, and wrote in the complaint that she gave her card number. Of course they rejected her. It is not a huge amopunt of money, but also not small as well. I lost my card 2 months ago and called the bank. I explained the bank I lost and found the card and they refused to unblock my card. After they created me the new card, I had to install my bank app again. I asked the clerk whop guarantees me that my money is safe in that app? The internet is not safe, especially on phones without antivirus softwares. The clerk looked at me and said: "Well, nobody knows if it safe to use it." I would never use that BS, but every business demands you to pay via online banking...😡
I’m elderly but I’ve learned quite a lot from the TH-cam community of scambaiters & im EXTREMELY grateful. Can’t afford the different programs to protect myself BUT I know to delete the garbage & let phone calls go to voicemail and delete from there -then block & report to FTC.
Again I’m VERY grateful! Thank each of you!
@@craigt2003 yes that’s 100% of what I’ve learned. I’m from the 50’s which is the generation that was taught to trust many groups of people like elders, teachers, police, etc. THATs why those in my age group can’t fathom deceitful liars who disguise themselves as professionals. We’re also no longer in school to know/understand technology.
It’s disgraceful that anyone would prey on these vulnerable ones BUT that’s the reality and very apparently it’s profitable.

No help from them… only my God through sincere prayers and TH-cam. I’ve outgrown them but I still schedule a well-visit to appease my Medicare.
But throughout I’ve seen many scambaiters videos- aside from the VERY limited vocabulary of the scammers I am informed. Know I’m not bulletproof however BUT no one touches my financial resources!

I’ve personally started asking if they have heard from you lately and how you are doing. Needless to say they are not as amused as I am. Keep rocking it and god bless you for all the scams you kill.
I love the satisfaction and excitement you get when you call these potential victims and help them out. It's great. Keep up the good work.
My grandmother was scammed today for $1800. 3 $500 Visa cards and a $300 target gift card. Said they were the police and she needed to pay a fine. The target employee didn’t even say anything to her or ask questions. The worst part is I work in cybersecurity and my father has 20+ years in the IT field and she didn’t think to call us. Truly a shame what they do.

For helping all our grandparents and our elderly moms and pops. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. 💕 peace and love yall
This shows how important it is for us to be there for our parents/grandparents. I encourage my elderly mother to call me and ask me about anything she's contacted about before responding. Don't make them feel dumb or bothersome for asking, make them feel smart for being sceptical and getting a second opinion.
Pierogi, please NEVER STOP!!! You’re saving so many people and you create a wide awareness. We need you man, you’re awesome!!! ❤️
These guys are serious and dedicated and they are making a huge difference. Thank you so much
It's awesome seeing how happy you get when you save someone from getting scammed. It's a beautiful thing! Keep up the good work! 🤘🤘
I was scammed awhile back. Your videos give me great pleasure to watch. Thanks to your videos I have been able to help 2 people who were being scammed. Keep doing your good work!
Keep up the good fight. I'm tech savvy but came close to losing my savings in an internet banking scam. My defences were lowered as I was away from home and feeling unwell. I thought I was too smart to get scammed. Scammers are psychopathic criminals who will do anything to get your hard earned money.
This was awesome, love how you intercepted calls and helped the victims immediately. You are doing society a great service sir. Thank You.
Thank you so much for everything you guys do!! I was getting PayPal scam calls almost daily (I'm in Auz). The fact they mainly prey on such vulnerable people is sickening! Your work is SO APPRECIATED!! We need more people like you in the world!!!!!
Oh wow that first older lady sounded just like my grandma, I love what you do for these people
Pierogi, thank you for doing this. You've taught me how to be more vigilant at work. Just yesterday, I had someone call about "vulnerabilities" to our servers and I hung up. They called back right away and said we got disconnected. I replied that the phone reception in Kolkata must suck and hung up again.
I know this isn’t what you meant, but I don’t want scammer hate to be misconstrued as Indian hate or Kulkata hate. India isn’t the problem. Indian people are not the problem. Kulkata isn’t the problem. These scammers are individuals committing crimes. Assuming that they’re based in Kulkata is a step in a dangerous direction of assuming that all scammers are Indian, assuming all Indians are scammers, etc… which we all know isn’t the case.
And again, I’m not saying that you’re saying that, but the assumption was already made about where they are located. It’s not a far jump to start making other assumptions when we have no idea how true they are. They very well could have been working remote from their house outside of Kulkata. Ya know? We have no proof that they are there, specifically.
@@PtylerBeats Yes, we have proof that they're there, because Pierogi's other videos have proven it. These call centers have 3 people working in a legitimate customer service department that the police won't investigate the other 25 people who are actually running a scam, because these scammers will point at the 3 actual people.
They are in bangalore where big companies Outsourced tech to.
When that outsourcing ended they started scam.
I've visited India and even a drive out the police will stop and extort a bribe from you
The women warn me not to go out alone come back drunk, as they will rob me and attack me
The young girl was raped to death in goa.
They do still stone ppl to death
Elderly in India left out to die.
Very dangerous country
You're a hero. I'm from India & I'm ashamed of these scammers.
Keep the great work going💯❤️
No need for you to be ashamed. Regardless of ethnicity, crooks will always find a way to be crooks. Crooks are in every race and nation.
you are one of the very rare indians who is mature enough to not have blind patriotism. India is considered to be the worst country on earth and yet indians refuse to evolve.
I'm sorry for ashamed Indians. I so much love India. Too bad of these people, thay make bad reputation. Btw I've never been in India, but I was in culture, working 3 years, there was lots of Inds, Hindu people etc. Most of them (or better said almost all of them) would never steal anything. Very good people.
@@warrax111 you don't know most Indians then. Majority have a very corrupt, disgusting mindset. They should be banned in the same way we ban immigrants from dangerous countries.
Dude I love how pumped you get when you save someone from the headache
I just recently discovered you Pierogi and I'm so happy that you were able to save the 3 people. I'm now addicted to your videos and you certainly kept me on my toes when you were calling the victims. Anyway, thank you from the bottom of my heart and if I can volunteer in any way, I'm available, but live in Canada. Hope it doesn't matter, but I'm a 65 yr old female that can make phone calls and keep them busy as my daughter and I used to mess around with scammers. I'd definitely be more than willing to help. Cheers
You people are awesome. I NEVER answer a random call! Any legit caller will leave a voicemail! Shut these losers down!
Gosh! I can feel the excitement!
I really feel sorry for the ones who had to go through scams and couldn’t be saved as those people thanks to this amazing TH-camr. Thank you.
Can you PPLLLEEEAASSEE re-open the Call Center? I did NOT get ONE call that entire week!!! You all are totally AWESOME souls. May God Bless you richly for all that you do.
As someone who works in I.T. and deals with this stuff all the time, the most painful part is when you try to convince people it's a scam and they don't know if you're telling them the truth 😢
I love how happy he gets when he helps someone from getting scanned.. ur a legend bro
Thank you for all you do ! I get these scam E-mails all the time and have talked to others ( seniors) who think they are real and I constantly try to alert people to NOT call the number.
Keep up the good work you do!
It must be like Christmas every time you get to screw over these scammers. You look so giddy when you save even one person from these people. You are doing a great service.
It feels so relief when the people picks up and he warns them
You are saving so many people who have worked their entire life to accumulate this money from this selfish scammers so keep it up my brother 😊 I wish you and your partners a good luck 🙏
@@MukeshKumar-bt2xv Lol, you're in every comment. Looks like someone is salty after being exposed. 💀
@@MukeshKumar-bt2xv Are you a scammer my friend 🤨
@@heisenberg7935 He has some explained to do 😂
@@abebe371 he sure is. There is a video up on this channel with his picture. He's mad he got exposed.
@@heisenberg7935 the video is called LETS SHOW A SCAMMER HIS PICTURE. posted about a month ago. Salty is putting it nicely
This is the best content! Keep busting those scammers!
God, Perogie, I LOVE your work. I'm desktop support, so I appreciate what you are doing. I have private elderly clients that would most certainly fall victim to these assholes and I've advised them NEVER to allow remote support!
You single handedly did what our own Government has been unable to do..
You guys are amazing. We need more people like you guys today helping especially our seniors who we all know get scared easily and fall these scammers.
