*He's the hero the internet deserves, but not the one it needs right now.*
*So we'll watch him. Because he can teach it. Because he's not our hero.*
*He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A real engineer.*
I think you meant the opposite "we need him,but we don't deserve him"
He is the watcher on the Web.

Informative, practical solution. Unfortunately it does not prevent them from doing it again but it delays them.
I would imagine it will cost them a few penies for a new domain name
Well if more and more people (still a fraction of internet users) report it like here wouldnt it become extremely difficult/tiresome to have your sites blocked more often than not?
It will definitely stop them from doing it again if they get reported quickly. Alle the work & hassle to order a new domain and phone number and install your phising template on the domain is very annoying to them. If they can only fool a handful of people per domain it won't be worth it for them.
@@OriginalLyricLantern They can just automate the stuff.

Awesome.

I am a computer engineering student in first year and wanted to learn more about python but the main thing I take away from this video is your passion for protecting the public as an engineer. I never really understood engineering ethics but I am coming to learn how important it really is. Thank you engineer man. I aspire to be like you.
please don't end up spending 12 years of your life on php like he did tho
@@HaswellCore why
@@HaswellCore not disagreeing with you just curious
@@HaswellCore ?
Excellent job describing this to the non-technical users. Kudos, now I can just link to your video instead of trying to explain this to others. :)
A much easier step to shutdown scammer: when receive a phone call with Indian accent, hang up. If you receive an email with an Indian email address, delete it. That's much more effective.
@@seanleith5312 or have some fun with the scammers and troll them
one time I said my name was jack meoff and only 1out of about 5 got it. Never call these numbers because it's unsafe unless u call them and mess with them and know how do it like scammer payback
Now if only there was some way to write a program to do all of this for you.
Hey, there could be... Do it up!
@@qwerasdfhjkio if someone would steal that idea, it would not really matter, as the main goal of this idea is to get more ppl to report scam sites. It is not about him getting money, but to make life harder for scammers. And that would happen if someone stole his idea.
There is, just a python script with the help of selenium (if I'm not mistaken) library to interact with websites and there you go
I'll do it, just wait some time
@@josueteodoromoreira8921 Is it ready yet?
I just love the skill and speed of this guy, shutting down scammers is a gift that benefits the rest of us who don't have his knowledge.
Clear, efficient and effective. If we had say 10,000 other "good guys" with the skillset like you have donate 30 mins a day blowing up scammer sites we might have a chance... I feel like I want to buy you a beer or something.
I've watched other vids you've posted which have more complex approaches, but this is so dead simple! Love It
dude, i love you , i get all the time scam emails and text here in uk, because the "digital police" is non-existent, and even if you send them a complaint, they will reply with "we do not have many resources, but we will do all we can", but this sir, you help me a lot. a big thank you
the like/dislike-ratio is sick!
This video is just awesome. Simple easy and effective - like a good piece of code - but also for people without programmingexperience
Thank you for sharing. Now I've started to fight back scammers and that works pretty well !
Great stuff ... I'm subscribing right now! I love to learn ... I love to see scammers get what they deserve!
Thank you really much for making this video. You sure are a guardian to all of us
I really appreciate your content even though I have no idea about programming (also your voice is so soothing)
Thanks Engineer Man!! Great video to make people aware of how to report these guys. I hate scammers.
You are doing good work, keep it up!
Thanks for posting. Keep up the good work buddy!😀👍
Thank you a lot that you teach me how to get rid of these inconvenience messages. Appreciate your work.
I'm really impressed by the efficiency of the simple steps you've shown.
I've never received such a message but I'll keep that for later, to inform friends and familly.
Great video for all. As always keep up the good work EM
Excellent, all above-board, ways to combat scammers. I will be sure to come back to this video next time a scammer tries something like this - thanks!!
Great video, for anyone interested you can do much the same with email scams. Look into the email headers you'll often find it's legitimate emails that have been hacked and used to send spam, reporting it to the site admins will usually get it fixed quickly.
5 minutes or so? Nice! I'm impressed with the improvement in attitude by internet providers like Google and that URL shortener. In the past, let's say 15-20 years ago, I used to report spammers and scammers to the abuse@ and postmaster@ addresses and basically was ignored.
Subbed so fast from watching previous vids. Bro I'm so glad I'd be able to go this fromm phone till I get a new computer. I hope one day to get on your level. You're an Inspiration!
Great tip. This won't stop them from sprouting up some other place but at least it shuts down the immediate site and that should help some people.
an engineer fixing a problem! i enjoy your python method of annoying them. it also taught me some new packages to use in general.
Never thought of going the extra mile. Just did it for a few sites that were still up even after spamming them :D Thanks for showing me something I love doing, and inspiring me to learn more python
Nice work my man. Ty. Keep fighting the good fight.
We need more guys like you in the world. Many people are victims of scammers just by not knowing enough about technology. Very nice!
Great work there, thank you for sharing.
Simple and effective. Bravo! I'll remember this for the future, to protect other people from phishing attacks.
I don't do Facebook but this is one video I'll forward there. Good work man, keep em coming.
Spectacular!! Thank you Engineer Man for sharing.
Great work. Appreciate your efforts and sharing
The amount of scammers out there reflects how profitable and how easy it is to scamm people. Doing those simple steps you will make the scammers life a little hard and hopefully make it less attractive to scam. Nice job man! Keep up with this amazing work.
Great job! I usually ignore them but I'm going to report them as you showed. I wasn't aware of the reporting features in chrome, pretty cool!
Great content. Short & informative. Subbed.
Nice, straight, and to the point. I appreciate this video and you for that
Awesome. Thank you for the good work and informative video.
Great work! Keep on fighting the good fight!
I have only completed basic reporting of these types. I appreciate the extra knowledge
Great job! Thank you for the lecture.
Got a text today and had a first go at trying out the steps :D Good work mate!
That's some pretty sweet info! Definitely gonna use it next time.
Brilliant! thanks for this guide ill do the same next time a scam comes up.
You did something like this: BAN HAMMER THAT SITE, and it worked. Really like the vids, keep up the good work!
Excellent. Thanks for sharing the tips.
Thanks and kudos for spreading the knowledge !!
Best regards
Nice job bro, thank you for teaching us noobs how to fight back one scammer at a time
Excellent advice and so easy and quick to do. Thank you :-)
Thanks for this. I'm glad there are a few things I can do to help stop these scammers. Or if not stop, at least make it more difficult.
Nice to have a Digital Sheriff! Cheers!!! Shared.
Thanks for sharing this video with useful and so simple info that could help to stop these fraudulent web pages and alert many people....though they should be shut down, investigate and prosecute!
What i learned in short ,
1. Chrome Report a Phishing Page
2. URL shorter service - text them
3. Google Voice Abuse Form
4. who is for Abuse domain mail :)
Thanks Alotttt
Wow dude, u r hero. Thanks for letting us know that this is how we can still teach scammers a lesson without being hackerman . Thanks . Please make more videos like these.
Best instruction on dealing with fraud domains I've ever seen!
Thank you so much, you just saved my whole family i just realized we forgot to by a secure domain so everyone could go to our house thx so much we just bought it so we dont have unwanted phone calls and stuff
Thank you!!!! This is really helpful.
Short, informative and simple.
You're the OG !
Fantastic video - thank you
This is awesome, thanks for the video and your efforts
Concentrated information! Thanks!
Straightforward solutions. Thanks
Useful information. Thanks
Thank you so much now I know what to do! :)
Very nice video man!
Appreciated. The world needs more like you. 🖖 👌
Appreciate everything you're doing!
Great video, thanks!
Awesome video! I just missed the links of Chrome phishing report and the way you figured it out their domain... Thanks
Fantastic…I can’t believe I learned so much in such a short video.
OMG! Thank you for showing how to shutdown scammers. This actually helped me to shutdown a suspicious site which was trying to use some bait reward so that another ad company can profit off of and leads to the advert page
Short & to the point. Great video.
Now I'd like to know how quickly they can make a new one and if they lose money on it. Probably not (a lot). Although sadly, some people still fall for stuff like this & when they do, it usually goes very bad very quickly. I thought scalpers were the scum of the earth... They still are, but scammers are even worse.
Amazing video dude, even non technologically oriented people can follow this. 10/10 IGN.
Im sitting on my desk doing Advanced Trigonometry and this badass is schooling scammers. I should really learn to code!
OUTSTANDING! Make the scammers SUFFER!!! You ROCK, DUDE! Ever think about joining forces with the people of the FIX-IT Army??? BLESSED BE!
Great advice well done.
WHAT A GREAT HOBBY, THANK YOU
A while back on a video you used your chrome browser to analyze traffic on a web sight or web adress. Can you do a video on how you use Chrome like this and all of the extensions you use please. I'm just now learning about all this stuff. Great video. Keep it up
Ty yt algos for bringing me here. This guy is amazing. I’ve been scammed a few times in my life and it’s infuriating. It’s upsetting to know you got duped. Anyway. Keep doing god’s work. You’re f amazing and an amazing engineer. Like wow.
Just did it:) Thanks for the tips
Excellent video!
Scammers are more terrified of Engineer Man than of John Wick.
Nice, thanks for teaching us this
You and I have two things in common, we both love Python, and hate scammers. Subscribed!
