Beating Scammers at Their Own Game | Super Users
Ойын-сауық
It's hacker versus scammer. Scam baiter @JimBrowning beats call center scammers at their own game. He’s able to hack their computer systems and watch their every move as they try to trick people out of their life savings.
The scammers target anyone - and they will drain all of your money if they get the chance. But if he’s lucky and quick to act, Jim can save the victims just in time.
In our series Super Users, VICE World News explores the latest technology being used to fight crime, trafficking, climate change and social injustice.

As an Indian I want to say thank you for what you do. It's a real shame that India is a safe heaven for these scammers. Unfortunately scam call centers for Indian victims and American victims are very different. Even in India millions of people get scammed everyday by these low lives. My father and uncle both got scammed unfortunately and there was nothing much we could do. My uncle lost his full life savings. Many people in India also resort to committing suicide after they get scammed since they have no money and no help.

@@dune4396 So you say. Former cyber security phd working for our company fell for one. Super brilliant person in many respects; can only imagine it was the right time and circumstances where they had too much on their plate and did not see the signs. Edit: So you know, it was a gift card for the ceo scam. Circumstances were either extremely coincidental or targeted where the request just made sense for the employee to follow through without checking whether it was a legitimate request. 2nd Edit: Have seen some very sophisticated attempts over the years. One was a request for technical docs from a company claiming it was a sub contractor for a subcontractor of another company we had done business with. They had facebook, linked-in, and a very well done website. Upon first glance it looked legit enough that the FSO initially just wanted me to check it out to make sure. Going down the rabbit hole, it became obvious that their company was a shill and the employees they claimed to have did not exist. It's easy to get got if you aren't actively looking.

Because there be people on here that would pay him money for his skills. My hats off to him

India has a lot of potential!....but the system doesn't support them to go right way!.....it's just small mistakes which are neglected by the public i,e elections, bribes....etc..This is what makes the Indian system full of flaws & safe heaven for these scams! Tbh even political leaders of India are also responsible for these scam.....some even support these!.....As internet is now cheap in India, everyone (even the people who r not well educated) are a part of this web network......hence they are easy to be scammed!.......This is just a humongous chain of small mistakes which people take for granted and have a huge impact overall.,...... It's not enough if the govt changes some law of something.... peoples mind set has to change!

@@marckassel8593 Just speaking for myself here as there are many many ways to get into Cybersecurity but I went back to College in Cybersecurity to get a diploma since most places wanted to see academic diplomas, which you dont really need but it gets you in. I was lucky enough to get in my Organization and I just work in Identity and Access Management for an organization and work mostly out of Azure Cloud services. Cloud, Automation, Access Controls, Implementation of security measures etc. Then from there, check what certifications you can take and maybe the organization can pay this for you, but there are endless free ressources out there so I would focus on Microsoft Azure/AWS cloud security as most organizations will work with thoses. And really you can focus on anything you want afterwards. CompTIA SEC+ is good overall big certification that covers most aspects of Cybersec. Its what im working on at the moment. I would say not to focus on a giant certification from the start, they are very time consuming and expensive. Get some good basics knowledge, get a college diploma, get an opening position, read and gain experience through sites like Tryhackme.. and other free ressources.

Jim's closing comment is spot on. I almost fell for one once. I am usually quite quick to detect and block the caller but this particular scam had two things that pretty much had me sold. A Brit accent like myself and a scenario that sounded like it fitted. I think it was something along the lines of being owed some fictitious payout from the government. It was when the scammer went to pull up my details that he kept saying he was looking at a blank file (as in an incomplete file a colleague failed to send him prior to his call). That is when I abruptly ended the call as I realised he was trying to coerce me into divulging my personal details that would have ended up being used to commit ID theft against me.
This guy deserves an award. Love to see stories like this
