I'm 32 years old and still remember the time a 16-18 year old scammed me for my charizard card first edition holo at a mall. I was like 11 and there was a group battle thing going on where I went. Guy saw my charizard and asked if I would trade. I told him no but this literal adult teenager kept following me around and trying to talk me into trading with him. He didnt leave me alone for like an hour where he finally offered something I was interested in. A holo mewtwo and one of those weird ancient looking mew cards. He said he would go get them and when he came back he handed me the cards backside first, snatched my charizard card, and immediately ran out of the store and out the mall. The two cards he handed me were both ryhorns. It was less a scam and more an outright robbery of a child by a teenager but ive never seen the dude again in my life or else I would have recognized him. I wanted to kill that dude. I literally chased him but he was old enough to drive as he got in a beat up Honda civic and left. My mom was there and security heard me calling him a theif as I ran after him but they didnt intervene. Cops were called and I gave them his plate number but the cops made it apparent they didnt give a shit about a singular pokemon card. Even though today one of those is worth thousands. I hope you're happy stealing from a child you pathetic excuse of a human being. Its been 20 years and I still hate you.
You guys seem to underestimate Charlie's knowledge of his own videos He probably knows all 500 lost videos by fucking name. Edit: this is out of hand. I'm not even Charl-...but what if I am? What if we are all Charlie?....
@@highwaythruhell7882 Not only is that video way too high resolution for a 2007-2010 video, but Charlie almost certainly never used text to speech. Even if he did, there's no way he would've said "slow the video down to .25x speed" because the audience retention wasn't that important at that point and nobody knew about that loophole until recently. You're just trying to get more views on your own video.
my friend got blackmailed by who he thought was a girl, but it was a guy. he screenshotted inappropriate pictures of him and threatened to leak them if he didn’t sent 500 dollars. he didn’t have 500 so he settled for 15 dollars. bro was desperate.
Yeah, gotta be real careful sharing things like that if you do, because in the wrong hands could ruin your life permanently or for a long time atleast.
He also attracts viewers that are of the nerdy variety. The perfect kinds of people to surround yourself with in an online setting. Look at how fast chat found the source. Lol
Charlie, if you still have the old harddrive that stored the videos at any point you could restore the deleted files even after many years. Hope you see this!

this is the funniest penguinz0 video ive ever seen the way he says "stop trying to scam me" while staring straight into the center of the camera is just funny
I’m not surprised people are trying to scam him, one of the wealthiest RUclipsrs/Streamers offering an asinine amount of money for something so simple but precious to him so of course people are gonna try and to bamboozle him It’s still pretty dirty what that person tried to pull and the effort that went into the scam itself is pretty wild
This reminds me of borderlands 2 when Handsome jack put a bounty on Lilith's head and people kept coming in with random peoples bodies with marker on them
How the hell did Twitch chat figure that out??? Was he not subbed to many people??? Usually people sub to dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of youtubers, the fact that twitch chat found the one small youtuber this guy was subbed to that owned the video he poached posted in 2010 is fucking incredible.
Those people in chat deserve a medal. Like these are the people Charlie had faith when posting the challenge in and they just aren't letting him down

Honestly, I’m so close to just abandoning RUclips comments altogether. You get multiple bots commenting on every video and even commenting on bot videos. Add in the taco cat and the heat on my Paige crap posted every single video and it’s just ridiculous. Genuine comments are outnumbered by bots and trolls. Even small channels are getting swarmed by these bots.
Everyone says black tee Charlie is serious Charlie, but no one mentions glasses Charlie

You should definitely require that people give actual detail as to how they found it, if/when they find it, in order to get the bounty.
@Florin beby shut up
I genuinely feel sorry for Charlie. The man just wants to get his deleted videos back and people are only in it for the money. Hope he gets the videos legitimately.
what else would they be in it for lol
@@BlankNames111 exactly, ain’t that the point😂😂
You genuinely feel sorry? Bro it’s just a fun challenge it’s not that deep
This is so bad, delete it.
Damn yall shittin on op for having compassion. What a world
Man, it sucks that people are still shit. High key though, I'm looking forward to the "memory lane" episode if this ends up with honest recovered videos in the future.
Some people are shit, but there are people like those who helped him
realize it was a scam
Why would it have changed? If anything people nowadays are more desperate for money than they ever have been after years of terrible policy making and obviously covid.
@@tygonmaster another thing, he upped the bounty of those vids to 25k, EACH, why would people not try to scam charlie for a whole salary
@@peterk.2108 25k is only a salary in poorer countries/regions, but yeh. It is a lot and any time you have a lot of money involved, you will have scammers. Just how it is.
The best part about the "im probably streaming right now" line is that it will be accurate for as long as Charlie streams on Twitch daily
I swear there's some actual CIA agents in Charlie's chat hiding in plain sight.
The only scam Charlie pulled was stealing my heart

I'm 32 years old and still remember the time a 16-18 year old scammed me for my charizard card first edition holo at a mall. I was like 11 and there was a group battle thing going on where I went. Guy saw my charizard and asked if I would trade. I told him no but this literal adult teenager kept following me around and trying to talk me into trading with him. He didnt leave me alone for like an hour where he finally offered something I was interested in. A holo mewtwo and one of those weird ancient looking mew cards. He said he would go get them and when he came back he handed me the cards backside first, snatched my charizard card, and immediately ran out of the store and out the mall. The two cards he handed me were both ryhorns. It was less a scam and more an outright robbery of a child by a teenager but ive never seen the dude again in my life or else I would have recognized him. I wanted to kill that dude. I literally chased him but he was old enough to drive as he got in a beat up Honda civic and left. My mom was there and security heard me calling him a theif as I ran after him but they didnt intervene. Cops were called and I gave them his plate number but the cops made it apparent they didnt give a shit about a singular pokemon card. Even though today one of those is worth thousands. I hope you're happy stealing from a child you pathetic excuse of a human being. Its been 20 years and I still hate you.
It was me I stole the card
@@leograyel3795 no it was me
Holy shit, a foil Charizard back then would be worth like $100 at the time (so like $200 or $300 today). That’s larceny. Fuck that kid.

Not only is that video way too high resolution for a 2007-2010 video, but Charlie almost certainly never used text to speech. Even if he did, there's no way he would've said "slow the video down to .25x speed" because the audience retention wasn't that important at that point and nobody knew about that loophole until recently. You're just trying to get more views on your own video.
my friend got blackmailed by who he thought was a girl, but it was a guy. he screenshotted inappropriate pictures of him and threatened to leak them if he didn’t sent 500 dollars. he didn’t have 500 so he settled for 15 dollars. bro was desperate.
Yeah, gotta be real careful sharing things like that if you do, because in the wrong hands could ruin your life permanently or for a long time atleast.
Lmao, Charlie is one of the OG channels since YT was even a thing, he's not fucking stupid.
@Emi Eiko Ah, the irony.
He also attracts viewers that are of the nerdy variety. The perfect kinds of people to surround yourself with in an online setting. Look at how fast chat found the source. Lol
Imagine someone suddenly emailing him all 500 links at once, and none of them were duplicates.
He should rightfully be freaked out and us too

As a RuneScape player since 2007, I completely agree with everything he says. I don’t trust anyone.
I love how that he’s so serious that his classic calm tone of voice has changed to angry and disturbed
Charlie, if you still have the old harddrive that stored the videos at any point you could restore the deleted files even after many years. Hope you see this!

Glad he actually addressed this in a video. The amount of times this shit was brought up in his streams for the last week has been insane
this is kinda showing who the true, good fans are, people demanding money out of him are just eugh
Especially the ones who are trying to get him to give the money without even showing him first. *THAT* is just disgusting attempt at scamming too.
Hard to believe his Chat managed to uncover all that and deduce it in under an hour but yet at the same time struggle to give him basic directions in a game.

I’m not surprised people are trying to scam him, one of the wealthiest RUclipsrs/Streamers offering an asinine amount of money for something so simple but precious to him so of course people are gonna try and to bamboozle him
It’s still pretty dirty what that person tried to pull and the effort that went into the scam itself is pretty wild
