I went to the nearest employee and told them what I heard. When I left the bank the employee I had spoken with and the branch manager were talking with the old man.

When I worked at Walmart a few years back, we would get these older people (50+) buying Steam gift cards like crazy. Like hundreds of dollars of cards at a time. Some of the customers would always show up the same time every week or every other week like clockwork. I would try so hard to get more information as to why they're buying so many (I really doubt they played PC games like that) and I would always get push back. One lady told me that she needed them bc she was in trouble. These were poor working folk just handing whatever little money they had over to dirt bags. It was frustrating to say the least.

Thank God for this lady who called the police

[@marilynaicardi1860]

That female employee is wonderful! She did exactly the right thing to help a total stranger! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lifespanwellnessbeauty-60i64]

Where are you getting she was an employee? The news said she stopped by the station for gas and cash.

[@Happybidr]

I have an advanced degree from a top university, and I always looked at these incidents as something I would never fall for. But I just turned 68, and I can see how in 10+ years someone like me could be led into falling for such a scam. The woman who stood in. And stopped her is a HERO. Pay attention to your elderly family and friends, etc. Protect them like they protected you when you were young.

[@1456Sassy]

I'm thankful that Myndi intervened and called the police and kudos to the officer for stopping it. I hope the elderly lady understands now that she was being scammed. The bank would never have you send money that way. Not even chase bank.

[@ShannonMichelle7937]

That woman is a hero. The cop acted quickly too! This happens to older people every day, and it goes unpunished and the money isn’t returned. These scammers are despicable.

[@arianaislas5353]

I’ve listened to videos on YT of how these scammers talk to the elderly and it’s absolutely infuriating

[@ericlumuy3473]

The scammer is in New Delhi, India...

[@PAVEL-JAKL]

most of them are

[@TheValentine12345]

Indian Scammers in India!! There are also Indian scammers in Canada!!

[@alphacanine1014]

The usual scammers

[@HopefulEmpath]

@@x3ef2ds3-l3d it’s Not always that. I get calls from clearly whyte men posing as police officers wanting donations.

[@thundark3736]

why cant they stop touching children? oh wait thats light colored haha​@user-yq4pp1jm3p

[@magala9287]

Kudos to both the lady who saved the poor elder AND the police officer who stopped the disgusting scammer.

[@winnepeterson6570]

Thank you to the woman and police officer who stopped her in time.

[@JW-vi2nh]

After watching KZbinrs like Kitboga for years, it never ceases to amaze me the lengths these scumbags will go to convince/bully a victim into doing what they want. I've seen people pretend to have a child dying in the hospital. The scammer STILL insists that they leave and go buy gift cards or withdraw money from the bank. Once saw a scambaiter fake a heart attack on the call and the scammer (a woman that time) told him to just sit down with a glass of water, relax, then head to the bank. People need to either explain scams to elderly family members, or try to introduce them to a scambaiter they find entertaining, so they can learn what to look out for.

[@michaelinhouston9086]

My brother saw a heated argument between a Walgreens checker and a woman customer trying to buy thousands in gift cards - the checker kept telling her she was being scammed and she knew all about it but the customer refused to believe it. Eventually the customer left but you can bet she went to another store.

[@AlfieMartin]

Thanks to the police sergeant for saving an elderly woman from one of the dirty scammers. 😊👍

[@lisalister8002]

Kudos to the lady that noticed this happening... and did something about it!! We need more people to speak up like this!

[@knotkool1756]

This is why we need people like Jim Browning.

[@AcousticGString]

Jim Browning is literally one of the best. I love his videos. He was also featured on a Marketplace episode about scammers, he keeps his identity hidden. Kitboga was on an episode as well talking about taking down a call center in India. One of my favorite Jim Browning videos is the one where he stops the guy at a 7-11 from buying a bunch of Google play cards while the scammer was on the phone, I believe it was somewhere in Canada.

[@gmunden1]

They need to find out if any family members are aware of her situation. It's obvious that she requires some sort of professional supervision. Poor thing. I'm glad that the customer and officer intervened.

[@ElaineSamuela]

Conservatorship.

[@HopefulEmpath]

I think she was just scammed and not aware of how the scams work. Those are the ones who get taken. It doesn’t mean she’s ready for supervision so much as Education. A good sit down talk, watch some scambaiting KZbin videos and she’ll be set.

[@ElaineSamuela]

@@HopefulEmpath She'll be set because she's not going to have any money that can be stolen from her.

[@HopefulEmpath]

@@ElaineSamuela You don’t think she can be educated on scams? I’m more hopeful.

[@sparklingrage]

Nah that's a fucked up judgement to make. I hope no one does that to you as you age. Do you even know how these scams work? They are very convincing and are engineered to get the victims to act quickly, without time to think, or face legal trouble. One of the ways they are so believable is they ask for the number to your local bank branch and then call "them" for you. Once the bank IVR picks up, another scammer gets on the line pretending to be the bank.

[@mattdavison284]

Myndi you are a class act. Need more people like you and the officer in this world tbh

[@saraxdouglas8577]

GOD BLESS THE LADY THAT TOOK IT UPON HERSELF TO STOP THIS CRIME......& THE OFFICER💙☮️🙏

[@SuzyUzi]

Woohoo!!!

[@saraxdouglas8577]

@RustyCyler it was for drama silly 😜

[@happycook6737]

God bless Jordan for saving this elder and for not letting her click the submit button. This policeman handled this brilliantly too. I pray that God's justice be done to the scammer. 🙏

[@MrFOTMON]

Thank You, God, for that woman! Rarely do people care enough to get envolved!

[@Recckklesss]

This is why a basic level of internet literacy is necessary regardless of age. Even if its just absolute basics "Dont click on anything from anyone you dont know" "if someone needs you to send them money for anything, no they dont" etc etc

[@VeronicaGarcia-hf7jb]

There’s a special place in hell for people who do this. Thank God for the concerned citizen and cop who took it seriously!

[@Hmmmm13579]

Natural Selection lol that old lady is just stupid. Old doesn’t equal stupid. That lady is just an idiot

[@blupengu]

damn, the real hero is the lady that actually noticing what was going on and doing something about it!! props to her!!

[@johncameron4194]

Hats off to these people who saved her.
