The People's Call Center (Day 2)

[@itsryan7738]

I play games on my grandparents computer and my grandfather got a call saying gaming stuff was bought on amazon which i never purchased so i listened to the call and told him to hang up since i learned what they do by ur videos so it helped me save my grandfather from being scammed. tysm for all you do!

This maybe racist but when ever you get called and is an Indian accent automatically assume is a scammer . I know that not all callers who sound Indian are scammers but don't take the chances.

Thank you Pierogi ! My gramma was scammed and she is the most honest loving woman who has never hurt or wished harm on anyone, lost 3 sons before their time a grandson and granddaughter plus her husband a few yrs back…she lost about 500. Maybe not as much as others but it doesn’t make it right. None of this is ok at all! It’s absolutely disgusting and so wrong. Thank you for doing this for her and others who can’t fight for themselves

[@timanderson9896]

Watching the full process, unedited, from start to finish, has been amazing. Pieorgi just starts dropping hints with his wife's name, his grandson, etc., and you can feel the mood of the scammer change. How Pierogi builds frustration with the scammer is also really impressive, with the repeated "your owner" and "your superior" talk as well as the "I just want to apologize" 100 times.

[@melissaloyd8832]

I am watching with my 6 year old Great Nephew and I was explaining what you guys do. He said he was Happy that there really was a SANTA Clause people out there. I was impressed that he kinda understood what was going on. My niece (his MOM ) said that the scammers tried to get her in the car. When she told them that she was driving and would not stop he got mad and called her a BAD name. According to my nephew. THANKS GUYS teaching them young.

[@bigbohne4054]

As I was watching this earlier I got a text from PayPal. Couldn’t believe the irony and decided to have a little fun. Put on an old man voice and kept telling them I was sitting down for lunch and how long it would take. Kept talking about how good lunch was gonna be and said it was pierogies and they promptly hung up and blocked me.

Pierogi is truly a natural at this sort of thing. Great with multitasking and showing compassion. I was almost scammed out of 1800 until I saw misspelling on their site. I get now how easy it can be to get sidetracked and not see what they are doing until it’s too late. Thanks for all you do.

This is really cool what you have organized Pierogi. I've been subbed for a few months now in addition to some of the other guys that you are in cooperation with.

[@chrisyanover1777]

Well Brandon needs to learn how to talk to elderly people. He called her acting so creepy I don't blame her for hanging up. I would have hung up if some called me acting that creepy!

[@chrisyanover1777]

@Elijah "I know you don't know me but you can watch me as I talk to you on the phone" " Carole, I feel like you have been someone who has been scammed out of $4000" Like who says that to someone when they first call them? Especially after they have just been a victim of a scam? That is very creepy how he started talking to her at first and then got all upset when she hung up!

[@kastocks]

@@chrisyanover1777 it’s true he was being aggressive. I think it’s hard for some people to make their excitement seem friendly and not angry lol. He should have had Pierogi talk more

[@daisysunshine1324]

It’s more like the approach police will take. It’s better to get all the important info across immediately before the other persons brain starts to shut down from panic, fear, upset etc. Maybe Brandon doesn’t do it with great finesse. But I see exactly what he is trying to do.

[@chrisyanover1777]

@@daisysunshine1324I get he is trying to help and he is live on camera and wanted to play up to the camera and the audience. However in doing so it came off creepy and came off like another scammer calling her. I previously watched a few Trilogy Media videos and they have no clue how to talk with the elderly! They are absolutely horrible at talking to the elderly! They rapid fire say things to elderly victims that confuses them and get so excited that you can tell it scares the very people they are trying to protect. If you watch the video when Carol hangs up on Brandon he starts yelling and gets extremely upset that she hung up on him. You are absolutely right that Perogi should have called her because he is so much calmer and is a lot more intelligent and able to talk calmly with the elderly victim! $
