@hoernchen72 @fasnix @expertenkommision_cyberunfall EXAKT DAS!
Oft sind das #Betrüber die Menschen dazu überreden (#SocialEngineering / #SocialHacking) und/oder entsprechend #FUD machen.
Ist nix anderes als die #Schockanruf-Taktik, nur halt 'irgendwas mit #Cyber' und sei's nen Fake-#Popup.
If you might be interested in how the phone scam "industry" is works then there is a great episode on the Scammer Payback YouTube channel with "Jim Browning" which is illuminating on how that side of cybercrime and fraud works,
I love #ScamBaiters It's a fascinating genre to watch. I think #JimBrowning has some of the best stuff out there. #Kitboga was my first and his stuff is still enjoyable. #AtomicShrimp was so enjoyable I watch his non scam stuff.
Sporadically I check out #ScammerPayback, #RinoaPoison, and a few others randomly.
But #TrilogyMedia is so up and down. They're such bullies. And then they started predator hunting and it just feels like they're getting worse.
@josephcox nice!
This is better than #Kitboga & #JimBrowning together...
Inside a Pig Butchering Scam 
"Pig butchering scams are one of the most devastating scams around. They are a combination of a Romance Scam and an Investment Scam, usually involving crypto currency."
@hanna personally I think using AI to #ScamBait #scammers and waste their time is a good option...
After all, there's onyl so mich stuff #JimBrowning and #Kitboga can do in a 24hr day...
Or the #MadLads at #Da532...

#SanfordCottonMill. Accident case. #CarlThornburg a 12 year old boy who went to work at 11. A few weeks ago he caught his arm in the "lapper" machine, and broke it in 2 places. He said: "I sure didn't mean to. Was jus goin through the lapper room an fust thing I knew everything went black." The family is hard-up. Father is a paralytic. Here is a real chance for a mill to do a benevolent deed by making some recompense to this crippled boy and his paralytic father. They think it's charity to give a boy work under legal age, but when he is injured they forget that side of it. No suggestion of any kind of recompense has been heard. #JimBrowning said he was 12 years old, but that is doubtful. Has worked 6 months here; gets 50 cents a day. Is in the #2nd grade at school. Location: #Sanford, #NorthCarolina.
@lamp @R001my And the only thing people like #JimBrowning gets are said #Scammers trying #PrivacyTakedowns on #YouTube and #Google sides with them instead of calling the #CyberPolice in #India since said Scammers literally confessed their fraudulent business to said Corporation...
But it's not as if that isn't intentional as a #PowerImbalance that YouTube/Google wants to exist...

@Zero2beach Sadly it's a very common type of #Scam #Payment, as numerous videos by #JimBrowning, #Kitboga and other #Scambaiter|s have shown.
#GiftCards are a common #ModiOperandi to do #MoneyLaundering of small to medium amounts, as #Banks are highly regulated and #Currency flows well monitored, but #GiftCards are seen as a #fungible option with far lower conversion losses than #Bitcoin or #Monero as there is a big market for buying and selling these second-hand.
Just look take #JimBrowning, for example, a top tier YouTube scam baiter, who had his account momentarily deleted by a scammer:
One time I was hooked by a scammer, but that only lasted about 1 minute. Then I played them for an hour pretending I was on my way to get gift cards to pay my electric bill.
Our older generations, as many know, are especially susceptible to being scammed. Banks will refund you if you did not willing give out your info. But if you did…
3/x
Another excellent video by #jimbrowning ! This man is doing such good work, I definitely recommend following him on YT or even giving him some of your hard-earned cash through his patreon. I'm not affiliated in any way with him, he's just a genuinely good person stopping scammers from scamming our grannies.
Parents or Police?

Scammer.info - VSupport/Clohub IT Services
Nice detailed info and photos. Hopefully IT law enforcement will pick this up
The Disney+ Scammers
VSupport LLC or Clohub run multiple scams including pretending to be support for Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, Microsoft Office and printer support. Their whole operation is laid bare in this video.
They go by the names of CompTrue, GeeksOfSilicon, CompLoft, ITAssists and a few other names. No doubt, they will change again once this video goes live.
