Yes. The scammer impersonated Federal Agent Van Morrison and wanted me to pay using CVS gift cards. I collected all the information I could, like the mailing address of where I was to mail the gift cards. I immediately called the FBI and gave them all the information I collected, including the recording of the beginning of the conversation, where he gave his fake badge number. Three months later they arrested everyone at the mailing address and the call center, including Federal Manager Van Morrison. Unfortunately, the top three people or the entire operation I am told fled with millions and never were brought t justice.
So glad that Gerald went the extra mile to twist things to save Liam from legal trouble. The performance of actor that played the scam boss was also freaking awesome, Oscar worthy.
This was an amazing video. If you believe that videos on DramatizeMe are connected, this is the old soldier that was a homeless veteran and had to sell his medal to get flowers for a soldier under his command. The character played by Billy that was a florist shop owner hired the elderly veteran and he is now quite successful now being a partner with Billy is the flower shop chain and hence now this story. He was given a chance and now he returns the favor in life in this story. Thank you DramatizeMe for once more giving me a story that moved me to tears. You have great actors, great writers and great directors and you also have a great crew and experts in camera work, sound and make-up and I love your sets. Kudos to all that make your shows possible!
This story made me cry. I miss my son so much. When I and his father got separated I left him with his father for his good future as that time I was not capable of anything. One more thing, he loves his father and so attached with him. So I gave in though, and that was the hardest thing and painful thing I have ever done in my whole life. I love my son so much, my children, that I will do everything for them 😢😢😢❤️😔
For the sake of our loved ones, we are ready for anything, we hope that this will not happen to us! Thank you for being with us dear The Struggling Lady❤️🙏
Good story. We often get bank warning messages that we should not part with OTPs, CVVs and debit/credit card details to anyone. And yet some get trapped and cheated unknowingly and get robbed.
When I saw the young man playing the scammer, I don’t know , I felt he wasn’t a bad guy and I was right!!. And like the old man said , life can be hard and people can take the wrong path out of despair. Awesome video. Thank you for sharing!! ❤❤
As someone who got scammed, it's just sad. It might not be 5K but more like 50$, it's still sad. There never is true justice in this world and that's just the very sad truth.
I've been scammed too of my hard earned money from my bank accounts last year. Money was withdrawn out from my bank without my authorisation as my phone was hacked and l lost almost all the money l had. Reported to the bank, the police, the National Bank and Consumer Association but none of these bodies could help me get my money back. The police was the worst as they assured me from the beginning that my chances of getting back what l lost was 1%. They didn't bother to investigate or follow the money trail as they said it would waste their time. The bank said it is not liable or be held responsible for my loss and even worse they said they could not disclose the info of the account that received my money. I have given up of ever receiving back a single sen. Only hoping those scammers will receive their karma back and burn in hell one day!
Aw! So good to see you as the old man. I've been hoping to see more of your work since our two clips together last year. A bacon double cheese burger would taste pretty good right now, right after I go to the flower shop. You've done good work on your salute, as well!
Like Black Mirror, all the episodes are connected. I imagine that after you hired the homeless veteran, you guys went in business together and hence he was no longer living on the street and then this happened; Great story!
What I love in these channel is Garry doesn't need to be on the script,he just let the actors do their job and let them shine,,which makes it more of like a real short movie
Indeed, b/c as my old middle school Math teacher, Mr. Rondina, once said, "You tend to find the WRONG answers before you find the RIGHT 1's. That's what Science & Math is all about." And that's basically how life is like as well.
I cry 😢this is so sad and beautiful ❤😢.. And not only the old people get scammed but young people too, it’s a sad life and it hurts almost everyone is a victim
This is a glorious video!! Also probably one of a few videos I watched in Dramatizeme that feature a young man with such degree of nobleness. Both the old man (Gerald) and the young man (Liam) are wonderful characters
Moral #4: The best way to deal w/ guilt is by doing the following steps: 1) Remember that you can't change the past. You can only control what's happening @ the present moment. 2) Forgiving yourself 3) TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOURSELF!!!
Thank you Gary and dramatizeme team. Nice plot of a story. I would add a line where the young man in return the favors helps the good hearted retired man with house repairs or gardening. I hate to see short minded people like these scammers think it'll be OK for the seniors to lose their possessions because they die soon. We must learned that: - we will grow up as adults and our parents will become old. And then one day we'll also reach their age. I'm sure you won't your old folks or your old self be treated the same way you treat your old clients; - we were definitely bring into this world by our parents to be part of their family. So it's certain that someone else like this oldman tend to have a family of his own. We should aware that he could inherit his wealth and properties to his next of kins & not to feed scammers. So let's respect each other 😢
Even though older people can't take their money and possessions with them when they die, still they can always leave their stuff with family members or friends.
Gary once again you have done it !! You and your team are amazing!! I absolutely love all your videos !! Thanks so much for making our day more enjoyable and beautiful ❤
I look forward everyday to see when a new video is posted 😊in life we all go make mistakes ,but it's how you learn from them is the big issue so many ppl do get scam one way or the other by others who just don't want to work for themselves but it's good to see he man up and do the right thing
Never ever ever in your life give bank information to anyone over the phone. Never ever ever do that. Never ever. It's a dumb thing to do. Don't ever do it just say I'll come up there and go from there rather than over the phone. As for the cops they would still investigate even arrest that guy and as for the old man actor he did fantastic but lying to police they would still not believe him and that main character would be arrested for sure. I enjoyed this video. Such a good one.
Scamming this senior citizen over the HP was a terrible thing, they want instant money!!! Moral compass is lacking, someone needs to teach the scammers some humility and make them apologize!!! Police will be there to handcuff these scammers, it really caused Mr Thorwood his heart attack!!! Damn !!!
The good thing was that Liam could make everything right at the end. The scammed people should be glad that he had joined that call centre which scams people as ultimately, it was because of them that even some other victims got their money back 🎈
Big thank you very much DramatizeMe and your amazing team for once again pulling out another awesome video as always your videos just keeps getting better and better every time you post them and not forgetting the Storyline's they are absolutely amazing as well and I would love to take the time out to appreciate all the hard work that you and your amazing team put into making all these awesome videos and I would like to thank you for making my nights so happy sitting watching all your amazing videos I can't thank you enough for doing all these awesome videos....BIG THUMBS UP FOR DramatizeMe and your amazing team....👍🏼👍🏻👍🏼👍🏻👏👏🌹🌹🌹💞💕❤️💓💯🙏 KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC WORK DRAMATIZEME AND YOUR AMAZING TEAM I just love all your videos...👏
my GOD this short film made me cry what a nice story.. and a nice actors who played this film.. nice direction. soo soo nice film to watch... more film like this please. i love to watch all your short film.. more power
I have been following this chennel ever since it had a few thousands subscribers. All casts act absolutely perfect n give the feel of hollywood completely. Adicted to ur eye opening channel.❤
This video definitely needs a part 2. Love to see his mom pair up with the the man that gave him the money for moms surgery. actually they will make a hansom couple, okay Garry lets get to work..
Great video and she's right sometimes we do bad things but we need to retain our Humanity I hate phone scammers I cannot wait until we put a stop to them that kid may have thought he was Robin Hood or Jean Valjean but there is a big difference between stealing bread for a hungry person and stealing everything from someone with no one
I think there is also actually a scammer pretending to be an actor from this one tv show on youtube. It's really easy to tell. The actor acted for so many years in that show, with no problems with his accent or English. The person pretending to be him, apparently downloaded a video of him singing and now writes to his fans. He even kept writing to me until I was like no, look at his English. And when I asked him what his favorite part of that one tv show was, he did not know what to respond. Scammers are everywhere, some are on youtube.
Have you ever been scammed over the phone?
Not me, I do not talk to strangers
No, but they've tried.
Yes. The scammer impersonated Federal Agent Van Morrison and wanted me to pay using CVS gift cards. I collected all the information I could, like the mailing address of where I was to mail the gift cards. I immediately called the FBI and gave them all the information I collected, including the recording of the beginning of the conversation, where he gave his fake badge number. Three months later they arrested everyone at the mailing address and the call center, including Federal Manager Van Morrison. Unfortunately, the top three people or the entire operation I am told fled with millions and never were brought t justice.
No
They try but failed
Love the old man. That's what being a truly good human is.
Agreed 😊
Same
Thank you, Mr. Garry, for sharing your wonderful videos with us all on a regular basis.
Glad you like them! ❤
Garry from DramatizeMe
One of the best ones yet and hopefully you raised awareness of these disgusting slime that are doing this to people, especially the elderly!!!
You feel relieved when you give or leave your money and valuables with the right people.
Thanks for commenting! 🤗
This channel is good for the humanity. Every single person should watch this beautiful stories.
So glad that Gerald went the extra mile to twist things to save Liam from legal trouble. The performance of actor that played the scam boss was also freaking awesome, Oscar worthy.
Absolutely wonderful video. Everything worked out perfectly including putting those scammers behind bars!
Much appreciated, dear Iris🌼🙂!🌼
Yes, & the kid has learned that, a lot of the time in life, the easy way usually isn't the best way.
Commitment-minded ,
Respectful,
Kind and Loving,
Emotionally Intelligent,
That is the reason I love Old people 😍♥️
This man is a true human being.

Thank you! ❤️ It's so inspiring to read your comment, dear G Richard Yamagata🤗
He was also a patient at a hospital
@@shadowx2652 Great to see your post! You are correct. Sadly, that could be the reason he is no longer in episodes😩.

It’s very weird when an apology just goes wrong and it causes another problem
How we raise our children matters alot. We have to bring up our children honesty, respect and being hard workers for them to survive.
Thank you, dramatize me Gary & the team for showing again And it's never too late to do the right thing.💜
That’s what being a human being means. Thanks guys
We're so glad you enjoyed the story,
Anastasia. Thank you so much for commenting! 🤗
What a great posted comment. Thank you!
It's just sad how some people try to scam others for money and take it
But what's also sad is that they need it for the family's health bills
Thank you very much for sharing your opinion, Kiwi world
Good story. We often get bank warning messages that we should not part with OTPs, CVVs and debit/credit card details to anyone. And yet some get trapped and cheated unknowingly and get robbed.
This video made me cry in the end. What a wonderful story, Gary!!! Kudos to you and to your team of actors.
When I saw the young man playing the scammer, I don’t know , I felt he wasn’t a bad guy and I was right!!.
And like the old man said , life can be hard and people can take the wrong path out of despair.

Those are the injustices of life 🙁We hope this doesn't happen to you again!
Why this old man’s videos always makes me cry😢
You should never scam people over the phone! That is a wonderful and a miracle story.
Aw! So good to see you as the old man. I've been hoping to see more of your work since our two clips together last year. A bacon double cheese burger would taste pretty good right now, right after I go to the flower shop. You've done good work on your salute, as well!
I loved that vid, I was so sad when the nurse said your character died
loved this!!!!
🙏💜
Yes, those are two of my favorite episodes. You guys did great work together.
Like Black Mirror, all the episodes are connected. I imagine that after you hired the homeless veteran, you guys went in business together and hence he was no longer living on the street and then this happened; Great story!
Appreciate the old man in his wisdom. Episode of redemption
What I love in these channel is Garry doesn't need to be on the script,he just let the actors do their job and let them shine,,which makes it more of like a real short movie
Thank you very much for your review 🤗
I'm crying after watching this its so touching thank you so much ❤

Oh my god! I cried while watching this,it's a lot of moral lesson from this a brief scenes! Hats off you guys! 🤗🤗🤗🤗

This is a glorious video!!
Also probably one of a few videos I watched in Dramatizeme that feature a young man with such degree of nobleness.
Both the old man (Gerald) and the young man (Liam) are wonderful characters
All these other channels needs to take a page from this channel’s book.. Another fantastic video Garry ❤
Thank you for watching us, TopNotch! Your kind comment is so inspiring.
More videos are coming. With love, Harry 🙏💜💜

Oh what can I say 👏🏽👏🏽Garry and his crew are full of surprises 😘Thanks so much 🙏for this 🎉
Moral #2: Doing the wrong thing, even if it's out of good intentions, is still doing the wrong thing.
You’re right! ❤️🙏
Even though older people can't take their money and possessions with them when they die, still they can always leave their stuff with family members or friends.
What a wonderful story, thank you Mr Gary amd team this is so heartbreaking ❤❤❤❤
Hey, Mukbang with Jeyna! Thank you so much for your kind words! We are glad you enjoyed the story and appreciate your support. ❤️

@@DramatizeMe Well I'm a big fan of your work Garry, I think Tania Lav's pregnant if I'm not mistaken
One of the BEST Episodes I've watched
This channel's content is way more creative and wholesome than Dhar Mann
It's funny how these two were a couple in a video and now mom and son😂😂
I have been following this chennel ever since it had a few thousands subscribers. All casts act absolutely perfect n give the feel of hollywood completely. Adicted to ur eye opening channel.❤
Great , heartwarming story !
I absolutely condemn the scamming.
This video definitely needs a part 2. Love to see his mom pair up with the the man that gave him the money for moms surgery. actually they will make a hansom couple, okay Garry lets get to work..
We’ll consider that idea 👍
@@DramatizeMe It could be a Lovebuster episode
Absolute best ❤❤❤Thank you dear Garry & Team Dramatizeme for this beautiful video..God bless you guys❤❤
Had me in tears at the end 😢
I miss my grandfather..... he's just like the old man
We need more of this 😢😢
Heartfelt video .❤️❤️❤️
Always looking forward of your new video uploads .
Thank you for always giving us a very inspiring content always🥰😊
Welcome here! ❤️🙏
Great video and she's right sometimes we do bad things but we need to retain our Humanity I hate phone scammers I cannot wait until we put a stop to them that kid may have thought he was Robin Hood or Jean Valjean but there is a big difference between stealing bread for a hungry person and stealing everything from someone with no one
Thank you for your comment, Robbie. Thank you for watching.
I think there is also actually a scammer pretending to be an actor from this one tv show on youtube. It's really easy to tell. The actor acted for so many years in that show, with no problems with his accent or English. The person pretending to be him, apparently downloaded a video of him singing and now writes to his fans. He even kept writing to me until I was like no, look at his English. And when I asked him what his favorite part of that one tv show was, he did not know what to respond. Scammers are everywhere, some are on youtube.
Really nice, I love this flim very much.
I watched in tears 🥲
