"I haven't been to India" he says in the thickest indian accent you can imagine, surrounded by other Indians speaking in Hindi. You have to admire their commitment to the act.
I work at a grocery store in California, an elder women was on her phone and asked me where the gift cards were!!! Being a long time subscriber of this channel I immediately went into action!! I took the phone and asked who is this, of course they hung up. I explained what had happened to the older lady and she was in tears and very thankful as she realized she had almost been scammed! She promised to hang up on them if they called back.
They're guided by SATAN!! He takes away their concei nce and respect of all people for $$!!! They will get their Just Rewards when they stand Before JESUS CHRIST AMEN!!
Every single one of these scammers is a sociopath. Empty of guilt, empty of regret, empty of conscience. It really is a shame that we have to share this world with people who don't deserve to live in it.
@@Peerocka No. They ARE people. And that's the problem. PEOPLE are capable of this. He apologized for losing his cool because it was unprofessional. But he's not apologizing for being angry at them. And that's the difference.
You should never be apologetic about how you talk to them. They know exactly what they are doing to these people. You guys are doing an amazing job! Keep it up!
@@koffiarizamoto9326 So far, I only know a couple of words/phrases in Hindi, but I learned one of them from Pierogi, and I use it to good effect. The other one is a rather nasty word that I've never heard Pierogi use. I'm saving that one as a kind of "nuclear option."
This was so dumb to admit that it was him hacking and not somebody in their office, because it would do much more damage if they believed it was someone in their office. This is an ego problem with him.
Pierogi, don’t ever apologise for “lashing out aggressively” what you’re doing is so so important for victims, viewers and everyone! You help so many people, thank you so much!
When people are too difficult to change, d3ath is the answer. Pfft as if the government wouldnt treat us the same way as well.. Like when it comes to whatever they define as treason for example. Being put in jail forever is a form of death as well. The reason they can scam is because they feel safe. Where are the deterrents?
I am from India, I appreciate the work done. I feel bad that there is no action taken by police against scammers to stop them from doing it. Police (Indian) doesnt have to go against everyone even if they arrest people from 5-10 call centres that will create fear in others...
We have an elderly Chinese friend who is single. She was a brilliant medical researcher, but totally tech UN-savvy and naive. We have been showing her your videos and warning her about the various strategies. She successfully avoided being scammed by a utility scammer a few days ago. Then she called us to report in! :D We were so proud of her! Thank YOU!!!
@Russell Bishop , It's a good idea! My aunt lives in an assisted living apartment. I got permission to show some videos and talk to the residents about being scammed online and from the phone. The NEXT DAY I got a call from the admin letting me know that I had stopped at least three residents from getting phone scammed! A week later my own aunt got the MS scam call and they tried to get her to install anydeks. 🤣 She's a bit of a smarta$$ like me and kept the guy on the phone for over an hour talking about how she didn't have any "decks" of playing cards, would UNO cards be OK? I was SO PROUD of her!
@@johnwilliams8818 I was just thinking this morning that I need to start a community program to help folks defend themselves against scammers. This is a great idea! And congratulations for making a huge difference in your community!
Thank you for getting heated. These scammers have hurt so many people especially in rural communities where there is very little support. We appreciate you and all you do. Thank you.
I love wasting scam callers time by answering their calls. I once got a scam caller who was speaking Spanish and I didn't speak Spanish. I had my friend who spoke Spanish talk to him. They went at it for a couple of hours and eventually they started cursing at each other until the scam caller hung up out of anger.
They themselves are walking their way down a firey way to hell, but they will come to a dead end for eternity. ''THE LOVE OF MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL." "VENGEANCE IS MINE," SAYS THE LORD.
@@fifamobilenesta1987 Hi ! Let’s see you said he didn’t do anything? Well let’s see: 1 Monitor call center 2 accessed thousands files 3 sent info to police 4 scared the crap out of scammers 5 put scammers on notice 6 educated people on the scams I think that just about covers it. Oh & what did u do today ?
I'm an assistant manager at a major retailer and I am definitely watching out for hints of these elderly folks getting scammed just from what I've seen on here. Thank you scammer payback for informing us all!
As an old lady myself I’m seriously glad you are educating people of any age. I tell everyone I know to follow you. I had “my electric company” give me a call not too long ago telling me service was about to be shut off in 30 minutes. They had a big explanation of how they had accidentally refunded money to my account. I kept them on the line a while messing with them, telling them about my 80 year old momma that was going to be cold soon. They ended the call I guess because I’m annoying. 😬
I worked at a gas station for a few years and an assistant GM and when I would see anyone buying a large amount of gift cards I'd always tell them if someone on the phone asked for them, it's a scam. Sometimes they'd realize they're being scammed, sometimes they were christmas presents, but every time I felt like I was doing the right thing
i was wiring money via western union (online), and they didnt complete the transaction until they spoke to me over the phone. it was legit transfer, and i appreciated the "inconvenience " .
@@CaffeinatedFrostbite True. then I'd overstep my boundary and ask over and over are you sure your are not being instructed? If i get a complaint, then I get a complaint.... no good deed....
I know you guys probably don’t read too many comments, but I just want to give you a heartfelt thank you. My dad is 80 years old and has gotten taken from a couple of scams in the past. I got him hooked on your channel because he thinks you guys are hilarious, but your videos have also taught him how to spot these scams right away, and made him understand how it works so he can warn his older friends and family too. Knowledge is empowerment. Thank you thank you. I know my dad is safer for having seen your videos.
I am sure "each and every" comment is read by the Scammer Payback Team, and posts such as your's must make their day and all the hard work and effort they put into scam baiting, really worth it 🙂 Best Wishes to you and your dad from the UK x
Sorry to hear your dad was scammed. My niece was scammed a few years ago while in college for a couple grand. I worry about my Mom also, so I keep her in the loop about everything I learn.
T-Mobile has an automatic scam-call catcher. I recommend getting it, they also have a senior plan that is decent. Also, if they are on cell phones, set the ring tone to silent, and then go through their contacts list and assign a tone to people they want or need to be in contact with. Today alone, T-Mobile stopped about 15 scam calls to my phone.
Tell your parents to get a new phone number and to not answer unknown calls, since the phone number they have now was probably sold to hundreds of call centers and thats why they keep getting called
Seriously. If it was me and they scammed my mother or grandmother, I would not be composed. I would be demanding their heads served on a silver platter!
@@DeadmanInc336 it would be kinda funny if he started saying yea jones helped us out and tell the other guy trupti helped us out It'll create chaos amongst them
Mine too but cause I hate those kinda of people hint hint they stink they talk weird and they are horrible at driving everything about them makes me sick
Thank you Pierogi for helping everyone. But for me being part of a older generation 66 years young 😊 I m so very grateful for all you and your team do for us.
Just a PSA here: The elderly are not the only ones vulnerable. My husband is NOT tech savvy at all!! I returned home from one of our kid’s baseball game to find him completely drained of color, shaking and on the verge of tears. Because he was on the phone I automatically assumed someone in our family had died. He was so shook he just handed me the phone and collapsed onto the couch. The man on the phone was in the middle of telling my husband to say goodbye to his family because the police were en route to arrest him because he didn’t have $10,000 to pay to avoid arrest. The man was telling him h would be in prison for 5 years and he was a worthless father for not paying his taxes and deserved to be locked up. (I made Perogi’s rant sound like a polite speech from a dignified head of state 😂 ) My husband was so shook he 🤮 It took weeks for him to truly believe it was a scam because he just couldn’t understand how another human being could do this to another person. It robbed him of his confidence for quite awhile which broke my heart. These scammers are so despicable. Thank you Perogi ♥️
I'm so sorry those despicable people made your husband feel that way. I hope he's doing better now, and if he watches these videos, I hope he gets some satisfaction from watching scammers get their comeuppance ❤️
@@pineapplegirl8078 ooo only asked bc they’re always threatening or scamming with a s3xual reasoning behind it like “oh CP is on your phone pay this absurd amount of money to remove it” so i thought that entrapment could only b done or would only make sense being done on or through a “corn” site
They scam cancer patients, there is nothing that will stop them besides exposing them to authorities that care enough to help and educating as many people as possible about these scumbags
@@africacarey Ngl I kinda admired the aggressiveness. If they weren't scamming they'd make decent salespeople. Sucks that they use their talents for evil.
Seeing seniors get scammed breaks my heart. I am a senior and almost got scammed but shut my computer off before they could do anything. I can’t express how much l appreciate what you do for so many of us. You are one of me heroes.
Hang in there! I’m almost a senior. Never believe any pop up. Never believe any email. Call a company directly for any questions you have if something scares you. Watch out for scam advertising when you think you have googled a site correctly. If it’s scary, or intimidating in any way, it’s a scammer. Hang in there, you’ve got this!
@@didforloveI think he just means that everyone nowadays would always point out that rhey are disabled or mentally disabled. This video is relevant though because it shows disabled old people being exploited
the terror in victim’s voices when they realise what’s happened is haunting. i’ve had to help grandparents who were scammed and the utter fear and shame is awful, it makes me feel sick. thank you for this - hopefully your channel is reaching more and more people to stop people like this
Your anger is justified. You and everyone have a right to be mad at these scamming leeches. I applaud you and anyone else (this includes you viewers who mess with them on the phone) who work hard at bringing them to justice. Keep up the awesome work !
What amazes me is how he keeps his cool and keeps the channel PG. I have a short temper, and if I were him I'd be cursing like a sailor. You're our hero, P.
As old as I am, if I lost all my savings then I wouldn't be able to afford my apartment or my car! I can see why some older people give up on life. Thank you for helping as many of us as you can 💚
I had seen a movie recently about a group of men called Bee Keepers. The beginning of it we see an elder black woman getting scammed and having a million dollars stolen from her. She had all of it stolen and she ended up committing self death. It makes me sad that this has happens IRL
Dude my blood boils when I hear these scammers running thier mouths. I don't know how you stay so calm half the time. I mean completely ruining someone's life with no remorse. Your doing a great service 👏 glad your taking the fight to them.
I subscribe to the channel but can only read the video names on the thumbnails because watching these videos will make me rage and throw my computer out the window.
I am an ex-symantec employee and I have seen hundreds of people falling prey for these ruthless scams. I am happy to see you busting them. Thank you for what you are doing
I already got calls from those call centers and i'm from Germany.. Im so happy that i saw his videos. WIth that i could handle those scammers perfectly
I doubt this guy is a hacker or even a programmer lol. It seems he's just able to operate some ready to use software to do these things. Still entertaining, though.
@@julianospald6133I don't know how to download files the way he does, I don't know how to use those controlling softwares. The fact he knows the difference in them AND beats them at their mind games is crazy and cool!
I’ve personally stopped multiple people from being scammed at my work. I work in retail and have encountered elderly people in there to buy gift cards to send to the scammers, and by watching your vids I have knowledge on how it works so I could stop it.
@@Bethgael tbf i think bank tellers being taught this is more common now, especially considering theyll deal with the aftermath of scams as well if its reported
That is absolutely fantastic. All the stores (especially Walmarts) need to train their staff on what is going on with these thieves, and train them how to ALERT customers. The banks should do the same thing. All the millions of dollars that are lost is unreal.
My dad is 85, from England, I’m actually crying at the lady asking the poor victim if she can walk with a walker to the shop! This is someone’s mum, someone’s sister, aunt et. It breaks my heart. You guys are amazing. Keep up the good work. Lots of love ❤️ (sorry for any spelling mistakes, I’m still 😢) x x x
Hi I am 70, in England, and got scammed twice. It is heartbreaking. Watching this sort of thing on RUclips helps because I don't feel so stupid, it can happen to a lot of people, mostly us old ones though. Thank you for reading this. Brenda.
@@brendaprice665 I hear you. Happened to my elder sister. She was too embarrassed to tell me until 3-4 months later and her utilities were turned off for lack of $.
Pierogi no need to apologize for lashing out at these idiots because I love it when you do 😂they deserve it and more. Thank you so much for all of your hard work and long hours exposing these fools ❤️
Would be awesome to let their families know about the disgusting “work” they have been doing. Maybe set up a Twitter account showing faces of people who work in these call centres and try and make it popular in India
That sounds a good idea but let their bosses be the first to be named n shamed cos they had the money to set up the centres n employ the 'workers'. Please also contact the colleges they attend or plan to attend ( the scmr planning to study eng ) cos let's face it any college will be vv happy to know one of their students is a scmr n would drag the college into great disrepute. Keep fighting the good fight.
It is sad, sickening. Thank you for the good you do to stop the despicable abuse of vulnerable ones not educated in deceitful liars, criminal people who have no conscience of good, right.
I just needed to tell you this.....So this is the second time this month that I have gotten scammer calls and thanks to you ....I was able to recognize the scam. Just minutes ago I got the "Amazon" scam.....I let him talk for awhile and after he told me to open the app in my phone....(which I didn't do). I asked him if he knew my friend, Perogie.....Silence and then he hung up. I love you! (not in a creepy way lol)
I was scrammed with the Amazon thing. You would think Amazon would go after these people. I called Amazon and told them what happened to me and they acted like they could care less.
They tried getting me too, I ended up trolling them for around 3 hours that would yell out slurs at them because I made it seem like I had Tourette's. For future reference however, if it isn't in your purchase history, it never happened!
@@schwingedeshaehers I gave them the number they called from because I called that number twice and they answered. I don't know how to track a number. They told me my personal information had been hacked and told me to go the Kroger and call them. They wanted my credit card number to see if it had been hacked. I was stupid enough to believe them until they ask for my credit card number and then I knew it was scammer call. I called the same number back and told them I know you are scamming people and they said you have no way to prove it. That's why I called Amazon and gave them the number.
I wish more people would talk to their elderly family or friends about this, my mom is now 86 y/o and we've taught her the red flags. These people are despicable.
My late maternal grandfather HATED talking on the phone, for whatever reason. He got a call once from somebody trying to convince him to invest in something (I think that's what it was). He said he "didn't need no money" (you have to imagine this in a heavy German accent. Scammer: "But what do you do when you get hungry? How do you buy food?" Grandpa: "I go out and pick up pop bottles on the highway!" It went on like this for about 15 minutes before the scammer gave up.
This isn’t said enough, that info alone could prevent a lot more scams. They called me last week. They didn’t stand a chance, only sorry I didn’t waste more of their time.
The scammers are so rude and I can't figure out why these people don't just hang up when they being treated like jerks! Wake up! Don't let rude people con you. Also, Pierogi, your team of SCAMMER PAYBACK are doing God's work. Thank you from a true fan. I never miss a show.
Because it's a part of the manipulation game. The person gets stressed out further and feels guilty for potentially having done something wrong, so they feel emotional and they can't think. It's such a shame, I feel really bad for old people who get scammed like that. It's very hard to expect that they would do their due diligence and be able to spot those scams. They're already confused in a complicated world using technologies they don't understand, and they're old so their brains may not be as sharp anymore.
I live in New Delhi. Such a holy soul you have bro. You guys are saving humanity. Thousands of people comit suicide every year because of those scammers. Keep it up. Lots of love and blessings to you and your team. 🙏
@@gangachemjong3550 not all Indians. But some do cheat. Everywhere you can find cheaters. I'm an Indian and i loudly say that Indians are also getting scammed by Indians and other nationals both. I'm not saying that people in India don't do scams. But you don't call every Indian scammer. Thanks.
As I was watching this a customer came in and told me about how she was being scammed, I showed her the video and told her what to do to avoid being scammed in the future and she was very happy to know there are people out there trying to help. You really are making a difference even if it is just spreading awareness ❤️
He is spreading awareness, but doing much more than that by deleting all these POS's files with victims' names and identities, capturing their photos from their OWN cameras, and forwarding their scamming ops to the Indian police. He's saving people MILLIONS of dollars, mostly elderly people who are not tech savvy or even understand computer basics.
Poor seniors. They know a lot about life and the world but most of them know nothing about tech. It's sad that they are so naive and can easily be victims of horrible people like these scammers. I think there should be more information around, radio and television advertisement warning people how not to fall victim of a scam. Governments and public institutions should do this as well as private orgs. Thank you so much for everything you do @ScammerPayback you are real modern heroes.
This is very common in hindu culture in India they don't care about so called ' lower caste ' people and foreigners because they eat beef , these hindus drink cow urine and scamm helpless people 🤢🤢🤢 ,HINDUS are supported by MODI too the PM of india
Thank you for ***ing over these guys. My elderly aunt lost $13k a year ago to scammers like this. They fully take advantage of folks who can't think straight.
You guys are heros. Thank you for what you do. Its sickening how they steal from old people. They done it to my mum before i found out and put an end to it.
Once that scammer realised his cover was probably blown, his voice changed... and sounded as if he needed to find the nearest bathroom...... really quickly. You guys are doing outstanding work
You guys are doing the real work here! This happened to my 97 year old grandmother and luckily we caught it just in time, thanks to these videos!! THANK YOU!!!!
Love your work and efforts in saving people being scammed by these scumbags. I wish law and enforcement would take more actions in jailing these criminals.
Thanks for doing this. They nearly scammed my dad while he was battling stage 4 cancer. He was going to go buy gift cards but called me first to tell me what had happened with his lap top. Of course watching this channel I knew it was a scam and told my dad
Hey Pierogi. I am from India. I have been born and bought up in Kolkata West Bengal. I feel so embarrassed that these people are putting Indians so down by scamming innocent people who just get manipulated. God will never forgive them for looting people's money and for making people cry. You are doing a great job. More and more power to you. God bless you ✨
@@theseeker7938 it’s her belief. Are you the type to get offended when someone says “I’ll pray for you”? They’re not forcing you to pray or believe, to them it’s expressing care and kindness for another.
As a network engineer with limited skills as a white hat, I appreciate what you're doing bro. I don't think most people understand the level of technical expertise it takes to scam a scammer. Big ups to you and your team out here helping prevent more innocent people from losing their hard earned money. Your videos are both informative and entertaining. You got a sub from me.
Most of the time it looks like script kiddie stuff. Pre-made programs that do the work for them. Even the social engineering is limited because they are the ones who initiate the connection to the machine.
I just recently finished my associates in computer science and I was going on to get my bachelors in game design but having watched you and your mission to bring these people down, I want to change and get into ethical hacking. You’re awesome and I love what you do man!
It’s so frustrating how all of these scammers are blockheads. Pierogi: *literal address of the scammers call center, and says all of his co-workers names* Scammer: “no I’m in Washington DC”
What's sad is most companies use these call centers for major us companies. For half the money . They get all our data . Selling it on the blak market .
Myself and many others have said it before on your videos and ill say it again, the work yourself and your team do is amazing and please keep up the good work. I've learnt a lot watching this and I've stopped my mum being scammed and shown her these videos. Thank you for what you all do and stay safe
I absolutely love what you do. I was scammed out of several hundred dollars and my identity last year and the scammer had the nerve to FaceTime me after he drained my account and laugh about what he could do to me. It was horrible I went through hell and back to try and protect myself I still do. I am so grateful for anyone like you putting time and effort into stopping them. Personally I wasn’t able to do a thing about it. I learned a valuable lesson though. Thank you again for what you do🤗
Imagine fooling one of their friends in their own "call center" to scam their grandma! That would be heartbreaking. Dude coulda been an engineer making his parents proud - instead, he's scamming people like literal scum of the earth leeching off other peoples' hard work...
Never apologize to us for the language, me personally I have had very heated conversations with some scammers trying to scam my mother. And because of what you and your team do I have learned so much about handling them. Thank you Perogi
One has to ask how morally devoid these people are that they will ask someone with mobility issues to walk 9 miles just so that they can strip this person of everything that they have earned. It also begs the question of how these people would react if the boot were on the other foot and it was one of their Family who were being scammed. You are doing excellent work, Pierogi; it's just a shame that the Indian authorities aren't looking into this with the same enthusiasm to close down these places that you are.
It’s because those “authorities” are heavily bribed to look the other way and to protect the criminals. I don’t know which are the lower form of maggot… the scammers or the cops on the take.
There is a God in Heaven. One day they'll stand at the Great White Throne of Judgement, then Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. King James 1611 Bible They worship all kinds of gods, but not the true GOD IN HEAVEN. That's why they have no heart, or good morals. They're ungodly, unholy, workers of iniquity.

I just had a scam attempt yesterday. I needed to add my wizard number to an Avis rental. I googled for Avis customer service and called the number listed. They answered Avis Customer Service. He asked for my reservation number and dates. He stated he had added the wizard number and I was all set. About 10 minutes later I got a call from a male stating he was an Avis supervisor and was sorry to report that due to a glitz in their system the rental was canceled and he needed to refund my credit card and then reserve a new rental. After watching your videos I smelled a rat and began telling home that a refund was not necessary and to undo their mistake. So we went back and forth a few times with me insisting that he should take care of the problem on his end. He got frustrated and hung up. But that was not the end. When I did get the real Avis rep by phone. They told me the rental had been canceled and when I tried to rebook the scammers kept disconnecting me from Avis. What a bummer, are they going to screw with my phone in the future? I hope this is the end of it but fear it’s not.
Ok, here is the after math. First off I rebooked the rental car on line so no worries. Now the subsequent phone calls to Avis, real Avis,. I would be talking to them and I could hear the Avis rep but I could no longer be heard by the Avis rep. They eventually disconnected after they didn’t get a response from me. So I called back and the same thing happened. Didn’t have a problem before.or after and the call was made from the same room I often call from. I can’t be sure it was the scammers but rather odd.
I am really ashamed of this representation of my country. These scammers are really letting the reputation of India down. It's really good that you are exposing these idiots out. We are inept in putting these scammers behind the bars, atleast people should be aware of what to do when these scammers are running their bullshit. Kudos @scammer payback @jim browning

This needs to be advertised on TV and let everyone know about scams ASAP! I haven't been scammed yet but I can feel the pain of someone being scammed and specially old people who doesn't use technologies and just watch TV. Proud of you mate!
you have saved me an my wife so much anguish !!! we had a scam dealing with ebay and buying some "gift cards" . when they said go get gift cards all the red flags went off for me. we called ebay directly.. ebay straighted us up on the scam. we have sent all the information to the fbi and so did ebay supervisor. thank you so much for exposing these scammers :) love your work brother !!
This really makes me feel shameful and disappointed to see that a foreign man is giving his 100% to stop these punks in my own country and our system can't do nothing about this
Listen more could be done from all governments around the world to try to put a stop to it. Not just in your country. Don't ever feel shameful for your beautiful culture because of these disgusting scammers. They don't speak for everyone in india!
This dude is doing a service for our communities by teaming up with others and gathering information and evidence against these horrible scamers and then letting the law enforcement agencies know about it all! I find It amazing that this can even be done! I guess what I'm just saying is that I appreciate all the effort and hard work you and you're colleagues put in to take these criminals down. My dad has been scam multiple times unfortunately and has lost a lot of money to these types and I wish so badly I could have known then what I know now, I could have saved him THOUSANDS !

Watching these kinds of videos really breaks my heart as you just KNOW these scammers have ruined someone’s life or has screwed them over severely. Thank you guys for trying to put an end to these scams
I only ALMOST scammed and it was still scary, upsetting, and embarrassing. I honestly suspect that there are some elderly who would suicide or have heart attacks after losing their life savings to a scammer. Your videos may even save lives!
This is how they got my phone number: while watching a true crime channel with 7mil subs I clicked on a dental ins ad. The scam calls began the next day, every day, up to 20 calls per day. I feel blessed that I found (& subbed) to your channel 6 months ago. Thank you so much for all you do to get information to the public for free! 💖
YT allowing extremely shady adds made me wonder a long time ago "why?". With machine voice, spelling misstakes, logical errors (e.g. "customer from Germany" - telling us how she keeps spending her US $ on the product like... wat?) and always some bogus story about some secret that nobody else knows and some messianic promisses they claim to sell. Just... odd to see such a big platform with so little concerns for their reputation.
@@willischwabe1324 this is just the Internet now sadly. Money talks more than integrity. It’s not like RUclips has anyone competition for people to walk out on it and people keep using it regardless
I used to work for A**** and it's frustrating and sad when senior citizens call about tech support and gift card scams. There's nothing I could do about it and I would have to tell them this. Keep up the great work!
Dont ever apologize for "lashing out" against these p.o.s. Don't worry about us in the comments and viewing the video. I think we all can handle the anger and language you use. Keep it up
I have to say this is one of the best videos you've done in terms of setting it up at the beginning and explaining to people exactly what you are doing. It feels like I'm there and watching you do this. I also love when you talk to them in their own language. It is hilarious when you tell them to respect you. They get SO mad.
As an Indian myself, I share your concern. It's disheartening to see some individuals engaging in such activities. Those involved should be punished, and scam call centers need to be shut down. Earning money through such means isn't ethical. Staying alert and cautious, and avoiding blind trust, is essential. Thank you sir your videos are so good …
You guys should try reaching out to news/media outlets to talk about this so that more people can let their family members know or so that they can hear it for themselves. Make this go viral on the news! Thanks for all the amazing work you do!
Last week here in Aus there was a news special about scammers and their scams. Jim Browning was actually a part of the show. Pierogi was actually shown when they talked abou scambaiters. Also we have signs in some places telling people to never buy gift cards for these people because it's for a scam. It also tells people that legitimate businesses won't call people.
the media is on the scammers side just like they are on the mobs side. the media and FBI WILL DO NOTHING. They want to bring America down to 3 world level because they want to rule the world. the media and your government is not on your side.
Pierogi, never ever apologize for going off on these scumbags. They deserve anything and everything u throw at them and honestly more. Keep up the good work and keep shutting down these “mother codes” lol
Pierogi, you have once again showed us what a hero you are to the world!! You especially had "James" terrified; there is no doubt he ran off to change his underwear when you were done with him!
I myself would be Leary receiving a call from a stranger telling me I’m being scammed…but it’s awesome when you can get through to help these people that they believe you…great work
I’m completely hooked on your channel!I’m thrilled that there is someone with your level of expertise who is using their talents to do good and to help expose scammers. My landlord, who is an older, single woman, has told me on many occasions that she thinks her phone and computer have been hacked. I used to think she was just paranoid and a little wacky. Now I think she may have actually been a victim of scammers. After watching many of your videos, I now realize how so many innocent people easily fall into the trap. Thank you, Pierogi, for all your hard work. I’m proud of you!
Lisa, you sound like a nice person, is there someone you know who has the IT skills to check on your landlady's devices and make sure they haven't been hacked? Older, single people, and people with disabilities are very frequently targeted for many scams. We are "easy marks." Thanks from me if you do this for her.

"I haven't been to India" he says in the thickest indian accent you can imagine, surrounded by other Indians speaking in Hindi. You have to admire their commitment to the act.

They got influenced by bollywood
Hahahahaha
I mean what did you expect from street-shitting mongrels who ruin people for a living.
They don't speak in Hindu that is a religion not a language 🤔
I work at a grocery store in California, an elder women was on her phone and asked me where the gift cards were!!! Being a long time subscriber of this channel I immediately went into action!! I took the phone and asked who is this, of course they hung up. I explained what had happened to the older lady and she was in tears and very thankful as she realized she had almost been scammed! She promised to hang up on them if they called back.
The world needs more people like you.

Well done that’s amazing 👏

Hearing that scammer asking the elderly woman who isn’t able to drive those 9 miles if she uses a walker was so outrageous. It’s demonic.
They're guided by SATAN!! He takes away their concei

They are ruthless.
I was furious to hear that.
Every single one of these scammers is a sociopath. Empty of guilt, empty of regret, empty of conscience. It really is a shame that we have to share this world with people who don't deserve to live in it.
Never apologize for getting angry with these people, brother.
You have every right to be angry, and so do us
They're not "people"
@axle stfu he did the right thing
@@Peerocka No. They ARE people. And that's the problem. PEOPLE are capable of this. He apologized for losing his cool because it was unprofessional. But he's not apologizing for being angry at them. And that's the difference.

You should never be apologetic about how you talk to them. They know exactly what they are doing to these people. You guys are doing an amazing job! Keep it up!
I've learned quite a few new slurs messing with them.

@@koffiarizamoto9326 So far, I only know a couple of words/phrases in Hindi, but I learned one of them from Pierogi, and I use it to good effect. The other one is a rather nasty word that I've never heard Pierogi use. I'm saving that one as a kind of "nuclear option."
@@dougclark110 what's the word?
This was so dumb to admit that it was him hacking and not somebody in their office, because it would do much more damage if they believed it was someone in their office. This is an ego problem with him.
Pierogi, don’t ever apologise for “lashing out aggressively” what you’re doing is so so important for victims, viewers and everyone! You help so many people, thank you so much!
We WANT you to get aggressive!😂
@@ironsights6738 yes 😂😂
Bless u
I think it was more because some people have anxiety about aggressive phone calls
When people are too difficult to change, d3ath is the answer. Pfft as if the government wouldnt treat us the same way as well.. Like when it comes to whatever they define as treason for example. Being put in jail forever is a form of death as well. The reason they can scam is because they feel safe. Where are the deterrents?
I am from India, I appreciate the work done. I feel bad that there is no action taken by police against scammers to stop them from doing it. Police (Indian) doesnt have to go against everyone even if they arrest people from 5-10 call centres that will create fear in others...
I’m so happy I wasn’t born in India
than you need to learn your rights and obligation and the law procedures,
also need to know difference between FIR and magistrate complain
No because the police are on the scammers payment plan
Unfortunately if you're police are like most in the world then they're getting a cut.
And, how goes anyone know that the scamers aren't paying the cops over there? Just an assumption, but possible isn't it?
We have an elderly Chinese friend who is single. She was a brilliant medical researcher, but totally tech UN-savvy and naive. We have been showing her your videos and warning her about the various strategies. She successfully avoided being scammed by a utility scammer a few days ago. Then she called us to report in! :D We were so proud of her! Thank YOU!!!
That's fantastic to hear, I have wondered about doing this for my elderly relatives
Well done!
@Russell Bishop , It's a good idea! My aunt lives in an assisted living apartment. I got permission to show some videos and talk to the residents about being scammed online and from the phone.
The NEXT DAY I got a call from the admin letting me know that I had stopped at least three residents from getting phone scammed!
A week later my own aunt got the MS scam call and they tried to get her to install anydeks. 🤣 She's a bit of a smarta$$ like me and kept the guy on the phone for over an hour talking about how she didn't have any "decks" of playing cards, would UNO cards be OK? I was SO PROUD of her!
@@johnwilliams8818 I was just thinking this morning that I need to start a community program to help folks defend themselves against scammers. This is a great idea! And congratulations for making a huge difference in your community!
Yay!
Thank you for getting heated. These scammers have hurt so many people especially in rural communities where there is very little support. We appreciate you and all you do.
Thank you.

I love wasting scam callers time by answering their calls. I once got a scam caller who was speaking Spanish and I didn't speak Spanish. I had my friend who spoke Spanish talk to him. They went at it for a couple of hours and eventually they started cursing at each other until the scam caller hung up out of anger.
It’s some persons personal number.
They are live out of California
The number is from La Grange, Texas ZZ Top song. But that is what it shows
Keep destroying these scammers. We’re all here to watch them suffer for everything they’ve done.

I'm an assistant manager at a major retailer and I am definitely watching out for hints of these elderly folks getting scammed just from what I've seen on here. Thank you scammer payback for informing us all!
As an old lady myself I’m seriously glad you are educating people of any age. I tell everyone I know to follow you. I had “my electric company” give me a call not too long ago telling me service was about to be shut off in 30 minutes. They had a big explanation of how they had accidentally refunded money to my account. I kept them on the line a while messing with them, telling them about my 80 year old momma that was going to be cold soon. They ended the call I guess because I’m annoying. 😬
Just blast super loud music or make weird jokes (about police lol). Works every time.
@Swim Fan its about helping victims. Keeping them on the line stops them from scamming somebody else.
@Swim Fan they are all fluent in English and they sit there for 11 hours a day. What are you on about
Dear Driving Diamonds: By your choice of moniker (title) -- you know what you are talking about.
I looooved that❤️
Keep being annoying 😊
I worked at a gas station for a few years and an assistant GM and when I would see anyone buying a large amount of gift cards I'd always tell them if someone on the phone asked for them, it's a scam. Sometimes they'd realize they're being scammed, sometimes they were christmas presents, but every time I felt like I was doing the right thing
i was wiring money via western union (online), and they didnt complete the transaction until they spoke to me over the phone. it was legit transfer, and i appreciated the "inconvenience " .

they tell people to say they are christmas presents if questioned
you were doing the right thing, scam or not. good on you!
@@CaffeinatedFrostbite True. then I'd overstep my boundary and ask over and over are you sure your are not being instructed? If i get a complaint, then I get a complaint.... no good deed....
I know you guys probably don’t read too many comments, but I just want to give you a heartfelt thank you. My dad is 80 years old and has gotten taken from a couple of scams in the past. I got him hooked on your channel because he thinks you guys are hilarious, but your videos have also taught him how to spot these scams right away, and made him understand how it works so he can warn his older friends and family too. Knowledge is empowerment. Thank you thank you. I know my dad is safer for having seen your videos.
Believe it! He reads every comment!!
I am sure "each and every" comment is read by the Scammer Payback Team, and posts such as your's must make their day and all the hard work and effort they put into scam baiting, really worth it 🙂
Best Wishes to you and your dad from the UK x
This is the best thank god Periogi is on our side
Sorry to hear your dad was scammed. My niece was scammed a few years ago while in college for a couple grand.
I worry about my Mom also, so I keep her in the loop about everything I learn.
putting an ad on the evidences folder you sent to the scammers is so toxic and I love it
Dude, you are amazing, my elderly parents are called 20-30 times a day with a scam, the world needs more like you
Call them back and call them out
Tell your parents to use Cricket phone service it comes with a free blocking app plus scam email goes to the trash can.
T-Mobile has an automatic scam-call catcher. I recommend getting it, they also have a senior plan that is decent.
Also, if they are on cell phones, set the ring tone to silent, and then go through their contacts list and assign a tone to people they want or need to be in contact with.
Today alone, T-Mobile stopped about 15 scam calls to my phone.
indians lol
Tell your parents to get a new phone number and to not answer unknown calls, since the phone number they have now was probably sold to hundreds of call centers and thats why they keep getting called
“I apologize for lashing out at these scammers” my guy there is no need to apologize. They NEED to be scared and to know they aren’t invincible

Thank you Pierogi for helping everyone. But for me being part of a older generation 66 years young 😊 I m so very grateful for all you and your team do for us.
Just a PSA here: The elderly are not the only ones vulnerable. My husband is NOT tech savvy at all!! I returned home from one of our kid’s baseball game to find him completely drained of color, shaking and on the verge of tears. Because he was on the phone I automatically assumed someone in our family had died. He was so shook he just handed me the phone and collapsed onto the couch. The man on the phone was in the middle of telling my husband to say goodbye to his family because the police were en route to arrest him because he didn’t have $10,000 to pay to avoid arrest. The man was telling him h would be in prison for 5 years and he was a worthless father for not paying his taxes and deserved to be locked up. (I made Perogi’s rant sound like a polite speech from a dignified head of state 😂 )
My husband was so shook he 🤮 It took weeks for him to truly believe it was a scam because he just couldn’t understand how another human being could do this to another person. It robbed him of his confidence for quite awhile which broke my heart.
These scammers are so despicable. Thank you Perogi ♥️
I'm so sorry those despicable people made your husband feel that way.
I hope he's doing better now, and if he watches these videos, I hope he gets some satisfaction from watching scammers get their comeuppance ❤️
Poor guy :( I’m sure he’s a wonderful father and husband and he never should’ve been spoken to that way. Scammers disgust me so much.

@@soupingsoup LOL Nope. He’s Greek Orthodox darlin’. We have 7 kiddos.

They would have an old person walk 9 miles with a walker just so they can scam.. pure evil
They scam cancer patients, there is nothing that will stop them besides exposing them to authorities that care enough to help and educating as many people as possible about these scumbags
I'd have them lined up against the wall facing a firing squad.

@@africacarey Ngl I kinda admired the aggressiveness. If they weren't scamming they'd make decent salespeople. Sucks that they use their talents for evil.
Seeing seniors get scammed breaks my heart. I am a senior and almost got scammed but shut my computer off before they could do anything. I can’t express how much l appreciate what you do for so many of us. You are one of me heroes.
Hang in there! I’m almost a senior. Never believe any pop up. Never believe any email. Call a company directly for any questions you have if something scares you. Watch out for scam advertising when you think you have googled a site correctly. If it’s scary, or intimidating in any way, it’s a scammer. Hang in there, you’ve got this!

I was stupid enough to believe them until they ask for my credit card number and then I knew it was scammer call.

Because it's a part of the manipulation game. The person gets stressed out further and feels guilty for potentially having done something wrong, so they feel emotional and they can't think. It's such a shame, I feel really bad for old people who get scammed like that. It's very hard to expect that they would do their due diligence and be able to spot those scams. They're already confused in a complicated world using technologies they don't understand, and they're old so their brains may not be as sharp anymore.

Hey Pierogi. I am from India. I have been born and bought up in Kolkata West Bengal. I feel so embarrassed that these people are putting Indians so down by scamming innocent people who just get manipulated. God will never forgive them for looting people's money and for making people cry. You are doing a great job. More and more power to you. God bless you ✨
Many are here in West Bengal too
Ok?
What is there to do with God?
So....???? Go report them to police(which will likely do nothing because all of scamdia is same)
@@theseeker7938 it’s her belief. Are you the type to get offended when someone says “I’ll pray for you”? They’re not forcing you to pray or believe, to them it’s expressing care and kindness for another.
As a network engineer with limited skills as a white hat, I appreciate what you're doing bro. I don't think most people understand the level of technical expertise it takes to scam a scammer. Big ups to you and your team out here helping prevent more innocent people from losing their hard earned money. Your videos are both informative and entertaining. You got a sub from me.
Most of the time it looks like script kiddie stuff. Pre-made programs that do the work for them. Even the social engineering is limited because they are the ones who initiate the connection to the machine.
@@yoshitakafukuda9885 Still takes a pretty good level of social engineering to get them to reverse the connection.
Thank you for doing this. We've had way too many scammers getting away with this. Enough already
I just recently finished my associates in computer science and I was going on to get my bachelors in game design but having watched you and your mission to bring these people down, I want to change and get into ethical hacking. You’re awesome and I love what you do man!
You can do both and use game design as a cover 😉
White Hat Hacking. May you stay clean while chasing the dirtbags.
Join him then...we need more ppl like him.
If there is one channel on RUclips that is worth being seen by everyone, it is yours! Thank you for what you do.
It’s so frustrating how all of these scammers are blockheads.
Pierogi: *literal address of the scammers call center, and says all of his co-workers names*
Scammer: “no I’m in Washington DC”
And then he says Redmond, Washington lol
What's sad is most companies use these call centers for major us companies. For half the money . They get all our data . Selling it on the blak market .
i think the word blockheads is a good way to describe them
Same thing with the dude that said “you’re almost right sir” 😂😂
Just like politicians
Myself and many others have said it before on your videos and ill say it again, the work yourself and your team do is amazing and please keep up the good work. I've learnt a lot watching this and I've stopped my mum being scammed and shown her these videos. Thank you for what you all do and stay safe
I absolutely love what you do. I was scammed out of several hundred dollars and my identity last year and the scammer had the nerve to FaceTime me after he drained my account and laugh about what he could do to me. It was horrible I went through hell and back to try and protect myself I still do. I am so grateful for anyone like you putting time and effort into stopping them. Personally I wasn’t able to do a thing about it. I learned a valuable lesson though. Thank you again for what you do🤗
I wanna see one where Pierogi is able to connect a call to the scammer's friends or grandparents/parents and get them to scam their own parents lmao.
This would be pay per view
Imagine fooling one of their friends in their own "call center" to scam their grandma! That would be heartbreaking. Dude coulda been an engineer making his parents proud - instead, he's scamming people like literal scum of the earth leeching off other peoples' hard work...
I would pay to watch this!!!
I would pay to watch that! $$$$
Brilliant 👌
Never apologize to us for the language, me personally I have had very heated conversations with some scammers trying to scam my mother. And because of what you and your team do I have learned so much about handling them. Thank you Perogi
1:11 Telling someone to walk with a walker since she doesn't drive is beyond insane. How heartless these people are!
One has to ask how morally devoid these people are that they will ask someone with mobility issues to walk 9 miles just so that they can strip this person of everything that they have earned.
It also begs the question of how these people would react if the boot were on the other foot and it was one of their Family who were being scammed.
You are doing excellent work, Pierogi; it's just a shame that the Indian authorities aren't looking into this with the same enthusiasm to close down these places that you are.
It’s because those “authorities” are heavily bribed to look the other way and to protect the criminals.
I don’t know which are the lower form of maggot… the scammers or the cops on the take.
They are pigs and will go to the slaughterhouse sooner or later.
There is a God in Heaven. One day they'll stand at the Great White Throne of Judgement, then Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
King James 1611 Bible
They worship all kinds of gods, but not the true GOD IN HEAVEN. That's why they have no heart, or good morals. They're ungodly, unholy, workers of iniquity.
Just want to say as someone who had a few thousand taken away by a scam I appreciate you doing this. Means a lot. Thank you.
Why would you give random people your money? Like how does that even happen? Especially from a bunch of people with Indian accents.
NPC things
@@cordeliachase601 because he was probably lonely. They target lonely people. Don’t be so mean dude.
@@nicolette1598 asking honest questions on published topics aren't "mean"! Keep your lame woken'ess under control, instead of lecturing adults how to behave!
Golden rule - if you hear Indian accent, just drop the phone, it works, really 😁.
This video and your programme in general should be a part of any school curriculum worldwide. I have used some of your videos to show it to my son so that he gets acquainted with internet scams and grow his awareness. Hats off and keep up doing great work! All the best
We the people owe these scam fighters a huge thank you for all they do! I am a victim myself and can't believe the awesome work they do! I would give anything to learn their craft so I can join the fight! God Bless you all for the tremendous work you do!!!!
I just had a scam attempt yesterday.
I needed to add my wizard number to an Avis rental. I googled for Avis customer service and called the number listed. They answered Avis Customer Service. He asked for my reservation number and dates. He stated he had added the wizard number and I was all set.
About 10 minutes later I got a call from a male stating he was an Avis supervisor and was sorry to report that due to a glitz in their system the rental was canceled and he needed to refund my credit card and then reserve a new rental. After watching your videos I smelled a rat and began telling home that a refund was not necessary and to undo their mistake. So we went back and forth a few times with me insisting that he should take care of the problem on his end. He got frustrated and hung up.
But that was not the end. When I did get the real Avis rep by phone. They told me the rental had been canceled and when I tried to rebook the scammers kept disconnecting me from Avis.
What a bummer, are they going to screw with my phone in the future? I hope this is the end of it but fear it’s not.
Write email to scammer payback
@@1newme425 exactly how can his phone call be controlled. Maybe they were calling him back to back to keep his phone busy,?
@@1newme425 They can't. He's telling "pork pies" (Rhyming slang lol)
Ok, here is the after math. First off I rebooked the rental car on line so no worries. Now the subsequent phone calls to Avis, real Avis,. I would be talking to them and I could hear the Avis rep but I could no longer be heard by the Avis rep. They eventually disconnected after they didn’t get a response from me. So I called back and the same thing happened. Didn’t have a problem before.or after and the call was made from the same room I often call from. I can’t be sure it was the scammers but rather odd.
@@WayneM1961 no I don’t blow smoke. What I stated is what happened. You may not believe me but don’t tell someone else that I’m not telling the truth.
I am really ashamed of this representation of my country. These scammers are really letting the reputation of India down. It's really good that you are exposing these idiots out. We are inept in putting these scammers behind the bars, atleast people should be aware of what to do when these scammers are running their bullshit. Kudos @scammer payback @jim browning
I refuse to speak to any Indian in any call centres even if they are legit. So your right they are giving your country and your people a bad name.
Did India have any reputation? 🤔
@@JuanSanchez-zz6jx The oldest civilization in the world. One of the oldest countries with deep rooted history and culture. The land of spices. The oldest University (Nalanda University). The land from where the decimal system astrology and astronomy was devised, the techniques of surgery , medicine and metallurgy originated. Where Games like chess and hopscotch originated. The seventh largest country with the fourth largest army and with names like Rabindranath Tagore Sachin Tendulkar, Mahatma Gandhi and Lata Mangeshkar echoing around the world. One of the five countries to reach Mars and the only one to reach it in the first attempt. One of the largest software exporting countries. The 7th richest man is ironically Indian. The CEO of Google, the CEO of microsoft and the CEO of twitter are Indians as well.
Yeah you are right. Probably thats not enough for reputation. 🙂 Unfortunately we are humble enough to not brag about what we are. Truth is some Indians are unaware of their own culture and they run these scam centers looting people of their life savings. They are not educated enough to understand their culture. 🙂
It’s an honest representation.
@@JuanSanchez-zz6jx lol, it's a new day, get out of your dream mate!
This needs to be advertised on TV and let everyone know about scams ASAP! I haven't been scammed yet but I can feel the pain of someone being scammed and specially old people who doesn't use technologies and just watch TV. Proud of you mate!
You have a special place in the hearts of many people, especially the scammed. You are our keyboard knights in truth armor.
you have saved me an my wife so much anguish !!! we had a scam dealing with ebay and buying some "gift cards" . when they said go get gift cards all the red flags went off for me. we called ebay directly.. ebay straighted us up on the scam. we have sent all the information to the fbi and so did ebay supervisor. thank you so much for exposing these scammers :) love your work brother !!
This really makes me feel shameful and disappointed to see that a foreign man is giving his 100% to stop these punks in my own country and our system can't do nothing about this
It's your government, not the individuals in the country.
Every country also has their own shitty side of things so don't feel bad.
Listen more could be done from all governments around the world to try to put a stop to it. Not just in your country. Don't ever feel shameful for your beautiful culture because of these disgusting scammers. They don't speak for everyone in india!
This dude is doing a service for our communities by teaming up with others and gathering information and evidence against these horrible scamers and then letting the law enforcement agencies know about it all!
I find It amazing that this can even be done!
I guess what I'm just saying is that I appreciate all the effort and hard work you and you're colleagues put in to take these criminals down.
My dad has been scam multiple times unfortunately and has lost a lot of money to these types and I wish so badly I could have known then what I know now, I could have saved him THOUSANDS !
Anyway, THANK YOU FOR DOING SOMETHING! IT'S WAY MORE THAN ANYTHING I COULD HAVE DONE!
Much love and peace to you all
God bless yall!
I got scammed a few years back I am so glad you guys are here they have no backbone it is disgusting x
You don't have to apologize for getting upset, we all are but you made it worth while with the help you give.
As a disabled young woman, I cannot thank you enough for what you do for everyone in the disabled community. You are truly an amazing human being❤️
When they said Direct Express my stomach dropped. These scammers are evil.
Excellent work, feels like most of people outside of the IT industry are not aware of all the risks out there, keep spreading the word Brother.
Perogi don't you ever apologize for ripping into those sorry no good p.o.s
Scammers!! You dont realize the extraordinary job you do every single day to help these victims!! Because I've watched you guys and seen all you do for these people ,I am planning to become an official patreon member to help you guys keep up this amazing work!!! Selfless wonderful group of guys that deserve all the help and contributions you can get!!
Much love and God bless guys!!!
Watching these kinds of videos really breaks my heart as you just KNOW these scammers have ruined someone’s life or has screwed them over severely.
Thank you guys for trying to put an end to these scams
yup
I only ALMOST scammed and it was still scary, upsetting, and embarrassing. I honestly suspect that there are some elderly who would suicide or have heart attacks after losing their life savings to a scammer. Your videos may even save lives!
This is how they got my phone number: while watching a true crime channel with 7mil subs I clicked on a dental ins ad. The scam calls began the next day, every day, up to 20 calls per day. I feel blessed that I found (& subbed) to your channel 6 months ago. Thank you so much for all you do to get information to the public for free! 💖
YT allowing extremely shady adds made me wonder a long time ago "why?".
With machine voice, spelling misstakes, logical errors (e.g. "customer from Germany" - telling us how she keeps spending her US $ on the product like... wat?) and always some bogus story about some secret that nobody else knows and some messianic promisses they claim to sell.
Just... odd to see such a big platform with so little concerns for their reputation.
@@willischwabe1324 this is just the Internet now sadly. Money talks more than integrity. It’s not like RUclips has anyone competition for people to walk out on it and people keep using it regardless
Were you using your phone to watch it? How do they get phone numbers through ads?
@@locazahra I was watching videos on my phone. They don't know my name bc my phone is on a family plan. It's always donate to the 'Chiefs of Police '.
I was getting calls from the Amazon scammers I had to block every number and they hacked my gpay too
My mother-in-law got scammed and ever since I've loved watching you guys get payback for people like her that got taken.
I used to work for A**** and it's frustrating and sad when senior citizens call about tech support and gift card scams. There's nothing I could do about it and I would have to tell them this. Keep up the great work!
Dont ever apologize for "lashing out" against these p.o.s. Don't worry about us in the comments and viewing the video. I think we all can handle the anger and language you use. Keep it up
I have to say this is one of the best videos you've done in terms of setting it up at the beginning and explaining to people exactly what you are doing. It feels like I'm there and watching you do this. I also love when you talk to them in their own language. It is hilarious when you tell them to respect you. They get SO mad.
As an Indian myself, I share your concern. It's disheartening to see some individuals engaging in such activities. Those involved should be punished, and scam call centers need to be shut down. Earning money through such means isn't ethical. Staying alert and cautious, and avoiding blind trust, is essential. Thank you sir your videos are so good …
You guys should try reaching out to news/media outlets to talk about this so that more people can let their family members know or so that they can hear it for themselves. Make this go viral on the news! Thanks for all the amazing work you do!
Last week here in Aus there was a news special about scammers and their scams. Jim Browning was actually a part of the show.
Pierogi was actually shown when they talked abou scambaiters.
Also we have signs in some places telling people to never buy gift cards for these people because it's for a scam. It also tells people that legitimate businesses won't call people.
They do.
@@Gamesta100 can You give me the link.
@@soham9119 I saw it on regular TV. It was a channel 7 news special. Don't know if you can find an online version from that.
the media is on the scammers side just like they are on the mobs side. the media and FBI WILL DO NOTHING. They want to bring America down to 3 world level because they want to rule the world.
the media and your government is not on your side.
Pierogi, never ever apologize for going off on these scumbags. They deserve anything and everything u throw at them and honestly more. Keep up the good work and keep shutting down these “mother codes” lol
I love the psychological warfare aspect of how he just shoves it in their own faces telling them "You're fucked."
Pierogi, you have once again showed us what a hero you are to the world!! You especially had "James" terrified; there is no doubt he ran off to change his underwear when you were done with him!
How dispicable asking for the victim to walk anywhere with a walker
I myself would be Leary receiving a call from a stranger telling me I’m being scammed…but it’s awesome when you can get through to help these people that they believe you…great work
That’s why we need to keep sharing these videos with loved ones. That way they at least have the examples of situations like this
I’m completely hooked on your channel!I’m thrilled that there is someone with your level of expertise who is using their talents to do good and to help expose scammers.
My landlord, who is an older, single woman, has told me on many occasions that she thinks her phone and computer have been hacked. I used to think she was just paranoid and a little wacky. Now I think she may have actually been a victim of scammers. After watching many of your videos, I now realize how so many innocent people easily fall into the trap.
Thank you, Pierogi, for all your hard work. I’m proud of you!
Lisa, you sound like a nice person, is there someone you know who has the IT skills to check on your landlady's devices and make sure they haven't been hacked? Older, single people, and people with disabilities are very frequently targeted for many scams. We are "easy marks." Thanks from me if you do this for her.
I know I am too
"Scammer: 'm in Washington D.C. sir..
SPB: No you're not, you're in New Delhi
