🕑 Added 2018-08-07 20:34:49 +0000 UTC Hello to all my patrons. Thank you once again for sponsoring me in my quest to raise awareness of scams.As recently as yesterday, I observed a couple of 'refund' scams are two victims could have been out nearly $7,000 as a result. This sort of scam is surprisingly lucrative, so I though I'd do the next video on how these work.
Also, I'm working on another plan to expose more scammers courtesy of one of my sponsors (you know who you are). It's been very interesting working with this person and I'm learning a lot. There will, no doubt, be some future videos on this once the project is complete.

Hello Karen. Thanks for your support. I am really sorry to hear about your best friend and step father... I really hope that he can get over this. It's no consolation I know, but I see this happening every single day. What I do is a very small fightback... I'll dedicate the next one to your father :)
Hello Jim,. I just became a new patron to your fight against scammers. My best friend and step father were victoms. One pretended to be my step fathers friend claiming to know a friend in the stock business and got him to buy shares in some diamond company and emptied his credit cards both of 5 grand each. this devastated him to the point of suicide, so sad...which is why i hear the word scammer and become infuriated, am glad there are people like yourself dedicated to bringing these asshats down, bravo my friend :) Please keep up the good work.

Thank you Jim. I am sorry to hear about your father and I'm really glad your mother has the presence of thought to know when someone is trying to scam her. Good on her. I know Deeveear very well too and we collude in some areas when it comes to disrupting scammers. Thank you again for this support.
Hi Jim. Just made a one off contribution to your patreon account. I am in Ireland, my father recently died and my very elderly mother who is now unwell has started receiving calls from these scammers at all hours of night and early morning. She was very frightened by them As soon as she mentioned itune vouchers or the police would call i knew it was a scam. When I searched youtube and found your videos and from a poster called deeveear so I am sending a little bit to both of you
