Will Scammers Notice I'm Using Windows 3.11?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- I installed a ~28 year old operating system known as windows 3.11 to see if it would stop tech support scammers from going through their script. The results were pretty hilarious.

I don't think there will ever be a better operating system...
Agreed
First
i agree.
Very entertaining operating system
Windows Really Good edition blows this version out of the water 😂 😂
Never trust a tech support person who sees "C:\WINDOWS>" and assumes you have a Linux machine.
export PS1='C:\WINDOWS>'
To be fair, there are Linux distros that LOOK like old operating systems, but are actually Linux. Pretty sure you can get a Windows 3.1 emulator on Linux. That MIGHT be why he kept insisting it was Linux. Though the VirtualBox thing should have given it away immediately.
@@RubberGopher Good advice! I think kitboga was using VBox on top of Windows 10 though..... I'm so sick of Windows. Will it ever finally die and stay dead??
@@xapienz HACKERMAN!
@@johnsmithe4656 "That MIGHT be why he kept insisting it was Linux." very unlikely... was doing the most basic asumption that if it is not the operating system that he knows then it must be linux(that he do not knows).
Test the scammers' patience by throttling your Internet speed to 56k and telling them you're on dial-up.
Yeah I'm sure that won't affect his stream at all..LOL
@@czhaok he can probably figure it how to only affect the program doing the screenshare, not his whole internet speed. he's done more complex things already
I'd say more like 600k is the modern absolute minimum (basically how 56K was until the 2010s)
That would be beautiful
😆
The fact they’re able to screen share with windows 3.1 and not raise any red flags is impressive
Exactly lol
Typically would have been a dial-up also. 😂
So maybe im just that stupid but can somebody explain please how the fuck does this work ? he didn't show how they connected but im so confused how is he sharing screen thru that vm ?
Or another question if they are sharing screen thru his windows 10 how the fuck did the scammers think they have acces to the pc ? im so confused wtf
@@maromega432 black magic
@@maromega432 You can see it at the 10th minute. He has a VM on his machine and just goes fullscreen with windows 3.11 when they connect to him
The funniest bit is the mental gymnastics as they try to explain how and why hackers would break into such an obsolete system to delete an old lady's printer drivers.
😂
I'm not understanding how you can be so dumb
its called ransomware,its very common,the hacker doesnt care about the files,the point is the person being hacked does lol
Yeah dude, your articulation of this is funny too. It's all so absurd
@@deenman23The point OP was trying to make was that ransomeware wouldn’t even be viable on a system with a non existent install base.
To me the most surprising part is that not a single tech ever questioned how they were able to remotely connect to a Windows 3.1 device in the first place.
LOL That was the first thing that ran through my mind. 🤣
Same here. My first thought was that there was no way this would ever work. Nobody would look at that and think it was real.
Well obviously they could, since he's using Linux
@@justineberlein5916 He's not
what ? the first caller knew it was linux (or a VM) because they couldnt have Anydesk on a win3.1 machine, it's pretty clear in the audio. But the naïve acting of Kitboga saves the situation.
"Are you using android or iphone?"
"I'm using a Nokia" had me on the floor.
I'm still using it, cause I don't want to lose my files
"It's quite old". RIP to all the recent new Nokia phones that are actually pretty decent Android phones.
I mean newer Nokia's run on Android...
I'm using a landline phone hope this help
Should have said Blackberry
“What do you use this computer for?” “Entertainment” well he’s not wrong haha
"No you use it to make software, this is Linux"
Lmao when he kept insisting it was Linux, kit was getting visibly irritated
"Der' is no entertainment here"
@@frankmarano1118 He obviously never had access to an IBM-compatible PC in 1994... DooM was literally installed on the PC, best entertainment ever made ;)
😂😂😂😂
Ski-Free!!! I have to get that right now.
To be fair, trying to show someone that you can use your computer for entertainment, then typing in 3-4 different terminal commands each resulting in a different error, is about the most linux thing possible.
It would be a Linux thing if it was Linux
They didn't result in different errors... They were extremely generic "unknown command" errors.

She didn't even flinch when you said your computer is 28 years old. Priceless.
I don't think she even heard it. I don't think they're actually listening to what people say, there's a script in front of them, they read it and sometimes react to possibly related to the script information in some way.

I love how the scammers are too young to recognize Windows 3.1 😂
He keeps insisting it's Linux.
What modern Linux looks like windows 3.1?
@@GarryGri while technically any distro could with the right GUI customizations, I don't think Linux has EVER looked like Win 3.1. This scammer is just a dope. That's why I thought it was so funny he thought it was Linux. The dude is like, "I'm not familiar with this.... I know there's this other OS smart people use that's called Linux. Yah, this must be Linux."

Tbh I'm almost 32 and I've been using computers since I was 4-5 and I don't recognize it either.
@@Ghost-wz7tc Oh you're just a youngling. Sounds like you started using computers right after Windows 95 came out. Well, back in my day Windows 3.1 was everywhere. We even had Windows 3.11 in our middle school's computer lab.
The old Windows "ta-da!" sound never ceases to crack me up
every time
old roblox pilfered it
The absolute despair of the first person when he said, "This is MS DOS...?" Was priceless. He has never seen DOS in his life, I bet.
The funny part is MS made it part of the core of windows for terminal use.
@@Enonymouse_ Oh, DOS is used everywhere, Lowe's cash registers run on DOS.
@@elimanic7925 hehe last I checked point of sale systems that weren't MS based ran on some kind of Unix/Linux type thing. I forgot what the name is but Costco used it for ages, probably still does.
I've seen various fast food places run virtual machines or VT's that involve command prompt for some reason.
I wonder if the scammer was crying inside? Lmao
If he'd seen DOS he'd have recognised the fact that this was _not_ DOS. No GUI in DOS lol
(to clarify - what I meant was that DOS is command line, Windows has a GUI. When I think of using DOS, I think of typing backslashes and stuff, not clicking on folders, etc, like the scammer can in this video.)
You jokingly said at 3:00 that your computer has 28 MB of memory, but that was actually way more than these computers used to have. I remember it was a momentous event when I upgraded my AST Advantage computer (running Windows 3.11) from 8 MB to 12 MB for the low low price of *$300* ! (over $500 today after inflation)
(Old specs: AST Advantage Adventure 6066d PC Computer, Cyrix 486DX2 66MHz processor, 12MB RAM, 540MB HDD)
i remember when i was a kid being unable to play Age of Mythology, like "damn, it takes 64mb of RAM! I only have 32mb!" lol, and that was when computers were already starting to get faster. Couple years back i bought a 16gb stick of RAM for my lappy for like $80 🤣
Dude at some point I upgraded my 386SX from 1MB to 4MB of RAM
@Peniley Majorey You can get 128GB sticks today, so I don't think it will take 20 years for them to become the mainstream option.
Doom? 🧐

that wasn't 22 years ag... oh wait. Where did all those years go?
I remember a kid in my class bet the teacher 1,000 dollars nothing would happen. The teacher was such a cocky idiot he took the bet. And of course he didn’t pay up. He spent most of his money on stocking up for doomsday and telling people he’d shoot anyone that came for his precious food.

I've never seen someone playing Doom passive aggressively before.
always hate it when hackers remove your printer drivers. I once couldn't turn in a school assignment for this very reason, I swear...
Mine activated the Bluetooth connected shredding paper machine just when I fell with my homework, truely evil 🥺
A scammer told me to take pen and paper and write down his code. The only paper I had was my homework, so I wrote it at the bottom. Then he said I *absolutely* wasn't allowed to share that with anyone. I had to tell I was buying a restaurant in Thailand for a friend instead. Teacher could not make sense of it and I failed.
But fortunately I still succeeded in getting a job without a diploma. I work in Tech City Hyderabad now, solving social security crime cases, no less.
Sure it wasn´t the dog that ate it;)

How did the scammers not just immediately realize what’s going on and hang up?! Honestly! How blinded by greed do you have to be to not just immediately realize you’re being played!
I guess they care about people's money, and not their system. 😆
Because it's a 'work'.
Yeah the hacking is so organized over there that they get paid an hourly wage
Because he is too young to know what 3.11 is.
Makes for good comedy at least

Even after being called out they keep going. They are devoid of any conscience.
I see what you did there
Scammers are like a computer program i guess. They can only do what someone else told them. If they run into errors, they are helpless.

Something about Program Manager just feels so good.
Beautify is in the eye of the beholder I guess
is the scammer connected and seeing windows 3.1?
Yep!
It's from a different time where nobody had any idea if what they were doing was right. Things from that era have a very unique charm to them.

I did this to a Microsoft scammer once. I was playing around with Windows 3.11 (because it's the first windows with built in networking) in a VM and a scammer called. I played the role of an old man. When the technician started telling me where to go, I kept saying that I can't find what he's saying...This went on for almost 2 hours and escalated up the chain to 4 different techs. Finally, the boss got on the phone and said that Windows 3.11 was too old and that I needed to upgrade. Still playing the old man, I said, "well, you're Microsoft, right? So why don't you upgrade me now while we're on the phone. I'll pay you. I got my credit card right here". He hated me telling me that because that meant I was an easy mark, but they had no way to take my money that I was so readily to part with. He kept telling me that I needed to buy a new computer. I said, why, when this one works perfectly fine. I don't need the newest and latest of everything...I told him that my 1950 Buick Roadmaster was still running great from when I bought it new. My 1949 Zenith Refrigerator still works and my Philco TV still gets the local channels! I said that's the problem with you young folk...don't know the value of things because you don't keep them long enough to value them! He insisted that he can't work on my computer because it's too old! I said, that it wasn't too old when I bought it in 1994! I said that I got a free copy of Lotus 123 and Wordstar which I still use! I kept this fool on the line for another hour!
That was fun! I enjoyed myself with that one!
Love this!!! 😂😂😂
what a legend
Lotus 123! hilarious, man

Every time the scammers doesn't understand what they see or hear, they just continue their script in blind.
When he typed in that there were hackers, you should have typed some fake command like "hackers be gone" and then "All hackers removed. One scammer still in place."

I know Intel had some issues with division back then but I had no idea it was that bad. Imagine if he tried something with a repeating decimal. Or even a divide by zero.

Seeing them still continue to try to scam an "elderly" person on such an old machine goes to show how cold they are. An elderly person in that position likely has no family to guide them into upgrading, and they are probably broke as well.
Could be also a force of habit and convenience... or the hardware still manages to do the tasks just fine. Like I heard they use Win95 machines in some universities for some software development tasks and light computing, there was an autoshop that still used Commodore 64. Same goes with phones and other hardware - one can still go and buy a Texas Instruments graphing calculator for some 130 USD. Feels like you could buy an old Win95 laptop for the money that could do so much more. "Why waste money on Magnavox Odyssey when you have a perfectly good oscilloscope at home?" is what probably someone's parent told someone at some point.

Im not even exactly sure what their goal is? Do they try to lie to you in order to extort money out of you? I don’t even understand who this could possibly work on
@@Rokaize They target people who are not tech-savvy, show them advanced looking things they don't understand (or make something up) and claim it's a huge security issue. Then charge large amounts of money for "fixing" it.
Another variant is guilt-baiting, where the scammers make the non-tech-savvy victims feel like they messed up in some way and then demand a "correction", which involves sending a lot of money. A lot of honest elderly people can fall for that.
For example they can call about a 50 dollar refund but make it seem like 500 was sent instead while processing it (all fake). Then demand 450 from the victim as a "correction".
Imho, they are scammers, not hackers.
No one said their hackers
scammers not hackers smoothbrain
It is funny how out of character Kitboga went with this and the scammer still wasted lots of time. Kitboga played the role of some very tech-savvy old lady when scammers would be expected to waste more time on a lady that knew nothing.
I think a lot of these call centers penalize the scammers if they're the ones that hang up the call, to make sure they don't go "soft" on their victims, which is why they'll spend several more minutes insulting Kit trying to get HIM to hang up on them.
I think Kit more just wanted to hear what bs the scammers would come up with to try and scam money since this is such a unique situation
I just sent this video to my dad, who has been working in IT since the early 80s (and still going strong!). I wish I could see his reaction in person, but I can’t wait to call and hear his thoughts about it 🤣🤣 Thanks as always for the great content, Kit ♥️

Try 2017 Honda CRF 250l rally
I always say "It's a 1953 Studebaker Champion"
I tell them I have a 2019 Nova. One person told me to go fk myself once haha
A friend got one of these calls while we were hanging out on Discord. He put them on speaker for the whole group to enjoy.
The car warranty scam script starts with them trying to get you to tell them what car you have. He answered in variations of "Which car?". Consistently implied he owns more than one, without spelling it out for the scammer. Kept pressuring the scammer to identify which specific vehicle he is calling about.
Cue 5 minutes of "Which car?" "Your car" "Which car?" as the scammer cycled through his script lines, trying to get the make and model of "the car".
How this dude doesn't burst out laughing or have the patience to deal with these assholes in general is a mystery to me. When they call me I get fed up after 10 minutes and tell them to hurry up and beg for gift cards. For some reason they hang up immediately. 😆🤣😂
Same longest I've been able to last is 2 minutes. Gotta work on my stamina...
@@nad663 I hear that voice on the phone trying to steal from my 90yr old mother and I'm RAGIN !

the more people like us who know this kind of scam well we make these scammers waste time and the less time they have to scam people who unfortunately fall into this kind of scam.
Lmao
Oh man, these just keep getting better and better. I lost it when the scammer tried to claim DOOM gives you ads which somehow lets you get hacked. 🤣
Bruh, I installed doom on my calculator and got hacked. He's right...
You should do this for even older computers and operating systems (via an emulator), like for the Commodore Amiga, Commodore 64 and Sinclair ZX Spectrum ... complete with tape-loading apps. It would be hilarious to have the scammers have to wait minutes for those tapes to load up the ancient software. 🤣
Yes!!!
Amiga 500 would be great as it's Workbench looks Windows-ish.
ZX81 with HUUUGE 16kb rampack on the back. Mine was so unstable, if a dog farted 3 streets away, the air pressure change from the blast was enough to nudge the power lead to make it crash. I'm surprised the SAS don't have them installed in buildings that they need to practice clearing safely and stealthily. Anyone who can tiptoe past a running ZX81 without making it crash has some seriously high level Ninja skills.
Ah yes, the dredded ram pack wobble! Lost a fair bit of my own coding and also programmes I'd typed in from magazines because of that. Also some for the "keys" on the membrane keypad would get extremely hot and burn my fingers when it had been on all day.
I once told a scammer I had an Amiga 4000/40 (well I do in the loft) when he asked what computer I had, and he asked what version of windows it was running. I think I told him was running Workbench 3.0 and probably mentioned Intuition and AmigaDos, he had no idea what an Amiga was, so the conversation went round and round for a few minutes until I hung up. Would be funny to actually set one up and allow remote access.
This was hilarious! Lol next time just create a VM where every program they try to run or every command they try to execute opens doom. You'd have to change the binaries, icons and create some aliases but that'd be golden.
amazing
My friend changed the theme in my computer so everytime I clicked on anything it went ROAAaarrrr using the doom game sounds and I couldn't shut it off
Priceless 🎉😂😅
YES!
funny, but there's an issue, you can't replace those shortcuts.
The best was when a "Microsoft Tech" called about my windows errors, when I was running a Linux system. And when I explained that I'm not even using Windows, he straight out called me a liar and told me he could see what I am doing on my computer! I laughed at him and hung up.
I wonder what wouldve happened if you didnt hung up
Last I checked, anyone on the phone with MS was deep into existing problems - the $350/hour kind that are the developer variety. MS never cold calls desktop users.
@@flinch622 absolutely never. Too bad most don’t know that
why would microsoft even call you if you were running linux
@@QuantumScratcher They wouldn't....Dude was a scammer.
"it's called a NOkia!" "I'm a little busy right now" playing doom "I'm saving the world right now"
I'm fucking dying right now
OMG, my first computer was an IBM PC/XT in the DOS and BASIC days. I remember when Windows 3.1 was new. Thanks for the SkiFree flashback - I was so addicted to that game! This and the Win95 video are bringing back some great memories, like WordPad and AmericaOnline disks. I recently discovered your channel, and the way you educate people while making us laugh until we can't breathe is great!
How are you still alive?

It's so funny watching Kit trying to hold himself back from laughing hysterically, lol!
That’s my favorite part!
I started messing around with computers around the Windows 95 era, but this is still so nostalgic to look at
Your IP ADDRESS IS BEEN HACKED
Windows 95 is nostalgic. This is just arcane.
"The hackers have installed Windows 3.11 and deleted all your files. To stop the hackers you need to spend all your money in your bank account to buy Target gift cards. OK"
I cant believe he typed ERROR lol when you said 14/4. It just shows how stupid they really are, i laughed so hard lol.
Watching your videos literally saved my dad‘s ass the other day. True story! never would’ve thought in 1 million years that watching random videos on RUclips would actually do any good. Watched one of your scammer videos a couple months ago and I actually saw it happen in real life while I was at my fathers house the other day. I knew immediately what was going on. I didn’t get there in time before they actually transferred money from his Charles Schwab account but I was early enough to get in touch with Charles Schwab compliance and fraud prevention and you probably saved my dad thousands so thank you!
THIS is why everyone watching this needs to make sure all their family and friends who may be computer illiterate know to be very suspicious..
@@SteveJones172pilot my dad is the type who is very tech illiterate, but thinks he is way smarter than he actually is. we literally left him alone in the house for 2 hours while my mum had to get surgery and in that time he got called by a scammer (not sure how often you get this specific one in other countries but in the UK a common scam call is someone pretending to be an ISP and threatening that your internet will be shut off if you don't comply). in just that short amount of time they were so threatening and urging that he was convinced by them even though we didn't even use the ISP they were imitating. he has brain damage meaning he struggles with critical thinking and so he did the entire thing of installing a remote access software and logging into the savings account. the only reason they didn't get away with it is because they got greedy and tried to take _everything we had_ and the bank saw a bunch of transfers of £3000+ multiple times into a random account, it flagged up some kind of fraud detection, and they stopped every transaction and froze the account.
don't get me wrong my dads a dickhead and I don't like him, but even despite how I feel about him it made me so fucking angry. how can they so callously trick a clearly confused and disabled old man, who was saying the entire time "oh i'm really not sure I should be doing this, I'm worried, my wife deals with the money but she's having surgery" and still sleep at night? we live below the poverty line, if they hadn't been so greedy and not flagged the fraud detection they'd have literally ruined our lives. it was genuinely so surreal to come home and see the exact remote access programs that I see in scam baiting videos installed on his pc. I backed up his important files and then wiped the whole pc just to be on the safe side. we had to have a serious talk with him about what to look out for in scams and especially that its always better to be suspicious and he no longer has the login for the savings account (at his own request). I agree so much, please please talk to your friends and family who might be vulnerable to these kind of scams! it literally ruins lives
@@SteveJones172pilot absolutely! Not only did my dad suffer emotionally from this but physically as well. He used to be quiet the alpha male and ran a large company back in the day. He had a stroke last year and is now almost child like in his behavior. This was a VERY upsetting experience for him coming to the realization that’s he’s not all there anymore and his baby girl (even though I’m old now too) had to rescue him. He was very appreciative but extremely humiliated and it broke my heart. These scammers are scum of the earth. So grateful I watched these videos. Everyone should share with their family and friends.
@@alexmichelle7721 So sorry to hear what you're going through (and him!!) I have the same situation going too.. 85 year old stepfather who used to own and run a software company before becoming a lawyer, but he's had a few small strokes and now gets very frustrated he can't really understand the computer anymore. Getting old sucks, but it beats NOT getting old I guess.. Anyone who would take advantage of someone like this are definitely scum as you said!!
@@FelineBlue Hey, we all have trouble inside our familys. This does not mean that outsiders can be forgiven to give trouble to our family members. After we dealt with them, we can go back to fight against each other as usuall :)
"Hello Microsoft? I think my computer's gained sentience." I've never laughed so hard!!
I love Kit's videos because they're both entertaining and educational! I've learned a lot from watching him and other scam baiters. Yesterday my knowledge was put into action when I was checking out at Dollar General and happened to notice a man who was on the phone with someone while looking at gift cards. The more I observed, the more warning signs there were that a scam was in progress. I alerted the cashier and she went to see what was going on. As I left, I saw the man walking out, no longer on the phone and having bought nothing. Thanks to Kit bringing awareness to how these scammers operate, someone was spared becoming a victim.
You are amazing for speaking up and trying to save someone from being scammed
Dollar General must pay you real well for you to protect their property like that.
Kit must be older than I thought - or he's a heck of a tech history student. The Windows 3.11 gag was funny but when he pulled in others, like the Y2K thing, that was impressive. I was on-call and on-site all night on 1/1/2000 because they thought the world was going to end. I would bet I'm old enough to be Kit's Dad but the breadth and depth of his IT Tech knowledge, combined with his improv skills, is amazing to me.
I was born june 3rd 1990. I remember Y2K thing vaguely but the hysteria around it was hilarious looking back.
I was 6 when Y2K happened and I've a memory of it, you don't need to be that old lol
I was 3 when Y2K craze happened, and since I lived in Asia, the panic was made early due to the 1998 Financial Crisis.
Anyone who's born between the 2000s - 2005s would also have learned about the Impact of Y2K because of the residual scare from it was still oozing out, and their older siblings or parents won't stop talking about it
@Adam O'Brien yeah Y2K was pretty prominent
@@jordan_roadhouse4798 I was also born in 1990, and the Y2K thing made me laugh because my Dad is a techie. He said nothing was going to happen and I believed him and he was right. The hysteria of it was funny to me.
18:20 The fact that he's trying so hard to made it look like it has AI on it to do such a command is hillarious😅
This made my day. We went from Scambaiting with Windows RG, Windows 95, and now the legendary Windows 3.11!! God Bless you Kit, my wife and I love watching your videos.
How far back can he lure 'em? Commodore Basic? Amstrad? I'd give full marks if he got them on the Atari 2600 computer system (they had a BASIC add on, IIRC).
Yes man
I would like to see them navigate an extremely laggy and buggy Windows ME system. Seriously, it was worse than Vista as far as quality goes. Make sure there are hundreds of programs installed and a thousand icons on the Desktop, so many that you can't see them all as they are off-screen. And maybe a ...... goofy dog.... for the Desktop background. Perfection.
Now he needs to install CP/M and see how they deal with that.
I'm so glad he's doing this, he should get a grant for providing a public service for harassing these jerks
I lost it when he tried to write scam messages in MSDOS, and all it was doing was spitting out "bad command", haha.
“Ads means hackers.”
He’s so desperate to scam that he starts making bullshit up. LOL!
Also at 10:30, the fact that the scammer STILL doesn’t see any red flags…. I am in disbelief. This is incredible! Hahahahahaha!
to be fair most viruses and even those scammers come from sketchy ads...
idk... 9:21 even before i could get to the "ads = hackers" part, my brain was semi-blue-screened by the "you are using a game which is generated ads" @-)
Theyre very low IQ individuals generally so not surprising
It was amazing. Saying DooM has built in ads, like god damn.
What do you mean starts making BS up? The whole script is BS start to finish.
The fact that the one dude seriously thinks Grandma made a wikipedia page is just hilarious... sometimes I wonder if half the people who work these call centers even know what they're doing... ethically I mean. Obviously they don't know what they're doing technically.
Possibly not, they're just some desperate folks hired off the streets
I think if you have REAL computer skills you would not work in a scammer office for this type of scam.
You mean there not actually computer technicians!?
They have a script and are mostly people hired from low economic status
Network Architect here….. This is pure GOLD. I rarely comment but putting Win 3.1 on a vm to see how they’d act is just priceless. They kept thinking it was Linux….. do they try the same scams with *nix distros or is it OS specific? Scamming scammers looks like fun. I’d spend all day playing with them. You’ve got an endless supply of fun right there!
Laughed at the14/4 error.
Omg DOS!!! When I was really little, my Grandpa (who was really into computers, he built a computer in his basement in 1979, he invented a lot of things for Ford during his career, and had some really interesting stories about what the internet looked like as someone who was on it before it took off) he had several computers when I was like 7, the older one was for the kids that had DOS on it and he had games we could play on it. All I really remember from the DOS part of the computer was this matchmaker game. You typed in up to 8 girl names and 8 boy names and then the program had all these hearts going in a circle and then randomly it would match a girl and a boy name together. This was endlessly entertaining for a 3rd grader who would put her friends names in and laugh at who the computer matched them up with😂
The internet was a great place until 1996 or 1997 when too many "regular" people started getting on it. It pretty quickly turned into the horrible cesspool is is now. Back in the early days, there was no spam, no pop ups, no BS of any kind, just a zillion different websites that were hard to find, but all had some new info on them. It actually took some doing to host a webpage back then, so all the pages had a purpose, it wasn't every idiot with their phone spewing crap 24x7 like it is now
That VM reveal to the clueless scammer absolutely killed me 😂
That one scammer really kept trying to push the scam. Even as you read the wikipedia article that said exactly what he was doing, he just kept trying to pretend he was legit. He tried so hard and got so far, but in the end it doesn't even matter. He had to fall to lose it all, but in the end it doesn't even matter.
It DOES matter, 'cause he's gonna burn in hell.
I respect that Linkin Park
Watching him using 3.11 was giving me the warm and fuzzies
The best part is that 14/4 was enough to break his brain...
He didn't even try! Come on bro, 7/2, you can do this! ERROR... 🤣
Ahh 90s computing. When options felt limitless and you truly felt you were living in advanced times. It really was just a small slice of what was to come. The 90s were great.
It's too bad the interne went to shit when too many "regular" people got on it though. The internet back then was so pure, seemingly limitless, and not full of bs, scams, popups, social media, etc. Those were the days! Like everything, once it was for the masses, it went to absolute sh**
The good old days of absolute anarchy before the evil corporations took over.
It makes me feel old when people can’t recognize windows 3.11! Maybe I am a prime target now for these scammers. But truly an idiot for keep on saying it is Linux, when he does know MS-DOS is by microsoft.
Well you see it SAYS Microsoft but it is clearly a Linux, because it lacks fancy aero GUI designs
Your IP address is been hacked.
Good job holding in all the laughter! I don't know how that's humanly possible!
These guys are very dedicated to their bullshit script. I am equally impressed and horrified.
They are indians, what else can you expect from them
This OS is older than most of the scammers. Their reactions to it are hilarious!

When you asked the woman "should I use write or notepad" I nearly choked lol! Simply golden 👍. Keep up the great work and a big hello from England 🏴🙂
I love how you removed the voice changer and he still kept going. 😂
I have an idea, pretend to be someone that's fully blind. Have accessibility on that'll read everything on the page out loud. I'm sure they'd scam someone who can't see at all, as it'd be easy to pretend something went wrong (wouldn't even have to bring up the notepad for the "refund") or if they'll feel safe enough to change the amounts for the bank account without covering it up as the victim can't see at all. May think they wouldn't have to bother, but I'm pretty sure you can highlight it or click on the word/number and it'll say it outloud, so the victim would still know since accessibility would read them the amounts. Though could see if they'd lie and say they accidentally did more.
Honestly I'm just curious. I know a lot of people that are blind and still use computers and phones with braille keyboards and such. It would also waste more time.
I would like to add that im not sayi g he has to blind himself to do this, but would be better to research how a blind person would navigate their PC/Phone to make it more believable.
He could refresh the bank page "accidentally" after they've changed it without realizing and them having to quickly change it back, or take a lot longer to get to the store cause he'd either have to walk or take a cab. He would also need the scammer to be a lot more patient and quieter so he could hear what's on the computer. As for reading the gift card and such, he could have an "associate" help him out on redeeming it.
Yes omg accessibility features can be painful and time consuming. It would be awesome. Turn on screen reader on slow speed with one button keyboard feature
@@youreperfectstudio4789 oh yes, I forgot you can change the speed. He could take up more time by having to sit and listen to everything on the screen
Maybe "legally blind" rather than fully. Sounds very difficult to try to use a computer fully blind without lots of practice
@@RubelliteFae I mean, he'd only be acting 🤣 not saying he's gotta close his eyes.
Granted I would probably do research on how a blind person would navigate a PC to make it more believable. Would also get in contact with some blind people, or simply watching videos on how a blind person interacts with their PC or Phone. I know for a smart phone they can use Talkback, which will read their screen outloud for them. Same thing on PC.
Everything else all he'd need to do is make it believable, which if he can make someone believe he's a woman with a husband trying to open a black hole with microwaves, I'm sure he can convince someone he's blind.
Maybe even have it so that instead of having TTS software reading everything out, he hires a voice actor to read it out in the voice of Yosemite Sam or something.
That scammer was very creative inventing his own commands.. and inventing the output that he typed himself!
🤣
I like how the scammer is confused and not think this is a joke lol. This scammer is so blind. It's hilarious.
This is the best entertainment I have seen so far. Excellent choice to pull on those scammers. It also shows that Windows 3.1 was the best Windows that existed.
