That's not the true reason, it was exposed on another video. There are so many scammers that they compete with each other and it's very easy to happen because if a phone number or other contact is leaked to them as an easy target: it's usually leaked to many call centers.

Recently I was in a Walmart and overheard two young employees talking about an elderly lady who was very upset and crying because the Walmart employee recognized the signs that she was being scammed and refused to sell her so many gift cards. This poor woman was convinced that if she didn't buy them that she would be in jail by sundown! There was about six employees surrounding her , trying to comfort her, and someone called the police. I was being nosy so I hung around a bit to see what happened. A few minutes later the woman's son arrived and gave her a huge hug and they walked out together. It broke my heart to see how scared she was , and the relief on her face when she saw her son, and the Walmart employees being so kind and helpful.

@brittanysmith7281 2 жыл бұрын
I wish this was true. I'm a Target employee, and yes, we are trained to watch out for these scams, but it's a very tight line we have to walk when asking about scams. Because most people won't believe they're being scammed, and it can take a lot of coaxing on our part about why the guests/victims are buying these cards. They're coached on what to say, like we heard in the video when the scammer said to say it's a wedding present. But (for me at least) there's no better feeling than when we do manage to stop the scams. I've stopped several over the years. I remember one where this poor woman started crying and gave me a hug because I stopped her from buying the cards. She walked into the store, on the phone and I overheard her say "okay I'm at Target now what" and I heard her say gift cards and my mind was like... you are not walking away from me come here. I told her to hang up the phone and asked her what was going on. I remember asking her if she knew this person and she said no. Her phone starts going off and I ask her if I can answer it. I say "hi I'm a target team member and I'm just asking the reason for these gift cards." He responded with "I'm her son" I look at the woman, still on the phone, and I'm like "Ma'am, is this your son?" When she responds no I was like "Have a great day sir" and hung up the phone. One of the best feelings ever. The woman was so thankful. She left that store more informed about these scams.

They support their parents and help their siblings get an education. Years ago I knew one guy who shared a small apartment with several other people, and he only spent enough money to eat, pay rent, and survive.

It really makes me wonder how they treat their own parents and grandparents if they treat other elderly like this. I've personally had one screaming and swearing at me for asking if he was a scammer... ok, so I repeatedly asked until he hung up, but something didn't sit right from the start of the call.

I'm a home health nurse and while on a visit to an elderly patient a scammer called to ask the patient to get on the internet because there was "illegal activity on her Microsoft account," she was so confused and agitated. I asked her if I could help & who was on the phone. She just looked at me and said, "Please talk to these people for me." I got on the phone and absolutely chewed them out for trying to scam my patient & never to call her again. They just hung up. I told her never ever talk to these type of people, it's just a giant scam.

In finally nabbing them, the cops represented by Friday and Gannon actually helped the potential mark--a lifelong fan of detective fiction--cross off something on her bucket list; she had "always wanted to be in on a pinch."

It was about me owing a lot of money, and they said that they were going to send the police to my door if I didn't pay that day. Luckily, I realized it was a scam after many hours of fretting. The shitty thing is, I've never properly recovered to this day. That call was the beginning of my anxiety.

In fairness though, I believe that the system in place in the IT industries in India, although being exceptionally significant and definitely larger than most South Asian countries (aside from China since that is a population game, as well as a technological advancement), you would eventually have bad eggs who take advantage of the infrastructure at home. And as long as we have trash across the board, it still isn't the fault of Indians, rather it is the acceptance in the world, of exploiting vulnerable people to mint money.

@@ShehrozeAmeen they do it here in Australia too, compared to running a call centre in Australia, Canada, USA, U.K other major countries they offshore call centres and IT departments to India, it's dirt cheap to set up there. 99% off the time when you contact customer support or the IT team for a company it's legit, Indians on the daily grind. These scammers take advantage of that, they are the 1%. Because that industry as a whole is huge over there, Indian officials try to crack down on them, but for every scammer they take down, 2 more spring up. It's a contributing factor why a lot of people are immigrating out of India, I got a good friend from New Delhi, he told us the work force is volatile over there. So many shady businesses aka scammers and stuff hide amongst honest businesses. It makes it hard for Indians moving overseas now, so much stigma comes attached now because of these scammers. It's sad too see.

Man I get sooo many scam emails from them! And some really trip me out with how they are even able to spoof a super official looking e-mail address from Amazon... you can only tell it’s fake if you click on it and copy/paste it elsewhere (the pasted version will look weird). The only other huge giveaway (besides them being sent to my yahoo junk folder right away, of course - thx yahoo filter for working!) is their litany of spelling and grammar mistakes. I will usually be able to catch one or two mistakes, but when I show it to my boyfriend, he always seems to catch way more. If they were able to write English properly, they would definitely suck way more people into their scam. And it really shows just how lazy they are - they really can’t figure out a way to get someone who is proficient in English to proofread something they are sending out to thousands upon thousands of people, in order to take money from them? Lol.

Their perfect victim is an elderly person with early dementia or confusion. Definitely they love targeting elderly people who are easier to get because they don't understand the internet/computers. It's so sad to think about. Especially watching them abuse and threaten scambaiters because you know they are doing this to actual elderly people. How terrifying it must be for an actual elder to see "all their money is gone" or that scammer will find them in real life, or report them to law enforcement/fbi. These scammers are disgusting.
