  • Unusually, these pop-up scammers allowed me to pay by cheque (check in US). Big mistake! When they made their 'fixation' on my PC, they not only made the security worse but they revealed personal details of some of their other victims.
    McAfee have now banned the account mentioned in this video.

      I've no doubt that we'll see either a feature length doc or limited series about scambaiters in the not-too-distant future. Whether it's something Netflix will buy or produce, I don't know. It's irrelevant really.
      But, based on their CZcams popularity, there's definitely enough interest in scambaiters and their excellent work to suggest that a documentary would do well. Especially if there was an effort to take their work to the next level ie an unprecedented effort to energize the relevant law enforcement agencies and criminal justice systems to prosecute the scammers.

      Learn ALL their curse words. We have absolute superiority over them. The minute they get caught they just go to "blank your mudda ya fadda ya famileee etc.." while WE insult them in their language and do it WELL, while they have "Do one thing" and "each and everything." Nothing wrong with law abiding people whether they are in India or the US, the UK, etc..

      When I get those kind of calls I act really slow, I get them to talk super slow and repeat themselves while my phone sits next to my keyboard on speaker while I work (which I do remotely, always did). I usually bait them a bit, agree to buy their product or whatever it may be and then insist I pay in cash, that I dont have a bank account or debit card or checks but I have a lot of cash and will gladly send it via post ... and it ranges from there from them trying to give their own home address and fuck over their "company" or outright hanging up after I insist its the only way I can pay, but Ive gotten some weird addresses from them, and even had one call back when I hadnt sent the cash a couple weeks later.

Or the, "You brother is in jail and needs to be bailed out!" "Your SSN is being cancelled." How the fuck do you cancel a SSN? That's not how that works.

      Same story here. It happened to my 80 year old mother as well. Fortunately she's too cheap to write anyone a check for anything, so she didn't lose any money. Now she calls me whenever someone call her from "Microsoft" and tells her that her IP address is corrupting their servers. She's still not sure if it's real of fake sometimes, but she's smart enough to call me now just to make sure. I've gotten so sick of hearing these stories I decided to go back to college and get a cyber degree just to see if I can humbly follow in the footsteps of people like Jim Browning and help stop these bastard scammers. I wish someone made an app you can use to melt down the computer of these tools.

    I lived in Gurgaon for 6 months a few years ago (I'm british but the company I worked for back then was indian so they had me work at their HQ for a few months) and the amount of ads for these kinds of jobs was insane on the local facebook boards.
    I did a bit of research posing as a work colleague by altering his name (With permission) and essentially the "call centre" is a company who has paid for leads from the company who own the scam error website, The employees are paid commission based on how many services they can sell and how much they can sell them for. There is no fixed price list, just how much they think they can scam from you.
    I reported 2 companies running these centers to the police (Surprisingly the police in Gurgaon are very co-operative considering people like Microsoft and IBM have huge development campuses there and want to keep them happy) and one quite famously got shut down. If i can find the news story i'll try and share it :)

      To tell me otherwise is to say a cop that's not being paid by Microsoft directly would not take a bribe from a call center and I don't believe that would ever be the case.
