There was this dude that called me. He had a chinese accent saying the I recieve 50.000 dólares from the US government. I said right away it is a scam. It is very easy to know if someone is scaming you. You can smell the bullshit right away. I know this because I lived in Brasil for 14 years and got used to scammer calling me. There even a prison gang that does that in Brazil.
Whoever initially got in touch with you probably immediately gave the conversation over to a manager/"closer", someone higher up or even running the scam, when you mentioned you had already almost fallen for it and were wealthy etc. It's entirely possible the person you were talking to actually lives in LA, not some random contact.
Somebody is reuploading your ADVChina content on their own channel. I forget the name of the channel since I blocked them in my recommended videos feed, but if you do a youtube search of "china's most hated subculture" etc I'm sure you can find it and report if it that is what you want to do.
When a bot DM's me on socialmedia, I post a photo of 1989 Tank Man and ask them to identify the photo and event before before continuing to talk with them. It has a 100% success rate
You could have a lot more fun with scammers like this: 1. Get 2 different scammers to contact you on the same number 2. Set up a bot that relays any message from one to the other 3. Watch them try to eventually scam each other and get very confused 4. If it gets boring, send extra messages to one of them from "their" number ;P
@@PistonDriven yeah kitbogo or whatever his name is on twitch did it sometime ago. He’s the one that changes his voice to be like old lady or something lmao
man, i wished i saw this video before. but yeah, everything you said was exactly what happened to me. the only reason i didn't lose all my money was because my bank security features caught on and stop the transactions. thought i was too smart to get scammed, but daym they got me. now i know why. a lot of it is because your lonely and single, then suddenly someone starts noticing you. i think a lot of victims stems from this state of being. Anyways, you guys are doing good jobs at exposing these criminals... thanks.
The amount of random messages I get from these obviously fake accounts is hilarious... and they're always somehow interested in crypto. Brilliant vid and glad to see the channel is still going strong!
@@SpicyWoodsman I've been watching this channel forever now (going back to when I lived in Korea). I've just never commented with this username before lol
Yesterday I, actually, have blocked a person pretending to be from NYC saying that she plans to go to a library and visit ballet competition on a weekend and sending me ACTUAL video from New York City Ballet. I asked how long ago she arrived at NYC (because for me this behavior was not like people born in NY do and more like a tourist) and she told me that she is from China, arrived to New York just a few weeks ago and she is a half-chinese half-american. I didn't wait for this whole scam thing to unwind because the girl on a picture was clearly russian and image search pointed me to an actual russian instagramer but I was really impressed with that NY City Ballet footage - before scammers never went so deep trying to impersonate someone. They are evolving.
@ You may change your mind. When you watch your parents, go into their 90’s. They lose mental ability, get dementia. But are still legally, of sound mind.
I have met scammers, in the end I drive them to despair by wasting their time. Thanks to your youtube channels, I decided to learn English. I love you so much and I send you both a big hug. I really like your videos, both together and separately. Greetings from Mexico.👍🇲🇽
i had this happen to me last year and i unintentionally led them on for months before accepting to begin investing and going to their clearly fake site.. couldn't believe anyone would fall for it. funnily i couldn't even sign up if i wanted to, and when they told me to contact customer service it was totally broken. the meltdown they started having when they realized they wasted all their time was hilarious.
Somewhere around the world there's this beautiful woman with a tiny head really frustrated that she can't make new friends with people with the same interests as her
You kept saying 'She', but I think you are knowing on the other side is a 41 year old male scammer. Some good fun baiting them to devote their time and effort - to get nothing. You were awesome - stay awesome !
@@forlexer They're tag teaming their targets. It's like romance scammers, they often work solo, but larger well organized operations will have a team of people, so someone is always on duty to answer your texts 8 time zones away as if they were one state over or something, and they can lean on resources for specific things, like leaving voice messages, digging up info on racing cars, etc, to make the scam more convincing. So it is entirely possible the majority of the text conversation was done by some dude.
I've counter-scamers a few times, Chinese and Russian. The Chinese girl supposedly lived in the metropolitan area I live in, but could never arrange a meeting. She did send a photo of her with my name and the date on a piece of paper fairly quickly upon request. But the environment she was in was very institutional and almost forced-labor type.
Keeping them busy is actually a pretty fun hobby. The last one used a picture of a women in front of the taiwanese national library, in front of a taiwanese Owndays etc. and claimed to never have been to Taiwan. At that point I switched to mandarin and told them about their mistake... I love how inventive they get with insults. I told them before that I lived in Taiwan for 6 years. So of course I can see where those pictures were taken 🤣.
Let's not fool ourselves, pretty girls don't contact strangers to 'look for friend'. They are the literal magnets in real life, they're not deprived of human connections.
Use "deprived" not "depraved" please. Depraved means something horrible beyond measure, gross, sicko, etc Deprived means not having access to something, sometimes by coercion.
@@fincorrigan7139 I feel depraved is the correct word for these women, beauty is for love not to make a paycheck, Honestly I feel there is more merit in actual gold-diggers who marry for money atleast they provide a benefit to the scammed
I often reply to the scammers with "Oh, I remember you, we were discussing Tiannaman Square together. You we're saying that it was wrong of the government to kill all those people" Immediately they will respond in anger or stop communicating
@ Well first the response when I mentioned Tiannaman Square. Dead giveaway. Second it follows the exact same script as this video, so that's another sign. Finally they often send you a picture of a pretty 20s something Chinese girl. The later stuff is only a hint.
Happened to me recently, but just ask for specific pictures from them requesting certain clothing or hand gestures that are not the norm. Ends it pretty fast.
This turned out to be very interesting and insightful. I thought it'd just be a generic thing about scams, but the video and picture thing literally shook me.
They are on dating sites too. I was contacted twice within a week and it was so obvious the pictures of them wasn't real, they looked like pictures from ads. One of them was really quick to go into the crypto talk and I dismissed her really fast, the other one was more subtle and we talked for a few weeks before, out of the blue, she said she was watching the stock market. I knew what was coming right then. She asked what I knew about how crypto worked and I told her of course I knew, then she wanted me to invest just 10000 dollars. I told her to f off.
Tinder is full of these Chinese crypto scammers! I’ve had fun chatting with them to see how the scam unfolds and it’s amazing how in deep they are going now. On Tinder they immediately want to move to WhatsApp, so I use my burner phone numbers. They used to use mostly Hong Kong phone numbers but now they have phone numbers from the US! And they claim to be in the oddest towns, like Gardnerville, Nevada. Great video!
I deeply, personally appreciate your work. It is extremely difficult to express reality to the soft tourist crowd. You're doing great things. Thank you.
Thanks for another video on the pig butcher scam. I remember watching your first one and was thinking, holy shit! this is exactly what i have been getting verbatim! and like your reaction, i find them also to be a lot more "angry" when they realize you are not going to give any money to them. Also, I have noticed that they start asking lots of questions that could potentially be "security answers" to access your account. So be careful of that. I don't give any truthful answers to their questions. Between my long lost relatives dying in Africa and these wizards of Crypto, it is no wonder I am so rich! Keep up the great work!
I had that exact scam last year. Except this wasn't a "she" in my case or your's. They actually work in shifts, you can get replies from them around the clock, that's the give away. Your 'account' is handed over between shifts like a mine-shaft and they have supervisors and bots watching the continuity like in a proper movie production. This is industrial level scamming, that's why it is so good. Like you, the second the money was mentioned, I just stalled and stalled and made them hit a complete stone wall but softly. It was fun actuallly, then it just went dead one second to the next. From the second time onwards though this get old really fast
@14:49 I think it is Germany or close to Germany: it has the Umwelt sticker (to show your car is environmentally friendly enough to be allowed to drive in German city centers) on the front screen. No way a Porsche in China is going to have that sticker.
I have had this experience recently. Someone tried to engage a conversation with me calling my by another name from Asia. It is interesting how fast scams are constantly changing and evolving these days.
I appreciate you put focus on the fact the many scammers were scammed into scamming. They are practically slaves. It's sickening their lives are lost to making others loosing their money.
I get these often. I do not waste my time with them. The first one I assumed it was a wrong number but quickly figured out the scam. They just keep coming. Now I ignore them. There must be a way to stop them.
Scammers have definitely evolved. I wish the people that attempt to write the instructions in English for a Chinese-made product would evolve. I don't think there's anyone in China who can actually write instructions in English without misspellings and mangled sentences.
This exact thing actually happened to me. They stopped messaging once I mentioned that I was a security specialist, which is true. I provide software support for security guard tracking systems, but I'm sure what this person saw was security, tracking and specialist and thought that I was a waste of time. I never got far enough to receive any pictures. In any case thanks for the information. It's important to stay vigilant, but it is difficult if your ignorant.
I got contacted through Linkedin along the same lines. I run my own company and was contacted by a a Chinese lady in her 30s who also apparently ran her own company in my country. Her profile was very convincing, including all the right training, university, work experience etc. but her contacts seemed too random (people normally have related contacts in terms of business types or ocuupation). Also, I didn´t really understand why she was contacting me as my business had nothing to do with hers (first red flag - no pun intended). Her "angle" was that we were both foreigners doing business in the same country and somehow that gave us things to talk about. Long story short, I reverse imaged one of her pics and it was a stock photo so I just blocked her.
I have 2 times got wrong text messages that turned out to be "beautiful young" Chinese "women". They just happened to be crypto traders. I play along a bit and then dump them. You are so on point on their technique. The second one I passed off. I played along for days. Then I told her I find it so strange that you are the second beautiful Chinese wrong text I got in 2 months. Never heard from her again.
As you were describing her ability to provide up to date relevant images I pictured a room with a handful of people listening in on their headphones, working together to pull the scam off. Hedge fund manager, they likely pulled all their resources.
It's amazing that they can convince anyone with videos that don't even show themselves. I'd be requesting a series of custom pictures to verify their identity
If you wanna see the expert in Scam baiting, look up Pierogi on his channel Scammer Payback. He just had a long week of teaming up with other content creators like Karl Rock. He does Indian scammers, but I am sure he'd love to mess with some Chinese scammers too. Maybe you guys can team up!
I remember you talked about these chinese scammers about a year ago, and like the same WEEK I get people contacting me on Whatsapp. They say they live in the town I'm in but actually have some clothing business in hong kong. I see they are also on tinder now and they always go for the same scam. I used to chat with them for fun but now I just block
I talked to one of these scammers and got one to actually admit that it is a scam. However, the person admitted that he is a guy, not a woman, who is sending the message. He claims that there are a lot of people in Burma working in a large building. He said the owners are Chinese nationals, but most of the people who are sending the messages are from Burma.
Woah! Very interesting actually! I'd love to know more details about it! Perhaps u could make a blog or something to inform more people of what's really going on? DM me if u like.
Umm, There should be some messaging option here on YT right? 🤔 Or just keep writing here. Perhaps this would be a big scoop for Serpentza and Laowhy to investigate and make public.
I had one of these contact me. It was the supposed oh i typed in the wrong number thing. asking me if I had her golf clubs from last weekend. she was supposedly in Manhattan but origially from China. I had watched the previous video you had on these scammers and recognized it right away. when I said I was not a golfer she sent me pictures of her allegedly jogging in new york and having coffee. Then came the crypto pitch. but i turned it around and sent her articles about how she should avoid crypto that it china and several other countries have either banned crypto or made it illegal for banks to deal in crypto. she kept trying for a bit but i kept sending her articles on how more countries were considering banning crypto and she gave up.
Mr Shedgin Pink and you're director of a small confectionary and preserves with your partner Dr Ernest Ore. Say you had a chinese business partner you haven't heard from in a while called Tian Moon of Square Holdings LLC.
This is great! I cant tell you how many of these scammers have hit my Instagram lately...Nice pull of the green Porsche That's Newcomb's Ranch just up the hill from my house in LA!
When I get one of those, 'hey Andy', I will answer right back Hey Millie. Then the inevitable 'Sorry I got the wrong number' To which I usually reply 'classic Millie'
Never a dull moment with the motorcycle raconteurs. The mini head bombshell was a hilarious ! Much better than Nigerian princes who need an American money transfer.
these scammers are such noobs, if you're gonna scam me don't use the picture of a hot chick because a hot chick would never approach me to begin with LOL
usually, when I realize that I am texting with a Chinese scammer I tell them that "I am also chatting with another person who is in love with Chinese culture and love doing things 差不多, and if they know what it means". Then enjoy the conversation.
When Covid started, I would post ads on pen pal sites searching for scammers. it's scary how many are out there. It's also amazes me how many gullible people there are willing to get scammed.
Anytime you want to end a conversation with a chinese scammer, just ask them about the Tiananmen square massacre, the CCP will just shut them down for you! 🤣
haha these scammers are all over local American Tinder Bumble and Hinge profiles. Its always too good to be true and they never pass any of even the most simple verification steps/tests
I received this kind of scam on Line App. She asked me why I was on her friend recommend list. I told her that must be a mistake and asked her to deleted it. She told me we can be friends. She told me she is 38 years old lives in LA and sent me a picture of a Chinese lady looks like a 45 years old living in mansion enjoying life. We chat about 5 days and as soon as she found out I was a police officer, she stopped all communication with me after that. I didn't tell her I'm a police officer at first, she asked me what I do for a living. I told her I working for government. On the 5th day, she asked me about what is my responsibility at my job. I gave her some clues to guess and she asked me if I'm a police officer. I told her yes, that when she stopped. It another waste of her time talking to me
This was hilarious! Well done👍 I wonder what if you suggest a zoom call to discuss further details of a "potential investment"😄 It would be harder to fake a live video!
I’ve just received one of these messages for the first time on my WhatsApp. It’s an Asian woman and starts with the opening line “Hey Paul do you want to play golf in London next week?”. Was instantly reminded of this video.
Maybe you got the "special" treatment, like a dedicated scammer focusing solely on you, because you mentioned at the start that you were some kind of hedgefond manager and a big fish in their eyes.
Had one of these show up in my email once. Pictures was obviosly lifted from a porn mag. So i started asking about pictures of her wearing more clothes so i could show them to my Mother. This resulted in a lot of hillarously bad photoshops.
I don't have the patience to string them along like you do, so I'll usually talk about how evil the CCP is, and berate them if they try to defend Winnie-the-pooh.
I did something similar over text messages back 15 years ago. The man actually called me. Very heavy foreign accent. He actually threatened me, saying don't know who I am and what I'm capable of. I kept up the hustle, and said i just want get into what you guys got going on. Lol. He kept threatening so i disconnected. He called once more, i did not pick up.
I have had SO many of these scammers pop up on telegram. I broadcast my location for fun, and it always says their within 5 kilometres and always use the same script. Introduction, claim they like travel, etc etc, and start about crypto. It's hilarious, they always slip up. They're not getting my crypto, but i love sending screenshots and wasting their time 😂
I recently had one claiming to be from "HongKong, China". She stopped chatting when I told her that only someone from mainland would feel the need to add "China" after Hongkong.
Excellent video. Recently I intentionally lead on a scammer until they asked for money and this one actually got so angry that she or he posted videos on RUclips that I want to murder my wife! RUclips is taking their damn time in removing the videos.
Once I saw an ad on some gig site looking to hire people to provide photos from their area. Or maybe they asked for videos.. I don't remember. Poster claimed to be 3d designer looking for material from which to create 3d models of places. Wouldn't surprise me if these scammers posted gigs like this for people to drive around while recording the streets.

@14:49 I think it is Germany or close to Germany: it has the Umwelt sticker (to show your car is environmentally friendly enough to be allowed to drive in German city centers) on the front screen. No way a Porsche in China is going to have that sticker.
I have had this experience recently. Someone tried to engage a conversation with me calling my by another name from Asia. It is interesting how fast scams are constantly changing and evolving these days.
I appreciate you put focus on the fact the many scammers were scammed into scamming.
They are practically slaves. It's sickening their lives are lost to making others loosing their money.
I get these often. I do not waste my time with them. The first one I assumed it was a wrong number but quickly figured out the scam. They just keep coming. Now I ignore them. There must be a way to stop them.
There is, but it’s against international human rights law
Scammers have definitely evolved. I wish the people that attempt to write the instructions in English for a Chinese-made product would evolve. I don't think there's anyone in China who can actually write instructions in English without misspellings and mangled sentences.
This exact thing actually happened to me. They stopped messaging once I mentioned that I was a security specialist, which is true. I provide software support for security guard tracking systems, but I'm sure what this person saw was security, tracking and specialist and thought that I was a waste of time. I never got far enough to receive any pictures.
In any case thanks for the information. It's important to stay vigilant, but it is difficult if your ignorant.
I got contacted through Linkedin along the same lines. I run my own company and was contacted by a a Chinese lady in her 30s who also apparently ran her own company in my country. Her profile was very convincing, including all the right training, university, work experience etc. but her contacts seemed too random (people normally have related contacts in terms of business types or ocuupation). Also, I didn´t really understand why she was contacting me as my business had nothing to do with hers (first red flag - no pun intended). Her "angle" was that we were both foreigners doing business in the same country and somehow that gave us things to talk about. Long story short, I reverse imaged one of her pics and it was a stock photo so I just blocked her.
I have 2 times got wrong text messages that turned out to be "beautiful young" Chinese "women". They just happened to be crypto traders. I play along a bit and then dump them.
You are so on point on their technique. The second one I passed off. I played along for days. Then I told her I find it so strange that you are the second beautiful Chinese wrong text I got in 2 months.
Never heard from her again.
should tell them i like older women ha ha ha ha
It's always fun to piss off, scammers.
Stay Awesome!
It's here in the States too.
"OH Hai! I'm from Texas...send me giftcards!"
As you were describing her ability to provide up to date relevant images I pictured a room with a handful of people listening in on their headphones, working together to pull the scam off. Hedge fund manager, they likely pulled all their resources.
I suspect the freakout was a final hail Mary, hoping you'd be apologetic and desperate to keep talking to "her" and rush to "invest."
You guys are so good. Thanks a lot for exposing the scammers
9:20 nice, love it. Trolling isn't completely a dead art
It's amazing that they can convince anyone with videos that don't even show themselves. I'd be requesting a series of custom pictures to verify their identity
Beware of two men who wear motorcycle jackets sitting in a chair with a video of motorcycling in the background. It's a front for a VPN sales pitch.
😃 the more I watch these two guys, the more I am informed...
I lowkey hope we get a new series of Winston baiting scammers now! It’s actually hilarious 😂
If you wanna see the expert in Scam baiting, look up Pierogi on his channel Scammer Payback. He just had a long week of teaming up with other content creators like Karl Rock. He does Indian scammers, but I am sure he'd love to mess with some Chinese scammers too. Maybe you guys can team up!
Brilliant!
His yesterday's live occasionally popped up for me yesterday, it was hard to stop watching even though it was 3 AM here
I remember you talked about these chinese scammers about a year ago, and like the same WEEK I get people contacting me on Whatsapp. They say they live in the town I'm in but actually have some clothing business in hong kong. I see they are also on tinder now and they always go for the same scam. I used to chat with them for fun but now I just block
I talked to one of these scammers and got one to actually admit that it is a scam. However, the person admitted that he is a guy, not a woman, who is sending the message. He claims that there are a lot of people in Burma working in a large building. He said the owners are Chinese nationals, but most of the people who are sending the messages are from Burma.
Woah! Very interesting actually! I'd love to know more details about it! Perhaps u could make a blog or something to inform more people of what's really going on? DM me if u like.
@@jimost7214 Sure. How can I do that?
Umm, There should be some messaging option here on YT right? 🤔 Or just keep writing here. Perhaps this would be a big scoop for Serpentza and Laowhy to investigate and make public.
I had one of these contact me. It was the supposed oh i typed in the wrong number thing. asking me if I had her golf clubs from last weekend. she was supposedly in Manhattan but origially from China. I had watched the previous video you had on these scammers and recognized it right away. when I said I was not a golfer she sent me pictures of her allegedly jogging in new york and having coffee.
Then came the crypto pitch. but i turned it around and sent her articles about how she should avoid crypto that it china and several other countries have either banned crypto or made it illegal for banks to deal in crypto. she kept trying for a bit but i kept sending her articles on how more countries were considering banning crypto and she gave up.
My conversion with these scammers always stops when I said "My name is JinPing and I love Honey".
Good one 😄😄😄
Mr Shedgin Pink and you're director of a small confectionary and preserves with your partner Dr Ernest Ore. Say you had a chinese business partner you haven't heard from in a while called Tian Moon of Square Holdings LLC.
This is great! I cant tell you how many of these scammers have hit my Instagram lately...Nice pull of the green Porsche That's Newcomb's Ranch just up the hill from my house in LA!
When I get one of those, 'hey Andy', I will answer right back
Hey Millie.
Then the inevitable
'Sorry I got the wrong number'
To which I usually reply
'classic Millie'
Never a dull moment with the motorcycle raconteurs. The mini head bombshell was a hilarious ! Much better than Nigerian princes who need an American money transfer.
A slow week. I only got 3 scammer messages this week
these scammers are such noobs, if you're gonna scam me don't use the picture of a hot chick because a hot chick would never approach me to begin with LOL
usually, when I realize that I am texting with a Chinese scammer I tell them that "I am also chatting with another person who is in love with Chinese culture and love doing things 差不多, and if they know what it means". Then enjoy the conversation.
What does it mean?
@@Thought.Strings cha bu duo
@@Thought.Strings half-arsed.
thanks, got strung by one of these, figure the next one I should waste their time just to discourage them
When Covid started, I would post ads on pen pal sites searching for scammers. it's scary how many are out there. It's also amazes me how many gullible people there are willing to get scammed.
Anytime you want to end a conversation with a chinese scammer, just ask them about the Tiananmen square massacre, the CCP will just shut them down for you! 🤣
if its too good to be true, then its too good to be true
Lol ... no good deed goes unpunished ... never "help" someone online you have never met irl
There is no more deeply moving religious experience than cheating a cheater -Mel Gibson as Maverick
Fun fact: you can reverse image search any image they send you to find out the original source.
Dudes.....pretty psychic was just thinking about this scam and here is this video!
haha these scammers are all over local American Tinder Bumble and Hinge profiles. Its always too good to be true and they never pass any of even the most simple verification steps/tests
I received this kind of scam on Line App. She asked me why I was on her friend recommend list. I told her that must be a mistake and asked her to deleted it. She told me we can be friends. She told me she is 38 years old lives in LA and sent me a picture of a Chinese lady looks like a 45 years old living in mansion enjoying life. We chat about 5 days and as soon as she found out I was a police officer, she stopped all communication with me after that. I didn't tell her I'm a police officer at first, she asked me what I do for a living. I told her I working for government. On the 5th day, she asked me about what is my responsibility at my job. I gave her some clues to guess and she asked me if I'm a police officer. I told her yes, that when she stopped. It another waste of her time talking to me
This was hilarious! Well done👍 I wonder what if you suggest a zoom call to discuss further details of a "potential investment"😄 It would be harder to fake a live video!
the good thing is you've kept the scammer working, and wasted his time.
I feel left out. Haven't even got a scammer chic
Great video guys.
Isnt scamming the most international activity worldwide?
I’ve just received one of these messages for the first time on my WhatsApp. It’s an Asian woman and starts with the opening line “Hey Paul do you want to play golf in London next week?”. Was instantly reminded of this video.
Maybe you got the "special" treatment, like a dedicated scammer focusing solely on you, because you mentioned at the start that you were some kind of hedgefond manager and a big fish in their eyes.
Had one of these show up in my email once. Pictures was obviosly lifted from a porn mag. So i started asking about pictures of her wearing more clothes so i could show them to my Mother. This resulted in a lot of hillarously bad photoshops.
That's great, would've took a lot of time
I get catfish attempts all the time on just about every device I have and it seems it’s grown exponentially within the past five months. Weird.
Awesome effort...., made for a very entertaining video lol 😂
RUclips appears to be hiding your channel. I've been watching for about seven years or so, maybe five, and I've had to look for your uploads lately.
I don't have the patience to string them along like you do, so I'll usually talk about how evil the CCP is, and berate them if they try to defend Winnie-the-pooh.
That is a great way to quickly break through the scam. Scammers tend to be incredibly sensitive to criticism of things they love.
I did something similar over text messages back 15 years ago. The man actually called me. Very heavy foreign accent. He actually threatened me, saying don't know who I am and what I'm capable of. I kept up the hustle, and said i just want get into what you guys got going on. Lol. He kept threatening so i disconnected. He called once more, i did not pick up.
If there's any rule you should stick to online, it's never ever send any cash.
The fact "she" knew anout the cars means it was actually a guy
I have had SO many of these scammers pop up on telegram. I broadcast my location for fun, and it always says their within 5 kilometres and always use the same script.
Introduction, claim they like travel, etc etc, and start about crypto.
It's hilarious, they always slip up.
They're not getting my crypto, but i love sending screenshots and wasting their time 😂
They probably use an app similar to Google Lens which tells you what's on the picture. I tried that and Lens did recognize Porsche 718 easily.
Always enjoy your content, hilarious entertainment! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The voice messages are probably through a voice-change app. Great document.
I recently had one claiming to be from "HongKong, China". She stopped chatting when I told her that only someone from mainland would feel the need to add "China" after Hongkong.
Excellent video. Recently I intentionally lead on a scammer until they asked for money and this one actually got so angry that she or he posted videos on RUclips that I want to murder my wife! RUclips is taking their damn time in removing the videos.
exposing chinese scammers can make for another channel
Always happens, but just ask to video chat with them and they soon disappear
Once I saw an ad on some gig site looking to hire people to provide photos from their area. Or maybe they asked for videos.. I don't remember. Poster claimed to be 3d designer looking for material from which to create 3d models of places. Wouldn't surprise me if these scammers posted gigs like this for people to drive around while recording the streets.
I love the intro and that insult is gold
Had it recently but I was aware of this kind of scam so after a few messages blocked them. It is good to talk about it.
