I doubt you feel any sympathy at all!!! When people are threatened with police and arrests, and they are elderly or immigrants, they really feel terrified! In their countries, they couldn't trust police.. The elderly aren't computer savvy, their IQ is diminishing with aging, are gullible, too trusting.. Instead, we need to seek to warn and protect them! Stop blaming them! I had to reassure my elderly neighbor several times that police wasn't waiting for him at home, while he was in the hospital! He was really worried after the phone call he got...

    What’s funny is literally the day after your first video on this (pt 1), my husband gets a call from a lady with this exact scam. He laughed in her face. He didn’t see your video, we just have experience dealing with the real IRS and we know the real way they contact you and how they do it. Again 16 years of IRS contacting us for shit. Lol
    I showed him your video afterwards and he was like how can people really not know it’s a scam. Happy you keep bringing things like this to light.
    When I ran Walmart (I was a salary manger for 14 years) in the money center anyone sending money we had to ask what they were sending it for. You wouldn’t believe how many of my associates would get cussed out for asking. Some refused to answer and my people knew at that point they had to call me up there. We saved many people from sending money for scams to scam countries like Africa and India. Some just got pissed and probably went somewhere else (not Walmart because it’d be flagged) but still. Others broke down in tears when we saved them from sending it.

      it depends on the person I was scammed with 1650 euros the scammer wanted to buy a motorcycle from me, I've never sold something online so he scammed me via "PayPal" it all looked legit so I lost the "transportation fee and insurance" to the scammer. And my monthly salary is 400 euros so yeah it was a lot to me but I've learned my lesson. Was I stupid? of course Will I believe again a foreigner who wants to buy something from me and wants me to pay the fees? never in my life.

      You can attribute it to a few things: the elderly, mentally challenged and, well signs of the times. The media literally blows things out of proportion and stirs up fear, uncertainty, and doubt about your government wherever you are. And it's this same government who does nothing about these companies that pay crap wages to workers to scam millions from innocent victims.

      @MsFunnyfeet 4 года назад +23

      Youness Khader My father had done business in Asia years ago. There, at the time, you had to do a lot of bribing to get things done. So, this Nigerian ‘prince’ contacted him about this ‘money’ he had inherited or something like that. He needed to get paperwork done in order to get it out of the country and would give my dad a percentage if he’d pay the bribery fees to get ‘official stamps’ on the paperwork to get it out. My father was in the beginning stages of Parkinson’s disease and had started getting dementia. If he had been in his right mind, he would have known better and wouldn’t have given away all their mo way they had worked and saved for. If I ever won the lottery, I would most likely hire mercenaries to find that son of a butch and bring him to me to torture. God can forgive him. I can’t, and it’s not my place to either.

      I'm sorry but if you fall for scams like this over the age of fkn 18, you deserve it. FFS why is it when I was 14 in the early 2000s, I NEVER FELL FOR ANY SCAM, even though I had scammers try to scam me MULTIPLE TIMES AT THAT AGE. Why is it the first scammer I encountered on eBay back in early 2000s as a teen, my instincts, Intuition, awareness, and common sense was FAR FAR MORE THAN 40-80 YEAR OLDS and I WASN'T GULLIBLE AND STOOPID TO FALL FOR IT EVEN AS A TEEN? Seriously people who get scammed at age 30/40/50/60, how can they be this fkn R3TARD3D? heck even gen z kids (the saddest most pathetic generation ever), ALSO fall for scams DESPITE having grown up WITH THE internet and youtube videos and their social media gods they worship and send money to monthly or daily on youtube twitch or patreon. Heck if they're stuoid enough to fall for the youtube "buy my chitty overpriced shirt because it's only available for a limited time and is 90% off from an original price of $1000, but now it's $100 for this chitty ugly shirt with my chitty logo on it that makes you look like a buffoon when you wear it in public however lucky for you most people see you and are so happy because they will befriend you for having a mutual common like of penis worshipping me and paying me online when they see your shirt". then they deserve it for being stupider at age 21 than I was at fkn age 6. I mean if even young gen z m0rons who SHOULD know better fall for scams daily not once but multiple times. It's not surprising if a 80 year old with no tech knowledge does either. I'm sorry but I didn't know tech either. We have intuition and common sense for a reason. But in America, common sense is EVIL for people, it's ALL about being conformist and being like everyone else, gullible, stupid, arrogant, thinking NO ONE will ever be able to scam them or fool them, and that's why they kill themselves once they realize their whole life they deluded themselves to think they're so fkn smart and "on top"
