Yep that’s it.

That's all good.
But this guy is the all-time king of thems who fuck with scammers and just ruin their day:



He may have driven some of them to contemplate suicide ...

I’d rather a robot got on and did it, than some bloke DYING to crow, self-righteously about what he’s done. Let the robot do it. YouTube is a magnet for smug people who assume they’re somehow “saving the world”. Sheesh. 🙄  (Mark Rober springs to mind… ugh).

Well, there's plenty of room there for both approaches. I love how committed this guy is to personally fucking with those scumbags. And bots can probably cover more scammer time more efficiently. It's all good!

DO NOT REDEEM! DO NOT REDEEM!



I love this guy.  He also writes a lot of tools to mess with scammers like fake bank accounts.

One thing that people seem pretty ignorant of, is that a lot of these people are FORCED to do these “jobs” with threats of violence, or through sheer desperation. You can often hear the desperation in their voices. Yes they’re doing wrong, but how dare ANYONE refer to someone as a “scum bag” without a deep knowledge of their environment and circumstances.

All very well to cast aspersions from the comfort of a safe environment in a far off land. Modern slavery is calling you at home, have some compassion, and step down from the easy high horse.

Sorry, I'm fresh out of compassion for these motherfuckers.
They know damn well what they're doing, and I don't see anyone holding a gun to their heads.

Bollocks.  Sorry.  But, scammers are paid money to do their "job".  Yes, they don't make huge money, but a tech support scammer working from a call centre in India will take home a greater than average salary plus they receive commissions from successful scams.  The myth that these guys are anything other than scumbags seems to be spread by the scammers themselves, it doesn't make sense. 

That said, the phone scammers are making maybe 5-10% of the money, the boss takes the rest.  The bosses are able to remain immune for quite some time because they either bribe the local police or have government connections.

That's the way the cookie crumbles in those countries I'm afraid. Two wrongs don't make a right. They might be nice people in an unfortunate situation, but at the end of the day, they are committing ethically corrupt, criminal acts. To me, that makes you scum. Western countries should not be supporting a criminal enterprise.

Not entirely a myth.



Also @ 3:50 Mark Rober glitter bombs a victim, in this case the victim unknowingly allows his AirBnB to be used as the true scammer's parcel drop address.



But I agree that your average "Indian call centre" is filled with willing participants, not victims.

Shheeiiitt !  That ROSIE even making me irritated!   Siri, put Rosie on my 'heart' list.

   Siri,...    Rosie does it better.
