I'll add the dubbed tracks to this one, you can go back to the original English audio by clicking the gear/settings button on the KZbin player, then going to "Audio Tracks" and "English Original". I'm trying a new "multi-lingual" voice across all of them, so if you've seen any of my previous videos with dubs let me know how this voice compares.

I had one call telling me I would be arrested due to not going to court. He said i could pay the fine over the phone or the police would be there in 20 minutes. I told him I'd put the coffee on and make some donuts. There was silence for a few seconds then he hung up.

When I first started watching scam-baiting videos, I thought it was ridiculous that scammers would say that there are multiple sheriffs coming to arrest the person they're calling, but since I started watching corrupt-cop videos last year, I now know that cops can't do ANYTHING on their own, not even wipe without half the department for "backup", so that's actually realistic. 🤦

These are actually surprisingly good for people who have social-anxiety; at first, it might be stressful, but they keep doing it so much, that it quickly loses the anxiety and the person will be able to get comfortable not just speaking with the scammers, but actually getting hostile with them and using insults at them (especially in the scammer's own language). It can actually be therapeutic, like using ASMR videos to desensitize to eye-contact. Imagine that, scammers HELPING people. 🤯

One scam I recently had the pleasure to put an end to: female voice asks, "Hello............don't you remember, you asked me to call you back." I asked, "What country are you calling from?" and they hung up! They are trying to get people to say "Yes" and that "Yes" response will cost you big time. Just say "No" to everyone you do not know and they won't call you again. Most re AI anyway and they a trolling for that "Yes" answer. Also, they are preying on anyone regardless of age.....all they want to hear is "Yes"--------- If you do not know the person, just say "NO"----or you can play with them if you want just to take up their time as long as you don't say yes to anything. When anyone calls that I don't know and they call me by name, my first question to them is, "Who wants to know?" Some hang up when you ask who THEY are.

As a crocheter who has seen complaints in various FB/Reddit groups about fake patterns, it's less clothing (although I'm sure that exists) and more amigurumi (3d stuffed creations, like plushies) patterns that we're seeing be AI generated and fake. Some popular crocheting YTers have had AIs generate patterns to try out, with hilarious results, but more frequently you will find an ad for an item pattern, but an experienced crocheter can look closely at the stitches in the "finished product" and tell that the finished result is actually not possible. (For example, yarn colour changes that go beyond perfect to actually invisible, an insane number of colour changes within a small section of the project, etc.)

Mine does but it is a $200 tax plus the cost of the suppressor your local sheriff has to sign off on it and the wait period is normally close to a year. But it is illegal without the paperwork.

Car owners that have had a scratch repaired in your car's windscreen, WATCH OUT. It could be that some glass repair company calls you to inform you that they have a "recall" on your windscreen and that they need to replace it FREE OF COST. NOT TRUE - They do NOT have a recall order and it will NOT be free but it will cost 10 times the amount of replacing it with an actual windscreen replacement. Some folks got bills for 6000 Dollars and the work order has some weird scribble on it that is not yours.

Small dings caused by stones on the road will be repaired at no cost to you by the car insurance company. It's not hard for an expert to fix the ding and it's a lot cheaper than replacing the whole windshield.

I kept stumble on people asking "Is this Lego set real?" on an AI image every few days or so. I reckon AI can never create a truly convincing Lego build, at least to a trained Lego fan like me, because Lego only produce so many pieces, therefore only so many possible connections can be made, plus some other stuff. Essentially, it's still those who aren't familiar the most vulnerable.
