Calling scammers by their real names
This guy is really giving it to the bastards. Crooks versus someone who's really on the ball and who is determined to stand up for those who've been taken. Most satisfying.

What he has is a very particular set of skills, skills he has acquired over a very long career, skills that make him a nightmare for people like that. Wink

We need a way to reach out through the internet and choke these people. Seriously. And why didnt this guy wipe his computer or put a nasty ass virus on it. I know, I know...

What is interesting is the guy doesnt listen to him when he tells him that he "uses the computer to track down scammers"

What a great guy, loved it.

Later, "ok Shanlamo you dont have to give me your name"

I wish I had ninja computer skills like that. The guy is a virtual superhero. Must be incredibly satisfying.

Very interesting, but I wish he could empty their bank account into a victims fund, for starters.

That guy had a four part video about inside a scam call center. Fascinating stuff and he definitely has some real talents.

would love to have those computer skills, draining their bank accounts would be so fun.

He has skills for sure, I don't see how he can be so calm with the scammers.

His video's are great and can't thank him enough for what he does. Another one, ScammerRevolt (I believe that is the correct youtuber) will generally syskey the scammers computer too which locks them out. Can't help but to laugh when a scammer starts raging after they figure out what's up.

A few years ago I watched video where the good guy had actually gotten the scammer to run some commands on his own computer, effectively locking him out of it. The scammer was so distraught he was panicking, crying that it wasn't his computer and that his boss was going to fire him. He was pleading with the good guy to let him off. It was fall-out-of-your-chair funny!




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

nearly every day I get an email from someone that wants to 'fix' my credit card or other account. Assholes.

That was funny as hell.
Can anyone explan in plain English how the guy is able to track the scammers and see their computers?
