Ever get a call offering you a refund? Not sure if it's a scam? Best to watch this first...

Translations courtesy of Moazzam Baig:
@17:17 he said "us ki bivi ne bharka Diya usko" TRANSLATION: "his wife must have warned him that he might be getting scammed".
and @around 18:30 mark the scammers said (Translated) : "we got him fooled in very first attempt and he was willing to give us money but unfortunately his Grand daughter intervened."

    Some silly bastard tried that on me a few weeks ago. After 10 minutes of waffling I told him I was having trouble connecting. he asked why? I told him "because I don't have a computer"

    If these guys ever got into my bank account they would be severely disappointed.
  • @megathomas3762
    > WINDOWS tech support > Wants refund via APPLE gift cards > Yes this definitely makes sense
  • @acole5975
    "How has your granddaughter come between us" has to be one of the best lines from scammer.
  • @Simon-oy7kf
    That's like accidentally getting $100 back from McDonalds and they ask you to refund them with Starbucks gift cards

    I love "i will be transfering the call" shuffle muffle shuffle "HELLOOOEWWW"
  • @Sturzfaktor2
    It is hard to understand how being told to buy $5000 worth of Apple Gift Cards in order to "refund" some technical support company does not rise neon red flags immediately. o_O
  • @Meg_A_Byte
    You've just saved some random person $5000, that's incredible.

    How to transfer a call: Swap your Headphones
  • @Mr0Bob
    Frankly if I thought I'd been given an extra 5k, I'd just hang up on the spot and they'd never hear from me again

    I can do some translations here @17:17 he said "us ki bivi ne bharka Diya usko" TRANSLATION: "his wife must have warned him that he might be getting scammed". And @around 18:30 mark the scammers said (Translated) : "we got him fooled in very first attempt and he was willing to give us money but unfortunately his Grand daughter intervened." These guys used pejorative terms for the old guy when they saw the defeat. I'm not an Endian btw. But I understand the language. You are a true hero JiM. Keep it up.

    18:22 in Hindi: "He was perfectly ready to go... He was perfectly ready. His grand-daughter arrived at his back..."
  • @chmilk1
    you should make your command line black text on black to mess with them
  • @blaze41
    I like how the scammer spellchecks "corrupt" but spells it wrong anyway xD
  • @rarelypoetic
    A scammer literally called about my "student loans" while i was watching this video.
  • @xxDrain
    That's so absurd :D He even tells the person to go put some shoes on and get in the car lol, like he's talking them through a heist. Writing down instructions and shit...
