Amazing how this guy became friends with Ben, learned to trust him and saw how easily it is for him to spot scammer lies and agreed to help him, until he decided to scam for easy money.

[@cplusmcretired]

@Dont_Tread_on_me Of course... I was trying to help out someone who was seemingly trying to better themselves. You can't write off a whole continent because some, even a lot, or even if almost all were corrupt/bad. Everyone deserves a chance individually. However, I'm not stupid, so I only gave him half up front and we are only talking about an amount I spend on snacks at a gas station for my family, not some huge sum. That is worth it to me to see if someone wants to prove themselves or take advantage. I've been to South Africa and met some of the hardest working people who live in what we would call a shed, but would still give it to you if you needed it. However, due to corruption in the government and a poor economy they are not able to pull themselves out of poverty. The only people who truly get ahead in Africa are the ones who are corrupt or work for western companies. The schools we visited were single room shacks with campfires for kitchens. If the entire next generation were honest hardworking people, it would still take them 40+ years to turn the government around. So I'm not going to blame one individual for how his country is ran.

I actually had something like that happen to me 2 yrs ago. A girl whom I met on snapchat we became fast friends, but after a month I started to catch on to certain things, she was a scammer. She is someone who would ask for money saying it cost $30 then she'll call 2 more times and say she keeps getting the price wrong and ask for more money and item that cost only $30 was now $100. When you question her about it she'll start screaming at you because she hates being questioned, in reality she knows your on to her B.S. She lives 8 hrs from me, one morning I got text from her saying she was there in the city I live in. But she wouldn't tell me where she was at and every time I would ask where she was at she just say "OMG this place is the devil". Then she said someone was going to text me and don't get the Police involved, I knew right there and then it was another one of her B.S. things. Long story short the person text me saying shes been kidnapped and they want a lot of money for her but, if i can get him 1K he can sneak her out. I knew right away it B.S. They said dont called the cops because they scanners on and they know and they'll kill her. I straight out told them I don't believe this crap and so find someone else to scam. The person got pissed and cussed me out and bunch other stupid stuff. I just blocked them afterwards. And of course she blocked me on insta, snap, and my phone number afterwards. One way I knew it was B.S. was because her name is Ivette and the who text me spelled correctly, anyone who would of just met her would have spelt her name Yvette.

I love Pleasant Green, but he did support Established Titles briefly, so him not supporting shady companies isn't exactly true, but I'm glad he doesn't anymore. Edit: And he was sponsored by Aura in his latest Illuminati video.

​@@gaaraxnaruPleasant Green does make mistakes, but when Posters are like,"That's actually a SCAM that you are supporting, Ben listens and stops supporting that scam and apologizes. 😀

How disappointing. A boss who is from India once told me a saying they have "You give them a finger but they want your whole arm." Or something like that & sadly it's true. Your heart was in the right place. I'm just sorry they tried taking advantage after all you did for them 😔

Thank you Pleasant Green, Your channel has made me aware of many types of scams that people will try to pull on us, A scammer was trying to impersonate one of my Facebook friends, and thanks to your videos, I knew almost instantly it was a scam, Thank you :D

Ben is probably one of the most wholesome people in the scambaiting community and it kinda hurts to see him being scammed. Let Pierogi finish him for good

[@karicewillis]

You meant to say let Pierogi finish the scammer for good, but the way you write your post makes it seem like you're saying that Pierogi should finish BEN for good. 🤔 You might want to edit the post. 💡
