As someone who has worked the call center for people’s cards, this isn’t a victimless crime. They think, “well as long as they eventually get the money back,” but they don’t think of the person 200 miles from home trying to fill up on gas in the middle of the night on a road trip, stranded in the middle of nowhere because their account is drained and now they can’t afford gas; or a family that can’t afford food for a week. I’ve seen this stuff happen too much to pretend it’s victimless.
My ex husband had his account hacked on Christmas eve. It played havoc with our plans for the holiday and well into the new year.
They are switched on enough to know it's not victimless. If it's a scam they are unlikely to get money back. Only way is if the bank is good to then or makes concessions towards the relationship as goodwill. It's only straight fraud with 0 error on customers part they are guaranteed to get money back.
Worked at a big bank for Fraud protection for over ten years. You’re right it’s not victimless at all. It can get someone evicted if it’s at the wrong time, can keep a baby without diapers and formula, and can keep people from getting vital medications. People also don’t realize that the more idiots doing this stuff, the more fees on banks and cards go up so they can continue to make money.
My account was hacked (card cloned) the day before my daughter's birthday party. I went to the ATM to get the remainder of the money for the venue we booked for her party and money was gone. I ended up having to take out a title loan on my car to pay for her party. Although I was able to resolve what happened, the panic that I felt in that moment I wouldnt wish on my worst enemy
@@daisywaizy4139yikes. You couldn’t ask family or a friend tho bro?! Getting a title loan for a few hundred bucks is wild. Sad situation tho. Most scammers don’t target poor people. Usually only people with 50k in their account.
Gotta be honest, the best part of being broke/poor is knowing that if anyone steals my cards it’ll just be denied🤣🤣
same lol
Yeah, but if you have your rent money in your account, and this dillweed steals your money before you can pay your rent, how much of a pain is that going to be, even if the bank eventually refunds your money.
Thankfully, most modern banking apps allow you to lock your card.
Your not poor if your bills are paid before you go having fun… u ain’t broke or poor ur responsibly adulting
they can use your card on many sites and the transaction will go through once money hits the account
That woman in the store was totally against scammers until she got some free stuff. This is how corruption works and how easy it is for people to become complacent.
Idk, I think she probably just felt awkward with a big group of criminals around her with a camera in her face, not that she was stoked that she got a free Pepsi
She also was on camera surrounded by many criminals……so yeah I would definitely would feel nervous and probably say what I need to walk away safely
she just a regular person going to the corner store why would she risk standing up to them lol
So true
I think so too. Just say no thanks, you're not gonna get jumped at least you're not complicit in a crime. Maybe she felt threatened or like something would happen outside and it was just really weird, but I think in that situation I would have felt ok to say no even if I don't feel safe to call them out. Just leave and hurry away.
I used to know Dev personally. This guy is pretty smart. None of the stuff he's doing is real. That $10k he got from the bank, he walked in WITH the $10k originally and asked the clerk to count it through a money counter to see how much it was. The clerk them banded it up and handed it back to him. Everything you see is easily explainable. That's why he's never been caught, because there's nothing to catch.
LOL
100% and it's so obvious. He's not even that devious. He's literally getting paid 100s of 1000s off of his social accounts. It's laughable.
The scam is within his marketing and how people are giving him views which in turn is making him rich.
Yup. He's just scamming the lil kids in the comment sections.
its true, even in the video when they cash out 600 from the ATM you can see its literally his own account lol
My 78 year old mother was scammed and it was a nightmare. Scammers need to be locked up for life. They are the scum of the earth.
Aw I'm sorry to hear that. It's just horrible... they are the scum of the earth. Lock them up!!!
Shame on you for allowing her to get scammed, I took care of my batshit kooky mom for YEARS I always kept it moving, a step ahead, she came close but I had the bases covered, it's on you
@@bethewalt7385 Ummmm… that’s pretty shortsighted of you. You don’t know anything about the relationship between the poster and their mother. When my mom was 78 she and my 79 year old dad were working out with a personal trainer, still traveling, going to and having parties. My dad was still working and my mom was always busy with volunteering.
So hold your tongue. Unless you have a personal relationship with @lauraw3338 you don’t know anything about her or her mother.
I think you’re terrible for being so quick to be so nasty and judgmental. I’m sure glad I don’t know you. You might not be as terrible as you sound, so next time think before you post such criticism then let your humanity show. I truly hope you’re actually a nice person who was feeling particularly grouchy when you made this post.
BTW: Anyone can get scammed no matter their age. I hope it never happens to you or any of your loved ones, but you never know.

My *FAVORITE* thing to do is ask obvious foreign scammers what the weathers like in the city that showed up on my caller ID. Had a guy in "Phoenix" agreeing how dangerous the icy roads were in winter.
EDIT: It's all in good fun. I've had scammers in "Denver" agreeing that alligators are becoming a real problem. 🐊😂
@@Mataylor17Average 😂
As someone who lives in Phoenix I can confirm the icy roads are super dangerous in winter.
Gas Pump Skimming is a constant thing here in Vancouver BC Canada
Lol good one 🤣
Oh the puppy scamming thing is rampant - big time - when we got our pup 4 years ago thankfully my hubby is tech savvy and was able to do reverse image searches and such and we did not loose money. But we did eventually get a pup. Her name is Maggie Mae
I think it’s dumb to flaunt your cash and jewelry if you made it legally, but imagine putting yourself out there knowing you made it all illegally. 😂 That’s like speeding with drugs in the car. The definition of self snitching 🤡💀
"That boy ain't right, I tell you what."
It's like speeding with a dead body in the trunk.
Oh wait... that happened a few videos ago. People are idiots.
its all a facade. punchmade dev doesn’t actually scam or he wldve been arrested.
Like a self published thief catalogue
@@wearedyingslow he scams his fans, charging them $200 for a nonexistent cashapp account with 2000-10,000 balance. and tommy g was totally in on the scam
"Invest in what, a lawyer?" Had me rolling
same lmfao
When Bruce said he hates $20s. Hates when people pay him in $20s. They're really smelly and been sitting around a long time.... my first thought was the $20s or the people?
🤣🤣🤣
I had my wallet stolen by a junkie who went on a shopping spree around town, using all my credit cards. I noticed and had all my accounts closed within hours and before too much damage (I did get all the money they spent back, but yes, it was a major pain in the butt), BUT this happened DAYS before my husband and I were taking our kids on our first family vacation since before the pandemic. I had NO ID and NO form of payment to go on vacation. It ruined our vacation!! Scammers have no idea what is going on in their victims lives and how much damage they might be doing. They are horrible people.
Hours? Bruh I lost my wallet and another time my Uber drove off with my wallet and I had my shit closed and cancelled within minutes
They do, They just don't care. They tell themselves it's victimless to feel okay about their crime.
That's not scamming called getting robbed.
And they don’t care. Protecting your credit might mean more than protecting your kid’s.
You seem to have shown your children how to deal with it in a classy way.
sadly this guy is smarter than the lawyer. he's not really scamming it's all a facade so he can get people to join his online course. it's sort of brilliant.
Tbh I kinda feel like he just came from a rich family and is doing this to fuel the rap career.
That’s facts he’s not hitting any methods accept his fans sending him money 😂
been feeling like this was the case. Its impossible to be doing so much illegal stuff and still being free, its obvious hes not actually a scammer
@@yna418 Step number 2 to becoming buzzing rapper. Lie your ass off!
@@yna418 Ngl... Yaw don't understand how court works... Our justice system is FUCKED.
Anyone who’s ever been a victim of identity theft will tell you it’s horrible. The worst part is is that the scammer now has the victims name in the judicial system as THEIR alias, so now the actual person, the victim, is constantly having the scammers record follow THEM and they constantly have to prove they’re the real person.
I was robbed a couple of months ago: passport, car registration, my wallet with all of my cards, hardly any money. Still it costed me about 500 to get everything again. And then we are not speaking of the emotional costs of feeling exposed and victimised.
My friend got $1800 taken from her bank account and it took a month for the bank to fix it. She was so stressed about how she was gonna pay her bills the whole time. Her husband is sick and she has a small child. So that’s who scammers are hurting.
She’d hate me
Yep that’s the issue, sure people can and do get their money back, but not having that money available when they planned for it can change peoples lives. When you’re paycheck to paycheck without much of a safety net saved away, that one month can completely change your entire life
@@CrashoutJD777til you catch lead
2 bad 😂😂most of them not getting caught
I'm in a similar boat right now. Some idiot bought 4 iPads with my credit card info before the credit card company started blocking the transactions. This was in early July and I haven't heard anything from the bank fraud team since our initial call and the transactions are still on my account. Honestly it felt like Apple was more helpful than my credit card company. So I'm pretty pissed at them.
Nothing like being a criminal, filming yourself commit the crimes and posting online for the world to see. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
90% sure this is some viral marketing shit. No criminal worth his salt would show his face in such a "documentary".

I was just in Japan last month for a cultural exchange through my college and while I was there, I talked to some of the students who will be coming to my college for schooling and the number one question they asked was about property crime. It was so embarrassing to have to tell them that it is a real problem here. In Japan, property theft is almost non-existent. It's so sad that people are like this.
Just gave the 👎 because it is very sad, depressing, and scary. I hate that you had to tell Japanese students about this happening.
@@tinavasquez7206You can dislike the information on the comment but giving it a like gets more people to see it. I agree it's very sad. I live in a wee village in Scotland, I would've take a risk of leaving my door unlocked at night with my kids home but usually if I'm out during the day the door is unlocked and I've no worries about that.
They do it daily and control the fentanyl crisis they do not care lol
Because also in Japan, you literally disappear for breaking the law/stealing
@Tactics_Actual that may be true, I don't actually know if that's how their justice system works but that's not why it's like that. The reason people don't steal in japan has much more to do with culture and history than it does the punishment for the crime.
My dad started getting calls telling him,his grandson was in jail and needs “bail” money, from several cities. Yes, he called me the first time and I promised him, he was fine and working. After the third call, he seriously started to believe them and thought we were lying to him. I had to ask my son to stop by his grandpa house on his way home and all was well. The reason he started to wonder is because, he worked at the airport and can fly where ever he wants, so it seemed plausible to my dad. He also thought maybe we were having money problems and didn’t tell him, I assured him we were doing fine and if I needed money for my child, I most certainty would ask him
This is difficult to read can you use the ↩️ button and space out your words please?
Lol exactly@@frostedlambs
I had the exact same thing happen to me, they said that my wife had a warrant out of Johnson county Tennessee, I’ve been with my wife since I was 15 and I’m 42 now and knew beyond the shadow of a doubt that my had never been to Johnson county Tennessee. Long story short they had a warrant and she was going to picked up the next day at our house. But they wanted $3,000 for a bond and they wouldn’t show up to get her. While I was on the phone with the scammer “Johnson county sheriff’s department” popped up on my caller identification my mind was blown honestly. I work 70 hours a week and try to do nothing but provide for my family I’m an Iraq/Afghanistan combat vet and it blows my mind how people do this stuff
That happened to my elderly parents. Cost them $3000. Hope there's a special place in hell for these people.
The same thing happened to my mom.
I worked for a now defunct electronics store. One time out loss prevention caught a guy stealing like $20 of merchandise. For one reason or another, they decided to get the police involved instead of releasing him and banning him from the store (Maybe they had evidence of a past theft.) The police came and detained him and performed a search on his van. What they found turned made his mild crime of theft child's play. In the back of his van was equipment to create credit cards using info he skimmed from credit card reader. Additionally, hundreds of "blank" credit cards loaded with stolen card numbers.
Loss Prevention celebrated that week.
Crazy how many rent a cops think they can arrest someone lol have fun getting shot for 10$ a hour.
Why would he steal merchandise if he already had scam money?

2: Trust no one

I was scammed. Someone charged $2,000 at Walmart on electronics. I caught it and my bank went after them. I think these scammers should go to prison. They put me through hell with the anxiety and having to wait for a new charge card.

I can’t stand people who steal from others like this. I spent hours dealing with the aftermath of someone trying to obtain a fraudulent loan under our business. Luckily, a letter was sent to our house because their bank refused the money due to the fact that it wasn’t our own business account. How it got this far, I have no idea, but I would love to have known the absolute scum who tried to do this to us.
Probably a current or ex employee, someone would have had to of known enough personal information to get that far, maybe someone who did your accounting, then had someone you didn’t know apply, they would have probably spoken to someone you dealt with or who knew enough about you from past dealings, and look and see if it was started when you were absent, generally they try when you are out of town..
had to blacklist myself on all credit unions from my dad stealing my identity many times, also did it to my mom & attempted with my gf.
Never got to confront him; his landlord found him dead a few weeks later and tried to scam me + half-brother for rent, bills etc. he missed while deceased...then stole his keys & unpaid car.
i wouldn't much mind if other scammers rotted alone too.
Cmon guys the government steals from your asses everyday, what’s the difference with this?
I think repeat identity theft criminals should be given life sentences. I mean they literally steal other people's lives so let their lives be stolen too 🙃
YALL COMPLAINING ABOUT THE PETTY SCAMMERS, WE ARE ALL BEING SCAM BY THE FORCES THAT RUN THIS COUNTRY EVERYDAY , SO IF THE GOVERNMENT WHO WE LET LEAD US IS DOING IT THE REST IS GOING TO DO IT TO!!! Everyone HAS BEEN STEALING FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIMES ISH THIS COUNTRY WASNT OURS BUT THEY CAME AND JUS STARTED BUILDING ON IT AND SAID IT WAS THERES . You can’t hate it all u want BUT THIS THE REALITY OF OUR WORLD , THE BEST THING I CAN TELL EVERYONE IS TO BE PREPARED AND STAY ON TOP OF THINGS . DONT BE NIEVE TO IT & ACT LIKE WE LIVE IN THIS PERFECT WORLD. Everyone IS TRYING TO GET OVER THE BANKS , ALL THE BUSINESSES ETC…
As a bank fraud investigation manager I can assure you it is not a victimless crime. When the bank loses the community loses as well. And often the loss is put back on the customer. The Stories that I could tell you. Having said that a lot of people go along with the scams because of their own greed.
Giving people stress and stealing their time and putting marks next to their name is not victimless even if they get the money back but it's a load of bs that the bank isn't charging all they can get away with every quarter, if there were no scams it would be no different and many scams are only possible because of complacency of the bank and other institutions that make a calculation the losses make up for the gains, a calculation which never takes into account the victims who get hit. Sorry no sympathy for the wealthiest people in the world nickle and diming the poorest, not much better than the scammers just on the convenient side of the law.
I guess you fail to understand that the banks already failed and Don't have the money to withstand a small test 😮
Then can you report this video to your superior please? I'm sure they can get in contact with someone who can report this crap

My mother has had a situation where she kept getting fraud charges on her credit card. At this time my mother and I were about to become homeless and the charges would be for around $300 and $600 dollars this led to multiple nights of us both not being able to eat all the while living in a shelter. Scammers like this don’t deserve documentaries on what they do, they don’t deserve platforms, they deserve to be put in jail. It’s sad how they don’t think of the people who could be going through the worst times in their and how their money could literally be all they have.

I had 1000 withdrawn from my account along with an attempt to cash a 23,000 cheque, basically attempted identity theft, the cheque never cleared and once i noticed i reported it, but bc they used my pin to take out the 1000 out i was not reimbursed.

@@kingdingaling2469 Those skimmers that get attached to ATMs or the pay station thing at a gas station. If you put in your card and type your pin thats how it takes it.
Hey, Bruce. Did you know that $20s are the most often counterfeited bills? No one checks them, so they're super easy to pass. In various jobs we always checked $50s and $100s, often badly (with the marker, which doesn't work if the bill is washed and uses real bill paper or something...) But we *never* check $20s. You're working at McDonalds, or a diner, or Walmart? It's too busy to be checking $20s. If you don't do it TERRIBLY, they're easy to offload and more profitable than $10s. Plus, no one even questions a stack of $20s because that's what ATMs dispense, duh.
OF COURSE THE SCAMMER HAS A STACK OF $20s. OF COURSE HE DOES. IF YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW.

They tell you just pay for the shipping, and then say they have to send it in 3 different boxes so you have to pay an extra shipping fee after you already paid the $100..
Claiming a child died to scam people is beyond scandalous and they should be ashamed of themselves.

This was an awesome session! I am in a digital forensics degree program and I cannot believe that the amount of scammers out there these days. Perhaps we need to take a step back and use cash again and use the old fashion way when buying thing like Sears and JCPenny via the catalog. Always change passwords every three months, passwords should be 12 characters long, and check your bank account daily.
Bruce, welcome back and I love the facial features. So distinguished.
What we need to do is like they’ve done in Europe for at least the past 20 years and make every credit card accompanied by a manual PIN, which is decoupled from the card. This way, even if someone can skim a card, they still need the PIN.
The fact is our banks are too cheap to invest in such a system and customers too lazy to take the extra time and effort.

"the whole world's a scam, they just look at me as the bad guy" best devils advocate argument I've ever heard.
I remember they used to be a show called “it takes a thief” where a former thief would rob someone’s house, so that they know where the weak spots are. And then the former thief would then give them tips, and also technology to protect their house.
A friend of mine got early onset dementia and she was scammed at least 3 times in 6 months. One was for $6000, one for $3000, and the third time my mom was there and caught it in time to stop her. It's a massive pain, it takes a ton of time to deal with and it's horribly stressful. If people don't have a backup they are screwed until they can get things turned around. These people are scum, most of the people they scam are not wealthy. They should get VERY long sentences.

Bruce is the Criminal Lawyer! Welcome back my friend. It looks like you had a wonderful trip! Keep that damn beard. It's like Stallone in Rocky IV when he's in Russia running up the mountains during the training scenes (LOL)!
"who tf likes 20s" made me 10x more of a fan than I already was lol. You're the best Bruce!
These people are horrible examples of the human race and they're PROUD of it. Ugh. Unbelievable, disturbing. Btw, the beard looks really good.
Do you mean the guy himself or the character has portrayed? His money is obviously legit and all the scams stuff is fake For the movie, right? But yeah, the character he is playing, the criminal, definitely terrible. But I don’t believe the guy is the criminal.. Surely no one would be so stupid as to produce their own confession
@@snared_ You got it right on the nose. He is simply portraying a character for his music, and he really just scams his own fans by selling "scamming methods" which are completely fake, and ultimately just a way for him to make some quick money.
you're the lawyer, and he still may be commiting a crime, but I still did learn a lot about how scamming works for this. I am trying to get into cybersecurity and I actually found this self snitching very helpful for my studies
its not really self snitching, its all fake for clout. its simple social engineering.
Hope the feds are building a big case on this man. Get him locked up.
Exactly! Let's make this go viral. 😡😡
He’s not a real scammer, he makes a fake lifestyle to make it look good then gets idiots to buy his “scam methods” through telegram where he gets them for 200-500$ each and then he blocks them, he has thousands of people on his telegram
I’m sure he’s been on their radar for a LONG time & they’re building a rock solid case on him. Can’t wait till Bruce covers his trial 🤣
@@laurabee9788he jus scams his fans for verses n stuff. all the credit card scamming is a lie lol. hes not actually doing that. bro used to be a 2k youtuber

21:31 you hit that 100%. As if it’s not bad enough, To steal from someone that only has $600 in the bank is the worst. Honestly….Even IF the person gets it back (and on a debit that is a BIG IF on hundreds of dollars), it’s definitely going to take at least 10 days. For sure that person and his/her family suffers during those stressful 10 days.
Been there. Had $4 in the bank and less before, I was sweating nonstop until I got paid next hoping I wouldn’t have any unexpected bills autopay and take my $4. It’s terrifying. He’s POS for taking that man’s $600 to buy ugly ass chains and cheap gas station food

Lmao Lexington is far from perfect but Gotham!?! Get real. And what blocks are paid off? Go visit an actual big city and see how bad the crime is. The cops around here are more worried about drug dealers than these worthless scammers. His days are numbered though.

If he did it to someone's prepaid debit card there's nobody to reimburse that money and I'm sure he doesn't know the difference
Well, I did learn something! My card was declined twice today and I ended up swiping it!!! Pure synchronicity to fall on your content today Bruce? I say YES!!!!
Watching Bruce flip out on this video is gold lol
"Learn how to scam." Learn how to work for your own money and be a decent human being. I wouldn't be able to sleep well at night doing this to people that are trying to get by in this crazy world.
Dev is the biggest troll 😂
I hope there are repercussions for these people after this. Disgusting behaviour.
Agree they are punks
Please do a follow up video when hes ultimately arrested. Cant wait to see how this goes 😂
Honestly how does this guy not end up in prison within 5 years
He's either doing a bit, or the stupidest criminal of all time.
Hes not an actual scammer. Just a scam rapper
@up2sum152 no no, he is a scammer. Don't get that twisted. No one is checking for his album or trash mixtapes.
Thanks Bruce and Michael. This one really made my blood boil as a person living on very limited means who had my account cleaned out by scammers as a result of a purchase I made from an ad that came up on facebook. I never received the goods and because I got continuous emails from them saying that the purchase was delayed but on the way, I didn't have the savvy to cancel my card. Months later they cleaned me out and my bank refused to cover it. I am still not back on my feet and to see this brazen AH boasting and bragging about doing this to people like me is infuriating. Hope he ups his game enough to spend years rotting in prison which is actually too good for this bastard. Sorry guys but this was so triggering for me!
If you have a job, and you're still poor does that not say enough??? Your employer has been scamming you. You're cheap labor to them. Wanna live better??.....do better by yourself. No one else will
He's not a scammer he used to stream 2k and now he does motivational speaking and has courses on being a business owner😂
Don't be poor?
If this isn’t all a hoax itself, the misery that is about to befall him is so enormous.
it has to be fake, there's no way he produced his own confession video
@@DavidRodriguez-hh6kxthis was not fake, he did that for real
never forget bro was a gta streamer at first😂
yeah its gotta be faked otherwise he would get ganked
Hopefully! You can't count on the law anymore.
WOW, “he’s not coming home until 2058.” That video makes me never want to use my debit card ever again. The drive thru, gas stations, convenience stores. This shit is crazy. This video helps and hurts at the same time. I hope the FBI swoops down and scoop scam their asses up. The vast majority of people who are scammed don’t have money for this shit, and they just don’t care. 35 year’s
I thought I'd never touch paper money again, but it looks like I have to go back to this.
Bruce is awesome in every way. Or at least, he appears that way. And as a parent, him being so praising of his son is actually one of my fave ways that he's awesome.
I'm totally with you on this one, there is NO SUCH THING AS A VICTIMLESS CRIME!
No. Why do you think EVERYONES insurance is through the roof!
@@chrisorrell3066 because there is no such thing as a victimless crime, like I said before.
There are tons of victimless crimes. Jaywalking, or selling alcohol after midnight. But stealing is never victimless.
There are plenty, because there are plenty of stupid laws.
@@sandy-quimsrus ya that’s exactly what I was saying. I was kinda being sarcastic lol
I like watching videos like this and seeing all sides of the story. Scammers have a fun run but people often forget that the feds dont come knocking until its time to take you. They was already gathering evidence.. Any and everything can and will be used in court..
Also.. Criminals are technically needed for Lawyers.. Its almost a beneficial relationship
Update*** His scams are real, but he doesn't do the scams. He actually makes his money teaching scammers "how to scam for $200 on telegram". They pay for the lesson and the lessons taught don't actually work 😂😂. He makes money from scamming potential scammers. And they can't go to the cops...crazy right?
Doesn't matter he needs to go to jail

You’re a moron if you thought that was real.
my fiancé and i have had our WELFARE stolen more than once! while we are homeless and while i’m PREGNANT. this shit infuriates me. i just barely got my benefits returned to me after they were stolen for the second time-the first time they didnt return it to me though.
i hope they arent doing this to people like myself who desperately rely on our measly (but grateful for) monthly “benefits”😢
I feel for you and this hits home. It took me so long to go through that process, and then had to wait to receive benefits, that I only qualified for because what I thought was a nagging stomach pain turned out to be stage 4 colon cancer at the age of 33. It was 3-4 months later my account was wiped out. I still have no idea how it happened, and never had anything like that happen before. My only guess is somehow during the process of filling out paperwork maybe something got leaked? I wish I knew so I could prevent it from happening again.
If they want to steal my identity, can they take my medical debt too?!
PSA - I eat right and have been a healthy long distance ultra marathon runner most of my life, get screened! In my case it was hereditary colorectal cancer, and still have to fight every few years for benefits.
That is some next level evil. So sorry you had to go through all this.
Welfare? Lol so now you don’t like theft? Welfare IS theft. You were a thief first.
Sheesh, 1 million subs already. I remember being here at 20K
Lol
Even though he's technically aiding and abetting, I feel like the feds will give him a break for getting this guy to expose his whole operation in 4k.
He's really not aiding and abetting. He's not doing anything to help the dude commit his crimes. He's just there filming it and explaining whats going on. It may be raunchy and it may be immoral, it's journalism and protected under the 1st amendment. unless he paid for his gas to go to the bank or he gave him a ride, aiding and abetting is an absolutely massive stretch.
@@rylandavis2976 What part of this is journalism? He's vlogging a crime and this is the same fool who thinks this is a victimless crime. He's quite literally driving them around to different places where they are placing fraudulent charges. AND he told him to get him something (sausage pizza) knowing that it was being bought fraudulently. At what point are you going to hold this guy accountable? And are you a lawyer?
They are just clowns, video is scripted, they didn’t scam anything, don’t believe everything on the Internet
He can say its all a script since its for education purposes. And he didn’t commit any crime. All of that was mostly likely his own money.

You can’t charge a husband and wife with the same crime.😂
This guy interviewing really did his best trying to make him rethink his choices lol
About 5 years ago I got scammed at a gas station skimmer on the pump to about $80....I did get my money back from the bank. I was advised to never, ever use my debt card...instead either cash or my visa card.
just watching how clueless yall are is crazy😂😂😂😂
Keep us up to date on his trial if he ever gets caught! Need to see you break that down lol
This is the best promotion ever. He couldn't pay for promotion this good 😂😂😂
It's not just banks that he's stealing from. Even if you can recoup the stolen funds the banks don't turn around & hand it all back the moment you request it. That may take a few days. Banks aren't absorbing these losses they're passing it along to us in exorbitant fees. He's stealing from us as well.
That's a little false, as the banks are still profitable. They aren't 'passing' anything on, as the costs could be easily absorbed. That's just some bull they tell you to shift the responsibility of their own greed onto others
A quick google search says dude is being investigated now. I hope his trial is posted on video somewhere so I can watch him go down.
PRESS LIKE FOR BRUCE TO KEEP THE BEARD!
I’m so glad Bruce is still beard certified
The worst are the romance scammer, I really hate those guys. There are people who send them their whole life savings and nobody reimburse them, they get hurt financially and emotionally
Just don’t be a ham 🤣
The reason he's so comfortable showing himself "scamming" is because he's not actually doing anything illegal like he's claiming. You can see his name on the ATM screen when he's pulling money out of it (a.k.a. withdrawaling his own money)
Did he transfer that money into his account tho from someone else he stole from...? Altho I'm think this is all fake, no way someone is this blatant with committing felonies.
@@NickyBlue99 how many 20 yr olds have a solid grasp of the technologies used in banking institutions? then have the wisdom to exploit them esp if weaknesses we fixed 20 yrs ago are their exploit targets, he is a scammer fooling young kids into thinking what he does is possible, but the ads.
It can really be either him just LARPing for publicity and making money off his rap or he may actually just be a dumbass. Criminals are usually not very smart.
That would be amazing and I'd love him for it
He is scamming someone
PunchMade Dev was mistaken about what the $250K threshold is for: That's how much is insured per customer (via the FDIC for ordinary banks and S&Ls, and via the NCUA for credit unions) in case the bank fails, but that doesn't apply if the bank is still financially healthy and it's just a particular customer that was scammed; there is no automatic protection in that case, but banks in most cases do eventually refund customers in cases of fraud.
Also, another way in which this is not a victimless crime is that if the fraud is committed via a cloned payment card, the card-issuer will, after refunding the customer, seek that money from the *merchant* (who would then have standing to sue the fraudster), and especially in low-margin retail sectors, this can devastate small businesses.
he was mistaken bc he’s faking this whole thing 😂
Self snitching at its finest 💀 How tf is he not caught
The most disturbing part is his lack or remorse. To say nobody gets hurt is bogus. At the least, businesses pass their losses on to the consumer via higher fees and prices. Plus, it’s a pain to replace all your cards or getting a new account.
Wait what!!?? At least businesses scam you too! Wtf tax YOU because THEY lost!! They should rot
He’s not scamming fr😂😂😂
Good call Bruce as always spitting the truth,enlightening folks and giving great advice that my friend is called a conspiracy what he did, even if he didn’t knowingly take part in the scam like you said, you can’t teach people how to scam that’s called a conspiracy, any illegal act with more than one person, or knowledge of a criminal act or enterprise( now they can’t look inside your head and know what you know or see what you know, but when you put it all on film for the whole world to see then yes) and yes, I tell my mom and my family and friends never use the machine at the pump unless the gas station is closed and it’s after midnight or after hours and you absolutely have to always go inside for many reasons one they can put a hold on your account sometimes up to $200 on a debit card which is crazy and they can’t do the skimming machines inside at the register only on the pump even some ATMs they have the skimming machines…
No, it is not conspiracy to teach people how to scam. Conspiracy requires much more than just plain information on how to do an illegal thing. Information on how to do something that is illegal, is 100% constitutionally protected speech. You don't get to conspiracy until you start making a plan to actually do it, or money changes hands.
It's like saying it's illegal to teach someone how to hack into computers, it's just not. You can literally pay for classes and get entire degrees that will teach you how to hack into computers, there are entire TH-cam channels dedicated to teaching hacking. It's the entire concept of red team v blue team, big companies will literally pay people to try to hack into their systems, and in exchange the hackers write a report on how they did it and what to improve. Information like how to hack computers and how scams operate is 100% constitutionally protected speech, even things like how to make a bomb are constitutionally protected speech. Considering raw information like this as "conspiracy" is fundamentally contradictory to freedom of speech they cannot coexist together.
Probably the best example is the Snowden case. Snowden took the information that he illegally stole from the government and gave it to the new York times. The new York times then went and publicly published these highly classified and illegally obtained information. By your definition of conspiracy, the new York times staff should all be in jail right now. We literally have a supreme Court decision on this very issue. It's called new York time co vs United States and the court ruled that not only could the government not punish the journalists who published the Pentagon papers, the court denied the governments request of an injunction against publication. Conspiracy requires a hell of a lot more than just posting on TH-cam how crimes are committed
@@rylandavis2976 yeah but if no one tells on you and you teach someone how to commit a crime if they can prove that it is a crime actually but yes, I know all about conspiracy bud and I didn’t plan anything and I was charged with conspiracy to …… when I was 19 years old because of some thing, my friend was doing, so not only do I have personal literal life experience with this my grandfather was also a criminal lawyer, a damn good one at that in Boston and had his own law firm, and his best friend who was also my godfather with the attorney general of the state of Massachusetts from 1975 to 79

@@brambigdeli5021 if someone steals classified government documents and gives them to a journalist and the journalist then decides to publish them. Is the journalist guilty of conspiracy?
Gee if only we had a supreme court case on this very issue. Oh wait we do! It's called New York times Co vs Sullivan where the court ruled that the government could not only not criminally punish the journalist for publishing the illegal information, but the court also denied them an injunction to get the information taken down. You can still go read the Pentagon papers to this very day, and it's not a conspiracy.
The film maker here is doing journalism, maybe it's ethically dubious journalism. But it is 100% constitutionally protected. It's total nonsense to claim that its illegal to teach someone how to do illegal things, you can literally buy books on Amazon that will teach you how to hack computers, buying one of these books does not mean that you are guilty of conspiracy to commit a cyber crime. Bruce is wrong on this and so are you. The video shows nowhere that the guy did anything to help him commit the crimes, and that's a necessary element of a conspiracy charge.
They literally have entire reality TV shows, where they follow real drug dealers/mules around, and interview them and show what they do everyday, claiming that it's conspiracy is totally assinine, go read the elements required for a conspiracy charge and explain to me how the video maker fulfills those elements (he doesn't)
For Gods sake, journalists literally go and interview terrorists, they sure as hell can talk to a scammer and film what he's doing

They need to televise his trial.
What we need to do is like they’ve done in Europe for at least the past 20 years and make every credit card accompanied by a manual PIN, which is decoupled from the card. This way, even if someone can skim a card, they still need the PIN.
The fact is our banks are too cheap to invest in such a system and customers too lazy to take the extra time and effort.
