@@AnimatorJuusoz No. There's several videos I enjoy by azeal, and SOMETIMES he's good like that; but if you don't want a political perspective shoved down your throat, the overall channel is wayyyy tilted one direction.
these videos are really helping my mental health by seeing how aimless some people really are. makes me appreciate how I'm often taking my aspirations seriously
well damn. it’s not even really that he was aimless. bro needed money, and found a way to get it that he liked. a lot of people just really struggle with the dynamic society has been built on. unless you start your path to a good career when you’re young and in school, it can be rough figuring out how the hell you’re gonna provide for yourself. especially if you hadnt even finished highschool.
I'm getting a serious vibe that if someone showed him how successful of a life and career you can get from studying a profession passionately and becoming competent enough at it to make companies need your skills, and then helped him with developing good habits for school, he'd be an extremely ambitious, happy, well-rounded all-A student within a few months.
@@TheHadMattersI know right? His ball park was 30k for six months too which is like brooooo you’re putting *all* this effort and risk and fear for wages that don’t even make it worth it. If he gets things on a better path , he’d make so much more money and more of himself!
Hey, Syrmor! Just wanted to give you short "thank you!" for the work you're doing. Your concept is incredibly unique and I Iove what you are doing with it :)
Hey, Syrmor I would honestly really like to share my story from 15-16yrs of age (I'm 21 now) but honestly it's pretty crazy and I'd hope to reach a good amount of people to hopefully prevent something like it or help ease pain for someone who has experienced it or is.... which I hope no one but me has gone through it, but you never know. Just wanna help as most people as possible, so no one get hurt the way that I did
I think a majority of scammers, or at least I'd hope that, don't actually ENJOY scamming people. Only that the money is SO LUCRATIVE and the risk is so relatively loe, that they kinda CAN'T take it. They got bills to pay and whatnot. It sucks, and they should be punished, but I totally understand it tbh.
From what I've seen and heard from people that run these scams, they feel that the marks deserve it somehow for not understanding its a scam. That, or in the case the scam being run is the kind where the mark thinks theyre commiting a minor crime themselves, see themselves as punishment for people who only PRETEND to be moral but will commit a crime if they think they can get away with it.
if you look at the scammers atomicshrimp deals with, you would change your mind some scammers told the victim to get in debt, so once they pay for x shipment they will get all the money, or to take money from the rent, once the money pass out they could buy their own house i dont feel pity for those scammers, when you play with ppls hopes and you just dont care... you are just shit
Considering how many influencers pulled scams despite the means to run legitimate businesses, I think most enjoy it. Sure, poverty can push someone into this line of work, but how many would stop if they know they won't be caught?
I don't know man I think a majority like it, it's surprising how evil they can be. Only a few people actual regret it. Just look at scammers from india, they be yelling and screaming if you don't do what they say. Evil people
You get a big dopamine rush from sales, it can totally be addicting. My first ever job was selling Kirby Vacuum Cleaners door to door and that was a total scam, but it felt really good getting sales... ...at least up until the time a devastated housewife told me I was taking the Christmas presents out from under the tree... ...I sold her a $3,000 vacuum and her house had *all hardwood floors,* the bit where we'd vacuum dead skin crud from your bed and show it to you was super effective.
Something that annoys me a bit is, I wouldn't mind buying a fake rolex or something like it if it was still decent quality, I would just want to know it was fake and pay accordingly. I bought a copy of a good soviet watch a while ago for like $30 and it is pretty cool. It's not like a good watch, but I don't need a watch that works well, no one does these days.
I think the title of this video could really use being edited to "I talked to a former scammer" because some of these comments are already getting really nasty and making some bad assumptions, I feel like they haven't watched the video at all. Dude has come far and it's what matters most to me (I obviously do not approve of scamming people but it's not my place to "forgive him or not" when it's the past, and he has already punished himself hard, he'll probably deal with more consequences as time goes on I don't wanna add to that. Some of y'all think so lowly of human lives and "criminals"...) To the interviewed : I hope you thrive off a better life to others and yourself dude, good luck when it comes to drinking too, that shit fucking sucks.
The trooper 100% knew and gave him a break. If the parents weren't already there (and I'm assuming he acted decently too) it probably would've ended differently.
I always kinda thought of scammers that way. Yeah, some of them are shitheads, but a lot of them don't necessarily want to. It pays the bills, and when you're in a tight spot like that, beggars can't always be choosers. I'd be lying if I said scamming people for expensive rolex watches sounded more appealing than flipping burgers at mcdonalds. You SHOULDN'T scam people, but money really talks sometimes.
Credit cards have more protection when it comes to getting your money back - probably because it's the bank's money that's been spent and not the individuals, so of course the bank will fight harder for it lol
@qwissy take it with a grain of salt, the first half of the sentence is something I vaguely remember from talking to my bank, and the second half is guesswork! For all I know the safest way might be something like PayPal, but I'm not sure at all.
Wow, what a child without morals. “I’m the main character,” “watch a lot of crime movies,” “I’m teaching people a lesson.” Steals $30k and tries to come across as reformed and upstanding. Gtfoh. Keep these coming Syrmor, love your channel
he was just recalling his thought process at that time, he fully explained the remorse and realization that he needs to actually contribute something to society. does any of what he said justify or make up for his actions? absolutely not. with that being said, you can clearly tell he has changed.
Sure but not only he was a scammer, a drunk driver also, so idgaf about this guy, people can change but its hard to change when people know about your past and are unable to see past that.
Hope these guys do get that knock on the door. Claims to be socially aware while justifying fraud and stealing from people as well as driving while blackout drunk. Then the other guy stealing passwords and leveraging it for money. If I knew who either of them were, I'd be snitching all their details AND fund the lawsuit.

You’re the only vrchat interview host that I can stand. You aren’t an intrusive part of the video and seem like a genuinely good intentioned person
TRUE
Azeal is pretty good too. Not too intrusive, just occasionally asks a question. The videos can get quite long though.

I wonder how many more online fake watch retailers will crop up after this video.
I can relate to this guy's situation but damn his thought processes are so alien I feel like I'm watching someone explain how 2+2=5

bro is the brightest of red flags
people are out there living lives completely alien to me, and i really appreciate being able to hear them talk about their stories
his brother was squidward confirmed.
Thank you for being a fast reader
Man, I wish I could be fast like Norris the hedgehog.
The clarinet slander is CRAAAZYY
Why do I hang out with these people
Don't you learn so much from them, though? Like where you can get schematics for weapon receivers and replica rolexes?
I will fight tooth and nail to support this man getting into web design.
web development is a bit different from web design, but i hope he pulls through, too.
I miss VR chat but its so nice living the fun talks and chillouts through your vids. its amazing who you can meet and the conversations you can have

Wow. I just wanna day that you make great videos. It was so interesting to hear a type of story I would never usually come across
Its kind of surprising how easy it is to relate to this guy
I love your videos so much and I am so glad to see a full length video you would not believe!
BRO KEEP MAKING MORE PLZ
ty for the funny outro, a vid like this needed it
This man really had the Saul Goodman origin story.
great interview, i love how u concluded your vids so it has an incredibly fulfilling sequence that feels like a story book ending

Had a similar story now I’m going into the AF for Cybersecurity. Crazy how parallel your situation is too someone across the world lol
“He said ‘that happens to me all the time’” holy shit disappointed but not surprised.
I doubt he was being 100% honest. He is an "ex" scammer.
That dude seems like he had true remorse and is a decent human being which puts him miles ahead of the average cop in my eyes.
@@IfYouInsist LOL I agree, but to a HUGE extent, once you become a cop, you kind of get brainwashed into that mindset.
Something that annoys me a bit is, I wouldn't mind buying a fake rolex or something like it if it was still decent quality, I would just want to know it was fake and pay accordingly. I bought a copy of a good soviet watch a while ago for like $30 and it is pretty cool. It's not like a good watch, but I don't need a watch that works well, no one does these days.
That is what I was thinking is maybe he should just get into the business of his clients being aware.

The greatest delusion
“God I hate him” i can relate to that anger towards certain douchebags
Loved Rooster Johnny Cash at the end. There’s something about a nice acoustic outro😅
If they felt so much guilt, why did it take fear of consequences for them to stop?
another great video, love the outro.

hoping for the best for that guy

ayo that's a banger at the end there

reminds me when I did animal jam scams...
I love your channel so much Syrmor
I just want to know where I can buy good fake watches I never want to give money to Rolex
L scammer
17:50 bro finally thinking
Got that outro song stuck in my head
i love the cheers theme
I can't stop watching the last 2 minutes of this
This is like a former drug addict interview…but it’s a scammer
No, drug addicts are way above this guy morally.
Drug addicts aren’t bad people. Just people with metal and social issues.
i like the music
the song that plays in little ceasars fading out with the snow 😩
wait is that cheers music?!
14:31 "Sorry clarinet players Squidward is cool"
Bro sounds like chills 😂
Squidward is cool.
I used to play the clarinet. Shit was fucking horrible
They advise to not use a debit card to make online payments. What should you use instead? A credit card?
yeah, much easier to get a credit card company to roll back on a fraudulent claim. if it's a debit card, that's just your money and nobody cares
Credit cards have more protection when it comes to getting your money back - probably because it's the bank's money that's been spent and not the individuals, so of course the bank will fight harder for it lol

Also wrecks a car while driving drunk and calls his parents to get him out of being arrested, which they do.

Seriously
No matter how well you make this guy look like a good guy, in the end he's still a scummy scammer.
I sell jewelry I 100% make sure it's real though
So did you talk to him about his car warranty?
