No that doesn't make sense. Pleasant warned Kelly and after that the Scammer still insisted on the money and wanted to send more information to Pleasant.If Kelly was in on it he would have just told the Scammer that he is getting baited by pleasant but clearly he didn't because he himself started to Bait the Scammer. The first theory Pleasant put up at the end seems to be what is most likely. At no point did Kelly anything to "rat" Pleasant out

When I first came to the US to pursue my higher education, within 2-3 months of being here, I was targeted by a similar scam. I had been searching for an on-campus job and mistakenly fell for a scam that resulted in me losing a couple hundred dollars and getting my bank account closed due to a fake check. It was a very traumatic experience and I wouldn't wish it on anyone else. I hope that the videos you are creating are helping to raise awareness about these scams. Thank you for producing such valuable content!

[@mabey8048]

I received a email for the exact same scam just 10 days ago with our school's email address. Luckily our school sent a crime alert warning people about fake job offer emails and not to respond or cash any checks they give you. It is interesting seeing a video covering the exact same scam.

[@MattyIcecubes]

Everyone in this country is confronted by scammers multiple times on a daily basis. It wasn't always like this. Started about 10 years ago.

[@blazaking2176]

Same happened to me, but I thought I was getting a grant, and they took my money

[@lnbt1]

Same as my daughter, who was a freshman at a college looking for a job on campus. Thanks GOD! She gave me the check to deposit and so I asked her what did you do to get this much money ($4.5K). She said just being someone personal assistant for a few hours and an easy browsing the net. I know right away that this check is a scam. I told her to block the phone# and email, and never answer to that # again. Life lesson learn... when you feel that thing is being offered to you is too good to be true, it is most likely something wrong about it, in this case it is a scam.

[@Theresa-wp6kv]

Kelly is involved I think.

[@gotgunpowder]

If he really were then he’s either gone rogue or is really bad at being an accomplice, given that he spent the entire time screwing with the scammer and telling Ben not to send money.

[@qwerty112311]

100% unquestionable

[@QuirkyTJones]

Right bc if he had already been approached several times by similar individuals wouldn’t he have mentioned that in the first talk with Ben? But he played clueless then immediately contacted the good dr and he’s claiming he now is playing scam bait too. I’m sure Kelly would be able to put everything together for himself that it was a scam before Ben told him and mention it in their initial conversation.

[@GigawattGarage]

We’ve had some teacher email accounts get compromised at my college and they send out emails like this to all the students. We are quick to lock down the account and send out a follow-up email to everyone letting them know not to respond but there’s always someone who falls for it anyways

[@triforce_shadow]

Yeah I feel like Kelly is in on it.Tried to play dumb, but magically knew how to contact original scammer to mess with him, while also pretending he had no idea his Zelle was being used, but also has had other people send him money and sent it back but wasn't contacted by original scammer on that instance?

My wife had a scam sort of like this, but it never got as far as them sending money. It was an 'interview' over Telegram (first red flag).

In any case, they got frustrated and stopped talking to me as most of my interview answers pointed out that it was a scam. Good times.

When I was applying for jobs, there was an ad for a well-known travel agency. It was during lockdown so it was work from home and I was immediately 'accepted'. All of the correspondance came from (company) but at a yahoo address so I knew I wasn't dealing with the same company (who I let know immediately that they were using their name and logo). They had zoom 'interviews' so I signed on and the 'interview' was just a presentation of people in nice clothes and perfect teeth and clips with current employees saying how great it was to work there with phrases like "we're more like a family than a job" and "I paid back all my student loans with my commissions" etc. but they didn't ever say what the job is. Just that I could work there and I, too, could have nice jackets and perfect teeth - and an all expenses paid company holiday somewhere exotic. I only watched about 10 minutes. Then I got an email "We noticed you didn't watch all of the video". I said "you didn't say what the job is." so they stopped.

Nevertheless, I understand your point. My Dad who had built and troubleshooted computers as I hobby p, and who had to deal with calling Microsoft to install some OEM software, did fall for one of the Microsoft calls. He was about 96 at the time and actually fairly security savvy. When he suspected this was a scam he called Microsoft who worked to try to trap the guy and restore what had been damaged. I found out in the middle of the mess because he asked me what else he needed to do -- like freeze its accounts. Unfortunately I had to tell him he had to change all his passwords 3 double column 4-line entries. He did those from a different device. What a mess. He did call the credit card immediately, before calling me, and they trapped the charge.

It's not like we have to teach our kids the art of churning butter, but simple things that are still required at some point in a life, like learning cursive for signatures on paper, need to be taught. No excuses. I was being sarcastic when stating we are doomed. But we are losing basic, critical thinking skills and relying too much on tech to help us live our life.

Yep! Greedy people or people desperate for money will.

Always good mate Respect from Oz 🇦🇺

Love your videos. I fell for the Microsoft phone call tech support. However, my Frontier new technology router foiled the scammers, & I disconnected the router to break the contact. A surprise crisis can dupe even the best of us. Lesson learned.

Yeah these Nigerians play nice then start to play tough to get their money. People usually get fired for non payment. time to quit and get a job elsewhere. I love your videos and always learning something new.

Kelly is a liar and knows what's going on..

[@KoloheJ]

I see these posts in Facebook groups all the time saying “work from home weekly pay $1700-1200” (second number always smaller than first) and there’s always like 50+ comments on them from legit profiles. People really need to be smarter.

As a Nigerian I love this 😂❤

[@audio5tv]

As a Nigerian. I am sorry about this . Some of us are very honest and hardworking . The end was funny bcs we was angry he got caught and swore in Yoruba 😂😂😂

[@efficiencygaming3494]

My college email gets a lot of these. The administration is usually pretty good at removing them, but I've gotten a lot more than usual recently. I hope no one actually falls for them, because you can tell some of them are obviously sketchy. I had someone with a name I couldn't pronounce and a Czech email address offer me a "job" one time...

[@lizowilliam013]

sounds like Kelly's taking you for a poes

[@ramblingheart6625]

That’s an odd one for sure.. Kelly could be lying also. There’s a fool Born every minute

[@brynnjohnson7402]

I had a friend that went to UW Parkside. It's in a large area so I doesn't surprise me that scammers targeted that area. It's close to Milwaukee and it's expensive so I'm sure students are looking for extra money.

[@Pittato]

I love you being too nice to call “Kelly” on his BS. We all know what’s happening, but Mr Green is too Pleasant to say it☺️

[@iHeartXtacii]

feels illegal to be this early

[@OfficerBarricade]

omg that Nigerian was so funny i can't even be mad at him that Nigerian had me rolling to the moon and mars and then back to earth 🤣

[@danielpaone6022]

I think your right. Option 3 might be that they have access to Kelly through connect wise and may have Kelly information to the bank so that they could withdraw the extra money when it is sent through zelle

[@dominiquedoeslife]

I’ve been baiting these exact same scammers! Love this!

Thanks Pleasan Green for another good informative video.

[@ryanschuette2308]

I love all your videos and all the other crews ypu get together time after time

[@NWLAEDITS]

Hey Pleasant, I’m currently a student at Bossier Parish Community College in Louisiana and we have the same problems as well with scam student employment opportunities. It’s not just the big universities, it’s also smaller community colleges everywhere under attack.

[@amandajofisk85]

Love your videos Ben!😅

(8:37) So he needs the imaginary board to hire you but can fire you without the imaginary board? That makes zero sense to me.
