My wife just happens to be my carer as I've been battling cancer for a long time now so she has lots of time to spare. With that being said she gets at least 8 or 9 calls a week from these scammers so in her down time it's one of her favourite hobbies to answer these calls and screw around with them. She says that the longer she can keep that scammer talking to her it takes that person's time ahd attention away from a vulnerable victim. If she can keep each scammer engaged for 10 minutes she's possibly saved around 8 or 9 victims a week 🤔. I'm so proud of my wife and her empathy towards the vulnerable, i love her so much.

I asked who it was and she said "Amazon, and someone was trying to charge her account for an i-phone". I got closer and I could hear the "Amazon representative" speaking in an Indian accent. Oh boy! I told my wife it's a scam, hang up. She didnt' hang up. I said, they are going to want you to go to your computer and log into something...don't do it. Next thing you know, they wanted her to go to her computer. I told her to "hang up and call Amazon service yourself". She finally hung up, called Amazon and found no such pending charge. I just want to say THANK YOU for these videos as they've taught me enough on how these scammers work to sniff this one out right away. I'm just happy I was nearby when it happened or else I'd have a different ending to this story.

In 2012 I was working in a Walgreens. We had an older gentleman who kept coming in buying gift cards. Shortly there after we got the policy come down that we had to start asking questions when large amounts of gift cards were purchased by a single customer. So when he came in, I asked him why he was buying these cards. He told me that the FBI was demanding payment out of him and that they'd contacted him by phone. I was the one who had to tell him that he was being robbed. He looked so defeated. It disgusts me that almost a decade later, not only is this crap still happening, but it seems like it's a growth industry. The government needs to wake up. These criminal networks need to get shut down. EDIT: I just want to make it clear, from what I gathered out of what he eventually told me, it had seemed like they were running a different scam on him, but he was refusing to pay believing it to be a scam. So they were pretending to be the FBI to put pressure on him.

I wonder why this problem is not regularly covered in national media.

My grandmother almost got taken in by a phone scam back in 1998 or 99. She was living on Social Security and they did their best to get every bit of money she had left in her savings. The worst part was that it involved me. They called her and told her that they were me, and that I had been arrested in Canada. Her hearing wasn't great, so it wasn't hard to trick her into believing that she was talking to her grandson. I needed her to send $2500 so I could get out of jail, please, please don't tell my parents. She went as far as to prepare the Western Union payment (to a location in Ontario somewhere, so no, not all Canadians are nice...), then decided to get my number from my parents and double check (I was in college at the time, before cell phones were really a thing, and she didn't have my school number). So I got a very confusing call from her and luckily was able to let her know that it wasn't me and please don't send the money. I also told her about sending money by Western Union in general (i.e. don't ever do it unless you know exactly what you're doing). I've never been so mad in my life - if I had had a way to find them in Ontario I suspect that my brother and I would have taken a field trip to increase their violent crime rate a bit.

However, the woman here who opened the package was a super, I believe, and so far most of the people they've hit have been the mules and the mule supers. While they aren't the actual scammers, they are a part of the operations. Because of the need to check on the package and possibly launder the cash before sending it on to the guys in India, I don't think the glitter bomb trick will make it further than a super. Regardless, Mark did mention that he, Jim, and Pierogi are continuing to work with various investigative agencies here and in India to take out more of these scammer operations, and may possibly have an update series of videos in the next few months or so.

I would love to see a video where you just say "Thanks for the extra money, I really needed it" and then hang up the phone. It would be even better if you could do it with a call center where you had audio and video control. Can you imagine their rage? I bet they would lose their minds I love love love glitterbombs!!! Great work guys! What y'all are doing is so important! I was scammed once for about $200. It was regarding Steam (the gaming platform). I learned a lot from that experience however I have learned even more by watching these videos. Thanks for working so hard to expose and stop these scammers. I don't know if the authorities don't know how or can't be bothered, or just don't have the manpower to really go after these people. It's great knowing there are people out there working to stop this and educate people on how NOT to get scammed.

Do you or a family member have POA? Do they have direct deposit? If so have all bills paid automatically on the date they receive deposit, withdraw funds that are left over, if you have siblings explain to them. Explain to the bank that they are falling victim to scammers. Open new account or keep track if you deposit into your account. It's a pain but they won't be able to access money to send to scammers. My dad(86)falls for the mail scams, I'm his POA so I now have his checkbook, he was sending close to 400.00 a month to the scammers. It's heartbreaking to not be able to convince them to stop giving scammers money. I have worked in financial institutions, luckily I was able to stop several people from being scammed.
