It will always be an endless game of whack-a-mole, but I believe KZread has the ability to make it increasingly difficult to run those operations that it will no longer worth the scammer's time. In addition to IP ban and special character limitation (for username), IMEI ban and email ban can also be implemented. Give the real KZread channel (the monetized ones) names a special font (and perhaps larger font and the ability to use emoji) that regular users can't use.

This guy is so wholesome, and that's why his channel is targeted. What a world we live in.

This breaks my heart. You said people who fall for this don't have the money to spare, your so right. most people are upset when this happens to them and your so empathetic to his situation if why he says about his situation is true. My sister was scammed by a "friend" on insta and she lost my mom's inheritance and more. I hope KZread does something to fix this. Or at the very least your viewers become more aware and verify that it's really you before they send money. Thank you for bringing this to our attention wishes more influencers followed your foot steps to protect their subscribers. ❤❤

Staying level headed along with some empathy can go a long way. I don't know of any other KZreadr that has reached out to one of these people and had a casual conversation about what their doing and how it's done. You're truly an awesome person 😁

There are quite a few videos showing this on KZread. In one, the American guy actually went to western Africa somewhere, and helped the guy buy stationery and stuff for like 100 students in the school where the scammer was teaching at. Really heart-warming!

“just because he is doing something unethical, doesn’t mean we need to be unethical back” Damn you earned my respect right there!

Man, gotta say the way you handled the whole conversation, you are a very kind man. I hope everyone just could get out of these bad situations like that scammer might be in and hopefully can live an honest life.

One time a stumbled upon your video ripping open some phone of some sort and what made me subscribe to your channel was the your calming voice.( like one of those documentary narrators). I never pay attention to whatever phone you rip apart because I can never afford them but to just listen to your voice. Thanks for the hard work and dedication!

This guy is the definition of decency and respectfulness. Zack your Chanel (particularly the hummer build) is entertaining and I love your not a wheelchair, having worked in the industry that is one hell of a product. Hats off to you.

Hats Off to you man!! That was such a respectful way, you dealt with the situation. It's us the viewers must be careful not to fall into this type of scamming.

Que vídeo maravilhoso! Esse canal é incrível Jerry!

First video I've ever watched of your channel the algorithm finally pushed you my way. It's interesting how you got him to open up while he's still trying to scam you. It really is amazing to think that on the other end of the scam is also someone trying to make ends meet. I love how you said someone poor robbing the poor doesn't make them a Robin hood. Great stuff

This is a big problem and I have found a way to suppress most of these by filtering out certain words. Thanks for diving deep into the subject and explaining how it works. Great video!

I like this video so much, this is the first donation I've ever made to s channel. "Liking" a video just isn't enough sometimes.

Man I cannot tell you enough how much I love your kindness

Emotional Intelligence at its best! You never disappoint Jerry. I can say without a doubt, you are one of the most inspirational people in the whole net.

I genuinely dont normally comment on videos on YT. BUT..... i take my hat off to you sir. The way you have handled not only the communication with the scammer but also how you spoke of them is beyond commendable! Instead of berating them with insults or racial stereotypes. You showed compassion and understanding for someone living under COMPLETELY different circumstances! I have soo much more respect for you than i already did. Keep being you! ❤️

Compassion for those who scam and destroy others is equal to contempt for the innocent victim.

Dude, you are so cool, calm and filöed with empathy. Understanding of other peoples struggle in other countries (even tho they suck) I loved this and you

that's a very mature way to handle the conversation, didn't fell for his taunt and cool it down quickly. Massive respect sir.

Nice video man. I am impressed by the empathy you showed during the video & during the chat.

I really appreciate your human and open minded approach to this situation. Great job!

Man you are a kind human being. It is not easy to have such polite conversation with a person who is stealing in your name... May you live long and prosper Zack...

Bro this guy is TOO kind dude, I would've solved it very agressively. RESPECT to you man!

Wow man are you human or AI to have so much patience and understanding a situation without flipping. You're a dying breed. Great work

Man that was a tough conversation to have. I really respect how you kept your composure

His "act" you meant

I love the way you handled this! It can be such a temptation to vilify others when you can't see someone face to face. Empathy for someone who has wronged you is almost nonexistent in this sort of setting. I think most of the time a video like this would have been a story of thwarting a monster but not this one. This video tells the story of understanding a misguided brother. And It's all the more likely to be effective because of that. Thank you for being such a good example of being true to your principles.

Great video, i like ur calm energy. Scammers will never stop, because people will always be stupid.

Thanks for drawing attention to this. I've seen this all across KZread on other creator's channels and it's really frustrating. I just hope that they don't photoshop and use your verification photo as proof that they're you. It's great that they were willing to talk to you, but it's hard to trust people like that, regardless of circumstances. Hopefully YT figures out how to stop this soon.

I love how at the end you were essentially speaking to him, and hoping for the best to him. God bless.

Finally a youtuber who is concerned about his subscribers.. We know this are scams but you gave you're time, effort and money to let your subscribers know you're with them. You're a real gem

You are a truly awesome person. Keep spreading the love and sharing your wisdom!

That was interesting. I do prefer revenge videos with scammers but compassion is a rarity these days so good work.
