    I truly cannot thank you all enough for what you do (Lewis, you're actively *SAVING* people.. makes your channel absolutely my favorite, to be fair JimBrowning and you both! You're heroes!)
    I was a victim of an IRS- and then (not giftcards likely because I was younger) western union. I was a single mom of a newborn with no support, and emotionally vulnerable.. I was deathly afraid of being taken away for some IRS bs unpaid taxes or whatever- I didn't know. I thought it was possible some mistake happened- I'd moved 2 states and from Europe < ex military family at the time>- bc of all the moves. I was terrified my baby would be put into foster or something if I went to jail, and as I said emotionally a wreck (thanks post-preg hormones!😣) And these disgusting parasites, even after telling them I needed that money for food and rent for myself and my 2mo old baby... pushed me until I broke..
    They didn't care whether they made a mother and child homeless and starving (I did find help afterward, unfortunately pushing me into a living situation with an abusive @ss- I got out ASAP, but these cockroaches ruin lives)
    I was lucky in the end, more than some, but they need to all go down.
    I'm sorry for the long life story there, but as a former victim, I just want to thank you for what you do. You'll always have a fan. And again please know you're literally saving lives. (And I'll shut up now! 😄)

    Good save, Lewis. I tell you, I’m about at the point where I think adult children of elderly parents who could fall for a scam consider deleting their online banking app or taking them to their bank to have the manager warn them about scams. The general rule of not letting anyone they don’t know connect to their computer can be forgotten, or they could be coerced by a scammer. I don’t think a lot of people realize just how often scams are attempted on the elderly. My mother receives robocalls on practically a daily basis, sometimes more than one.

    Awesome Lewis & Kuds, best save I’ve heard for a long time. Please let us know if HK e-crime take actions, would be a fabulous ending to know “another one bites the dust”. These scammers are like cockroaches, one down & more appear. Keep up the good work. Have a great day, best wishes from South Australia 🇦🇺

    "But we all know how useless the Indian cyber crime police can be"-- absolutely true, otherwise those scammers could not be seen anymore.
    I appreciate that you are doing such a great job by saving scam victims. Needless to say that your head works extremely fast even during dangerous situations.

    Calling people and then telling them to type seemingly cryptic things into a run dialog is just reinforcing the idea that scammers doing weird things is normal.
    In future it might take longer, but opening control panel and clicking "add/remove programs or features" is a much smarter idea because it makes it much clearer what is being done and establishes an idea that legit people aren't going to be asking them to type random things into run dialogues.
