There’s people who fall for scams. Then there’s people who hang up on scammers. Then there’s people who research the scammers and warn others. Then there’s the baiters that waste the scammer’s time. Then... there’s Jim Browning.
I had an Indian call me and say my computer told them it has a virus. I said I'm not nearly as concerned about the virus as I am about my computer talking to people when I'm not around.
that scammer was probably just rolling his/her eyes and didn't even get the joke ... they're so dull, they don't understand most of the things you even say.
@@JanoyCresvaZero I highly doubt any job in India makes enough money for them to survive without doing something this bad or worse. This is the reality just how bad the economy is there. It's so bad they have to leach off of everyone else.
Jim is a hypnotic speaker. I've binge watched a lot of his videos and it is absolutely amazing what he is able to do. There is no excuse for what these scammers are doing, not even claiming poverty. I have seen homeless people return a wallet with $1000 in it. They were poor people but they were honest. There's always a legitimate job they could have gotten, albeit maybe at a lower rate of pay. No excuse for extortion.
@@pumpkinot9900 When I was broke I went door to door and cleaned garages, scrubbed floors, cleaned windows, etc. There wasn't a day that went by that I didn't find some kind of work to do. If you want to work bad enough, you will find work even if it means you have to move to a different city, which I've done. I knew nobody in that new city but I made friends eventually.

onle thing i love about jim is how he has the skills do scam and hack people but instead he helps the internet and protects people from losing money or getting scammed or hacked
Halil Aydin some of it is due to being late into the scene or the victim is in too deep. Jim does help out some. There was one instance where he got control of the scammer's pc and refunded the victim. He has also tipped off some victims.
@@Valvex_ he may be motivated to let the scammers get away with less serious things since his main goal is to maintain access on their computers long enough to gather enough information to report names and address along with sufficient evidence of illegal activity. It's actually quite an elaborate gig he has going on here. If he were to interfere with all of the scams they do, they would find his access and he wouldn't be able to get footage of them performing illegal activities. He does step in when the victim is about to lose things of high value though.
Why would anyone do it. If you can do these scams you can find a real job. Most of these scammers calling from the call centers don't keep the money anyway, it's like a job for them.
What’s so chilling is how organised and professional the “Good Karma” call centre is. It absolutely gives me the creeps to think of all these little criminals turning up at their desks, getting their free meals and subsidised travel, and competing to rise up the league table of who has managed the most scams each month. Sickening.
It's beyond satisfying to hear you explain how you slither into all their stuff and save loads of people from falling for this. I have nothing but respect for you, but most of all, your tranquil and hardly ever worried personality portrays you as a badass, no joke. Keep it up man.
"explain how you slither into all their stuff" while leaving the most crucial details out. I do respect you a lot, Jim Browning. You should teach us how you do these things, since larger numbers of people armed with this information can do the good you do in greater quantity, and spread the word about these scams.
SNBeast - Not to start anything but I felt the need to point out that while teaching these things to people can do alot of good, it can certainly also do the literal opposite. I'm not trying to be pessimistic don't get me wrong, I think you know what I mean though. Edit: I thought of an analogy just to reiterate / clarify what I mean: To me I think it's virtually the same as a trained army soldier; skilled sniper or whatever, who decides to teach all he knows to people just getting into shooting, etc. It's very likely that at least a couple of people who desire training also have bad intentions, and can be a huge threat - as with tech knowledge like that. Might be a redundant explanation though.
When a "tech supporter" told me my computer had a virus, I told her it was impossible. My computer practices social distancing and is at least six feet from all other computers.

*I've been in Computer IT support for years. When these scammers call I always ask them if they are really the FBI spying on me because I've seen black vans parked outside my house all the time. When they deny it I say that's exactly what the FBI would say and hang up. XD*
I work in IT and I've loved your videos. This morning in fact my boss got a call from a scammer claiming to be from Microsoft. We spent the first hour of our morning repeatedly calling them up to mess with them. It was a truly enjoyable experience, though not nearly as satisfying as what I bet you must feel when you get back at these guys.
For anyone wondering how he gets reverse connection without teamviewer, read this. You see the "Barclays Authenticator" exe on his desktop? This is known as a RAT and he can use social engineering or a scammer getting nosy to get them to open it on their machine. Once they have opend it, not only is it set up to run on startup, but this will give him FULL acess to a big range of tools such as password pullers, webcam and screen monitors, remote connection, send message boxes and much more through a program called Nanocore / DarkComet! Use wisely people!
Jim not only are you an excellent scam baiter but you also have a very good sense of humor (Bob's.vegene😂). Indian scammers are your bunnies now. Love you!
Sebastian Jonathan kids movie? Considering I'm 19 and watched that movie frequently in my childhood and am still excited to see the 2nd one is it really a kids movie?
Was scambaiting yesterday and he ran the netstat command. The scammer claimed that all of the IP's were the ''hackers'' trying to hack my ''network''. Even although I created the VM 10 minutes beforehand. Very odd how these ''hackers'' tried to hack me so quikcly. Keep up the good work Jim! Love your videos
@@daddychristmas9257 Because the government lacks effective regulations, resources and political will when it comes to these kind of things. If the Indian government cracked down hard on these scammers, they would probably come from another country that doesn't have the resources or political will to crack down hard enough on scammers (Nigeria seems to be another country that has a lot of scammers too).
I've had Americans call in a monotone professional voice and they sound legit asking for basic information like age and name slowly getting you to open up to them and stealing when you least expect it. It just happens that Indian scammers are the ones that get caught. Any crime that exist always has pros that have gotten away with it.
I always wondered why “hackers” never used their incredible skill for good things. Thank you Mr B. for doing what’s right. I wish I could contribute to patreon, but for now I’ll just watch all your ads 🙂

Holy... is that his voice breaking with rage when he's explaining how they prey upon the helpless who often don't even realize that they have been scammed? I know this is an old video but I've been binge-watching this channel while working from home in the self-isolation. You are doing incredible work Mr. Browning. The internet needs more 'defenders' like you.
Are you in the uk because I get calls about someone being “recently informed” that I got in a car accident all the time. But I think they blocked me when they accidentally showed their home address and i threatened to call the police
" i followed up the call with an email to tamika, but i don't think she actually believed me" i laughed way harder at this than i should of. i feel awful for it.
@@Valvex_ I feel most victims are in denial about being scammed as they will probably feel dumb and embarrassed to admit that they have been suckered in by these scummy bastards.
10:16 I love the browser tab titled "Cabbage". After watching a number of these scammer vids, I felt quite sick to my stomach. That cabbage tab was a welcomed moment for a giggle. Thank you for all that you do.
Do I understand what just happened? You contacted a "victim" who said that the scammers did what they promised, since before the incident, she was locked out of her computer, and afterwards, she wasn't? If so, does she realize that the scammers locked her out in the first place, then charged her to "fix" it? This is nothing more than a protection racket, but unlike traditional protection, these victims are deluded into thinking they are actually paying for a valuable "service." They are being scammed twice.
Jim Browning Interesting. So a dude trying to offer help via Phone and E-mail is a scammer, while another person who gets the complete control over your PC and charges you for it isn't.
Sadly, I suspect they planted some software in her computer that will frequently "phone home" and provide job security for India. P.T. Barnum was right.
Jim Browning One of my families members just got scammed (luckily her credit card company caught on) she’s gonna speak to dell and we told her to change all her passwords, credit card number, and lock them out. I said I’ll help her change her IP address. Anything else we should do?
I live in Noida, India.guess who’ll be calling GK tomorrow? This girlie right here :3 Let’s see what I can get out of them. A promising “I saw your hiring ad online” wouldn’t hurt to start with. :3
Jim Browning Hey. So I called them (as promised) and they do have a team which works from the Noida call centre as well. I asked if they had any openings and what were the job requirements. There were openings (“you’re always welcome to be a part of our team”) and the requirement was basic English proficiency. Quite ironic because they claimed they were computer service providers but didn’t mention anything regarding that as a requirement. The meal and cab service would be provided (like promised on their ad) and the monthly pay was Rupees 12k ($175) for freshers which would increase to 15k or 20k after the first three months. The person I talked to was the receptionist and it looked like she was oblivious to what even was happening in her workplace to start with. I pondered if I should call them out or not but I decided against it.
" and the monthly pay was Rupees 12k ($175)" That's the kind of money I have heard some scammers admit that they make. I think Jim was mistaken in this video where he showed the dollar amounts on the spreadsheet and he thought that was how much money they made. It was probably how much they had scammed people for.
My partner and I are fans of you, Jim! We both are IT people (he's in automation and software development, I'm in website development and digital marketing) and we love your stuff! Tried being a Patron but I dont think Patreon accepts my card.
3 million and thats just one call center. No wonder these guys are so persistent. My father gets 3 or 4 calls a day from scamers, fake aol, fake isp, you name it.

*I've been in Computer IT support for years. When these scammers call I always ask them if they are really the FBI spying on me because I've seen black vans parked outside my house all the time. When they deny it I say that's exactly what the FBI would say and hang up. XD*
damn good prank xD
Lol
anyone could do that
I really love this.

I work in IT and I've loved your videos. This morning in fact my boss got a call from a scammer claiming to be from Microsoft. We spent the first hour of our morning repeatedly calling them up to mess with them. It was a truly enjoyable experience, though not nearly as satisfying as what I bet you must feel when you get back at these guys.
For anyone wondering how he gets reverse connection without teamviewer, read this. You see the "Barclays Authenticator" exe on his desktop? This is known as a RAT and he can use social engineering or a scammer getting nosy to get them to open it on their machine. Once they have opend it, not only is it set up to run on startup, but this will give him FULL acess to a big range of tools such as password pullers, webcam and screen monitors, remote connection, send message boxes and much more through a program called Nanocore / DarkComet!
Use wisely people!

Was scambaiting yesterday and he ran the netstat command. The scammer claimed that all of the IP's were the ''hackers'' trying to hack my ''network''. Even although I created the VM 10 minutes beforehand. Very odd how these ''hackers'' tried to hack me so quikcly.
Keep up the good work Jim! Love your videos
I am Indian myself and this is the most despicable thing I have seen people do. I just want people to know that not all Indians are like this.
I hate to be rude but why is it that most technical support people happen to be indian? No fence
Well ofcourse
@@daddychristmas9257 Because the government lacks effective regulations, resources and political will when it comes to these kind of things. If the Indian government cracked down hard on these scammers, they would probably come from another country that doesn't have the resources or political will to crack down hard enough on scammers (Nigeria seems to be another country that has a lot of scammers too).
I've had Americans call in a monotone professional voice and they sound legit asking for basic information like age and name slowly getting you to open up to them and stealing when you least expect it. It just happens that Indian scammers are the ones that get caught. Any crime that exist always has pros that have gotten away with it.
Nah it’s usually nigeria i think of when i hear scam

The chronicles of the daring Bob Vegen, striking terror into the hearts of Tech support employees.
1:20 "Bob Vegen" I can't believe she didn't notice and you got away with it.
That's because Indians don't know of this inside joke. I didn't until I saw Pewd's video.
Do I understand what just happened? You contacted a "victim" who said that the scammers did what they promised, since before the incident, she was locked out of her computer, and afterwards, she wasn't? If so, does she realize that the scammers locked her out in the first place, then charged her to "fix" it? This is nothing more than a protection racket, but unlike traditional protection, these victims are deluded into thinking they are actually paying for a valuable "service." They are being scammed twice.
Jim Browning Interesting. So a dude trying to offer help via Phone and E-mail is a scammer, while another person who gets the complete control over your PC and charges you for it isn't.
Miepee Sad how that works eh?
Sadly, I suspect they planted some software in her computer that will frequently "phone home" and provide job security for India. P.T. Barnum was right.
Yes feel for getting scammed.. hope with your email and call shes figured it out so wont work next time....
Jim Browning One of my families members just got scammed (luckily her credit card company caught on) she’s gonna speak to dell and we told her to change all her passwords, credit card number, and lock them out. I said I’ll help her change her IP address. Anything else we should do?

Also the victims seem so naive that she probably thought you were the actual scammer.
Or more likely, she didn't want to discover whether she had just wasted 400 dollars. That's how the human brain works...

Let’s see what I can get out of them. A promising “I saw your hiring ad online” wouldn’t hurt to start with. :3
Jim Browning maybe the file.is.just for the guragon center...
Jim Browning Hey. So I called them (as promised) and they do have a team which works from the Noida call centre as well. I asked if they had any openings and what were the job requirements. There were openings (“you’re always welcome to be a part of our team”) and the requirement was basic English proficiency. Quite ironic because they claimed they were computer service providers but didn’t mention anything regarding that as a requirement. The meal and cab service would be provided (like promised on their ad) and the monthly pay was Rupees 12k ($175) for freshers which would increase to 15k or 20k after the first three months. The person I talked to was the receptionist and it looked like she was oblivious to what even was happening in her workplace to start with. I pondered if I should call them out or not but I decided against it.
Cathartic become a man in the middle?
" and the monthly pay was Rupees 12k ($175)"
That's the kind of money I have heard some scammers admit that they make. I think Jim was mistaken in this video where he showed the dollar amounts on the spreadsheet and he thought that was how much money they made. It was probably how much they had scammed people for.
