I dont know anything about computer stuff but i really love this video..thankyou all of you guys for the hard and amazing work..all the love from Philippines to Saudi Arabia❤❤❤❤
She was absolutely amazing!!! She actually made me feel bad as well because I could so easily believe it was just a poor innocent person believing that they were about to lose everything… these scammers are awful. All the power to that lady for being able to flip the script!
Hundreds of scammers in jail, bunch of them banned. If you just save ONE person losing their life savings, what you're doing is totally worth it. Thank you for doing this, so much!
It isn't justice. Losing 2 Weeks of time is nothing compared to losing life savings. They will keep doing it because its basically a clap on the wrist.
@@thrakirlp4233There’s a short story I read once. A grandpa and his grandson were walking along the beach, where many starfish had been washed up by the tides. The grandpa stopped to throw the starfish back into the sea. The grandson asked, “Grandpa, why bother? There’s too many starfish on the beach for it to matter.” The grandpa picked up a starfish, threw it back and said, “It mattered to that one.”
Other companies would be wise to do this. It would protect their reputation. And it would be a great effort it lowering bandwidth use for everybody. When the pipes are clear, everyone's internet could be a lot better.
Faaaacts. My folks have been scammed a couple times and I'm just so confused, after the childhood training, how and why they would trust a disembodied voice on the phone.
Also not to give out family members phone numbers without permission or informing them. That’s how I got scammed. My mum’s card wasn’t working online, so I used mine. Then my so called bank called, little did I know they’d phoned my mum first and she’d given them my phone number. I really believed it was my bank because they’re really quick in the fraud department. And my phone number is very private. So they took every last penny I had. When they hung up I felt it was odd, so called the fraud team and they handled it quickly. They got caught, thankfully.
@@hugh_jasso There weren't scammers when they were raising you. I am still sharp enough, I know what not to do. If I am feeling feisty and get an incoming call I may play with them and waste their time, but *NEVER* give information. As I age from here on out and scammers get more creative, I can't promise it will stay that way... :(
The fact that one of the scammer dudes thought "I'll suck your d*ck!" was a good insult is also extremely hilarious lol - especially because they were saying it to a woman 😂 Also: "Anydesk has a big d*ck" - like, that's kind of a compliment, even though it's a software company and not a human being with a body?
Thank You for what you are doing! Last November I got scammed. I am a disabled Viet Nam era veteran they took every penny I had and was unable to participate in my grandkids Christmas, I ended up getting a new computer and I still am not caught back up. I also have two different cancers in my lungs. I keep fighting to live but it is great to see what you do to keep other's protected. I once was a warrior for other's now I have to be a warrior for myself. These people are the lowest form of human existence. Thank you and God Bless you! Keep up the good fight!!!
Thanks for your awesome work from Europe. We'd get at least one call a day from Microsoft support scammers for weeks and we always have a lot of fun. Not everybody is lucky though, so thanks a ton.
Absolutely incredible job man. The amount of organization behind the PPC 2023 can't be underestimated. Thank you @AnyDesk too for making the 1st week possible - great job Matt, Pierogi, Brandon and SP team. I wish I could have been there, but perhaps next year.
Maybe unnecessary but needed.. Now the Government can fund this without no problems and the Communications companies can now help them with no problems..
This is why we can't let the globalists win. The USA and our middle class needs to be preserved or it will be every person for themselves against the world.
@@dmm3124 Ikr the name really does, lol 😂 But it works too well to be communist. At a communist enterprise, people pretend to pay people who pretend to work; which eventually, inevitably, devolves into catastrophic failure.
You should have kept this idea to yourself. Unless you want to act on it and make it a reality. I'm not sure ho you could monetise it but it's not a bad idea.
As an Indian, thank you so much for this. These scammers are vicious to us all, they don't even spare their own country. I'm not in the cybersecurity field so I'm not of much help but I hope your video is successful so you're able to carry more of such operations.
Huge respect to you brother, Even though I am not from your country it genuinely upsets me because of what these people do and how they make your culture and race look bad to those who are ignorant Around the world who They think you are all like this.. I just wanted to remind you that most of us over in North America know that it's a small Fraction of your society who are like this and that they are not liked by the rest of your country for the shame they bring... My first time traveling was to India and I loved it; I had never left Canada and was always just a negative person assuming that I wouldn't be welcome in another person's own country. I assumed that simply because I was from Canada ,People would think I'm rich or even well off.. even though I'm barely able to pay rent and my bills and I definitely don't have any luxuries in my life. But I ended up staying in India for over 3 months because the people that I met in those first 2 weeks were so amazing and took time to show me around and even welcomed me to sleep at their home.. i felt so loved.. so instead of continuing on to 2 other locations I had planned for my 4 month trip i instead stayed in india, and it was the best experience i had in my life. 🇨🇦🤝🏼 🇮🇳
Pierogi, I'm calling you Big Daddy from now on 😂 The things those scammers say man! It's too much. Also, I had no idea so many scammers were shirtless!
U guys killing it, it's so inspiring, i wish i could save people like how you are doing, but I'm not socially capable to do it, we are not free to do the right thing we wanted to do for our country because of stinky powerful people, but still i will always support you and spread education to people how not to get scammed, thanks perogi, love from Indians
Its what I expected tbh. Scammers seem like the type to be fat asses sitting around all day stuffing their faces with gross snacks with little to no clothing. theyre like discord mods that way.
I am an IT professional on a much lower level than these guys. I applaud and admire what they are doing. I also applaud AnyDesk for joining the fight instead of being like Facebook, Twitter, and RUclips saying they can't do anything. Well done AnyDesk!
@penileymajorey7174no. Don't. Not all Indians are doing this. Don't lump the entire group of people into this category. There are good Indians too that hate what these scammers are doing. And there are American scammers and con artists too. Evil and corruption are not specific to one country or group of people.
You guys should be funded by every government.. this is better than any police investigation. Love the whole community and how you support each other!!!
Crazy that AnyDesk is this invested in it. Obviously they want to stamp it out, but, to literally host you guys, and go out of their way to help you is immense. Fair play to them.
NOT ONLY all of that, but every time they ban a scammer, they literally lose a customer 😵 they are helping you guys lower their top-line revenue! Granted, the potential brand value they're creating in goodwill with the consumers and companies seeing this video could be significant.
I was never sure which remote desktop app to use and had just been sticking to TeamViewer out of habit, but after seeing AnyDesk not only support and help run this take-down but also sacrifice some of their business to do the right thing, it's made my choice clear, and I'll be sure to recommend them to my friends and clients going forward. Good on the whole team for this amazing progress!
That lady crying almost had me convinced that she was in full distress. That was awesone acting. And great work scamming the scammered. Love what you all do.
@@crocadillius6418yeah it's a good pr move but, also anydesk is one if not the only company that actively institutes software updates to prevent scammers.
They've stepped up. They have an awesome tool, and scammers figured out how to misuse it. But Anydesk is working to punish those scammers, and I love it.
I work at a pharmacy that sells gift cards, I've become something of a local champion of the people--I've stopped over 50 victims of this type of scam-work. I only hope your message reaches more than just people who answer their phones, but also retail employees. I know my contribution isn't much, but it feels good to know there are so many more of you all fighting the good fight too!
Nah dude, it means a lot. Who knows how many of those 50 people were about to spend the last of their cash cause they were getting crooked by a scammer. Respect🫡
Please keep doing what you do!! Larger scale it may seem small but every single person you help has their lives significantly re-directed for the better thanks to you ❤
yep i worked in retail for 7 years an i cant count how many times i haved stoped someone from bying appel giftcard for 10.000 - 15.000 who said that they whare told to send it to someone
Keep up the good work. I like to shut down text scammers by reporting their webites to their ISPs. They don't text me anymore. I think they know that texting me a link is a bad idea now. LOL. If you get texted a link never click on it. Even if it's from someone you know. Stay safe!
I was recently a scam victim to the bank scammers while I was sick and they took my entire life savings. Unfortunately the bank I'm with will not reimburse me for any of the loss so seeing them helping the victims makes me so happy. Thank you so much for your work.
I work for the Geek Squad at Best Buy as an Advanced Repair Agent.... Thank you for fighting back! I can not tell you how many victims have come to us for help. We try to educate our clients how to avoid these scams literally every day.
Pass this video around to the legitimate Geek Squads out there. Scams are being done using the Geek Squad brand. Now you have something tangible to show the corporate office. Be a hero.

My husband who has mild dementia was scammed a couple of years ago. Fortunately I was able catch him....doing 100mph....to stop him from buying Walmart gift certificates for them. I closed our accounts.....took his drivers license....and cut up his cards to the new accounts. For whatever reason it did not sink in to his brain. They would call continually and I would have to yell at him to hang up. I found your site and turned it on. I made him watch time and again. Then one day he said "that's what they did to me". Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh finally. He now recognizes the calls and hangs up. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I highly recommend using the hiya app to block those calls. I've been using it now for 3 yrs. Small yearly prescription and I never "receive" those kind of calls anymore. I love it and highly recommend it. My dad almost got scammed. I sent him links to several scam baiters and he now knows what to watch out for. There's also now I seen that gas pump skimmers can be detected via Bluetooth. I highly recommend looking into that and keep spreading the word (RUclips links) to get the word out. Education on this matter is definitely key.
I am an Indian and My father was about to get scammed just yesterday... I cannot thank you enough for doing this. I will support this as much as I can.
I have an elderly mother that I worry about getting scammed and I appreciate what you guys are doing to help the vulnerable. Keep up the fight! Thanks!
My grandmother has a thing on her phone where if you call it you have to press a number to "confirm you're not a telemarketer" so she doesn't get robo calls. I think you can do it for a landline if you talk to your provider.
I ensured my parents computers run linux for this very reason (also it never breaks so saves me alot of time fixing it ) as soon as they say they are from "microsoft or norton or macafee" my parents just hang up
@@davidhenry352 That's not realistic, that would shut off many thousands of legit businesses. Even though there are many scammers, it's still just a tiny fraction of the population that uses anydesk.
My late grandfather was scammed for nearly $15,000 back in 2012. I’d like to think he is smiling down at y’all from heaven and laughing at the exposed scammers. Thanks for all your hard work for keeping these criminals from scamming other vulnerable grandparents, y’all rock!
Cassandra Munoz... Those nice guys look like P Newman and R Redford in "The Hook".... Good fellows, using hookers methods, who fucked up badass Hookers. I loved it.
God bless these high level computer guys. Ryan and the rest of them. And also the mission of all the paynack people . When i saw him call that lady on his cell that made it real. I think of my grandparents. Wish i had millions to give all of you.
This can't be understated. The scambaiter community is having a real, tangible effect that EVERYONE can notice, even those of us who haven't been actually scammed.
I agree . I legit used to get HUNDREDS OF calls from Monday through Sunday and they would start right at 8:00 am until 9pm . Since last year November they’ve stopped !! These guys are doing the Lord’s work 🎉🎉
Ya'll do know the government came down on phone carriers about this? The reduction in calls has all of nothing to do with scam baiters... Scam baiters force these people into a moral quandary. The government makes change.
@@GodsBelovedDaughter08 what's a possibility is since you didn't fall for any of the calls the scammers stopped paying to get your information since you were unlikely to fall for one, reducing the amount of call you got. but it could also be the scambaiter community doing it
I work for the customer service of a top american bank and hearing the customers call in once they’ve been a victim is traumatic. Thank you for saving so many people from these people.
You should reach out to AnyDesk or bring it up to your higher ups and see if there is anything you can assist with! I’m sure money-laundering happens often within your company as unfortunately there’s not much we can do to stop it as hard as we try. Maybe Pierogi or AnyDesk has some ideas in mind to decrease money-laundering?
Same here and it is so sad to hear older people or people who speak a different language being scam because they don't know much about technology. And are tricked into providing personal information or buy gift cards
Yeah part of me feels bad because it's often poor people having to resort to doing something immoral, but the fact that people like your grandmother are being targeted is just unforgivable.
@@dontxtalk It's getting harder to find sympathy for people who respond to being stopped by screaming "F*ck you! Your mother is a wh*re!" when they were trying to steal the life savings of a confused elderly person, and it's usually someone who has no source of significant income or backup savings. That's just...evil. No conscience whatsoever.
I had someone try to scam me today from India. Luckily I knew about this channel and caught on the second they asked me to download onlydesk. I had a problem with my Macbook and Googled "Apple support number" and made the mistake of clicking the top number, which was a paid AD. It's immoral how Google allows these people to advertise. Be careful people.
@@Minotaur-ey2lgI like to setup the call by saying that I’m glad this isn’t a scam because of *old family member* who couldn’t *buy food / afford medical bills / etc* because they got scammed. Then after a while I say I’m glad they aren’t a scammer because if I were their mother I’d be ashamed if my son ruined lives like my *old relative’s*
I no longer do business in Canada with any Indians that move here because Indian + Scam is as normal as saying Canadian +Hockey or Maple Syrup... Wish youd all go the F home cause all they do is complain here....why leave India if its so bad in the west? I do contracting and my god the cheapness and unwillingness to pay...literally had us examine with a lawyer if we can refuse business without being called out for Racism or some left wing BS law.. the $5000 spent on the lawyer will save me $500,000 in my lifetime. I trust an Iranian, Russian, Chinese, Afghani or North Korean faster than i would an Indian.... Sorry but its just facts from 10 years of business.
Good to hear you're on the right side. One thing you can do in India is help elect officials who aren't corrupt and don't look the other way on crime like this, because too many do. More pressure on this illegal activity should be coming from the Indian government than scambaiters, yet I don't think that's the case.
I'm a third-level customer service guy from a company with a huge contact center. Let me know where I can sign up as a volunteer next year. THANK YOU ANYDESK! Make them not trust their favorite tool.
The collab with AnyDesk and banning the scammers was the most badass thing I've ever seen. Even funnier when I saw the AnyDesk uniform guy participating in baiting. One of the best scambaiting events I've ever seen.
Honestly in recent years I've noticed a sharp decline in the number of scam calls me and my family receive. I thought it was just tech getting better or something, but this video makes the decline make more sense. For every call center shut down, there is a noticeable difference made in the lives of those around me. Please never stop until they're all gone.
I just want to add that the way the scammers flaunted their riches on social media was the most narcissistic thing i have seen in my 56 plus years. Un fricking believable!
I am a call center supervisor for a healthcare company. So many of our members are apprehensive of speaking to us when we call them because of all the scammers out there, that they're being severely impacted with their coverage. You're doing great work here, keep this up because so many people depend on it. Its not just their direct victims, but those that are weary of answering their phones because these vile people exist.
Bingo. This is exactly how I feel when speaking to anyone in a call center now. Legit or not, I'm always skeptical. I've had scammers call me and my local bank was the number that shown up. They're definitely blurring the lines.
I literally never answer any call that isnt saved in my phone because im tried of dealing with scammers. Hopefully none of my family calls me from jail or in an emergency because i wont answer lol
I'm currently with a retailer, and previously I worked for medical and disability insurance companies. People are so leery of answering their phones that they miss legit calls with important information. I nearly had to send a freight shipment for thousands of dollars back yesterday, because the customer wouldn't accept a call from the freight company's unknown number to schedule the delivery.
Awesome work! Sure wish you all were working against Facebook scammers. They scammed my wife out of nearly $30,000 while she was on Chemotherapy. When she figured it out, it broke her heart. She died, feeling guilty about being scammed. I'm not about revenge, but I pray families can be protected from these bottom-feeding leeches. God bless you all💯❤️
May the Lord comfort you. God bless you. Jesus Loves you very much. Here are some scriptures: "Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord." *Romans 12:19* "You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven." *Matthew 5:43-45* "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives." *Genesis 50:20* 🙏❤✝
I am so sorry. Yes FB scammers are the worst, and FB is doing next to nothing. I report, and the answer is" does not violate community standards". I can sniff out almost all of them with some sleuthing. I am not computer expert, but I do the best I can. Again , so sorry!
My mom was scammed. She sent $5000 cash. Fortunately she called me right after dropping the package off at UPS and I was able to retrieve it before it left the building. These people are the lowest of the low, what you and your team is doing is a real blessing. THANK YOU! P.S. my mom's had several scam calls since, but now she enjoys playing with them....hoping she'll get more calls. Maybe she'll join you someday in the People's Call Center...lol.
I am so glad you could stop that package! All the best to your family and in a roundabout way, here's hoping your mom is going to have a lot of fun trolling the scamming scumbags :)
It's not a good idea to play with them on the phone anymore. If they already have some of your information then all they need from you is your voice, so they can call your bank pretending to be you
It never ceases to overwhelm me watching good regular people and seeing the profound effect of their fantastic work you and the team do. Obviously, the passion for doing good is written on the teams faces. It's a bit run-on and wordy, but you get my point. Bravo!
I would like to say any desk allowing this to happen and participating in dismantling these scumbags is the coolest thing I have seen a company do in a while.
Thank you! Scammers wiped out my dads whole retirement. It cost me close to 30,000.00 to get my dad back to a less than normal life. My heart breaks for anyone who has gone through it.
My goodness, I wanna punch these scammers and leave them broke for life. Sorry for the aggressive statement, what they're doing is an international threat ro everyone's welfare.

me too and still dealing with fallouts of an all devices hack, that considering the way my concern over identification of 4- 8 devices on the network that I couldn't determine was turned into distrust of everyone in the family alone, the bitcoin payment might have been wiser than all the time lost on You tube crash cyber security courses. Rude awakening for all us baby boomers
Don't be intimidated. You know more than you realize. Even the guy in charge of this stated that he recently fell for a scam. With knowledge multiplying so quickly today, it is easy to feel intimidated. I have to remind myself of this also. Just keep on learning!

The sense of satisfaction I felt to see everyone around Nacho supporting him as he basked in the glory of pulling off a reverse connection on that fool was incredible.
The umpteenth example you don’t need government. Actually government has been the biggest tumor of the planet. And faith in government the biggest religion/cult.
Because it's technically illegal. And you can't lawfully fight illegal with illegal. It's literally no different that what the scam callers do. So you can be either okay with both or not okay with both, but you can't be okay with one and not the other (legally).
A man around my area committed su***de..after loosing his whole life's earning to a scammer..he didn't receive any help from the authorities either..he was such an amazing hard working joyful man..we miss him..watching your videos..gives us a lot of hope..thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
Unfortunately what they do likely doesn't actually prevent much scamming long term, this is just feels good stuff. Also you have no idea what governments are doing to prevent stuff like this so I'm not sure where your comment comes from.
@@Neurotik51 If they actually search for resources and leads they can find a lot about the scammers that are nearby their area, the indian police for example. They can carry out investigations and put the building or "call center" in question under surveillance. It doesn't take much to wiretap given these guys' skills I know they have a tech intelligence unit to deal with these but they don't utilize it, in a way, we can definitely say, the government is moving, but not actually trying do something.
@@Neurotik51 Shutting down their call centers, temporarily or for good, getting law enforcement involved, exposing corrupted officers and politicians, all of these things help. On the long run, it's true that the effect is limited, as even if you completely dismantle an operation, new ones can get setup to take its place. To root out scamming on the long run, you need to root out corruption at a systemic level in India and other countries where scammers can operate with relative impunity. You need to attack crime at its root, which means fighting poverty, offering young people (especially young men) some legitimate ways to make a living so there is less incentive to turn to crime. Unfortunately, there isn't not a lot that scam baiters can do on that front. Scambaiters can wield the stick but they can't wield the carrot. The stick on its own has limited power. But the stick is still a useful tool. They are doing what they can. Basically, rooting out the whole problem would require changing a whole society which is way beyond what small actors like this can do. They can treat the symptoms but not the disease. But treating the symptoms of a disease is still useful.
@@Neurotik51if nothing else this project adds major delays to the scammer's wrath. and clearly the government is not much considering how many innocent people get scammed every single day.
considering the fact that scammers are growing in numbers everyday with new methods and more creative ways, evolving like a virus as the number of their victims increases, the government doesn't do much, of anything at all. and that goes for all the north america not just US@@Neurotik51
@@friedmule5403 It's a lot more complicated than that. Blacklisting an entire country because there are many scammers there can potentially open them up for litigation, let alone losing nearly 30% of the potential client base.

@@hugh_jasso There weren't scammers when they were raising you. I am still sharp enough, I know what not to do. If I am feeling feisty and get an incoming call I may play with them and waste their time, but *NEVER* give information. As I age from here on out and scammers get more creative, I can't promise it will stay that way... :(

I am from India, and everyday we have to deal with these scumbags in this country too. Thank you guys for what you are doing!
Netflix needs to fund these guys so they can do a full series with a serious budget.
That would be epic
Lol no Netflix will cancel them, they need more stable funding so they can keep up the good work forever.
YES!!!
💯
@@Lily-xl4hgLol you’re so right 😂
The fact they have genuine elderly people scripting a couple arguing with each other over their finances with a scammer is just hilarious
These guys deserve an award. 🤭👏🏻
That wasn't scripted. He asked her to pretend to be his wife and then .... magic. It was amazing to watch. Im person and on video.
The fact that one of the scammer dudes thought "I'll suck your d*ck!" was a good insult is also extremely hilarious lol - especially because they were saying it to a woman 😂
Also: "Anydesk has a big d*ck" - like, that's kind of a compliment, even though it's a software company and not a human being with a body?
Rip and tear until it is done. Keep up the good work fellas.

Thank You for what you are doing! Last November I got scammed. I am a disabled Viet Nam era veteran they took every penny I had and was unable to participate in my grandkids Christmas, I ended up getting a new computer and I still am not caught back up. I also have two different cancers in my lungs. I keep fighting to live but it is great to see what you do to keep other's protected. I once was a warrior for other's now I have to be a warrior for myself. These people are the lowest form of human existence. Thank you and God Bless you! Keep up the good fight!!!
Thanks! freaking awesome! Much love to you guys for taking these scumbags down.

Thanks for your awesome work from Europe. We'd get at least one call a day from Microsoft support scammers for weeks and we always have a lot of fun. Not everybody is lucky though, so thanks a ton.
Absolutely incredible job man. The amount of organization behind the PPC 2023 can't be underestimated. Thank you @AnyDesk too for making the 1st week possible - great job Matt, Pierogi, Brandon and SP team.

Imagine if governments and communications companies actually did their jobs and this was unnecessary? Huge thanks to all of you!

Maybe unnecessary but needed.. Now the Government can fund this without no problems and the Communications companies can now help them with no problems..

You should have kept this idea to yourself. Unless you want to act on it and make it a reality. I'm not sure ho you could monetise it but it's not a bad idea.
sounds good until you realize that the call centers could send in people too workk
As an Indian, thank you so much for this. These scammers are vicious to us all, they don't even spare their own country. I'm not in the cybersecurity field so I'm not of much help but I hope your video is successful so you're able to carry more of such operations.
Yes it throws just a bad picture on india, only because of this fucking scammers... That is so sad..
I've seen the huge Chinese scamming call centers, they are even more ruthless to Indian and their own nationals, scammers are a worthless bunch
Huge respect to you brother, Even though I am not from your country it genuinely upsets me because of what these people do and how they make your culture and race look bad to those who are ignorant Around the world who They think you are all like this.. I just wanted to remind you that most of us over in North America know that it's a small Fraction of your society who are like this and that they are not liked by the rest of your country for the shame they bring... My first time traveling was to India and I loved it; I had never left Canada and was always just a negative person assuming that I wouldn't be welcome in another person's own country. I assumed that simply because I was from Canada ,People would think I'm rich or even well off.. even though I'm barely able to pay rent and my bills and I definitely don't have any luxuries in my life. But I ended up staying in India for over 3 months because the people that I met in those first 2 weeks were so amazing and took time to show me around and even welcomed me to sleep at their home.. i felt so loved.. so instead of continuing on to 2 other locations I had planned for my 4 month trip i instead stayed in india, and it was the best experience i had in my life. 🇨🇦🤝🏼 🇮🇳
Do you think if arrested and confirmed scammers were burned alive, that it would reduce their numbers?

Hi Sir i know one of the scammer in india who is rich now scamming since last 10years and i have some data that i want to share.
Its what I expected tbh. Scammers seem like the type to be fat asses sitting around all day stuffing their faces with gross snacks with little to no clothing. theyre like discord mods that way.
I am an IT professional on a much lower level than these guys. I applaud and admire what they are doing. I also applaud AnyDesk for joining the fight instead of being like Facebook, Twitter, and RUclips saying they can't do anything. Well done AnyDesk!
For evil to prevail good people must do nothing. Doing nothing supports the wrong doing! Wish those companies join the fight.
are you good in helping me get my email as i have no access to it due to my old phone number to it i would appreciate any help
@penileymajorey7174no. Don't. Not all Indians are doing this. Don't lump the entire group of people into this category. There are good Indians too that hate what these scammers are doing. And there are American scammers and con artists too. Evil and corruption are not specific to one country or group of people.

@@joyboyskyhighfound the disgruntled scammer
Crazy that AnyDesk is this invested in it. Obviously they want to stamp it out, but, to literally host you guys, and go out of their way to help you is immense. Fair play to them.
It's good marketing for them. It's win win. Good on them.
NOT ONLY all of that, but every time they ban a scammer, they literally lose a customer 😵 they are helping you guys lower their top-line revenue!
Granted, the potential brand value they're creating in goodwill with the consumers and companies seeing this video could be significant.
I was never sure which remote desktop app to use and had just been sticking to TeamViewer out of habit, but after seeing AnyDesk not only support and help run this take-down but also sacrifice some of their business to do the right thing, it's made my choice clear, and I'll be sure to recommend them to my friends and clients going forward. Good on the whole team for this amazing progress!
Its a pr stunt. They dont care, for many many years theyve allowed scammers to do whatever they want with their software
@@BlairBryngelsonIs that worth being known as a app made for scammers? That's sure to hurt their PR.

My husband who has mild dementia was scammed a couple of years ago. Fortunately I was able catch him....doing 100mph....to stop him from buying Walmart gift certificates for them. I closed our accounts.....took his drivers license....and cut up his cards to the new accounts. For whatever reason it did not sink in to his brain. They would call continually and I would have to yell at him to hang up. I found your site and turned it on. I made him watch time and again. Then one day he said "that's what they did to me". Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh finally. He now recognizes the calls and hangs up. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I highly recommend using the hiya app to block those calls. I've been using it now for 3 yrs. Small yearly prescription and I never "receive" those kind of calls anymore. I love it and highly recommend it. My dad almost got scammed. I sent him links to several scam baiters and he now knows what to watch out for. There's also now I seen that gas pump skimmers can be detected via Bluetooth. I highly recommend looking into that and keep spreading the word (RUclips links) to get the word out. Education on this matter is definitely key.
Thanks to you all and the sponsors. You are awesome people!

God bless these high level computer guys. Ryan and the rest of them. And also the mission of all the paynack people . When i saw him call that lady on his cell that made it real. I think of my grandparents. Wish i had millions to give all of you.
Not going to lie I have notice a huge decrease in recieving calls from random numbers in the past year. You guys are doing god's work.
This can't be understated. The scambaiter community is having a real, tangible effect that EVERYONE can notice, even those of us who haven't been actually scammed.
I agree . I legit used to get HUNDREDS OF calls from Monday through Sunday and they would start right at 8:00 am until 9pm . Since last year November they’ve stopped !! These guys are doing the Lord’s work 🎉🎉
Ya'll do know the government came down on phone carriers about this? The reduction in calls has all of nothing to do with scam baiters... Scam baiters force these people into a moral quandary. The government makes change.
I am missing one funny indian scammer who always wanted to help me with some online issues that I never had 🤷🏼♂️
@@GodsBelovedDaughter08 what's a possibility is since you didn't fall for any of the calls the scammers stopped paying to get your information since you were unlikely to fall for one, reducing the amount of call you got. but it could also be the scambaiter community doing it
I work for the customer service of a top american bank and hearing the customers call in once they’ve been a victim is traumatic. Thank you for saving so many people from these people.
You should reach out to AnyDesk or bring it up to your higher ups and see if there is anything you can assist with! I’m sure money-laundering happens often within your company as unfortunately there’s not much we can do to stop it as hard as we try. Maybe Pierogi or AnyDesk has some ideas in mind to decrease money-laundering?
Same here and it is so sad to hear older people or people who speak a different language being scam because they don't know much about technology. And are tricked into providing personal information or buy gift cards
My grandmother was scammed for over $60,000 at a time when none of this was going on. I fully support what y'all are doing. Thank you.
Yeah part of me feels bad because it's often poor people having to resort to doing something immoral, but the fact that people like your grandmother are being targeted is just unforgivable.
Channels like this have helped me identify scammers and stopped a scam in progress at my work.
@@dontxtalk It's getting harder to find sympathy for people who respond to being stopped by screaming "F*ck you! Your mother is a wh*re!" when they were trying to steal the life savings of a confused elderly person, and it's usually someone who has no source of significant income or backup savings. That's just...evil. No conscience whatsoever.
@@clairepettie well said, but I would never even consider garnering any sympathy for these animals. Take care!
I had someone try to scam me today from India. Luckily I knew about this channel and caught on the second they asked me to download onlydesk. I had a problem with my Macbook and Googled "Apple support number" and made the mistake of clicking the top number, which was a paid AD. It's immoral how Google allows these people to advertise. Be careful people.
Honestly in all the years I've had to deal with scammer calls just saying "You bring shame to your family thief" seems to bring out the most rage
Or “Does your mother know what you do for a living.” They hate that.
@@Minotaur-ey2lgI like to setup the call by saying that I’m glad this isn’t a scam because of *old family member* who couldn’t *buy food / afford medical bills / etc* because they got scammed. Then after a while I say I’m glad they aren’t a scammer because if I were their mother I’d be ashamed if my son ruined lives like my *old relative’s*

I trust an Iranian, Russian, Chinese, Afghani or North Korean faster than i would an Indian.... Sorry but its just facts from 10 years of business.
Good to hear you're on the right side. One thing you can do in India is help elect officials who aren't corrupt and don't look the other way on crime like this, because too many do. More pressure on this illegal activity should be coming from the Indian government than scambaiters, yet I don't think that's the case.
dont be ashamed because of these scammers. Your culture is more than that.

Honestly in recent years I've noticed a sharp decline in the number of scam calls me and my family receive. I thought it was just tech getting better or something, but this video makes the decline make more sense. For every call center shut down, there is a noticeable difference made in the lives of those around me. Please never stop until they're all gone.
So freaking true, I have defo noticed a decline in these calls. A very big thank you to all of these individuals fighting for us all! 👏 👏👏👏👏
Interesting, I seem to be getting more than ever recently (I’m from the UK so can’t speak to other countries)
I get a scammer rings twice everyday like I'm too decrepit to make it to the phone for the first ring.😂

I just want to add that the way the scammers flaunted their riches on social media was the most narcissistic thing i have seen in my 56 plus years. Un fricking believable!
I am a call center supervisor for a healthcare company. So many of our members are apprehensive of speaking to us when we call them because of all the scammers out there, that they're being severely impacted with their coverage.
You're doing great work here, keep this up because so many people depend on it. Its not just their direct victims, but those that are weary of answering their phones because these vile people exist.
Bingo. This is exactly how I feel when speaking to anyone in a call center now. Legit or not, I'm always skeptical. I've had scammers call me and my local bank was the number that shown up. They're definitely blurring the lines.
I literally never answer any call that isnt saved in my phone because im tried of dealing with scammers. Hopefully none of my family calls me from jail or in an emergency because i wont answer lol
Yeah it doesn't help that even when I am working in a call center I can't tell if what I am working on is a scam or not
The federal government should be helping y'all with funds. Go get them guys. Love love love your work.
I'm currently with a retailer, and previously I worked for medical and disability insurance companies. People are so leery of answering their phones that they miss legit calls with important information. I nearly had to send a freight shipment for thousands of dollars back yesterday, because the customer wouldn't accept a call from the freight company's unknown number to schedule the delivery.
Awesome work! Sure wish you all were working against Facebook scammers. They scammed my wife out of nearly $30,000 while she was on Chemotherapy. When she figured it out, it broke her heart. She died, feeling guilty about being scammed. I'm not about revenge, but I pray families can be protected from these bottom-feeding leeches. God bless you all💯❤️

Oh man…. That hit hard. My mom is fighting cancer now. I can’t imagine.
I am so sorry. Yes FB scammers are the worst, and FB is doing next to nothing. I report, and the answer is" does not violate community standards". I can sniff out almost all of them with some sleuthing. I am not computer expert, but I do the best I can. Again , so sorry!
My mom was scammed. She sent $5000 cash. Fortunately she called me right after dropping the package off at UPS and I was able to retrieve it before it left the building. These people are the lowest of the low, what you and your team is doing is a real blessing. THANK YOU!
P.S. my mom's had several scam calls since, but now she enjoys playing with them....hoping she'll get more calls. Maybe she'll join you someday in the People's Call Center...lol.
I am so glad you could stop that package!
All the best to your family and in a roundabout way, here's hoping your mom is going to have a lot of fun trolling the scamming scumbags :)
Good on you man. I enjoy playing with these people too not gonna lie.
Cheers! Well done! 👍
How did they trick her?
It's not a good idea to play with them on the phone anymore. If they already have some of your information then all they need from you is your voice, so they can call your bank pretending to be you
It never ceases to overwhelm me watching good regular people and seeing the profound effect of their fantastic work you and the team do. Obviously, the passion for doing good is written on the teams faces.
It's a bit run-on and wordy, but you get my point.
Bravo!
I would like to say any desk allowing this to happen and participating in dismantling these scumbags is the coolest thing I have seen a company do in a while.
🎯
Well it ruins their public image so that's why they have to do something about it
@@BorgoliiExactly! But sometimes, the companies just don't care. That's what sets anydesk apart I guess.
So many seniors died from financial stress; thank you for avenging them. God bless you
i hope mr beast notice this problem..
THATS HORRIBLE 😢
@@florastewart7957 these people are murdrers
so true
Thank you! Scammers wiped out my dads whole retirement. It cost me close to 30,000.00 to get my dad back to a less than normal life. My heart breaks for anyone who has gone through it.
😢
My goodness, I wanna punch these scammers and leave them broke for life. Sorry for the aggressive statement, what they're doing is an international threat ro everyone's welfare.

RUclips should fund this team full time
I am from India and I can't Thank you enough ... You are doing what our government should ....thank you for taking out these garbage...... Me and my friends love your work and your channel..... really really appreciate what you doin ..... :)
As an Indian how would scammers and scammers families deal with Swamis and Gurus if they would start naming these people on public along with complicit police?
Are any member of your family scammer that u need report them?
@@mikededo9455 what on earth are you yapping about
@@mikededo9455???
Guys, I'm from INDIA. . and i love the way you guys are working so hard to get rid of this scum call centres. . Good luck to you guys and all the best wishes to you people for such good work
It such a shame for your country, why your government don't do anything about this? It's literally ruined your country name
India🤮🤮
@@schrodinger_kotthe government is in on it :). The local police is literally payed off by the scammers
Wtf is your government doing?
@@ishpdl nothing obviously
I’m over 70 not of the IT generation. THANK YOU all of you for coming together to help protect people like me
me too and still dealing with fallouts of an all devices hack, that considering the way my concern over identification of 4- 8 devices on the network that I couldn't determine was turned into distrust of everyone in the family alone, the bitcoin payment might have been wiser than all the time lost on You tube crash cyber security courses. Rude awakening for all us baby boomers
Don't be intimidated. You know more than you realize. Even the guy in charge of this stated that he recently fell for a scam. With knowledge multiplying so quickly today, it is easy to feel intimidated. I have to remind myself of this also. Just keep on learning!
I was completely bi-polar while viewing this. Y'all saved Betty and others. I cried, i laughed with y'all, i was scared for people, and i wud have never understood the depth of Love u have for the people in our country, im choked up... all my Love to everyone of y'all! God bless you all and from every facet of my heart soul and spirit, thank you
The sense of satisfaction I felt to see everyone around Nacho supporting him as he basked in the glory of pulling off a reverse connection on that fool was incredible.
WHY DOES EVERY GOVERNMENT NOT HAVE A 100 PERSON OFFICE DOING THIS 24/7!!!!!!!!!
Cuz they're too busy trying to take down Trump and patriot parents protecting their children from school board groomers.
Because it’s not their money getting scam 😅
The umpteenth example you don’t need government.
Actually government has been the biggest tumor of the planet. And faith in government the biggest religion/cult.
Thank you, yes. When regular people are vested in their community and the wellbeing of everyone in the country, that's all you need. @@JDYTC
Because it's technically illegal. And you can't lawfully fight illegal with illegal.
It's literally no different that what the scam callers do. So you can be either okay with both or not okay with both, but you can't be okay with one and not the other (legally).
A man around my area committed su***de..after loosing his whole life's earning to a scammer..he didn't receive any help from the authorities either..he was such an amazing hard working joyful man..we miss him..watching your videos..gives us a lot of hope..thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
😢
That's awful😔. May he rest in peace 🙏
Yes many stories of that from binary options scams, sadly. Canadian man lost everything and committed suicide.
that is horrible!
Oh dear
Y’all are a different species of hero’s. Keep it up. Help me.
These guys do more to stop the scammers than our governments .❤
Unfortunately what they do likely doesn't actually prevent much scamming long term, this is just feels good stuff. Also you have no idea what governments are doing to prevent stuff like this so I'm not sure where your comment comes from.
@@Neurotik51 If they actually search for resources and leads they can find a lot about the scammers that are nearby their area, the indian police for example. They can carry out investigations and put the building or "call center" in question under surveillance. It doesn't take much to wiretap given these guys' skills I know they have a tech intelligence unit to deal with these but they don't utilize it, in a way, we can definitely say, the government is moving, but not actually trying do something.
@@Neurotik51 Shutting down their call centers, temporarily or for good, getting law enforcement involved, exposing corrupted officers and politicians, all of these things help.
On the long run, it's true that the effect is limited, as even if you completely dismantle an operation, new ones can get setup to take its place. To root out scamming on the long run, you need to root out corruption at a systemic level in India and other countries where scammers can operate with relative impunity. You need to attack crime at its root, which means fighting poverty, offering young people (especially young men) some legitimate ways to make a living so there is less incentive to turn to crime. Unfortunately, there isn't not a lot that scam baiters can do on that front. Scambaiters can wield the stick but they can't wield the carrot. The stick on its own has limited power. But the stick is still a useful tool.
They are doing what they can. Basically, rooting out the whole problem would require changing a whole society which is way beyond what small actors like this can do. They can treat the symptoms but not the disease. But treating the symptoms of a disease is still useful.
@@Neurotik51if nothing else this project adds major delays to the scammer's wrath. and clearly the government is not much considering how many innocent people get scammed every single day.
considering the fact that scammers are growing in numbers everyday with new methods and more creative ways, evolving like a virus as the number of their victims increases, the government doesn't do much, of anything at all. and that goes for all the north america not just US@@Neurotik51
Outstanding work guys, please shout yourselves some beers! You're all amazing.
Awesome sauce!

Huge props to AnyDesk for actively fighting against scammers and those who abuse their software for evil.
This gives me so much respect for AnyDesk. Unlike a lot of companies, they DO care who their customers are.
I am not sure, but maybe they could almost eliminate the problem. If AnyDesk built in an advanced My-Ip and refused to work in India.
@@friedmule5403 Refusing to work in India would for sure have it's benefits, but also have a lot of drawbacks since the legit companies would suffer
@@friedmule5403 yeah but they just switch off any desk, it's better to work with the anti scammers
@@friedmule5403 It's a lot more complicated than that. Blacklisting an entire country because there are many scammers there can potentially open them up for litigation, let alone losing nearly 30% of the potential client base.
@@friedmule5403 truth is, criminals will just change programs. Anydesk is doing it right, collecting data, deleting accounts and data.
There needs to be a department in this country that does just this to save and protect people who are not internet savvy
I have a yt channel and I have no idea how you do all this
Maybe make it crowd sourced via payment links on the website. Id pay money for a permanent group like this.
Thats what the FBI should be doing instead of going after Grammy for being at Jan 6th
Realistically it's going to be very expensive to run a govt operation like that... However In alot of 1st world countries do have education programs to help aid on minimizing being a victime to scams like these.
@@trevorlaird6904lmao exactly. Yeah let's hire 20,000 more IRS agents to combate against $500 transfers within small businesses and individuals, as opposed to fighting scammers, its sadly worth a laugh.
This should shown on all major TV networks, educating the victims is the most powerful way to stop these scammers for good..
I agree
Easiest way to not get scammed: realize that if you get an unsolicited call, there’s a 99% chance it’s a scam. If the caller has an Indian accent, the probability goes up to 100%.
@@logann7942those 2 situations that you think it is proof of a scam, are signs of a scam for you, because you learned those signs. Not everyone in every country know about this, and not everyone has the same age than you and is informed. Remeber this world has people who is older than you, or is not as smart as you. Cool, its easy (for you) to detect scams, that doesnt mean everyone else in this world share your mind processes. Feel lucky instead of indirectly shaming or blaming people for dont be as smart as you, you were privileged, dont brag about it my friend.
@@logann7942 you do realise that most of it's target are senior citizens who are susceptible to emotional requests, right?
@@logann7942i feel genuinely bad for indians that are genuinely telemarketers who dont scam people😂
Would love for this to keep getting bigger and then get people and companies to fund the peoples call center so it can run all year long!
Amazing project that Really need more.
Is an all W situation/"format".

Not only helping victims but also helping Anydesk with recovering their Reputation
i mean anydesk has always had a decent reputation in my field so i wouldn't say anydesk has a bad reputation
Why do you think they agreed to this.
@@thegreatpleco3920not for the average Joe…. I won’t even let my buddies link up to my pc to fix things…
This needs to be on Netflix or Amazon so people can know how prevalent this is today worldwide ❤
What they are doing is questionably legal probably not a great idea.
Something that would really help is an agreement with the indian government to extradite scammers to the US. Thats something that many criminals fear more than death
@@YOSSARIAN313 How come? What exactly is can be illegal in that? They have support of AnyDesk (so you can say they are making sure their soft is used correctly) as well as Law Enforcement (as they made it possible to intercept packages)
@@YOSSARIAN313they’re shutting down operations that steal from people! How is that illegal.
