I have a scammer on the phone, Says he is from Amazon, also offered to remove the virus from computer

@cherokeepatti The longest I have scambaited was about 4 hours, Kitboga on you tube has been up to 16...worth a look.

@cherokeepatti I love keeping them hanging. Sooooo rewarding!

@LunarOrbit @AndysLoft There are people who are making You Tube channels and posting what they are doing to the scammers, so entertaining to watch. Two of them had older relatives that were targets of scammers so they are passionate about going after them. I especially love watching the White Hat hackers getting into their computers and exposing them.

@cherokeepatti Kitboga is really good, others allow the scammers onto their 'false' computers which allows them on to the scammers units, they then delete all the files and syskey them so they can no longer use that computer. Hilarious.

@AndysLoft Pierogi is really good too. Some of these White Hat hackers communicate with each other and teach them all the tricks. I like how they use voice changers too making them think they are talking to an old person all the while getting into their computers.

@cherokeepatti He is brilliant too, there are about 5 really good scam baiters and they have caused the closure and exposure of these horrible people. It is disgusting that their countries do very little about it but it is also worrying, the West is soft to them but it is a sleeping giant...I would be wondering how long it would be before a hellfire missile flew into the window.

@AndysLoft Trilogy media found out the address of one of the scammers, he lives in the USA. Someone was pretending to be an older woman and he persuaded her to send money to him. Of course they didn’t send money but they showed up at his address, there is high security but they found a way to get inside (take a tour of the luxury apartments) and hang out on the same floor lounge trying to decide if they wanted to live there. They got him out of his apartment and cornered him in the hallway and told him they were calling the police and filing a report on him. They said that those apartments lease for over $35,000 per year so he was pulling in a lot of money from victims. If we had an FBI that was worth a damn they’d be going after these guys. That one is here on a visa and hopefully will get deported. Not telling how many others are living here doing the same damn thing.

@cherokeepatti Indeed, happens here in the UK too. It is all very well saying that education on these people is the key, but we still have people in both our countries that trust in 'authority' and would not question the caller. I actually think the Indian/Pakistani/Nigerian scammers are easier for our 80's to 90's to detect but it does disgust me that we have people who do the same in our own countries with our own accents...they are much harder to defend against.
