They want you to MISDIAL

Patron-version without blurring Please do not share!

This company in India take advantage of people mis-dialling telephone numbers. They will be unclear about the wrong number and will record personal details and play or say 'Adverts'.

The advert informs the victim that they will be subscribed to a product using the credit card they provide to ship the discount vouchers. They do not make it clear that the credit card will be used for a subscription service. Very many people only realise they're been tricked once they see a charge which might only appear a couple of months later.

They attempted to silence me by sending a lawyers letter, but I've chosen to make this video regardless of the threat because I think it's too important not to broadcast. Thank you for supporting me and allowing me to expose crooks like this!

This is so sad, that poor elderly lady. I makes me mad that this is happening, thank you for exposing this. I sure hope you have a way to prevent sharing this you just cant trust people nowadays

Susie C from Colorado

how about a gofundme for a reward for anyone who provides info to the police that gets scammers sent to prison?

Dan

Great job buddy. FB is now riddled with so called "Facebook help centres". and they are spammers and FB does not rip these fake groups down, I have 3 profiles. I cant get into to run my 30+ groups and 5 pages. Zuckerburgh is a fucking retard but I will never give up.. .

LUDA CRIS

Word of advice, if you cant understand the cust service person there is a problem - Hang up.

David

Listening to this gives me so much anxiety!! That poor woman! Thanks Jim, for fighting the good fight!

I am always amazed by the amount of work you put into these investigations, and can't imagine what it takes to monitor all those CCTV's you have access to. It would be interesting to know if the law firm you got the letter from only represents scam companies, or if they also represent legitimate companies?

Terry Moore

Jim, great video. I always suspected something like this but didn’t think they would go to this extent. It’s the one downfall of the toll free number system. 888,800,866 all look the same especially when you’re frustrated. Keep up the amazing work you do and I look forward to the next video.

Normally I do wait longer, but the 2 videos are pretty different. The public one is heavily blurred and I don't name the company. Secondly, I wanted it out on a Friday evening just in case they get the lawyers on to it and some who persuade YT to remove it. You can guarantee lawyers won't be working over the weekend. So this one is pretty unusual. If you look at the Patron version of the videos, there is normally at least 24hrs before the public one is available. This is the only exception. I'm afraid this one had to break my usual pattern.

Jim Browning

Jim, great work but why does the video go up only a day before it goes up on YouTube? I don't see the value of a Patreon sub without exclusivity.

Thank you Jim.

Lissanne

Thank you Jim for replying to my comment and I can’t thank you enough for what you do because this takes a lot of time energy and patience and again thank you so very much πŸ’œ

Stephanie Humphries

Jim I wish I hD your experience to do just a little of what you and others do take people aware of what these low life people do and of how bad they make their country look.

The anguish in that poor lady's voice as she begged to have her information deleted was heart-wrenching. This scam is especially insidious because the victims are the ones calling the scammers. Thank you for all you do to spread awareness of these evildoers, Jim!

Forbidden Chocolate

Thank you Marita. In some ways, I was expecting their letter because I think they've convinced themselves that what they're doing is legitimate. Using small print and unclear language is, however, the definition of misleading.

Jim Browning

Thank you, Jim!!! The risk you take to protect and inform so many people is admirable and we THANK YOU and I for one will ALWAYS support you financially. Even if we don't see a video for a long period of time, we KNOW you are diligently working behind the scenes for us. The work you do is so valuable to all of us. THANK YOU. They are such thieves ... writing that sort of letter to you from a "lawyer". How DARE they threaten the GOAT of scam baiting ... Thanks again.

Marita Jeffrey

Well, the 81yo lady was much more canny than a large number of callers I heard. She had to really dig her heels in to get a straight answer... most people don't have that patience.

Jim Browning

Yup. The sneaky subscription is a model which has been tried for years. However, until this group, I was unaware of the scale of their operation.

Jim Browning

Their training is too intensive. I think the best I can do is hand the evidence to the Feds and hope something comes of that.

Jim Browning

I'm hoping to release the YT blurred version later today.

Jim Browning

She was one of the lucky ones... she was canny enough to really force him to explain the charges. But you saw the effort that it took. But they will still claim that they are legitimate.

Jim Browning

I'm pretty sure they'll try something with their lawyers. They've made too much money on their 'process' and won't like this exposure.

Jim Browning

Jim, stellar work - as always! Please do tell us if you get any response from them after the publishing of this video, as they claimed in the email that you "did not give" them the opportunity to review it beforehand. Not that I think you should have. They would just claim that those employees were at fault, and that they have been let go. These people deserve to have their faces shown publicly(even though I know this video will be blurred on YouTube). Man, I wish you could send this version to their mothers :D

Simona Popa

Such pieces of shit.. My heart breaks for the lady that is already hurting and now has to plead with these low-lifes!

Pradeep Palat

Please let us know when the non-patreon version of this is posted - I have several family members and friends who need to see this, but I definitely want to respect not spreading this version around! Great work as usual.

Steve Jones

As always β€˜Keep β€˜er lit’ Jim. Love your work. Thanks.

Seamus McGill

Thank you again Jim for everything that you do!!! Much love and hugs!

Tabitha Littlepaws Cobalt

Great job as always. I particularly enjoyed their "legal" response and hope they enjoy your video when it publishes.

MJ

Thieves.

Adam Foreman

Utter bastards. Thank you for all you do in stopping these criminals. Have you ever considered (if indeed it is possible) accessing their systems and amending their scripts?

Steve Thompson

I got caught in this scam in the US. I bought an item at Menards and got a free gift just for sending in a coupon. The fine print said that I would have to cancel or I would get a new gift every month at inflated prices. I noticed it on my credit card and acted immediately and cancelled the scam. lesson learned.

Walt Woody Bandstra

Omg this is so hard to listen to. I was in tears listening to the 81 year old lady that was about to cry when she kept telling him she didn’t want it and all I could think about is other elderly people that they do this to. How can people be so heartless. Well thank God for you Jim to try and help the elderly and everyone else from being scammed. This is a very awful scam and I want to thank you so much for exposing this company. I knew this was going to be nothing less than superb. Again thank you so very much β€οΈπŸ’œπŸ«ΆπŸΎ

Stephanie Humphries

Think of how much good could be done in the world with this energy that is currently dedicated to scamming :(

Reagan

Thank you for providing this information. I’ve seen it happen before. Keep up the fight!!!
