Scammer is expecting $40,000 in cash to be delivered, but we show up instead and confront him with police. Why is this scammer expecting $40k in cash? And who the hell would fall for this? Well unfortunately, lots of people. The FTC reports almost 6 billion dollars was stolen from Americans in 2021 alone, which is up 70% from the previous year. The scammer we’re chasing today runs the refund scam. Heavily targeting the elderly, the refund scam is particularly vile.

you guys need help iam in mn let me know i dont work till spring
@@mikewilson7132 That’s what I’ve been trying to tell them this whole time!
No solicitors in Britain and Ireland mean: No Lawyers 🙂
Hi trilogy media great people plus youtube
Great video guys! Hopefully the police will be able to ID the mule from Art's glasses cam and perhaps even had the detectives do some work on the address for a while! Great victim save!
Dispatch lady needs to be charged with purposely hanging up on a 911 call.
totally unprofessional
Last time I called 911, I caught a thief in the act of stealing my Suburban and I had him physically detained. I told them to send police NOW, because I had the guy there on the ground. The dispatcher instead decided to ask me if the guy was wearing a uniform, if he was in a tow truck, if I had missed any payments (on a 1999 Suburban in 2023). The guy got away and hopped in the car with his accomplice, and the police never even showed up. I wasn’t able to get a clear picture of the license plate because I was on the phone with the dispatcher and running after the car, so it was blurry. It was incredibly unprofessional! When someone calls 911 and asks you to send police, dispatch first, then ask questions!
Awful dispatch lady hanging up like that disgraceful
Press charges to the dispatcher. What a moron
True!! Imagine a life and death situation, seconds from something happening to you, you call 911 and they fcking hang up, thanks police I guess now i'm dead?????!!!
*Virtual high 5!!* Well done guys. So happy for Patricia.
It’s a huge win for the whole scambaiting community! 👊😊
Let’s talk soon
Cheers
You do amazing work Jim. Much love!
@@TrilogyMedia speaking of huge win, how does one get into being a scam baiter? I live in Canada and i get these a**holes calling me every day with the Air Duct scam, my Social Insurance Number scams, Microsoft, Amazon, etc. I get these calls 3 times a day or more and all i do with mess with them and waste their time. I would like to actually help take these bastards down.
Hello there Jim my friend 👋🏽I loved that patreon video it was awesome as always 😘
What you all do as scambaiters is a life saving service! Trilogy,jim,scammer payback,pleasent green,modder paul,cj scams,deyo,karl rock and many others should be used around the world by goverments to protect people from the evil that is scamming
these monsters have no humanity at all. steal money from innocent, old people is purely not human. thanks for your great work. I just discovered you with this video. It was just great for this lady
Have you ever heard od banks !
@@madkiss8017 nope. What’s that?
Wow, this video was a roller-coaster of emotions. There were laughs, there was excitement, there was anger.. i was almost raging at the police dispatch and the scammers' manipulation of Patricia.
By the end, i was in tears with how real this whole scenario is. I've seen many of these videos before, but nothing quite hit home like this one. You can see clearly how the entire scam works and why it is people fall for it.
To finally see one of these conclude with the help of the police is actually the cherry on top. The fact they might now take interest in your channel or anyone from the state/federal side for that matter. Means we are really starting to see the ball get rolling cracking down on this fraud..
You guys are hero's, keep up the good work. You got my sub and a new fan. ❤️
I am really proud of you all for everything you are all doing to save people. 💜
Thank you, guys, for being there at the right time for Patricia. If it wasn't for you all of her money would have been gone. She really did have someone watching out for her that day. I hope you all can stay in touch she's one sweet lady!
Thank you for helping this poor woman.
This episode actually brought me to tears. No joke. You guys are absolutely amazing and I wish we had thousands more just like you guys. Thank you for being there and saving her like that. I would give anything to do what you guys are doing. These scumbag scammers don't want to ever known what would happen if I got my hands on them. Never stop doing what you are doing. Not until there's no other way they can pull off these awful scams. Bless you guys so much!
Wow you too…
Me, too!
Me, too!
I cried with joy at that woman's victory through you guys. What a very real blessing to these victims you are. Thank you so much.
that was wild. It would be interesting to see if the police keep tabs on these parasites
Ashton, sorry i forgot your partnes name. You guys are freacking AMAZING. What you did for that sweet ole lady left me speechless. You ruined that low life's idea of gaining easy money from a vulnerable mother and grandma to someone. God bless you 🙏.
A big hug from Florida. I'm so happy for Patricia, and I'm so happy i found you. I can't stress enough how proud i am of you both, and the camera man. Hats off to all 3 of you..👍🫶👏
Wow wow wow. You guys, kiboga and Scammer Payback absolutely rock this planet. Bless you for caring so much about the victims of these horrible scammers. You guys have a special place in Heaven for all the greatness you are doing. God bless you!
@@sonnyday6210 Maybe not in person, but he has stopped many by getting bank accounts seized.
You forgot the masked crusader, Jim Browning
This was like watching a suspense movie the whole time. I was keeping my fingers crossed that Patricia’s money doesn’t get taken. Great work guys! And I just subbed!
I have anxiety issues as it is....I can barely sit still.😥
Awesome, Greatly appreciated hunting down these crooks of Scammers , .God Bless you Sir Aston , Sir Art..
Great job guys!! Patricia, Im sorry you got scammed and am SO happy the guys were able to get your money back to you! Scammers- you suck!
So happy Patricia is getting her money back! I'm sure she scared at first and thank God you guys just happened to be there to save her hard earned money from being stolen from her. Patricia if you read this we all love you ❤❤❤
I dunno,,, Patricia sounds like she didn’t send money then figured out that she could make a quick buck off of it… She wouldn’t give them the amount of money it was for a reason.
@@Jimbo0341usmc wouldn't that be a plot twist 🤣
Good morning guys family doing today guess everyone is doing great thank you for your efforts keep it on
What a ride you guys took me on with this video! It was intense but with the perfect ending! You guys are truly guardian angels! ❤
Man, this was so awesome!! Keep up the great work!
good job guys, congratulations from Italy🔝
"911, Karen speaking..."
I love Art and how passionate he is.... I feel like having him confront the criminals is perfect... But when its time to talk to cops and authorities I really feel like he should leave most the talking to Ashton. Art can come off as overbearing due to his emotional state.
Pure and simple….you guys are incredible! We need more people like you guys!
Nice job!!👍👍
He doesn't even look like a delivery guy and delivery ppl don't knock that many times. They don't care that much, they may do a 3/4 tap, 2 times at the most, then there gone. So I would have known and would have thought he was a cop or something....😂🤷🏾♂️
You know what drives me entirely nuts about Ashton amd Art is that they are both so anxious to be the one to talk that they constantly are cutting each other off or trying to the say the same thing to the person when the other is talking and try to take over the conversation. Especially over the phone, Ashton is trying explain stuff and Art is just over there dropping lines confusing the shit out of the person on the other end of the line….Let each other talk! You both can have your say so, you dont have to talk at the same damn time constantly, LOL!
Yeah they definitely hurt themselves with that. Also, they are not very slick in their tactics on trying to physically catch someone. But it is what it is. They get excited, as we all would and unfortunately it hurts them. But their still doing good and that's all that matters.
And leave out all the F-bombs!! I had my elderly mom watch this but she doesn’t think these guys are very credible with all the crude language.
You guys doing awesome job. I'm very happy to know there is people out there that still care about others. God bless and don't get scammed.
I’m a UPS driver. I’ve come across money mules a few times. Because of your videos as well as Jim Browning,Scam Baiter and Kitboga I was able to make sure the mules never get the money. Thank you for making me aware.
Does UPS have a program to educate drivers to spot these types of scams?
@@TheRussellStover Brother does FedEx and they don't at the least.
That's awesome! Thank you for your service!
How does that work? Do you just report that the package was lost or too damaged to deliver or something?
I know my route and people very well. Most occasions I give the package to Loss Prevention and they contact the shipper. One occasion i had a next day air package for an apartment building where the mule was shipping to an empty apartment. I would pull up and he would get out of his car and receive the package. I told the cops what was happening so they set up a sting operation and arrest the guy. It was his 8th arrest for money muling.
Just so y'all are aware, it's entirely possible that the money mule addresses have a "lookout". Someone camped out in an opposing room who keeps an eye out for deliveries. Gotta be careful!
Exactly
God bless and FOREVER keep you within His grace and protection you are doing a marvelous job these vicious scammers do not realize the impact that this have on other peoples lives who have worked all their lives and this is their life saving I know they don’t care but one day let me say this, and I wish they would read this comment if no other there will be a day of reckoning for all of you who scam and take what you have not earned
P.S. my husband and I was scammed out of 40,000+ and the person that did it got up and left and was not able to be found but I rest in the comfort of knowing that Gal:6:7 is still in effect u get by for a while but u WILL NOT GET AWAY! Ur real pay day will come.
That 911 operator is something else. This is why these scammers get away with the crap they do.
Yes the 911 operater was very judgmental and her communication skills were unprofessional. Not fit for her job. Evaluation based on how she handled the call, she sounded unqualified and is in dire need of urgent training.
They were a little blunt (alright, VERY blunt,) but these kinds of calls are super fishy, surely you understand that. The fact that they sent officers despite being a bitch more than made up for it, imho. From the sounds of it, they didn't believe what was being said, but treated the situation seriously enough to dispatch the police. Shit happens, and fortunately the woman who sent the package gets her money back in part because despite not believing the situation, the dispatcher sent cops to the scene.
@@moonbyul873 you're right , but at the same time they should send dispatch immediately regardless of the situation. That woman is extremely unprofessional on how she escalated the entire scenario because she's on a power trip 🤦♂️
@@neatt5160 You won't get an argument from me. Fortunately even if they didn't seem to take the situation seriously at least they acted on it. A lot of times people won't and that's how things like school shootings happen. Best to always take threats/calls seriously. Better to act on it and waste your time than to let it slide and it ends up being an actual issue.
@@moonbyul873 I was agreeing with you , I wasn't trying to start an argument lmao
72yo retired man. Happened to me. I cried just now. God bless you guys. Sincerely appreciate your work. Some people are heartless, but you are saviors. I love you guys
Sorry that happened to you, sir. I wasn’t aware of the many methods scammers use, so these videos are very informative. I nearly got tricked in my 20’s, these people are crafty. Consider getting your devices fully reset if you haven’t done so. Don’t click on random email/message links, that’s how they install tracking software.
((HUGS)) sorry that this happened to you
So sorry that happened to you! It makes me so mad when ppl scam ppl but it really p*sses me off so much when they target the elderly, and of course the disabled. Nobody deserves to get scammed, but the elderly and disabled can't jump up and do a side job or work overtime to make up for it. Leave our people alone!
@@vinlago there has to be a flaw for them to take advantage of, if there wasn't they wouldn't be able to do it. It's really unfortunate and it sucks that they feel more entitled to your money than you do. It's really a sad thing to be in a situation like that. The thing is, if you reach out, you can get help. I've had to reach out to strangers before and they helped me get through things. If you're that bad off you can ask for help, most likely they'll keep helping you anyway.
@@theoriginal7264 the only reason I've survived this long was by reaching out to strangers. Not anything to do with my account being hacked or losing my email but because I lost my disability case (still fighting 10 years on) and had to sell everything or lose my house.
In the midst of selling & auctioning off my life I reached out to the usual entities. This is how it usually went...
Ask family, they suggest you ask government. Ask government, they suggest you ask friends. Ask friends, they suggest you ask church. Ask church, they suggest you ask... family. Round and round it goes. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
In the end it was strangers who helped me out. They actually reached out to me because they noticed something was off. They asked where I was moving & I had no answer because I was going to live in my car. They offered to let me park on their land and stay in a pickup bed camper. I accepted. They still help me to this day although we've become good friends now.
From my experience this is why many folks won't reach out when they find themselves in the midst of these financial sharks. Either shame or the understanding that more often than not they will be met with a brick wall of "no". Especially with family due to the emotions involved.
It’s crazy how she trusts the scammer wholeheartedly but doesn’t trust the guy trying to help her out. This is what these scammers do to these people.
It make me cry she was scared and helpless didn't know who is who
That's how badly they manipulate people and get into their heads.
probably dementia in an early stage, she seemed easily confused
Social engineering is scary
Clearly the scammers took away he trust
That operator should be fired.
Typical woman on her period
I can't believe so many police officers don't know how these scams work. They really need to start training them to help stop these scammers!!
Exactly what I was thinking!
They cant do anything because they’re from another country
@@Seis_seis69 but in that case its clearly fraudulent activity in local state.
That cases investigate by very separate part of police (FBI, should i say). Sadly, but most peoples just does not know at all how scams working. And time by time its just made a harder and harder to explain and get that.
P.S. English not my native language, so if I'm wrong - sorry. Hope you can understand me :) Because, if i try to say anything in my native language - you can't understand me, even by using Google Translate, i suppose
They need retraining in a LOT of things; that was disgusting to watch
I saw one with an FBI agent 15 years on the job got scammed for $45000, so it proves they are very smart at these scams. No one is safe.
Thank you for trying to help this woman. Some guy in Jamaica scammed my mother out of so much money she was sending to him we had to sell her home to get her out of debt. She moved in with my sister . I contacted the attorney general in Missouri and never got a response. She had no food in the house and was about to have her utilities turned off. I hope you catch all of these scum bags
I'm really sorry to hear. I am willing to help you too. I reside in the country. Just let me know.
I’m sorry about that, I hope your family got the money.
Wow
@@nicholaslandolina ?
She fell inlove with him?
I hope that 911 operator is fired. That is not appropriate behavior in an emergency. As for you guys, you’re awesome and saved so many people and who knows how many lives.
I agree she was so rude
why are police women so mean dude
@@vsah8521 that was a 911 call operator not a police officer
@@Beorno both women job thingy mbobers are mean.
Agreed, the 911 operator was totally unprofessional and shouldn't have hung up on a civilian reporting a crime period.
Those police officers handled it like absolute legends
Nice to see them actually listen to something so nuanced
Minus the one on the phone...
@@beardedbard6308 She's just an operator, not an officer.
Lol only because it was handed to them on a plate wrapped in gold they did all the work.
That guy in driver side of suburban is a douche
The dispatcher should be reprimanded, and sent back for some training.
Beautiful thing getting that elderly womans money back to her.
Naaa that daft cow deserved to be scammed. More money than sense. This daft cow even took a call from the scammer while they were talking to her and believed them?!!
That dispatcher made my blood boil. How little every one of those officers knew about this type of thing blew my mind. You guys are literally out there making a difference.
You would think Police nowadays would be more clued up.
@@queenbee2371 Really? Most cops don't know the law very well.
She thought she knew what was going on but she had no idea. Its mind boggling law enforcement isn't more educated about this.. even if it's just to educate people in their own districts.
@@aSpaghettiMan she wasn’t wrong. 🤷🏻♀️
Why? It’s not something they deal with often. These are normal beat cops. Fraud isn’t something they investigate. They just go make the arrests after detectives tell them to.
Glad that Trilogy Media decided to put their foot down when they were on the phone with the Newark Police to tell them, "hey, I can't move not knowing whether someone is going to pick up a package with stolen money, so please get down here right away!" Who knows what would've happened if you left the scene. Great job, you guys, and congratulations! 🎉🎊
Honestly this is scary that the Police were sorta enabling the scammers......
@@Darkmasterman45 People need to stop thinking the cops are on our side or care about us losing money or property.
The dispatcher needs some empathy for sure. But the Newark Officers that showed up were Absolutely incredible!
That was my favorite part. I felt like he was guarding a baby lamb. No way would he put it's life in jeopardy.
You guys are a blessing! I get emails all the time claiming there’s a charge on my Amazon account or my PayPal. The first thing I do is go to my accounts to see this charge. When I don’t see anything, I delete the email and mark it as scam. Please stay with it guys, we need you!❤
Patricia was so deep in the scam she couldnt believe she was being scammed even after she was told she was being scammed. These scammers are just terrrible people
Yeah, she was so dark deep in it! It’s mind boggling, I can’t believe it!!
Im sorry but it seemed a little bit staged.....
No he ist not from india...
Wtf!?
Tears of gratitude to your team of angels 😇
Blessings. I got scammed 10 years ago right after my hubby died. I didn’t get that deep but still it happens when most vulnerable. Thanks again.
I'm like, a month late but I hope you're doing well so far. May your Husband rest in peace.
Rip 😢
May your husband rest in peace and may God help you to continue in your healing. ♥

Holy smokes- I was sitting on the edge of my seat. What a roller coaster ride of emotion. Thank you for helping Patricia
You foiled the scammer, prevented a mule from his cut, educated police in real time, and got Patricia's money back to her. What a great story, and a great company. Thank you for all your dedication to helping and educating all good people.
No, they helped the scammer to get away with their crimes, by warning them by being there and not informing the police in time. This what was shown here is exactly how NOT to handle situations like this. So, Trilogy Media gets an F from me.
patricia was part of it, its so easy to tell she want from no she didn't to yes she sent the money , she's making a profit off it too, she couldn't even talk straight and was trying to avoid any confrontation with police and just trying to get them to calm down about the whole situation
they gave her a way out by immediately thinking ofh er as a victim when she could've been apart of it, she trying to act like a victim now
@@jr6905 I don’t think the 70 year old grandma is part of a scam organization
These hindi fux need to be stuffed into a prison. Brandon administration should be demanding action. It has gotten out of hand and India thinks its all a big joke. We should withhold aide and see what happens, but we won't.
Just love. Thank you so much for helping our elderly community. I just think YOU guys are angels, truly! ❤

@@helgafrahmann4201in which scams calls centre are you working?
As a training first responder the 911 operator was out of line. She was getting very aggressive and dismissive, it sickens me. People are in need of help that is your job to get people help no questions asked. Thank God for Trilogy Media and other channels like them for stepping up for these victims. Love you guys, keep doing what you are doing. And from the bottom of my being and soul, thank you. Thank you. Thank you for all you do💛
Thank you for speaking up especially that you know this field better than all of us! I’m a supervisor for a state call center and if one of my agents spoke to a member this way we would be having a very long convo with written final. We deal with both members and providers but when members call upset that they can’t get their meds or get a procedure done it’s our job to show empathy, use our listening skills and find a resolution. Plan and simple! I feel it’s the same with any phone job. Thank you @erynbowman8530 for training amazing first responders!
You never know what they go through man, she could've been on the phone with a suicidal person that took their own life, you really never know and they hear some of the worst stuff no one would wish to hear.
@@aviate7383it doesn’t matter you supposed to always stay professional. That’s why women are not really a good fit for jobs like that because they get emotional on the other hand woman are good at paying attention to detail

A lot of shaking. Maybe they should by a camera with image stabilization.
@@buzzman4860they might be older, be nice
I'm sitting here shaking and crying with joy because you were able to save a real victim. You are all amazing!
Heartwarming yes, but if your actually shaking you should see a doctor.
I’ve watched this multiple times now. This one was really crazy. I can’t really describe how it feels to see our elderly friends protected. Maybe a reverse skydive would be the best description. It’s like happiness, fear, anxiety, & anger combined.
Same here!! I really thought that Patricia wasn’t going to cooperate!

Bravo! I think we need this is different languages too. 🙈
Hi, I'm Dr. Peter from Nigeria and seeing what you guys do for humanity is just incredible! There are a lot of scammers across the world, particularly in India and Nigeria. These criminals here in Nigeria really give us a bad name and I love what you guys are doing. Good job guys!

@@peteremehel7303 you're right also Nigerias are the drug mafias here you guys are bad
@@peteremehel7303 you're correct Nigerias are doing as they please here in South Africa, drugs, human trafficking,scams,
Thank you Dr. Peter. You’re one of the good ones. There are scammers all over the world which saddens me. Like they say in the USA, the good have to suffer for the bad. 😢
The saddest part about this is that even the police have no idea what's going on. Basically, they could be the next victims in a decade or two...
I disagree. I believe as time progresses and the world naturally becomes more involved with technology, the cyber-scam industry will slowly fade away especially if people start to bring more awareness to this issue.
Remember, the only reason why these scams work in the first place is because they target 65+ yr old victims who lived most of their life in a time where technology and the internet wasn't as prevalent as it is now.
Just like Indian police who are total fraudsters. Your American police are totally illiterate. They are just by standers to this crime. If they are proactive these scammers and their money mules would have been in jail long time back. This is very unfortunate situation. Even to talk to your police and explain this is very difficult. They are focusing on catching kids smoking ganja. Such an achievement 🙂
@Dejay these are just entertainment channels and nothing happens.
IDK about that, who is going to send cash like that..,
@@matthewmccracken5179 old innocent people do it daily

That lady on 911 was so aggressive ....thanks you guy you saved the day
Well there was a scam going on. She couldn't ID them, and the cops were able to. So she was just doing her job. The cops were In a position of control, had she made the wrong move, she could contribute to who knows what.
I wouldn’t call it aggressive..I’d call it something else.
she aint aggressive, but just hasty.
@@veteranredbeard6222🎯Of course, but seems alot of people that comment don't think it through or consider the repercussions of a bad decision
Only in California 😅
It's so frustrating watching victims interacting with scambaiters. I get it that scams can be convincing, but if someone tells you there is a chance you're being scammed that should send off bells in your head no matter what the circumstance is. The fact that she's arguing "I know he's not from India" for the scammer is just such strange behavior.
I work at a nursing home and the majority of our residents have some form of dementia. This infuriates me to know that someone would take advantage of my vulnerable people like this.
Most people couldn't care less about people. If money's on the table, they'll push the others away
What timing! Thanks to Patricia for allowing us to witness this, not only did she get her money back the ripples of this video will be amazing. Well done everyone 💖
And it's ripples like this that join with others to become a rogue wave.
@@bluecat2991 good
This is hands down the most selfless thing I've ever seen,these guys are beautiful people,I was overjoyed to see them help Patricia and how he told dispatch I'm not taking my eyes off that package,when she asked him to move away,I just love it!!!!!!!Those scammers are disgusting people!!!!
Wow, California's finest. I guess they need to ask questions to learn but they are really slow on the pick up. Atleast they got her her money back.
Or I hope she did. I'm trying really hard to believe they are going to do right by her
I completely agree!
@@Celestial_Reach Ya when they talked to her after she got her money back she said she did and she thanked them
Im so glad the police officers actually took the time to investigate this situation. Usually they don't. So I'm very happy they did.
Usually they don't??? You are making quite an assumption based on opinion only. I was an officer for over 30 years. YES WE INVESTIGATE. In fact, many agencies work directly with the feds on EXACTLY this type of fraud. Why so anti police?
@@Belg6179 ohh, I'm not saying that. Sorry I kinda misword it. I meant to say "usually they can't" because the problem is overseas and the police can't really do anything about it because the scammer is in a foreign country.. so I'm glad they can do somethinng about the money mule situation.
I truly hope these kinds videos and moments set a precedent for local and international police departments, lawmakers in the future.
Yea the responder was rude as tho
This time they can do something because there is a lot of video footage of the suspects so it's a great start
Patrica was so incredibly brainwashed by these guys. These scams seem so obvious to me. Its so weird that folks fall so hard for this nonsense. Thank you for helping.
That's why mostly old folks fall victim to these scams. It's obvious to most people with an understanding of today's world, but not always as much with the older generation.
It was scary how Patricia seemed to be afraid that she was in trouble when they first called her. It stopped her from understanding what they were trying to tell her. Those scammers really got into her head.
a famous scambaiter (jim browning) did a bit for vice recently - and he admitted that he fell for a scam too!!! th-cam.com/video/CZbEQsKLRZQ/w-d-xo.html
Poor old broads.
While these scams seem completely obvious to you, do not fall into the trap of thinking you never could fall for any scam … that makes you an overconfident victim. See spear phishing.
It depends, really. There are multiple scams for hitting different age groups, so while some are very obvious (deliberately, so they dont need to deal with that), and others that arent.
There's a special place in hell reserved for these scammers. It makes me sick to my stomach how they take advantage of people. Big thanks to Art and Ashton for dedicating their lives to helping to fight against these low lifes. Trilogy Media rocks!!
And a special place in heaven for Ashton and his crew xxxxx
This was one of the best scambait video outcomes that I've seen. I was a little concerned when Pat was still talking with the scammer, as well as when she didn't want the package opened. I thought that she was going to resend it to the dirty rotten scammer, but it all turned out great. You guys should be so proud of what you do, and the difference that you make.
@C J W Don't be stupid.
Did the cops look scripted? Was the 911 call scripted?
Their high pitch giggle when they actually saved a victim is heart warming 😊
At 56:15
I know it was touching, they were so excited talking to the officer rapid fire info at the same time & he was doing his best to get it all. :)
Woooooow mission accomplished. Big up for you guys.
@TrilogyMedia Ashton, you are a total rock star. No way anyone else could spin tech plates like you. Everyone on the team - absolutely amazing. DANG!!! Ya’ll my heroes - thank you for what you all do. Damn, I don’t understand why they’re afraid to look up proof on you guys.
You guys are awesome! I'm a police officer, command staff, thank you for being on our side of the blue line. What you do is absolutely invaluable in the fight to stop these guys. Keep up the good work.
The very cool thing ab out it is, the cops listened and they didn't try to rile things up., Instead they talked at a very calm voice and really tried to listen and understand what was going on.
Many people have stepped in to try to prevent a crime from happening, and many police officers for some reason tend to go bananas and not really paying attention.
Maybe they were bored or didn't want to be bothered or something and they usually respond with. "You're gonna have to take that up with so and so". 🤷♀🤦♂
THESE police officer's though, really tried to understand and tried to really help out to solve a crime in progress.
Which is really awesome. Not all of us are bad out here LOL 🥰🥰🥰 there are some really good citizens left. 😁👍
I support cops, I don't support gang members and the blue line is a sign of a gang members. These officers did a good job.
You fukked up mentioning the blue line , we tax payers do not like that on our flag or the uniforms we pay for and you don't believe it just ask the citizens in your town 🤔
There’s no such thing as a “blue line”. Stop spreading that narrative. Good police are gold, bad ones need to be in jail. What you just typed makes me think you wouldn’t report a bad one. I seriously suspect you aren’t a real cop if you post something like that. 🤷🏻♀️
If only cops had the same reliable reputation as scam-baiters do.
Thank You Ashton, Art and Your Amazing Team… Unfortunately,
I too, know what it feels like to be victimized by professional scammers losing more than $37,000.00
God Bless You Guys for your dedication and intellect.
@susangrimes2729 Can I have $40 Susan, I'm so sorry to bother you but I only have an ebt card for food and I'm in need of toiletries, a new scrubby, shampoo, body soap, some dish cleaning tools. I'd greatly appreciate it, God bless you and have a great day.

I'm so happy that you got your money back Patricia! My mom is 70 years old and I always try to make her aware of the scams and what people will say to her and we are happy to know that you got your money back.
I was a recent victim and lost a lot of money. I am deeply grateful to you gentleman for your amazing work. You are so smart and the bravest of angels. Thank you for all you do to help save us. ❤

Thank you so much for protecting our elderly and vulnerable people everyday, you rock!
Oh sweet Patricia...my heart stopped when I heard that area code, she's in my own backyard. So many angels were with you that day making sure she got her money back. Excellent teamwork! Scammers used to laugh at me and mock me when I said Trilogy Media are my friends. Now, they sound sad, and hang up.
I’m in the same area code! Scary!
@@denisecaliendo9628 Certainly brings it home, a bit more real!
@@stpfs9281 absolutely does! I wanna find her and give her a hug!
Same local same area code as me too.
Please don't EVER stop what you guys are doing. YOU GUYS ARE THE GUARDIAN ANGELS 😇
Such a heartwarming story at the end ....shame on the 911 operator who was a jerk. That was uncalled for and they should be reprimanded for their callousness. You guys are saviours and we love the work you do!
Yes she was terrible 😅 maybe a bad day but nonetheless the situation called for immediate action
Today was a good day huh
To be fair, a cop stopping in front of a specific residence in question is dangerous with what they're alleging. Its completely reasonable to not want to show their hand until they establish the actual situation.
@@EPiQ_cR they are cops if they are scared then perhaps they shouldn't be cops. Asking them to move was not a lawful order not to mention these people were obviously calling to help
@@Barbles88 it isn’t about fear, it’s proper policing to not intentionally escalate a situation. Establishing details on a situation before engaging directly in it is fairly standard.
Otherwise every cop may as well show up to every call with an armored vehicle and guns drawn, right?
I was a UPS driver for 35/years this was cool. I got to work with some feds on elderly scams it felt great to help out.
Congratulations, guys. I am so happy for Patricia (and you two, as well). You guys are true HEROE!!! Keep up the great work!!
This made my day. That conversation with Patricia at the end was one of the most encouraging human encounters I've witnessed in a long time. Way to go guys.
I don't think the cops would've been as confused if just one of you guys talked at a time. When you talk over each other all crazy like that, it feels kinda sketchy. Still ..congrats on being able to help that old lady get her money back. Y'all doing great work out there.
My exact thoughts.
Its still a complicated thing to wrap your head around
Yeah I see that, I also think it was because they didn’t understand the scam, so at first it seemed like they thought the lady was involved in the check fraud. They’re like “why would this lady just send these guys 25k” and didn’t realize the extent of just how orchestrated it is. At least they know now and know what to look for.
Snuggi Without your suggestion , they did a great job and the cops understood quite well .. Insn't that something !
Trilogy is out here saving victims of scammers, the world needs more people like them.
That woman was dumb. She could have been helped.
100% they are literally angels in human form ..
May the almighty lord protect trilogy and his team ❤
Lots of love
@28:58 the Asian guy outsmarted him, he told him he was looking for an address to deliver but the address might be in another city second he did not even realize the guy wasn't holding the brown bag anymore.... That's the guy y'all were looking for
@@k3m505 maybe but he could have dropped off the food store delivery in his car already, its an unknown ending.
That situation with Patricia was absolutely heartbreaking. She was clearly being manipulated to an extreme extent that I didn’t even think was possible, and the scammer deserves locking up for a long time.
That 911 operator was a total jackass, btw.
I think people that are being scammed don't want to believe that they have lost a large amount of money, so they continue to cooperate with the scammer, even when it is shown to them what is actually happening.
I gotta say, I'm really impressed with how Ashton spoke to the poor lady. Just the level of sincerity and emotion was really impressive. I normally see videos where you both confront the scammer and being a bit more intense (which i also love) but that call really made me smile. Thank you guys. You're both wonderful.
I bet if it happened to the dispatcher or her family i gaurantee she wouldn't want him to move
I am really impressed with your ethics. As an older lady, I too, think I am safe and smart enough to be safe but I have been duped but not like this. I am so careful now. Thank you for your purpose in being what we all should be to each other! I wish more people would be willing to put themselves out like you do. You are hero’s!!! Thank you!!!
Wow. You guys saved Patricia's retirement savings. This is seriously amazing. Watching you guys save lives is worth more than just a like on TH-cam. Keep it up

I am from India, Kolkata one of the scammer's major hubs, I guess. Your documentary is worth screening amongst much wider audiences. What particularly struck me was your perseverance throughout that unfolding drama. You guys showed the world what "aware citizenry" means. That selfless dedication towards a social service as demonstrated by your team is a testament to evolved civic life. I will be keen to help you if you may need my help anytime.God bless you!
Hindu religion is demonic that is why the demons influence them to steal, kill & destroy (rape is rampage in India)! I am speaking truth! Turn back to worship Almighty God-Jesus Christ or burn in hell fires for all these sins including worship Hindus demons they called gods & goddess! Repent!
🛑WAIT🛑STOP🛑
THEY MAY BE THE 😎🤮SCAMMERS🤮
@@rowenacountryman2242 You mean I am a Scammer/scammers?
If you live there, you can be civic minded as well, and help prevent this cruelty from home.
Young men who suddenly have jobs at these “call centers” should be shamed and ostracized.
I have seen on Scam Baiter channel that many of these young men are lying to their families about where their sudden wealth comes from.
And apparently the police there are being bribed to do nothing.
I wish you understood how the people who rob our vulnerable seniors make your whole country seem corrupt.
I have so many elderly patients who will not talk to anyone on the telephone who has an Indian accent.
That is not fair to the vast majority of people in your country, but it is the reality.
In many people’s minds, India=scammers. Therefore Indians are not to be trusted.
You can help by demanding the police shut the call centers down, and by preventing your boys from becoming scammers. Even being vocal about how wrong it is to scam others could save one life.
@silentlatif unfortunately the scammers try every trick in the book so even your kind gesture are motives that will be questioned. Sad, as many people from India are kind and generous. These people will undermine the view of your people.
TIMING!!! The Asian dude & Adian girl in sweats were working together!!
What a stroke of GOOD LUCK!!! So very happy this senior got her money back!! I hope your team puts the fear of God in these creatures!!
This drop off will probably no longer be good!
Thank you so much for ALL the good you do!!
Funny
,
YEAH. THEY WERE WORKING TOGETHER. DELIVERING FOOD PUT MY ASS. NO WAY!!
WOW...seeing 911 act like that I have NO FAITH in our legal system! Treating these guys like THEY'RE doing something wrong is absolutely ridiculous!!!
What are you talking about?
They did exactly the right thing.
They didn’t see what we saw, and had to be brought up to speed.
If not for the police, the woman wouldn’t have gotten her money back.
@@docinparadise this is a case where time is of the essence and if he would have followed the dispatchers instructions that package would have been gone.
@samomico9536 correct, but the dispatcher is trying to keep the caller safe and preserve the evidence. They have to have some sort of procedure and no procedure is guaranteed for all scenarios. They just all did their best. The only criticism I'd have is of the journalists who should have called the police the moment they knew any kind of crime was being committed at this address. Btw Is it legal to produce large quantities of fake notes in the US? Were the police already in on it?
Well technically they should have called the police line, not 911. It's not a life threatening situation
@@nichegoseberazdvatriit was a situation where time was of the essence so wtf is the big deal

God bless you guys. Seeing a real victim being helped so tremendously (25 thousand!!) is so amazing to see. What you are doing matters & these people are pieces of garbage.
$25k damn that was my year salary in 2015-2018
Those cops where beyond amazing 56:23
The 911 operator needs education!
YAYA FOR PATRICIA!!! WHAT A BLESSING!!! 🙏🏽 Makes me want to cry.
Guys, it felt like I was there with you! The anxiety you must have felt just waiting to see what would happen with that package! You really do perform the Lord's work every day doing this. Patricia was on the verge of never seeing her money again, and she was also on the verge of believing everything the scammer was telling her. If you did not step in at the exact moment you did, she would have lost all of her cash!! Have a great Thanksgiving, guys!!

FedEx and UPS should create a task force to help with these crimes
Thank you for helping these victims ❤
For real. Duct taped shoe boxes sent to an abandoned address multiple times per day should raise some pretty obvious red flags...
Yes, I made a similar comment just now that they should be trained and aware of what's going on and some kind of protocol for dealing with these situations.
Already have that in canada. Noone cares enough to try because if they are wrong they loose their jobs.
Those drivers, and their loss prevention people are over-worked and underpaid. I used to work for a contractor for UPS processing claims. Those companies don't really feel like that's something they should be doing. Unless and until the companies are held liable in some way. But, it would be a great marketing idea to advertise that they are stepping up their game to prevent suspicious packages from being delivered.
Don't hold your breath.
@@TheEvilDrR right, they don't care unless it's affecting their business in some way so they need an incitive and maybe their marketing would be a start. We're moving toward a cashless society anyway so I'm not sure if it would be something they would consider investing into it at this point in the game
Man I damn near cried at the end. So happy to know you guys are out there helping the people who need it most. Patricia is an angel. Yall are legends
I did have tears of happiness. Nice to see some victories in this time and day.
It’s all an act, with actors. The cops aren’t real. Their belt setup is bull, no tasers, and not a single radio transmission? This channel is crap. Thought you would want to know. What are the cops names? They never give them cuz those can be verified. Open your eyes!
I was so anxious as it was unfolding. I was literally on the edge of my seat. I could hardly take the waiting & suspense! What a perfect surprise pkg for the team!!
man this is the type of content that deserves all the success, helping these people and using your resources to fight scammers is such a noble thing to do.
Except for their last video the predator video was orchestrated horrendously.
….it’s fake
@Jason can you explain why you think it is fake?
I was virtually wet eyed by the end. So happy for Patricia.

8:51 I'm literally crying right now, that is so sad and sick of the scammer. 😭
Also I cannot believe that dispatcher hung up on you she had the worst attitude that was absolutely uncalled for.
I feel like Art was genuinely considering the risk of a Felony to get that lady’s money back.
The man's heart is pure gold
He absolutely was considering it. Had he been there alone I believe he'd have most likely taken it directly to the police.
