Probably some considerations with respect to the viewers. Many people are scared of spiders and of those, quite a lot of people can’t even stand to see them on pictures or videos. I am one of those people, spiders would have ruined the video for me.
Maybe, but the spiders are creatures too, as are the cockroaches. They would be sent to their deaths, stuck in their box before being released and crushed.
I'm from India and I can confirm we all hate scams and scammers just as much. Thank you Mark for going through with such risky operations. There's still a long way to go but we'll defeat them together.
I've heard that they're extremely common in india thanks to schooling systems that give people degrees in IT but a very small market that actually utilizes IT experts.
I agree. We should get all those scammers and then amputate them - make them limbless - and film them and turn them into NFTs so we can reimburse the victims.
It’s crazy to see you go from getting revenge on porch package thieves, to giving international scammers what they deserve within just a few years, kudos to you and thank you for what you are doing!

The fact that a TH-camr got this far, almost all on his own, just proves that if the government really wanted to take these scammers down, they absolutely could. This all tells me that government is more than likely benefiting in some way from these scammers.

Shameful that someone from a different country has to solve the issues that the countries government could never. I am really, really grateful to you Mark.

My mom almost fell victim to one of these "payment error" scams. After hanging up the phone for her, I showed her the last scammer video to help her understand what was going on. Can't wait to show her this next part of the series. Thanks Mark!
My mom got caught by one too. She was upset and tired and on her cellphone, and ended up giving them her credit card information. Luckily she called me immediately afterwards and told me about it, because after she hung up with them she started getting suspicious.

Yeah I don’t think people realize how terrible of a crime this is. A lot of these victims don’t really have this kind of money to spare. They’re being scammed out of food, rent, medicine. These are people who are vulnerable and they’re being scammed out of money they need to survive.

Yep it's no joke. People even got killt because of illegal SAND extraction (sand for concrete). If enough money is in the play the really bad guys show up
As someone who lives in kolkata, I want to assure you mark, I will do everything in my capacity to put out the word and get these bastards behind bar. Excellent work with the investigation.
I live in Kolkata infact I know these scammers main location is park Street area , salt lake area. Main problem is that the local police are also a part of these scammers and they help them with it
@BunsGlazing yep. The owners of these companies are so wealthy that they can buy off the local police. That’s another problem with wealth inequality. When a select few are so wealthy that they can use their exorbitant wealth to bend the rules of society in their favor. It’s honestly just sad. I don’t know what the answer is.
As a resident of Kolkata, it's shameful to see the "City of Joy" housing such criminals who destroy lives of millions across the world and It's equally disheartening to hear about the apathy of the local administration regarding the matter. Thanks mark for calling out the culprits. Let's hope that this video reaches some influencial people following which we might see some corrective actions being taken.
The scammers own your police department. Call for change at your local level and help hold the criminals accountable, including the corrupt police officers that help them.
@@t.m.o2897 Then don't be afraid to escalate - if local is compromised, seek state help, and if state is compromised, seek national help. Sooner or later you'll find the people who understand that organized crime is not the path to the future for any country, and especially one as large as India, and it's in everyone's best interests except the criminals' to eliminate corruption.
@@t.m.o2897 Nah.. All these scammers are mostly from Kolkata & Gurgaon only. You won't find them in other states. It's state incompetency. They know how to evade police.
Hearing the death threats just made my heart just SINK. Gladly that the guys from Trilogy Media and then the guys who worked undercover didn't get hurt in the process though.
I had to stop and pause for a second. Of course (or rather hopefully) this video wouldn't be uploaded with such an upbeat tone if someone got hurt, but...gosh that was scary.
It's all fun and games but honestly the fact that they were able to shut down one of the call centers is probably the most satisfying part in this video.
It's too bad that they didn't have enough crews of people who were able to go to each building at the same time and hit them all at once? This way they couldn't warn each other because they all would be under attack at the same time.
@@Lyxtra Sooner or later they will re-open at other addresses under different names. But if the individuals are named and shamed, that lasts a lot longer, public reputation is important to these people.
I got one of these calls from " IRS"...At the time I WAS A FEDERAL AGENT...😂 They said they were going to send the State Police to arrest me..I told them we didn't use local PD. for fed warrant
My mother got hit by this. They even got her to let them on her computer to "fix" their mistake. Her innocence breaks my heart. I do not know how to protect her, but I will share this with her and everyone else I know.
You do not know how to protect her? You tell her to not trust RANDOM strangers that call her talking about money for something she was never involved in, it’s not hard dude lol.
Moms, grandmoms. Being that don't understand tech need someone to help them. Have her email or send you or someone else anything financial related, or anything that Is tech related. Plus get programs to protect you from those emails.
You guys are making the world a better place little by little by serving these people some justice. Though never in my life would I have thought I’d consider some roaches as martyrs.
the fact that they actually risked their lives for this is wild! massive props for standing up to these organisations, even if it is in petty ways like pranks.
It's even crazier the reformed scammers that were willing to help even though they live in the area and could stay in danger. Just shows how bad they feel about what they did and anyone can change.
I always take their calls and play along for as long as possible. They longer they're wasting time with me, the less time they have to take advantage of an innocent senior. These guys deserve life in prison or worse.
@Karl with a K I used present-tense since they’re still working on taking the org down. It’s ongoing. I’m sorry that your life must be so boring that you felt the need to comment like this. Hope you get happier soon, Karl.
Those voice calls are brutal to listen to, putting a loved one into one of those situations breaks my heart. Thank you for standing up for all the 65+ year olds getting scammed.
Thanks for doing this. Anyone willing to go after the elderly, the mentally ill, and the TERMINALLY ILL are the lowest of the low. That's a level of sociopathy I wouldn't have thought possible on a scale like this. Then again, look at the surveillance agencies.
That's why I don't even consider those blanks (I call them that because there's no word in any language that can quantify how vile and wretched they are) to be in the same species as us. Now they even target the lonely and the unemployed.
I wasted a almost an hour of a scammer’s time pretending to be a mother whose child just died. They were so heartless they wanted to take my money anyways.
Because if they said they make $60k a month and paying their employees $7k a month and looking at the video they probably had 100s lol that's impossible. I think he probably meant INR 7k
@@noneB974 $60K per DAY. If you pause at 15:45, their monthly target is 1.8 million. even if they had 100 workers, with a third of them works as closer that earned twice the amount ($15k instead of $7k), that's "only" about 1 million dollar in salary expense. Take another $500k for infrastructure expense and bribes to authority, the boss still walk home with $300k per month.
@@noneB974 Those salaries are definitely in ruppes, not USD. There's a video on Karl Rock's channel, shot covertly his friend, posing as job seeker, interested in working at one of those centres. He was offered 9.000 rupees a month during his trial, rising to 10k after a few months. Bonuses however were very generous, for example 3 successful scams a month would double his salary (18k)
We love you for this Mark, idk how many times they def caught me slacking but hey we're only human. KEEP EM COMING, THEY'RE STILL OUT THERE AND ITS ONLY GETTING WORSE...!
They've gotten to the elderly folks in my family more than once. Luckily, they always know not to pay anything but these scammers get into the computer systems to lock it down so quickly and smoothly it's ridiculous. They're like cockroaches themselves. You crush a few and they keep coming back up. Keep at it Mark!
My tip as an IT professional: Get a BIIIG USB stick, set up your PC excatly how you want it and save a backup on there. If you're willing to pay for a program, I'd suggest buying a license for Acronis. That tactic saved my PC at least once. And another upside is that if you change your system drive, you can continue just like nothing happened. Took less than an hour of downtime for me. I don't remember what my Acronis license cost me but I spent about 70 bucks on a 512GB USB stick which is TOTALLY overkill if you're really just using it as a backup. 128GB should be more than enough but I wanted to save my ENTIRE OS on it and 70€ isn't that much I think =)
It's sad that there are people doing this for a living, my mom was scammed and lost $30,000 from her savings. Seeing her so stressed and devastated for a few months really makes me angry about these scammers.
You really think these little pranks they did to spesutia anything they're still getting away with it in all the information they already had is still in their hands they did nothing
I just had one of these scammers try to trap me into one of their bs scams. Dude claimed to be from SSA (Social Security Administration) and was claiming I was scammed and needed to send money to fix the problem. I barely got past the “I am here to help you” part before I hung up faster then the Flash. You and everyone who are helping to get some revenge on these scammers are amazing and I fully support your cause, just be careful.
Sometimes you’ve got to fight the bully on his own turf. Please share this video and let's get these 3 scam call centers shut down for good.

800k?! That's a huge amount, I hope you all are okay now
They aren’t. You can’t ever recover from losing that amount of money
probably 800k rupee
@@codingwithflavio8534 what makes you say “probably?”
@@codingwithflavio8534 even if it is, thats still 10,000USD, thats still a massive amount
It breaks my heart hearing the victims when they say they don't understand what's going on :( It reminds me of my parents who can barely use their emails. Thanks for doing this!
fr, i'm so sad
this is why we should preach people that stop the scams
I had to take away my mom's access to the internet years ago due to her losing nearly all her life savings to scammers like this.
it's heartbreaking
Yeah I don’t think people realize how terrible of a crime this is. A lot of these victims don’t really have this kind of money to spare. They’re being scammed out of food, rent, medicine. These are people who are vulnerable and they’re being scammed out of money they need to survive.

I live in Kolkata infact I know these scammers main location is park Street area , salt lake area.
Main problem is that the local police are also a part of these scammers and they help them with it
@@mdkaif8933 🙃🙃🙃 i wanna cry
@BunsGlazing yep. The owners of these companies are so wealthy that they can buy off the local police. That’s another problem with wealth inequality. When a select few are so wealthy that they can use their exorbitant wealth to bend the rules of society in their favor. It’s honestly just sad. I don’t know what the answer is.
@BunsGlazing true
@@mdkaif8933 same
As a resident of Kolkata, it's shameful to see the "City of Joy" housing such criminals who destroy lives of millions across the world and It's equally disheartening to hear about the apathy of the local administration regarding the matter.
Thanks mark for calling out the culprits. Let's hope that this video reaches some influencial people following which we might see some corrective actions being taken.
The scammers own your police department. Call for change at your local level and help hold the criminals accountable, including the corrupt police officers that help them.

So true I agree

I had to stop and pause for a second. Of course (or rather hopefully) this video wouldn't be uploaded with such an upbeat tone if someone got hurt, but...gosh that was scary.

This guy is awesome, I’ve watched most of his videos but never in my life did I think he would end up doing this!! It’s awesome!
Next he's gonna use a gun like Batman. The BATGUN.
fr ong
Don't forget Jim Browning who's been doing this for years
There are others as well.
It's all fun and games but honestly the fact that they were able to shut down one of the call centers is probably the most satisfying part in this video.
It's too bad that they didn't have enough crews of people who were able to go to each building at the same time and hit them all at once? This way they couldn't warn each other because they all would be under attack at the same time.
All 3 are completely shut down now
@@Lyxtra U have a source link or vid proving they were actually shut down?
@@Lyxtra Sooner or later they will re-open at other addresses under different names. But if the individuals are named and shamed, that lasts a lot longer, public reputation is important to these people.
@@Moa_Smug Did he say he had one?
I got one of these calls from " IRS"...At the time I WAS A FEDERAL AGENT...😂 They said they were going to send the State Police to arrest me..I told them we didn't use local PD. for fed warrant
My mother got hit by this. They even got her to let them on her computer to "fix" their mistake. Her innocence breaks my heart. I do not know how to protect her, but I will share this with her and everyone else I know.
My mom is kinda the same. I call her every month or two and update her on any scams that i've had and tell her about ones i've seen online.
@@TheAdjuster1 After 10 years of being relentlessly, cynically brutal with my mother, I have burned it in to her brain to believe all calls are scams.
You do not know how to protect her? You tell her to not trust RANDOM strangers that call her talking about money for something she was never involved in, it’s not hard dude lol.
I'm so sorry to hear that, I can only imagine the anger I would feel were I in that situation.
Moms, grandmoms. Being that don't understand tech need someone to help them. Have her email or send you or someone else anything financial related, or anything that Is tech related. Plus get programs to protect you from those emails.
Huge respect to everyone who was a part of this for basically risking their lives to get these S.O.B scammers shut down

It's even crazier the reformed scammers that were willing to help even though they live in the area and could stay in danger. Just shows how bad they feel about what they did and anyone can change.
They don't fear law thats why they are ready for the risk. Cyber crime laws are very weak in india.

@@lily-_- I think it was kinda like a debate with this screaming guy in between controlling the debaters.
The fact that scammers have a better salary than the software developers at the companies they pretend to work for genuinely pisses me off.
Uh it's just rupees 12k per month.... 155 USD around
Because if they said they make $60k a month and paying their employees $7k a month and looking at the video they probably had 100s lol that's impossible. I think he probably meant INR 7k
Me too!!
@@noneB974 $60K per DAY. If you pause at 15:45, their monthly target is 1.8 million.
even if they had 100 workers, with a third of them works as closer that earned twice the amount ($15k instead of $7k), that's "only" about 1 million dollar in salary expense. Take another $500k for infrastructure expense and bribes to authority, the boss still walk home with $300k per month.
@@noneB974 Those salaries are definitely in ruppes, not USD. There's a video on Karl Rock's channel, shot covertly his friend, posing as job seeker, interested in working at one of those centres. He was offered 9.000 rupees a month during his trial, rising to 10k after a few months. Bonuses however were very generous, for example 3 successful scams a month would double his salary (18k)

@MarkRober - You are awesome ! I just discovered you on TH-cam. Please keep these videos coming.
They've gotten to the elderly folks in my family more than once. Luckily, they always know not to pay anything but these scammers get into the computer systems to lock it down so quickly and smoothly it's ridiculous. They're like cockroaches themselves. You crush a few and they keep coming back up. Keep at it Mark!
@Que? they usually team viewer into the victims pc and syskey it
My tip as an IT professional: Get a BIIIG USB stick, set up your PC excatly how you want it and save a backup on there. If you're willing to pay for a program, I'd suggest buying a license for Acronis.
That tactic saved my PC at least once. And another upside is that if you change your system drive, you can continue just like nothing happened. Took less than an hour of downtime for me.
I don't remember what my Acronis license cost me but I spent about 70 bucks on a 512GB USB stick which is TOTALLY overkill if you're really just using it as a backup. 128GB should be more than enough but I wanted to save my ENTIRE OS on it and 70€ isn't that much I think =)
It was definitely a team view / syskey setup. It was an elderly person on a spare Surface Pro 2 so nothing important. I just wiped and reinstalled.
These people put their safety aside in order to stop these scammers. mad respect
Well, to mildly annoy them at least
