Hi Jim - I have always appreciated your work and never more so than today - I just heard that a dear friend was scammed out of 10 thousand dollars- and he’ll have to declare bankruptcy 😔. It never occurred to me that not everyone knows about this stuff - I figured everyone watches - well, painful lesson learned - please please please - everyone- keep talking it up - protect each other-

William Angelos

And this is why I contributed to him via patreon. This man is a life saver for so many people around the world. The least I can do is buy him a burger and a beer every month.

Kevin Furlong

Ugh. There was that one video where the scamee said on the phone to the scammers that he suffered from depression. Broke my heart.

Jonas Dev

Wow

Kat C.

I was able to find it just by searching "arjun Singh arrested"

Jim Browning

Oh dear... the content has changed. I'll remove this and try to find another link.

Kat C.

I find it beyond ironic that the first link redirected me to a scam page

Ian

No problemo my friend, happy to help the good guys any time…👍🏻

The very best thing to do when you get this stuff is just to delete their approaches and not appear to respond in any way that they can see. Complaining just identifies you as an active target.

Could something be done about yandex.ru. These dbags bought my info and proceeded to phish nd spoof of my email. I complained and then they blasted me. I was get hundreds of spam emails daily for months. My FB got hacked, my phone got doxed. "Agencies" accepted my complaints but did NOTHING to deter yandex. I have since tried to drop that email address but google won't delete it completely.

The work you are doing could easily save lives. If a scam victim was desperate and depressed - and then scammed out of all they had.....

Sophie Ray

Great job 👌

Marita Jeffrey

This is INCREDIBLE news... Congratulations to YOU Jim and to all of us and our parents who might have been scammed by this yuk person and his cohorts. My parents have lost thousands to these scammers. THANK YOU JIM .. another one bites the dust!! Jim Browning=Superman

You are doing great work Jim, God Bless

Jim, just read an article by AARP and I love that you're getting recognition. I wish there was more I could do to help, but you're doing great stuff. <3

Jim, have you seen this. FYI. https://twitter.com/manabhardwaj/status/1381863677146529797?s=21

Hahaha! Just saw this Jim, made my day knowing that this scum got arrested.

Robin

I don’t understand why the police , FBI or Interpol do not set up stings , just like you are able to do. Begs the question of who are they protecting, rather than arresting!

Steve

This is really great stuff. I only found your YouTube today, and been both fascinated and terrified (by how they do stuff), but these will help my parents understand too. Felt proper sorry for that Candian chap, and was glad you saved him. Keep up the good work man!

Ramon M

great work. This is why I support on Patreon. Unfortunately many still fall for such scams. More should be done by public authorities in every country in terms of educational campaigns.

Don Coleman

Great work Jim!

Jeri Spence

Happy to be part of the team! Great job!! I work at Microsoft (not in security) and so particularly hate that they use the brand for their nefarious adventures. I’ll continue to spread the word about this important work. It might feel like the little Dutch boy with his finger in the dam, but every bit helps. Thank you!

Jian Xiang Lian

I saw a couple of videos on your Youtube channel and loved them. That's why I decided to support your amazing work.

Donna Register

I just joined, wish it could have been more. You are a blessing and I hope with the small contributions you can fight crime full time. I'm unable to offer much, but if you need an old gray hair then I am the gal for you..

Metal Donut

While I don't watch all of your vids I will say that I sub just to help you out even if it's not that much money. I respect what you do and the time it takes and I'm glad you're making a difference.

Jim Browning

Thanks Louis. I've been trying hard to get the message over about scams on a medium which is more likely to be read by older folks... this seemed like the perfect medium.

sarah4hp

What AMAZING news! Thank YOU for what YOU do, it is such a gift to see you take people like that down and expose their crimes.

Josh

Omg! That’s awesome Jim! I always thought the police won’t take action against those cyber crime... they finally picked up their game.

Nikhila

This is amazing news! Thank you!

Javikas

As much as we celebrate it and thank you for your work, I don't think any of us will be able to imagine the amount of money and people you have saved from having a horrible life just with this operation. You are a true hero, Jim!

Jim Browning

Yes. I'm particularly keen to work with the AARP as they reach exactly the audience I can't reach... they recently published a magazine article on how to combat scams and featured some of what I do. I've tweeted about it, but if you've not seen the article, it's here: https://www.aarp.org/money/scams-fraud/info-2021/international-tech-support-scam-exposed.html

Rich ODrobinak

Wonderful!! I'm glad that police office followed up on your hard work. Love to actually hear the voice of a scammer, then hearing he gets arrested. I hope he is in jail for a very long time. I'm very proud to be a patreon member

David Stranz

Well done. Just read the excellent article about your work in the AARP newsletter over lunch today. Best way to get the word out.

Lorna Mangan

Congratulations- fabulous result!

Chris Hanson

Excellent !

Rose Tyler

Excellent news. Let’s hope they’ll all get shut down and put behind the bars with the help of the police.

Simon Smart

Do you have the diligent officers details? You should have him check up on all of you friends you've made over the years...

Maggie Willis

Fantastic results 👏thank you 😊

Tirthankar Bhowmick

Great news. I am an Indian American supporting this mission. I see Kolkata police still does not care. Maybe they are part of the beneficiaries.

A Girl Online

Super! :)

Amorlea (Tawaci-TNW)

Absolutely fantastic Jim!

Atul Gupta

They’re not worried about arrests. They’ll simply pay off the police. In India, the worst thing that can happen to you is insult within your extended family. That is, members of your extended family are made aware that you’re a thug, a crook and a lowlife fraudster (they wouldn’t understand ‘scammer’). Not giving you any ideas. Just saying...

Sarah Coyle

You are a hero! Thanks for doing such impressive work.

Scott Nelson

Smells like justice to me!!!

Aliaksei Ivanov

Great to hear!!!

vizigr0u

Fantastic news, well done Jim Browning :D

Pat Fox

Not all heroes wear capes. Or maybe you do? Either way, fantastic work.

John Giddens

Well done Jim! Great result!!

Thomas Settle

Amazing news! So happy we have people like you out there!

Tommy King

Seems working great. Thank you for your hard work

Pistachio

I remember in particular the cruelty of that scammer. I'll sleep better knowing that my parents won't be getting calls from his group

Steve Chandler

determination to get the police involved and supply the forensic evidence .., something of course they should be doing as a matter of course , well done, hopefully other future cases will be just that tad easier .. thanks for coverage and of course entertainment as another criminal faces jail time ... will he learn his lesson ... probably not given the economic climate

Danielle M

Great job!

Lillan62

Awesome! That's great!

Micah Ting

Jim Browning is the Karma come back to haunt these scammers. Love it!

lostcosmonaut

Great work, Jim! Is the ATZ article auto-translated? My brain is having trouble parsing some of the phrases.

Tim Crothers

Fantastic news! Thanks for your incredible hard work on this stuff Jim!

Tarv

fantastic.

AtHeartEngineer

I don't usually watch your videos, just don't have the time, but it makes me happy to support your work. You are amazing at what you do, and I'm glad you exist. You rock.
