I was scammed myself. The lesson here is: if you have to pay someone to get you a job/career, then they’re playing you.
The fact that "Beverly" if that even was her real name never got caught scared me as a kid but important to see that the bad guys arent always punished.
I can't remember in what, but in something, Beverly tried to scam Tommy. She then ended up getting caught. But I can't say if that is canon
@@alanmartin1788 just did a quick search it's in the game, All Grown Up Express Yourself. That's interesting.
As a kid I couldn’t believe we never saw Beverly again and that she was never caught or faced consequences. Realistic to real life, sure, but oh so soul crushing to see in a kid’s show.
Splendid work. It is honestly concerning how unsafe the internet, and the world, have become over the years. It has gotten to the point where I have grown paranoid. It has led to a lot of second-guessing. Checking my passwords, updating my VPN and antivirus any chance I get, and blocking spam numbers have become part of my routine. It also boils my blood seeing people being taken advantage of. The best we can do is try to be prepared as well as we can, and know red flags when we see them.
So true!! I wouldn't wish that kind of worry on my worst enemy, no one deservers to go through such stress.
I like how in the episode they added the man who said "not again" when he told Susie the truth, which is to say other kids have been falling for scams like this. It's warning the audience that this happens a lot.
Kudos to that random guy though. He even offered to help Susie call her parents to come pick her up and evidently keeps an eye on that place so random kids aren't just waiting there alone for hours. There are scummy people but there are also good people out there.

Agreed. A background character who is the GOAT!!
I remember this episode. Honestly, I'm glad they were allowed to make it. I was really ahead of it's time since there are so many scams nowadays
About damn time someone called out the biggest annoyance and shadiest of folks in the world.
That being said, solid video Arteice.
Thank you!
Human trafficking has been a major concern for a long time, but is increasingly coming to the limelight. It's shocking how this episode barely brushed the surface on that issue. For all we know, that scammer probably uses her pink hair as a disguise, and changes hair colors and wigs frequently to find new victims.
she was probably using an alias as well when she conned Susie, I mean doesn't "Beverly Jones" sound a little too obvious of a name to be a talent scout?
Scams are the reason i don't use social media expect youtube
Amen to that!
4:51 - 5:03 "And this is where'd I'd put my VPN sponsorship...if I had one!"
Here are some red herrings I noticed myself.
1. If the lady was legit she would be doing everything she could to prove to Susie that she is the real deal like actually tell her who she's repped with. This would even include telling her where the audition would be before accepting her money, nor would she be asking for the money under such a tight deadline.
2. She doesn't agree to rep Angelica. At first you may be thinking why wouldn't she scam 2 girls for $2000 or more? The thing is, if she made the promise to a. girl who has no talent it would cause people to raise their suspicions and encourage her to run a background check. In the case of Susie, she has talent and "Beverly Jones" see's that, so by agreeing to rep someone with talent it would make people less suspicious.
A very good lesson those people annoy and piss me off. I remember getting a call when I was in college about a grant I won (which I did apply for a couple in college) Now I never got an email from this on either my college email or my personal so I was a little suspicious. So I just simply asked “when did I apply for this” and the woman on the phone said “your so mean” and hung up. Also whenever some of my friends get those calls they just egg the person on and have fun with them to waste the scammers time to make them never wanna call them again.
If they try to waste your time, waste theirs right back!
@@ArteiceTB exactly!
Hey another great vid sis I been scammed many times as a stupid kid not fun thank's for shedding some light u do deserve a sponser ship for ur hard work
Thanks Ramen! You deserve the world!
OMG I was literally just thinking about this episode and thinking, "That was a pretty deep episode." So its crazy that I just found this video!! I loved All Grown Up.
That’s awesome!
I get phone calls about a car payment, and I’d always in a angry tone “ I don’t have a car “, and for these text people, I had to stop them and said a threat that I’m an FBI and they finally stopped. I don’t know if it’s bad to pretend that, but I just want them to stopped sending me text messages.
I’d say it’s fair so long as it means they stop trying to contact you. Im gonna have to keep that in mind
I’m sure real FBI agents and other people in law enforcement get those calls all the time.
I remember being really shocked and sad when i Saw the conclution of this episode
Same, it still sticks with me
@@ArteiceTB all grown up well not the best fallow up to a series, still had some amazing points to make, i also loved the background story episode of the Russian grandfather
Love how i genuinely was thinking about this episode and searched for it on CZcams. Thanks for the video, you got yourself another subscriber keep up the grind 💪
Thanks, much appreciated🙏🏾
Sometime it is too good to be true
If you're wondering "how are there comments here days ago?". Ko-Fi Supporters get to see videos early AND have conversations about it in Discord VC. There's actually another new video out right now for Supporters! So if you enjoy my work or wish to pick my brain, consider being a Supporter: ko-fi.com/arteicetb
I don't even go to scams on the internet just the fun stuff like CZcams Fanfiction Stories and DeviantArt Facebook and Online Stores like Amazon and others.
Still, you must be careful because they are everywhere. I fell for a scam from Instagram and my friend got scammed by a couple of scammers from Facebook.
Whenever I get a call from an unknown number I just hang up. Seriously sometimes hanging up before even starting a call can really help in the long term.
Great video. Scammers are the worst
They are the lowest of low!
@@ArteiceTB True
And this is why you don't go on Kickstarter when it comes to video games & cartoons.
I want to believe most of them are genuine but I understand that being burned one too many times can just lead to people leaving it all together.
I remember this episode from a DVD I had of the show. I’m pretty sure it was the first episode on it.
Wasn't expecting a All Grown-up video
My GF gave me a number to text her, and it didn't show up on Whatsapp. When she wouldn't show up in the private chat on another app to discuss it, I had to break up with her. I can't have someone in my life so unwilling to be straightforward with me.
Good riddance, that's not a trustworthy person
Especially with AP classes it really should be known one should value education more than starting a young career.
We could've saved a lot of child stars so much grief that way, sad
Great video Arteice!!💕💕✨ I’m so glad you mention the bots on instagram thing Ive constantly get dms from people that has their accounts hacked begging me to give them the access code in order for them to get inside my account and stuff i wish that instagram fixed that problem tbh it’s just getting tiresome but overall I love the Video 😊✨✨
Thanks Hendog!! Those bots can kick rocks!
@@ArteiceTB hell yeah shadow realm them go 😈😅
What the heck are they going to do with an Instagram profile anyway? Insta is where I invited girls to talk to me from dating sites, because the info from Whatsapp and Gmail is too private.
She's back at it again with another great video and as per usual she's always right
Always
@@ArteiceTB Indeed
@@ArteiceTB A lighter note in the all grown up game Angelica had the cops called on Beverly at the end.
Ooo...I know you probably know it, but you can use custom "Do Not Disturb" modes to make it so only numbers saved in your contacts can call you and stuff. Very convenient, I highly recommend it.
I have it set up but sadly, they still sleep the cracks
Im happy for this episode as well but I watched it a lot cause it was the episode on an All Grown Up vhs
I almost fell for a computer virus scam.
This shows was a kinda forgettable. This is the only episode I remember (this and chuckles involve but I found the side plot ironically more mendable then the a plot lol). Also I too get texts and called talking about car insurance & I’m like “I don’t even have a license, let alone a car”, when ever i do get those messages I wanna say stuff like that but I’m too paranoid to have them listen to my voice 😅
My 14 year old niece posts pictures of herself and her friends in their uniforms on Facebook. A terribly careless thing to do, considering anyone could see those photos
Great video!!
Thanks Creed!
...Holy shit. You...don't like pie?! Hugh Neutron would like to know your location. Lol
All kidding aside, episodes like these hit a hell of a lot harder when your old enough to get a firm grasp on money.
Like holy shit. So many uses for 1 grand and you give it to a stranger?! I feel kinda bad that I sort of know what Susie was experiencing.
Nothing but stars in her eyes so she won't notice the very prominent danger behind them. In short, solid vid.
Sadly, pie is just a scam cake haters push lol.
Agreed, I'm glad that all she lost was money and nothing else, especially if this was made for modern day. Too scary, too real.
HIII I think ur so neat /g
Aw, thanks!
@@ArteiceTB KSKSHS OK SORRY IS IT OKAY IF I DRAW UR PERSONA🤲
@@EdtonioReal I'd honored! I love seeing fan art of my tiger and getting to share it with all of you!
You don’t like pie……….. oh my
Unless they Pumpkin or Sweet Potato
@@ArteiceTB Hmm, I also like pumpkin and sweet potato, so I’ll allow this transgression against pie. Good day miss. Good video by the way
Man this reminds me of the time some Instagram Creator turned out to be an impersonator and has been asking me over and over to send her money. But the imposter wanted to be paid with gift cards. I kept telling her why not just send me your Cashapp or any money devices apps but then she said that she gets too busy with life. Sadly my stupid ass had been paying her to help her out and I’ve always wondered why she needed money when she makes money on social media. Then one day I found out that gift cards are not used for payments. Gift cards are for gifts, not payments. The IRS, the government, or any business or company would never tell you to pay with gift cards. It turns out the imposter was actually taking my money and the gift cards don’t do a thing. The imposter was covering his/her tracks to avoid being caught. She one day asked for my address because she said she wanted to send something to me. Turned out the imposter sent unemployment cards to my house
Because again she said she’s too busy to take care of them for her family. I was not happy to do this favor. But few weeks later, I sent them back to the company who establishes the unemployment cards and made a shocking discovery that I’ve been doing a favor for a psycho criminal. I ended up blocking the impersonator and avoided from this action being taken any further. There was no way to report the psycho to the police since the account was fake. But I learned my lesson for sure. If something seems too good to be true, that’s because it is. And if someone ever tells you to pay with gift cards, it’s a scam. That’s always a sign of a scammer. And if someone uses your address to send unemployment cards, send them back to the company immediately. Scammers steal identities and victimize you for your address. It bothers me that we have such cruel people who rather scam people for money rather than make a living for themselves.
