When I lived in France I had a scammer try to call me about my computer. He became very frustrated when I pretended I couldn’t speak French well and he hung up on me.
I would fluently speak French for a solid 10 minutes or so so the scammer knows I can speak French and then purposely speak incredibly broken French with sometimes a stereotypical ''Wee Wee Baquette'' to piss the scammer off.
Of his experience. Meaning scammers targeting English speaking countries. An Indian wouldn't try to scam a french speaker and a Tunisian would never try to scam an english speaker generally speaking because of their history and language. India is so big in english scamming because their informal economy is almost as big if not bigger than their formal economy
@@oranamusementclub8838 Kinda. From my experience of over 20+ calls which I've answered, all were from an Indian. I live in The Netherlands, not a English native country. Nonetheless, it is pretty much a common occurrence for if someone tries to e-scam you, that it's most likely to be an indian.

For the French case, it's rather surprising, the scammer has a perfect French accent. Rarely, even large french companies with call centers in Tunisia have staff who speak French as well.
His accent sounded a little bit African for certain words, a little bit Asian/Indian at parts. Overall it definitely didn't sound Ukrainian or Russian though.
@@fonfon575 I immediately guessed he was Ukrainian. He's trying to hide the accent, but intonations, word use and sentence structure is an immediate giveaway.
@@kinghans6266 its because for some time IT and programing careers in India were advertised as secure employment so a ton of people studied that only to find themselfs in an overpopulated wage market and ended turning to crime as a way to give use to their education
@@felipedaiber2991 Not just that but most Indians that are good at it, end up leaving India which leads to lower quality work in India itself. Similar happened in my parent's country (Pakistan) with medical professionals, but that's somewhat rectified itself now. Most Pakistanis in that field end up going to the UK, largely because the medical education is basically the same across the commonwealth. It's quite a bit easier for commonwealth citizens to migrate to the UK for health based work. Most Indians that are good at IT, end up coming to the UK or the US. I live with a guy who's a senior UX developer. He's on a lot of money. He's actually from India itself as opposed to being British Indian. Then there's me, a British Pakistani guy who's working in IT too, albeit doing networking instead.
If people believe guy with indian accent that named himself leon Kennedy and want to help clean virus then no scammer can recognise his voice or doesnt even pay attention even when he calls
Idk but my mom got call from Microsoft about a refund... She said she has Linux and they didn't know what it was... she tried to explain that it's OS and he didn't get it, being at work she didn't have time and just hung up on him... So maybe they would try to connect to it? :D
So your the a**hole in front of me, slamming the brakes and swirl to the right..luckily i was getting the notification too. I’m still standing on the freeway tho, seeing the cars behind me, i think everyone was getting the notification at the same time
I think a big reason why not as many are from other countries is because most first world countries dont take scam centers like this, and crack down as soon as they pop up. In India it depends on the District, in some they act as fast, but in others they dont care at all.
I just get a call from a Scammer 5 min ago and I think they begin to be crazy :p I'm french native speaker (from belgium) but I can also speak dutch, english and I begin to learn spanish. First time I get a call in english and I pretended to not be able to speak english so I said "je ne comprend pas, désolé,..." in french. The scammer had an indian accent? Then 2 weeks later I got a call from a french speaker scammer ( I saw +33 number on my landline) and a woman that spoke french but with an accent from morroco or tunisia. I answered her in dutch. After 20 sec, she cutted the line. Then some days later I got a call from +597 number and it was in dutch. In belgium we speak dutch and i can recognize the dutch accent from belgium or the netherland but it was different here, +597 is Suriname. I spoke a little bit in spanish and again, line cutted and just 5 min ago, a call from a +34.... Could it be possible that many scammer all around the world work together and send data to others depending the language of their victim ?
The difference in French is that the scammers speak perfect French with a typical French accent unlike in English where the scammers have thick Indian accents.
Yes but call a technical support line of any well known company chances are you might get someone like that,they don't really need to work on it if that's what people are accustomed to
That was good French, but French people could tell that the speaker was from North Africa, and some French people could even tell the difference between Tunisian, Moroccan, and Algerian accents in French.
@420 cats are in my basement It was a Tunisian and I am Tunisian. Yes these acts are shameful, but scammers come from literally all parts of the world. Go watch IRLrosie, she phone calls American scammers from America.

they're mostly from Maharashtra or any poor state. Incredible poverty there, Indian government should look into this kind of problem. Edit: I'm not making excuses, these are real problems because poor people there barely get paid from work to eat for a day and they can't afford good education to get jobs at higher position.

I’ve always hated the remote access feature. The only time I’ve ever allowed it to happen was during a specific exam for college during this pandemic, that the exam proctor had to input his own login credentials to the exam site. That’s the only time I ever accept it, because I know they’re not installing something on my computer or taking information. Every other time I’m asked to give remote access, I decline and demand they just tell me what they’re looking for, and proceed from there.
Well, I mean, maybe what he was trying to say is that it is obvious for anyone that knows even a little bit about pcs and softwares in general so if he doesn't mentions it, it's not because he doesn't know it's fake, but just because he's not honest. So it couod be a similar meaning to what you say.
I love listening to Jim's voice narrating the stories in these videos. Always makes me feel like I'm listening to Liam Neeson talking about his particular set of skills. Scammer catching skills.

I'd assume, that in France, most of the scams come from poorer French speaking areas. India has a high amount of tech scammers in English because alot of people speak English there, also the high population.
India also has the infrastructure and a large, legitimate, call centre industry taking out-sourced technical/customer support calls from major UK and North American companies, hardly surprising some rogues try to cash in on that.
@@1wolfcubb J was talking about the Indian scammer number compardd to legitimate call centre employees in India, rather than the percentage of scammers you hear with Indian accents.
@@2lefThumbs The total population is not immune to being responsible for the 95% of scammers (criminal activity) happening inside their country. This is not a bunch of rogues. It is a nation of people making no effort to stop or prevent criminal organizations.
Yeah well in Tech support scams I think India is the winner, and in hacking scams I just don't have an idea, well russia probably, i've heard about many cases..
Same here in Denmark with Danish scammers... They'll typically insist you stay on the phone with them and say that the "offer expires" if I hang up. They'll refer to a website and reviews that look very fake, either looking like they were all written by the same person or couple of people (same grammar mistakes over and over throughout the reviews or a repeated misspelling), or the accounts themselves were created the same day the review was written. They're also extremely eager (of course) and pretty short-tempered. They'll sound all fake-happy and laugh at anything you say, but the slightest question on your part and they'll get real defensive real fast. At this point, I just don't answer my phone if I don't know the number. At all.

About a decade ago , India had a lot of contracted out western Call centers , when they moved mostly to Mexico , Philipines , than many had learned a trick or 2 and then some made use of those learned tricks and which perhaps explain most or many English language scammmers are from India . However the Accent or forced fake accents ought to be give away . Even the Westerm names they give themselves dont jive. Sure there are more scammers from India. But not limited to . Philipines , is perhaps next. China is more popular for Chinese language scams that work from myanmar , Thailand and less likely Malaysia
I don't think he thinks he's scamming. He thinks they're providing a service. He didn't install viruses but he wanted to make a sale. I wanted to know how this had ended though.
I like how this guy doesn't just straight up go to the scammer and tell them that they know they're a scammer and slowly makes the scammer prove it themself

The French speaking one is quite natural, native French with a slight North African accent. I have a French mobile and quite often get call spam from that region.
Guess why, lol. Some photos of Indian call centres seem to show well over 100 people in one very large room. The industry is huge, but the question remains on how long it will last
One year from now when I first watched this I didn't understand anything at all at the first one in French and now that the vid it's back I'm glad to watch it again to understand clearly how some trash sounds. These are lifeless people and I don't just understand it but I realize also that the scammer it's not French accent, this is African French-speaking, maybe Morocco, Algeria or Tunisia.

They advertise themselves as an IT product company that sales legitimate software i even have a couple of people that I know that worked there they always say that they “sell” their software by just simply doing standard cold calling, but never go into details on how the company works. Seems that it’s a cover up story to run their illegal scam operations.

It felt like "yeah I want to scam this guy but I also want to teach him something"

Definitely sounded like someone who at least has or at some time had a genuine interest in computers and then resorted to scamming people.
I don’t have empathy, he’s was still in character and his mind wandered and wondered why the page was open to begin with, it was his own arrogance that he didn’t think twice. Maybe not as bad as some but still crosses the line when you take advantage of ppl.

Then 2 weeks later I got a call from a french speaker scammer ( I saw +33 number on my landline) and a woman that spoke french but with an accent from morroco or tunisia. I answered her in dutch. After 20 sec, she cutted the line. Then some days later I got a call from +597 number and it was in dutch. In belgium we speak dutch and i can recognize the dutch accent from belgium or the netherland but it was different here, +597 is Suriname. I spoke a little bit in spanish and again, line cutted and just 5 min ago, a call from a +34....

Same here in Denmark with Danish scammers... They'll typically insist you stay on the phone with them and say that the "offer expires" if I hang up. They'll refer to a website and reviews that look very fake, either looking like they were all written by the same person or couple of people (same grammar mistakes over and over throughout the reviews or a repeated misspelling), or the accounts themselves were created the same day the review was written. They're also extremely eager (of course) and pretty short-tempered.

My French ISP should contract with the Tunisian scammer, I could understand every single word she said. Can't say the same about their legit tech support ...
Yeah tunisians in general are the best fluent French speakers in the world
not sure why you are expecting someone from a Francophone country to be difficult to understand?
@@ggxhard4987 yeah probably because its their native language
This dude speaks French too??? Is there anything he can’t do!
He can’t fly to Alpha Centauri... Yet...
@@501ststormtrooper9 Considering you didnt say Sol does that mean he flew to our sun...
i think he had a translator
I think he used google translate
Nah guys google translate isnt that accurate 😌👌
There is a tanslation mistake: "Installé par defaut" mean "Installed by default" not "Installed in error" 2:38
But great work, people need to be aware and those scammers need to be shut down.
Jim: not all scammers are from India
My ears: a blessing from the lord!
only 95% of them LMAOO
The French speaking one is quite natural, native French with a slight North African accent. I have a French mobile and quite often get call spam from that region.
Yeahhh i swear now I won’t have any regrets hanging off to them in seconds
@Bogdy Yo It is from north Africa my guy
I’m from North Africa
She sounds North African 100%
She's tunisian
Indeed she had almost no accent.
5:57 "Hi, eh..my name's Brendon" Jim is a master of disguise
i like it how in the background it sounds like there is like 200 people talking at once
Guess why, lol. Some photos of Indian call centres seem to show well over 100 people in one very large room. The industry is huge, but the question remains on how long it will last
One year from now when I first watched this I didn't understand anything at all at the first one in French and now that the vid it's back I'm glad to watch it again to understand clearly how some trash sounds. These are lifeless people and I don't just understand it but I realize also that the scammer it's not French accent, this is African French-speaking, maybe Morocco, Algeria or Tunisia. Big respect and huge love Jimm ! Keep up and never stop being wonderfully amazing!
I was at 2 minutes and something when I wrote this about the origin of the accent and now at 3:55 when he confirmed the location of IP I feel so proud of how much I have been able to learn in less than 2 years!
"not all from india"
"95 percent are from india"
I don't believe this. You are still crying and begging him to say most are from India
Yes, only 95% from India 😅😅
@@JythanONG he already said this himself when he said 5% are not india
India has the most scammers, I am ashamed to be an Indian
Muks it’s the damn useless government which doesn’t even care. In the USA these scams would be shit down quick. In India the government supports them. Sad
"Someone else put it on the computer for me. I know very little about computers"
immediately shows the Wireshark window outside of the scammers view.
that made me chuckle
New Jim Browning!
BEST DAY EVER!!!
Yeah. Was a nice video. Thanks, Jim.
An old "friend" tried to scam me a few days ago. I realised in time though, how can I get Jim's help to find out exactly how many people are involved?
9:56 "woman starts moaning on the background." LMAO
Tf was that actually
Tf
wtf lmao
Wtf
That was the scammer's wife getting railed by Jim because he already tracked their address and went out on 2 dinners with her all the while being on the phone with the scammer.
French sounds like they’re saying one word, but in many different ways
Yes
That Ukrainian’s English is very good. He could use his multilingual knowledge to better use rather than scamming.
It struck me too that his English was better than could have reasonably been expected.
Less than 10% speak English in Ukraine. He could have been a teacher or something like that.
Communist
Did you know that multilingual skills can be used in the FBI to fight Mafia and other crimes?
Ukraine is a very poor country. Per capita its GDP is 128th in the world. Even with superb English knowledge he's unlikely to get a goo job. The only options are:
A) Leave the country
B) Look for 'unsavoury' work
"And in over 60 cases I have recorded, only around 5%..."
Me: -Oh that's actually quite low, if only 5% are from india, then there must be quite a lot of misrepresentation or bias righ--
_"WON'T be from India"_
Oh.
"You have a pirated avast" Like you have prob 100 pirated apps
Avast is free tho
Did you notice his freaking OS is pirated. I don't understand why Microsoft doesn't just make the OS not work at all until you purchase a license.
@@lancia-037 avast is legit right. I got it on my desktop but I don't remember downloading it and it always keeps prompting me activate and I just ignore, since I already use another software
Avast! Ye Pirate!
@@RikXtreme4 I run the free version of Avast along with Malbytes. Seems to do a good job of keeping me clean.
8:36 had to do a double take here, sounded like he said "let's run the scam"
"Not all tech scammers are in India!" - indeed, by my experience, and judging by accent, a couple of them hailed from Scotland.
Lmfao I'm a Tunisian and I can see how funny it is that you zoomed so hard to get to it 😂

As a Ukrainian I bring my apologies for those scumbags.
You’re findings kind of shocked me that we have those scam operations here as well. Furthermore Zoom Support is a well know company here in the Western part of Ukrainian. They usually hire students that are willing to get a side job and know English.
They advertise themselves as an IT product company that sales legitimate software i even have a couple of people that I know that worked there they always say that they “sell” their software by just simply doing standard cold calling, but never go into details on how the company works.
Seems that it’s a cover up story to run their illegal scam operations.
This guy definitely is not from Ukraine. No one speaks with such accent.
L.U. We actually do. Most of the world has this stereotype of the slav English accent that sounds like some Boris from a russia mafia movie. Ukrainians have their own rich phonetical language that helps us adept to languages like English, Italian, French relatively easy.
Max J. are u sad u dont have crimea
Ken M big sad 😞
This was one of the rare moments that I was ashamed to be Slav.
Thank you for being the person you are. Thank you for caring for others and doing good. Thank you for making many people happy. Thank you for doing the right thing. Thank you for fighting. Thank you for not giving up. Thank you for working hard. Thank you for all the hard work you do, many hours you spend not only editing videos but declaring and pursuing war on scammers. You made my day, week and month thats for sure.
Sadly the US Government does not do 0.3 percent of what you do and you can bet your life savings that they are subbed and are listening to everything you upload. I am sure they will try to get some credit somehow by using something you uncovered. Thats just the way it is. Without you and the many other Scam baiting channels especially our elderly more vulnerable people would get robbed left and right. I know it still happens and not everyone knwos yet but the amount of people that watched your video and shared it made a difference and I am so thankful for that. You are the definition of a hero. You are saving others from harm and you love doing it.
Subbed shared and liked. Thank you!
One day I'd like to mess with a scammer just to confuse them with the sheer chaos my computer is.
Imagine being Indian, having thick indian accent and wanted to work as microsoft technical support team, I feel bad for them
thats what i always thought lol
Them: "You also have Avast anti-virus which has been pirated."
Me: "Wait... isn't Avast free to download and use?"
that's one of the signs that they are scammers xd
i mean to be fair there is a premium subscription for avast where you get cool bonuses but nobody with a fully functioning brain actually needs to use those
@@loquita-lostwave how are they cool bonuses yet you need to be dysfunctional to need them
@@RAiNfORAiNbOW I think that might be an exaggeration. I have the free version, and some of the features Premium is supposed to have seem like they might be useful. However, that is overshadowed by its use of scary language, which could make old and inexperienced people think they need to buy it ASAP.
Though I am certainly no judge, I think that some Antivirus programs could be called scams themselves in this regard.
These scammers are mostly from delhi, kolkata and Gurgaon Haryana. Some of them work in Paytm and steel users contact and data and quit their job and start scamming them. They already have users contact and info this becomes very easy to scam. These jobless people needs to be punished hard for scammers innocent civilians. So that others don't dare to scam.

"While he is on my virtual, I log into his computer" "My keyshark is always running" you are a scary person Jim, how effortless you get into these guys computers and run around. It's amazing actually
He should call them back with their personal info. That'd be a nice surprise to the scammer!
He should discretely copy a photo of the scammer onto the virtual desktop with the guy's name as the filename
3:56 the scammers from Tunisia were smart enough to pick that woman to make the calls, she has barely any foreign french accent. That’s very important because we never take people with heavy accents seriously.
