      I am not here to burst bubbles of those who may think of the channels mentioned as heroes. Keep in mind what they is for entertainment on RUclips. In no way to do anything to stop internet fraud. Deleting a few files stops them for max 2 hours. Its matter of taking a stick and re-uploading the files which are all backed up on external drives. Do you people think these scammers are stupid? they have dealt with Kitboga and Jim many times before and know how to ignore them end the call and re-upload rinse repeat etc should they be successful in delaying the scans. they are minor inconveniences to scam call centers and thats all they are...it nothing to stop them.

    @EnglishMike 6 лет назад +249

    The scariest scam I have encountered was when I was visiting my elderly parents in the UK a couple of years ago. Dad picked up the phone at they said it was the police calling from a London police station claiming to have found a fraudulent copy of his credit card in the possession of someone they had just arrested. Dad was taken in, but Mum and I were suspicious, so got him to ask for more confirmation. They eventually told him he could call them back and ask for the fraud desk to be reconnected, but the number they gave him was 999 (the UK version of 911), which or course, was obviously a scam. So that was the end of it.
    After doing some digging, I found out how the scam worked. When you ring off to call them back, they stay on the line and play a recording of a dial tone. Then, when you pick up again, you hear a dial tone but you're still connected to original call, so they can simply "answer the call", "transfer you back to the original caller", thus allaying your suspicions and continuing with the scam.
    Then comes the scary part. They claim they need your original credit card as evidence in their case against the man they have arrested, and if you agree, they will send a police officer around to your house to pick it later that evening. It's very rare for phone scams to end up with direct physical contact, but this was one such scam. According to news reports I found, they were targeting a bunch of people in that area of the country, and were going door-to-door picking up credit cards from the unsuspecting souls. Some arrests were made, fortunately.

    • @che3se1495

      I'm kinda shocked that people would fall for this. 999 is for reporting serious ongoing crimes. A local police number would be far more reasonable request (even possibly easier to scam).
      999 = Someone is about to get hurt/I can see a crime in front of me.

    Worse than scammers are the banks that do not require 2-factor authentication for their users.

    • @drylooped
      @drylooped 6 лет назад +28

      Banks don't care, it is why when you claim fraudulent charges on your credit card they almost always immidiately refund the charges. It is cheaper for them to do that for the few that get scammed. Then to do the right thing and invest in the people and tech that would help to keep banking info safe.

    • @Sich97
      @Sich97 6 лет назад +9

      Yeah, I guess that makes sense. They will do whatever makes the most economical sense to them.
      That's why in some countries like my own, the banks are required to meet specific security standards like for example 2-factor authentication.
      The banks didn't have to do all that much work here, because there was allready a national identity system with 2-factor authentication in place.
      I find it interesting how some of the countries that contribute the most to IT-research are so far behind when it comes to actually implementing it.

      Actually they have that with my bank (commonwealth bank of aus). If i'm transferring to a new account or if im transferring a large sum they send a sms code to your phone and you have to verify that code in order for the transaction to go through.

    • @egis4500
      @egis4500 5 лет назад

      My bank has these id cards and there are like 90 codes. You need to enter it when you login. It asks for example code from 59 and it has 6 digits so it would be 59 656565 . Same for transfering money or any other major task. But they are going to change it soon to phone smart id. If you login into bank app pops up on phone asking for a password you setup to login. So unless they have your phone or id card they cant login. So tech support could only scam when the person gives them the code. So they could never login into the bank even if they had password and username unless person tells them the code that the system asks. But getting ccv and the front card nubmer couls be bad since you dont need to confirm that.

    I often used TeamViewer to help family/friends fix their computer problems remotely (which came especially handy during the start of the pandemic). Thanks to this and other anti-scam channels, I've also asked them to stay away from "tech support" people who offer to do the same thing using the same program.

    You should also throw some random files and icons into your desktop, nowadays they can tell that they're being monitored because your desktop looks like you just installed it or running on a VM. By adding some icons to fill up at least half of the desktop will minimize their suspicion of being cracked... And automate file transfers at least with macro short cuts, so you do it with a short key rather than navigating on his pc which he can clearly see...

      joe guy: I think the emphasis was on "one day". Corruption in law enforcement was once widespread in the States and numerous other Westernized countries not too long ago; if True Crime nonfiction is up your alley, if one reads "The Brothers Bulger" by Howie Carr (about police corruption in 1970's New England, among others), one finds the police corruption in Boston almost fifty years ago was once as bad or worse than that found in modern India or areas of Mexico not all that long ago.

      Next time send them a file^^ In form of RAT (remote access tool) essentially a troijan horse, that creates a backdoor for you to do interesting things at their PC's. For instance if its call center, you can spread it trough their whole system, install root kit to ensure its not easy to remove and start playing "this is a scam, dont believe anything they say" audio trough their mic channels, so it only is heard by people they call. RATting is highly illegal if most of the countries, how ever in cases like this :D yeah scammer will sue you for sure and with out complainant no one cares or investigatesXD
      Of course you can collect all relevant data and send it to local police in their area and fuck up their whole system. Even better start running bitcoin mining operation trough their hardware and while doing so, burning it up XD
