- Get Surfshark VPN at surfshark.deal... - Enter promo code TRILOGY for 83% off and 3 extra months for FREE! *** We’re about to CONFRONT A SCAMMER in Kolkata, India. He has no idea that he’s about to see us, he doesn’t even know we’re in his country. But he knows who we are, and some of you may know him as well. He’s an ex-scammer that we refer to as Monu. He’s an ex scammer, or some may say current scammer, who repeatedly lied to us at Trilogy Media, duped us out of money, and harassed our Squad for months trying to solicit donations from them directly. After repeated lies from him and promises that he’ll stop, it continued, and continued, and continued. For this video, we’re currently in Kolkata, India filming several different projects, and while we’re here, we’re gonna trick Monu into our hotel room, and Art and I are going to walk out of the bathroom to confront him. And you won’t believe the look on his face. And make sure you watch to the end to see something that’s never happened to us on this channel.

i love you guys
THANK YOU ALL 💜🙌🏼✝️
Good on you! The high road is always best.
I watch you guys everyday I only hope in my 46 years I can make a life's difference like you guys have all of you guys make my life happy in my tuffest time right no you don't even know
Love you all very much huge fan Blessings to you all ❤️🙏
Comment whatever you want here, but please do not go to Monu and send hate. You're better than that.
This is the reason 🥺 why people lost in trust 🥺
Trust is like mirror once broken mean can't fix it
*Dear Trilogy, I've been subscribed for a long time...*
I've donated a decent amount of funds... *Several days ago, I sent ya guys a screenshot of my email; had 2 scammers, 1 posed as McFee, other as Amazon!* I haven't heard back. Am I wasting my time, or perhaps you guys were busy?
*Appreciate what y'all do, ciao for now, R*
It's hard to experience such social pain. I hope he becomes his best.
To true,fair play to all u guys...🇬🇧✌️
He seems to be a good kid..
Thank you so so much...for helping 💓. Much love and respect to you Triliogy ❤
As an Indian I can confirm this scammer is emotionally blackmailing you..
Don't fall in their trap. Be safe guys.
This is a dangerous country
⚠️⚠️( When I said dangerous I meant police is bribed here and does nothing against those scammer .. Instead scammers are powerful here .....
Some people are fighting over a term in replies )
Yep. This kid is playing them big time.
Yh
Every country is a dangerous country ✨
yepp totally
True. In India trust is ........
I’m halfway through right now, I sit with the feeling of crocodile tears. Like dealing with a long time alcoholic - I dont trust him
I mean yes, most people are apologetic for being caught and being yelled at, not for doing wrong.
Same here.
I donot understand why do white people fall so easily for these ruthless criminals and beggars. I am from Kolkata, and just from the first glances of this "Monu" I could tell he is a fraudster.
Yeah, may be I am judgemental, but we have to judge people head to toe everyday, to stay safe. This Monu has a scammer vibe about him, that bleached hair, full sleeve t-shirt...this dressing sense alone says he is from a shabby background(yes, we have to judge this way, sorry but this is a reality here). Just ask any Indian how does he feel about this person from first glance.
It would be an honour for me to punch this despicable kid and instill some values in him. A slap or two will fix him...and I am sure, that's the only way.
He's so lucky Ashton has a BIG heart. Can we get an update with proof that this dude is on the right path and is staying there? Good job TriologyMedia!
I never trusted him. And I'm glad when I thought I should donate I just said no. Especially knowing that many people said he har@ssed them repeatedly for money. Also as someone who dealt with someone like this for 8 years, those tears remind me of fake narcissistic tears. I can't feel bad for this person. I've also been poor and never resorted to this type of thing
Deffo fake tears an he took them for a ride an still managed to leave with sympothy jeeze they are so easily manipulated its a joke
@@martynchannel2983 I kinda knew this was coming after everyone called Markissimo a double crosser early on when they first tried to help him (although this turned out not to be true) I saw how more scammers were renouncing the job and that they seem to trust very easily and knew this would come back to bite them. I don’t think Monu has changed his ways but I’d like to be proven wrong but I think if a scammer reaches out and really wants help, Art & Ash should really utilise Jaani to track the locations of these individuals so worst case they get ripped off like Monu did with them at least they know where to confront them
@@mikle2129 id say a scammer quitting scamming is like a heroin addict giving up or a prostitute stopping working because there is no bennefit to the scammer if he stops then he loses a big income an wouldnt get 10% of that in a real job what happens most is they just close 1 business when its reputation is too destroyed to turn a profit then open another (its easy to do just register a business that looks real an rent ashit hole in india then get a few phones and an take all ya staff to the new location) probably do it in less than a week new names new locations and some fake positive reviews online.. but yh the guy in this video pissed me off from the start with the fake tears and the hugging for no reason trying to manipulate their anger into lovelyness which they did let happen and his grasp of english was bull aswel because 1 minute he understood well next min hes hiding behined his indian friend saying he didnt understand bla bla bla.. im not saying they should go in all guns blazing but they should be straight to the point fire a question at him then allow him to explain a little then question etc because what they have effectivly done is used their own fans money to support a bloody scammer then the scammer just mugged them off then when they go to "confront him" he mugs them off in person with crocodile tears. I like what they do an their hearts in the right place an i like art but the other 2 should stay at home for sure they bring nothing to the table when out an about doing a confrontation but they have other skills maybe such as tech skills uno i basically think they should get training or get other people to do the confronting while they focus on the tech but art should still do confrontation cos hes good lol an he wasnt about to be a soft fanny until ash started hugging him an licking his arse 🙄
You're right those we're crocodile tears
This. Just this.
Speaking as an Indian, be very careful when dealing with indians below 30, boys and girls alike. Everyone here ends up being very experienced with emotional manipulation. Actions like crying and hugging should not be taken on face value, no matter how genuine it seems. It's almost always done as an opening move to relieve tension and change any anger to sympathy/pity.
The only gesture that you can trust is genuine, when the person is feeling real guilt or atleast shame and fear, is when the person shuts up, moves to a corner, holds their hands together, and look down to hide their face. (You've seen this on the Indian money mules you've confronted in front of their homes).
Obviously I'm not saying all of us Indians are liars or such, it's not true, but when you're dealing with scammers, these people are not the moral Indians you're dealing with anymore, it's the scum who have very predictable behaviour.
btw, Jaani's english is improving, he could do some legit hindi/english translation work.
Yeah, I don't really believe this guy is genuine. I think this is someone who never expected to be confronted face to face and is simply saying whatever he needs to get out of the situation. I hope I'm wrong, but only time will tell.
I agree, making the first move by hugging really ensured the guys weren't going to be too angry towards him. He used that as a tactic, whether it was conscious or not. It wasn't true remorse.
@@Saber0003 They did give him one way out, but a pushcart is hard work, and hard work is not attractive to scumbags like Monu who are used to easy money through e-begging.
I pray that he will see the way out, but I don't believe it yet. Personally having been a scumbag in the past and known a ton of people who are still scumbags, he doesn't seem like someone who will change. God help him.
Very true.
That guy's whole get-up screams "sadak chaap".
Then we find out about his brood of siblings. Those of us who know ....know it.
Trilogy Media guys are too naive against this monu & the types of him.
He got them good.
I wonder if Trilogy Media is suffering from Stockholm Syndrome after working so long with bangladeshy conmen operating out of genesis building in kolkata.
@@triptic6144 They did say that out of 10 scammers that have reformed, only monu betrayed them. I think they're naive both because they've never been burned before, and think this is just an exception, and because Americans rarely see the same kind of criminals we see here, over there criminals are usually very blatant and terrible actors.
You can see that with the westerners in this comment section too, they see the guy and aren't used to seeing such good acting on criminals and believe this is all genuine.
No doubt you are making the world a better place. It's a shame the world doesn't have more people like you.
i agree, its also a shame that people take advantage of their generosity.
This video is such an uncanny, although rough, representation of the Gospel actually and it is beautiful.
@@TheRedAirOn I agree.
It does have :P but this guys are top league.
Yea yes
Naa man, I'm from India and well aware of these lowlifes, he was crying because he knew he fucked up and is going to get confronted. But he came up with a new story on the spot. God dude, I hate this mf. He is going to scam you guys again and boast in front of his friends that he scammed you guys again. Anyways you guys are awesome.Stay blessed.
exactly. People are falling for his sob story but it's complete nonsense. He'll laugh about it later and talk smack about how he fooled everyone.
I agree I'm sorry I'm not so sure this kid has a good heart 😕
You nailed it!
💯 ryt !! 1000000 percent cry !! Don't believe in these kind of crap ppl !! Trilogy media sue him !!! He's a paid actor
Yeah those are clearly crocodile tears
This was a perfect conversation in the form of an intervention and this is why:
These are 2 things they DID NOT do:
1. Grant lenience through soft expectations
2. Belittle and demean him
These are things they DID do:
- Told him what he did wrong, how it affected them, and they expressed their frustration with him
- Explained that their trust was broken, and emphasized that it would need to be earned over the course of the next coming months
- Set boundaries and expectations for the future
- Explained to him that they know he's a good person and that he is capable of change
- They left with everyone feeling motivated to see him hold himself accountable
This was brilliant- A BRILLIANT demonstration of communication, mercy and tough love and intervention. Everything was talked about and put on the table. Everyone was civil and left understanding exactly what was either expected of themselves or exactly what they should expect from the other person involved.
I am so so so proud of this. Great job to everyone involved. Ashton, Art, Janni, Monu, and everyone behind the scenes. I really pray that Monu keeps his word, and that things will be brighter these coming months ahead.
Thank you so much Rebecca ❤️
I'm sorry, how many times does a scammer need to scam until you stop calling that person a good person? And what happened to actions have consequences? The problem with scammers is that many of them don't have consequences of their actions, so why would they stop?
@@makesnosense6304 Out of All the people they helped I'm Suprised that he would be the one to do something like this!!
@@TrilogyMedia while I applaud that you confronted him, he still had zero consequences. He actually gained more by doing this because he is now getting even more help. I understand he is a human being and has feelings, but people like him only know how to take and he has proven that repeatedly for the last year.
@@mansendwish Would been nice to see attempts from the scammers to see effort in giving back money to the people they stole from.
This confrontation was hard to watch, but it was so needed. I hope he was able to actually hear the things that were being said and change his life. And wow, Jaani helping to get him started on the new path is stunning! I pray Monu has all the success. This is an incredible video. Thank you, Ashton and Art, for being who you are. ❤️
Your husband is an incredible person!
Image 2 ex scammers team up with Trilogy (Jaani and Monu), double the fun
I watched and followed and helped since day 1 and remember this fondly. I’m just so glad Jaani is there and a TRUE part of the team out of all those who turned to the best.
So are you ✌️
❤
Personally, once someone lies about something, and shows that they continually lie. I can never trust them again. I don’t think a talk will change his ways. I hope he will, but those crocodile tears did not seem very genuine.
I just found you guys a few days ago and I just wanna say, I have a lot of love for you all. You are so kind to people who don't even deserve it. Thank you for the work that you do and the people's lively hoods you save ❤
You know I really hope I'm wrong here, but I think Monu had crocodile tears. If you look at how scammers work, by emotionally manipulating people, and then you look at the repeated behavior of using emotional blackmail to get money from your group, it puts that hug he gave in a very different light. I really hope I'm wrong, but I don't think even after all of that, that they are on the level or have learned anything.
You handled this way better than most people would have, including me. Cheers to you and your entire team.
You guys are absolutely right in how you handled this. This kid needs to learn to work hard to get his life together.
I really feel soo bad for Trilogy Media. You guys have the biggest hearts Ive ever seen. First I think he feels that people who live in the Usa have money to just throw around. The people who he begged from were probably people who didnt have the money to spend and probably are in a bad situation as well. People who have the least on this channel or in general have the biggest hearts and think about others. This guy was continuing to lie. He said he didnt speak English but clearly he could speak perfectly. I think it seemed natural to screw over people. I hate saying that but it just seemed like he was only saying what got him out of his situation. I would be willing to bet that if you guys asked for receipts or said we need to speak to his dad, you would find out that there were more lies. You guys have massive hearts and it hurts to see you and your subs being taken advantage of. I hope he changes but he doesnt have the greatest reputation at this point. Love you guys
Agreed, i got bad vibes from him and i never go against my gut
Exactly ppl here seems to have forgotten how many people have been effected by his wrongdoings. Everyone feels sorry for him but what about those whom he’s scammed?
They’re scumbags and deserve nothing.
I feel for those who have actually got their hard-earned money taken away by trash just like this scum bag.
Those are the ones I truly feel sorry for.
Those are the ones that should be helped!
I was wondering the whole time, how was he scamming people, if he didnt speak English? It was clearly a lie
I wouldn't trust him again either.
What is so interesting is that I considered giving a donation, but something told me not to. Little did I know it would turn out this way. I am glad to see you chose another chance in this situation. I can’t imagine being Monu and going through life in a developing nation. Obviously what he did was wrong, but I am glad you’ve given him the chance to make it right. The world needs more of that.
India is not third world. that's a shitty cold war era term you're using. even at the time, India would have been a first world country. these days, it's looking more like a second world country, as they begin to realign with the Russians (the new Soviets).
the term "third world" has been replaced with "the BRIC". BrazIl, Russia, India, China. developing nations is another handy word for it.
@@BikingWIthPanda hey there. I actually had no idea that using that term would be offensive, or that it was inaccurate. I did a quick search, and it does look like developing is the more common word to use.
I appreciate you making me aware of that. Take care.
@@BikingWIthPanda India used to have a licence to make MiG-25 jets during the Cold War, so in those old terms they were both a First & Second World country.
Ashton is so heartwarming and compassionate dude it's unbelievable. I trust you brother, I trust Art also. I know you 2 guys have a great heart! You're truly doing awesome work guys.
I’m very split on this. On one hand, Monu had been doing this for a whole year, despite MANY requests for him to stop, and it took him getting caught and confronted to make him stop. But on the other hand, as was pointed out, he’s a very young man who grew up in poverty. He has a lot to learn about right and wrong, and the value of trust. And since he grew up in poverty, he probably grew up on the “get money any way you can” mindset. Trilogy Media (and by extension, the squad) were probably the first people ever to show him generosity and help him, and he ended up taking advantage of it, without realizing how wrong it is. But there is one thing I do believe. I think it was a little too nice to buy him a topi (please tell me if I spelled that right) this early. You had just confronted him, and told him how he had no right to do what he did, and then get him set up with a business. That’s way too early. Let me throw a hypothetical at you. A child has been misbehaving like crazy for the past year; acting up every chance he could, never doing his homework, and maybe getting into fights. Despite telling him to stop many times, he keeps doing it. Then you finally have a confrontation with him, and give him a reality check. He realizes that the way he’s been acting was wrong, and he feels sorry (giving him the benefit of the doubt). Do you say, “good boy, now how about we go to Chuck E. Cheese?” No, you wait a while, giving him time to prove that he means it, and gain your trust back. THEN you take him to Chuck E. Cheese, as a reward for turning himself around. Am I saying Monu is a bad person? No. Am I saying he’s beyond redemption? No. I’m just saying you jumped the gun a bit by buying him a business this early. It feels like you’re rewarding him for his bad behavior. You should have given him a few months, to prove that he’s not just telling you what you want to hear; then offer to help him. I apologize for how long this was. Thank for reading it all the way through
I completely agree with this
You can´t compare this to a child misbehaving. We´re all over here in the so called rich west. Unless you yourself are in a position where you have absolutely nothing to loose, then you basically have no right judging someone who´s in that situation. It's a very thin line between having it 'all' and having absolutely nothing. So why the need to punish him any further? Does anyone think that would do any good? They told him that what he's done hurt them, was wrong. I do believe his tears were real. I also believe those tears ran much deeper than just this. And above it all I hope he makes his dreams come true, cause in the end that's what will make him want to be better, do better, and be the person he was meant to be.
You are absolutely right. I am surprised how naive could one get. Triology Media, I suppose was here to catch scammers and it was also doing quite well in that. But by getting scammed itself the team has come across to be no smarter than those poor nannies who get easily duped by the scammers. And think of it, they get swindeled the 2nd time. Haven't they heard, once a lier always a lier. Triology Media needs to do some self learning and training on human/criminal psychology. I am sure the channel will not come up with a sequal of Monu's story. That guy will never change. Don't we know people who can laugh and then break down into sobs with little time lapse between the two extreme emotional displays.
@@Jay-ob9ty I don’t agree with the “once a liar, always a liar” mentality. I even said that I don’t think he’s beyond redemption. I’m just saying they should have given him time to prove himself before buying him a business
Just to let you know it's "Tapri" and not Topi 😂😅. Topi means Cap/Hat 🧢 😅. Btw i have just started watching Trilogy Media contents and i love Zlatan Ibrahimovic (ART) a lot!!💯💯🥳
Please add a follow up video of how's he's doing after giving him a push cart. Thank you and please continue the good fight! All the best Trilogy Media. 🙂
I respect you guys even more with how well you handled this. I’m not sure if you guys are fathers or not, but if you are, I know you are fantastic at it. Truly role models
Dude those are crocodile tears. He was taking time to be able to think about a made up story. He was taking time to improvise. He thought that your were gonna get his a$$ beaten up. Friggin bogus a$$ scammer has no shame. As a resident of India if I were there, I would've gone crazy the moment he cried bro. Like wtf was he trynna do? 🤬
It's very easy for someone living in a developed country feel that he's na evil but trust me... He was greedy buy hebutilised every opportunity possible to get whatever he can to not only treat himself but also pay off his dads debt.. He also bought fuckung bags of lemons to sell on street..I know what he did was wrong and seems suspicious but believe me deep down he's a good man.. Buy poverty fucked him over.. You need to be in his shoes to understand him better..
Yeah your right bro that's straight up crocodile tears 🚩
Never Trust Indian scammers!!
He sounded genuine
You guys are amazing. This situation could not have been handled any better. So much respect to the entire Tilogy Media team.
He is only sorry because he got caught. You can clearly see it. I am not against giving anybody a second chance (which he deserves) but pretty sure in a couple of weeks or months he will be back with his usual trick.
People who turned from bad into good is not a joke kindness always win,truly love team trilogy......❤❤❤❤
I’m a little late to the party, but just wanted to let you know how much I adore you guys for everything you do: your humor, your charity, your hard work and above all your kindness. 💖
Thanks i love you too loool pretty girl
New to the channel after watching your recent collab with mark and Jim, and I just want to say the amount of compassion you guys showed here towards this young man, who's made some stupid mistakes, is amazing. Your positivity is really inspiring and I really hope your kindness isn't taken advantage of again. Good luck to Monu and I hope he's finally on the right path.
This is how you change the world. One act of kindness at a time.
Nah. They are chumps here. Im close to unsubbing
@WeeSmilesScotland, I agree wholeheartedly! Perhaps TrilogyMedia’s kindness will help Monu change the error of his ways and learn to build trust and not screw up again! I don’t know of anyone that was not without fault with the exception of Christ! The professionalism of the team, the kindness shown were heartfelt. Most people would’ve trashed him, but he’s been given a chance to turn his life around! I hope he takes it!💙
@@ElanaVital83 haha Buh bye don't let the door hit you the way out
@@ElanaVital83 you have no hope for change in people. Change doesn’t happen overnight!! They told him he has to prove himself before anything.
@@ginnywilliams1114 you’re so right. We’ve all made plenty of mistakes and probably the same ones. It’s so many people in the comments that has thrown Monu away but you just don’t know how people can really change. Monu can be the one that pay it forward and get others out of the scamming world. An open heart and positive mindset gets you very far in life.
I’ve never had someone talk to me so calmly while being mad before it’s impressive
I love the good cop bad cop thing you guys have going balances out great
Lol. They got scammed. And still getting scammed.
This all brought tears to my eyes. You guys were so forgiving. We all deserve second chances
You got fooled. They are good at emotional manipulation.
@@Blake4014 They show some compassion. There not heartless. Im sure some off it is manipulating.
Your crazy, he's a good actor . That's all
There are demonic people out there. Not like these scammers but truly demonic people out there. Not many people know because most won’t have to deal with them. But if you do deal with them, this is your warning. Don’t even give them a chance or leverage. Of these people I’ll tell you one story. This girl married this guy and might even have loved him at one point in time but tried to collect on life insurance by having her brother m()rder her husband at his house while he was watching kids(his niece and n nephews). He was shot in the head and survived but from the graces of god he only had a cracked skull and the kids didn’t get physically hurt.,she left him when he was in the hospital.
You know
This talk will definitely be a wake-up call to him. I hope he realizes how he needs to take the initiative on things he wants to do. I know someone who lives in Kolkata that would be a prime target for scam call center recruiters. Instead, he is choosing to utilize his skills to tutor students all over the world in math, english, and all sorts of subjects. His source of income is from a job where he is helping people and is also able to live a comfortable life. I hope Monu looks into his abilities and skills and utilizes that for the greater good rather than scamming. And if he doesn't have any skills, he should take the initiative to form some.
Well, at this point, if he doesn't get his act together and keeps doing what he's been doing, he can't ask for another chance and say you didn't give him a fair shot. You probably gave him more of a fair shot than he deserved, so it's up to him now what he's going to do with it.
I don't think he even deserved this chance. He is a Pathetic excuse of life.
@@DefiantComrade Well, what he does next will prove or disprove that
he had a punchable face and hair that just pretty much tells you that “yo ima scam you and young dumb and ready to cum” so how they handled him was very professional lol
Thanks for changing people's life for good... I have never donated anyone on TH-cam yet but you guys really deserve this. I know it's very small amount but at this moment this is what I can do. I know the work you guys are doing requires fund and I will encourage everyone capable enough to donate so that you can change for lives... BTW I am from India, Jharkhand and if you need any help from me please let me know... I am also full time web developer with Java as a backend so you can catch me up for any projects... Or I can be a content writer for you... Being poor I can only provide this much of help🙈... Again saying Tqsm for you amazing work❤️
Salute to your big heart my brother! Hats off to you. Love from Pakistan. Stay blessed.

@@spacedirt1 haha
@@spacedirt1 better than you by the looks of it, at least he did something he feels for, you on the other hand are only here to look down on people and enjoy a shitshow
This was hard to watch, but I really hope he will learn from this and get his life on track because he's better than this. Thank you Ashton, Art and Janni for what you do. Also please be safe I worry about your safety sometimes. ♥️♥️
Ashton seems like a good hugger. You can tell Monu felt warmth from his hugs
Im quite surprised you got scammed multiple times and were still getting mugged off and lied to while you were there in the room. If he can lie to your face after you've travelled across the world to see him he can't be trusted and will stab you in the back again for sure.
POV: *Your parents discipling your sibling in the other room and you are peeping:*
I genuinely feel bad for Monu, you guys handled this so well, In my opinion I think he did genuinely feel bad for it. I'm not saying what he did was ok, but some people have to go to bad lengths to survive.
All fake, crocodile tears. Just self preservation. He used them for attention and tried to exploit them at every turn. Of course he will whimper and cry when confronted. There should be old school consequences. Either pay the reparations, or pay another way. Either way, they shouldn’t have spent more than 30 sec talking to this fool. Especially if they took the time and $ to travel all the way to him. And set him up in a secluded private room. Perfect opportunity wasted.
@@PsychotropicThunder fully agree there, pay up every cent he scammed, either with money or flesh
I've literally slept on a bench when I was 17 because I didn't have any money, did that for 3 months, surviving on food from soup kitchens and what money I could get from panhandling
I never scammed anyone, I didn't steal anything, and I didn't rob anyone
Doesn't matter how poor you are, there are always ways to get shit done
@@mwbgaming28yea the difference is he literally has to provide for his whole family, and pay off debtors, and he lives in one of the worst locations in the world. there is no soup kitchens in india, and there is nobody to give a beggar any money
@@tr1stonn and you think that justifies scamming people?
Scam victims have literally killed themselves after losing everything to those parasites
No sympathy
I believe you have just made a child into a man on this day, thank you so much for giving him another chance
I don't still trust him. Change is hard. Especially if you surround yourself with losers you gonna end up a loser that's y I don't have faith in that boy. I am from India and have seen people in even worse situations but honest. You can't always blame your hardships for your behavior
I remember during the time he was messaging squad members, he sent me a friend request, but he never messaged me. Right away I declined the invite as I seen what was going on. I hope Manue does better himself. And Jaani is still awesome!
❤
When you guys came out to confront him, it definitely had "I'm Chris Hansen" vibes (complete with "please have a seat").
Great video as always you guys. Loving these videos from India. Hope to see more!
Fr
Discovered you guys through scammer payback. Watch you guys track down a money mule and have been hooked ever since. You guys handled this whole situation amazingly. The balance between you both works extremely well.
More and more TrilogyMedia please please, please!!! Love watching your show!! please don't go away!
As an Indian, I'm furious at the professional setup and the employment system here, that lead to situations like this one here. I'm ashamed. Come on, man. We're way better than this! Especially, with a rich culture, education and talent!
It is pretty sad
Rich culture and education? I don't see it in real life.
@@FestivaLagoon This speaks volumes about your exposure and the educational system's reach. Good luck, man.
@@dinhorox199 please elaborate. Especially, how does it speaks volumes about educational system's reach?
@@FestivaLagoon You'll figure out eventually. *Fingers crossed*
I don’t think he’s being genuine. Being genuine would have been to say my job taught me how to scam and when I saw vulnerabilities in your community, I applied those scam skills. He seems well groomed, that doesn’t scream a scam away from homeless to me.
Hard not to like Art ..... as Ashton said "well said" to what Art said about not caring about an apology to him & he just cares about the guy apologizing to "the people who built me" ....
Life made him humble. So happy for him (& Ashton) that after working hard his whole life this finally took off. Helps get him paid/does good things for vunerable people/& he gets to be passionate about his work..... win/win/win.....
I actually hope hes kept his word. at the age of 21, having someone come up to me and be like 'hey, ill pretty much buy you a business' would be amazing
The guy went from scammer to actor 0 to a 100 real quick! LMAO
Watching vids like this REALLY helps me. It not only restores a little faith in humanity, but also gives me hope for my future. I'm someone who has F'd up over and over and over again. The only thing I have left is hope and the knowledge that it's never too late to continually do the next right/best thing; no excuses. ❤ love you all. This one made me cry rivers..
I have very mixed feelings about this. Did I do stupid shit at the age of 21? Absolutely! Did my family and friends forgive me more times then they should have? Yep! My family and friends were more than patient with me, however I am still a big preacher of these two phrases: "Actions speak louder than words" and "Past behavior dictates future behavior" nowadays. While I was unaware of Monu's actions over the past year and was curious to see what had become of him, I am severely disappointed to see this. Monu has a long and hard hill to climb and he may never gain your full trust back IF he is actually honest in his apologies. I can see a lot of my 21 year old self in him, not the scamming or the dance moves (man I wish I had a percentage of those moves at that age), so it would make me a hypocrite to condemn him. All I can do is wish him the best of luck with his business and that long hard climb to redemption.
You know what you’re absolutely correct I’ve been sober 6 years but I have done my share of bad. You definitely made me look at this with a different perspective
Indians watching this know that Monu has good acting skills
He should be rewarded for his acting skills.
I’m not even an Indian, I’m American and I can see how full of $h*t he is..
I don’t understand how these guys can’t see how big of a liar he is and it irritates me that they continue to help this piece of garbage..
He’s scamming them after them knowing he’s a scammer and they don’t even see it..
They’re supposed to be the guys that are really good at exposing scammers so it’s irritating to see this..
I hope karma destroys that scamming piece of living $h*t.
This is his last chance to prove himself..let’s wait and see..😅
Guys please give Monu an academy award for best actor. My goodness.
Omg I am so sorry I missed this live but then again I’m glad I did because tears were flowing down my face the whole time I was watching. You guys are extremely amazing I am just lost for words. Thank you guys for being so awesome ❤
“If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.”
I generally avoid to comment on any of the video But this video is really heart touching and shows how calm and good people still exist in this world . As Indian I really appreciate what you have done with Monu. Meanwhile, This also shows how our country's unemployment is increasing day by day which leads youngster to indulge the job like scammer and if you have to eliminate these kind of jobs we have understand the root cause of this and according to my pov Indian Government is responsible for this ..
So I just wanna add that in order to create greater impact you have to talk to our government and draw some conclusions to eliminate all these scammer
Scammers never think they will see who they have scammed face to face. And I think Monu was crying, not because of happiness but because he KNEW why they came. To confront him. He knew he was busted. As others had said "He's only sorry cause he got caught" is definitely right. I hope Monu will better himself and do the right thing. I'd like to see him EARN the trust back. People CAN change and I think Monu can if he really wants to.
You guys are awesome!!! And genuinely compassionate. But at the same time you did the right thing by confronting.
Unfortunately there are many many people like this in India who like free money, which comes without much work. They don’t like to work.
I hope he learns, but people like him seldom change.
He's still below age 25 so this way of life is not completely hard wired in him. Below age 25 there is actually still hope. Above age 25 true change is only possible with lots of trauma.
I suport you Trilogy Media in your choice of forgiveness and trying to work with him...God bless the Trilogy Media team and God bless the squad..
You have shown us your that it is honourable to forgive. Everyone makes mistakes. He didn't go back to the scam centre job. Thank you guys for giving him hope which he so badly needs. People who are desperate and have no hope often make poor decisions. That doesn't make them a bad person. Thank you for being a role model for and for everyone else as well.
I think giving Monu this final chance is a good call. An incredibly generous gift from Jaani, and I hope Monu really makes the most of it and pulls together a good honest business.
I feel his pain and Lord knows I did some shit. I would not be where I am today without making mistakes along the way., and especially being at that age. He’s a good kid, and just got derailed. Trilogy Media, you guys are amazing humans!!!!!’
Well said
He is terrible!
Don't trust that kid. Scamming is their customary law. He's emotionally blackmailing y'all. 🙏
Well done for helping Monu, guys. This was beautiful to see, how you decided to go beyond judgement and break the virtual barrier to actually touch this young man's life.
People will have all sorts of opinions based on this utopia that a person has only one chance to be good, ignoring the fact that life is made of cycles. Some are good, others are horrible and sometimes we're stuck. And it's very hard to break through, especially when you're as young as Monu, and have life that is surrounded with hardships. Hardships that most of these commenters will never understand, and therefor pretend to be on some high moral platform. How easy it is to pass judgement, and how uncommon it is to truly extend empathy and compassion. Even when trust is broken. Even when there's a chance it will be broken again.
I can't believe someone will have this deep understanding of situation without visiting the country .kudos to you
Well said ! @AnaMindTheCorner
What Art said really hit home with me ‘if someone wants a job, they find one’ - I’ve bounced around a few jobs but I always kept that same mentality, if I wanted a job I was going to get one. Im not sure if I find Monu genuine but I hope I’m wrong. Work hard and it’ll all pay off in the end. Keep up the great work guys!
Excellent way to handle this. I am hoping that he can learn that work and respect beats the scamming community has taught him.
This was wholesome and its so good to see good people like yourselves being generous enough give someone a 2nd or even 3rd chance! You just gained a subscriber for sure :)
Absolutely amazing, brings me to tears.
I am sure guys like you restore faith in humanity. God bless.
Respect
I absolutely admire you guys! I don’t trust a guy who did what he did and started crying the same moment he saw you.
The thing I don't understand is that you guys asked him multiple times to stop he said he would why wouldn't he is not trust worthy
I am disappointed in what monu did, but i aggree with the phrase art said "actions speak louder than words". So if he can follow through on this small cart business thanks to Janni stepping up like a BOSS, i believe he can get some HONEST work going for him. Trust is EARNED and NOT GIVEN.
I sadly have to say you guys well and truly allowed your heart to rule your head on this one.
Consider yourselves having been well and truly played!
I can’t count how many times I screwed up when I was younger, sometimes you don’t realize how something so small could be a huge opportunity. I hope he can earn it this time, and those guys on the street are awesome I watched them take an old battery and remanufacture a new one out of it! I wish everyone the best!
I love the fact you guys were not that hard on him but allow him to understand the point where u getting .also never let ur guards down i felt a little edgy for you all this was epic
What I think all of you forget is that he’s raised an environment where deceit mistrust and scamming is a prevalent part of life. To break that cycle is insanely difficult. You can see the kid has a good heart and is trying to break the mold, but it is not an easy task, especially when you’re surrounded by it on a daily basis.
BS..
@@mrwoody1413 environment plays a big factor in a persons actions and thoughts. Surround yourself by scammers and you’ll end up doing the same. He got addicted to the easy money that comes with scamming someone emotionally/physically. Kind of like once a drug dealer always a drug dealer. Once you get used to the easy money there’s no going back lol
Yup agreed. He’s still so young and doesn’t know really anything else. It’s easy tk sit back in America and from a privileged perspective say he can do better but it’s the same kind of thinking on why it’s hard for people to get out of the hood or young kids in poor neighborhoods trying to stay out of gangs which is how they get conned into or not given much choice. It’s a very common way of life there and it’s all he’s surrounded by it takes a while to understand and learn.
you don't know what you're talking about. This slimeball is corrupt to the core, and will not stop emotionally manipulating people and scamming.
I do remember getting a Instagram request from monu but intuition told me not to accept so I didn't
Yea me 2
Thank you for extending such human kindness. I hope that he takes advantage of the the gift you have given him. This video moved me to tears. I hope that he is not too broken to change and that you never give up on the possibility that people can change ❤️ much love to you all ❤️
Man ,he is still scamming people ..He is scamming emotionally..
I am Indian ..
I also have bank loan and no job .
I accidentally started working in a investment scam company and I left the job within 1 month ..
It is a tough situation. I am glad you did this. Earning back broken trust is very difficult, sometimes impossible for some. As you guys told him, you do what you have to in order to support your family. I have worked many jobs I didn't like to keep a roof over our head. Part of that is maturity and self respect. When I was his age I was in the military. I also became very addicted to gambling and ended up not taking care of bills. I screwed up a lot and paid the price for it. I now chalk it up to being young and dumb. Taking advantage of a gift horse can be one of those missteps.
I hope he takes away with him this hard lesson, but he is still very young and dumb decisions is sometimes part of the road to adulthood.
Good luck
This is why you never trust Indians or feel bad for them because they take advantage of that. This goes wrong especially for people with big heart and feel bad easily for people because people like him take advantage of that .
That was so powerful. So many emotions I felt that I’m sure did not even compare to how you all felt. Trilogy, Jaani, Squad… just wow. My heart is always filled when seeing what you do and the respect you have for every human. Bless you all 💖
So emotional. I could feel everyone in the room. Art and Ash you are loved and Janni what a beautiful soul you are. Monu good things are coming to you because you are a good man. I wish happiness for you and your family. 💜💚💙LOVE PEACE & POSITIVITY 💙💚💜
💙💚💛💜!!!!!!
Wonder how much that haircut costed him
And the posh hotel room.
No matter how controversial this video might have been, this video was really great. Thank you Ashton, and Art and everyone in Trilogy Media. I have known throughout my entire lifetime that we are all not perfect human beings. There have been times in our lives in which we have made decisions that were not positive, and there have been times in our lives in which the decisions that we have made have been positive. Sometimes we treat people badly without even knowing why we are treating them badly. Everyone has a unique story to tell, and you never know when you might come across someone who has had a similar story or has lived a similar life as yourself. I have learned to give people chances when I feel that they deserve those chances in life, in fact I think that millions of people deserve second chances. Jaani is awesome for what he has done for Monu, and when I have a friend who has been in a much worse situation as myself, I would reach out to them and give them a helping hand. It is what friends do, we help each other, we strengthen each other, and in life, we understand our world with each other, stronger, each day.
Trilogy media has very big hearts for working with strangers that are scammers. It takes a lot to do what you guys do and it takes a special kind of person to do what you guys do for people.I love watching you both. Keep up the good work.
I like this partnership I see between you two, Ashton is the voice of reason while Art gives the "I better listen to this guy or he will rip my head off feel", while the video itself was difficult to watch due to Monu already knowing he messed up, and seeing someone cry automatically makes me want to cry as well, You guys handled this situation so well and so mature and I think I learned a little bit about how to handle life situations like this in the future just by watching this video.
You guys are doing a great job !! I almost got scammed years ago (1999) I love people from all over the world, but because of the scammers from India/Africa/China, I am a lot more cautious when I hear their voice on the phone (Honest)
That sweet baby.... he just needs proper direction. This was the first video that made me cry.. like not tear up.. cry cry. Lol...i see this was posted a year ago n I'm so hoping this went well going forward.
Squad is family hun we r all family hugs to you hun hopefully you can learn and be able to enjoy life 💖
Its so nice to see genuinely good people like you showing such kindness to strangers like this...
Yeah, I can tell he is not listening with his heart. He is annoyed that he is being confronted but he doesn't think he did wrong. I can see it in his actions, and his eyes. I honestly hope he will realize sooner rather than later that no one owes him anything. Its his mindset.
Once a crook always a crook my opinion some people will never change out of a million maybe you can help one if you lucky . But we'll done guys for the work you guys do greetings from South Africa 🇵🇹 ... when a man can't look in your eyes when talking to you can't trust him
I swear you 2 are a godsend to this world. I will send my best wishes to him and will look forward to seeing his progress he makes. Honestly i was upset but now i am reconciled with this situation. You two like i said will make this world a much better place to live in and i am glad that we have you guys in this world to help make it a better place.
Now all we need is Michael Jackson 💓💓
Well I’ve watched the whole video. I think he was crying because he probably thought something was gonna happen to him and he was scared… not because he was happy or sorry … did I believe his tears .. No. He just likes to scam people because that’s how some people are. And Jaani was so nice to buy him that store cart.. thank you Jaani. I Hope that this young man changes for the better. Some people do deserve chances and some people don’t. I hope the best for him.
Such a touching moment guys. I think he is going to do right this time
He seems like a kid with a rough life. Not an excuse but I think he's gonna get so much shit for this and be even more depressed after this video released.
I really hope he Works hard and fufils his promise.
Love the energy these guys have. I still don't trust the guy though. Wasn't sincere enough for me bc I know he was scared when he saw them so idk if he was being honest after so many lies and scams
Please let us know how he does. It seemed like he's never had people believe in him before. So it went to his head that he was able to help his family thanks to you all. Please continue to do all the good you are doing! Sending prayers for you all to stay safe!
You guys are so understanding! The way you handled the situation was like no other.
When Monu came into hotel room he pretended to cry no actual tears!
What a horrible life that guy has, and them poor dogs at the end crying in the background, everyone is treated bad there, so some choose to rip off people to make life better😢 ❤ you Trilogy guys were nice to him but I can't see him changing, he will always be hustling🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I hope Manu changes his life, his body language is a bit of a worry. I am proud of you all for the job you are doing.
U guys are perfect 👍 wow he’s so kind gentle and art is lil scary but both r so kind and gentle
