This guy has millions of views so I'm sure a few of you have seen this, but I just came across it and wanted to share some sweet justice that this guy handed out:



I don't think we've ever seen such a detailed expose on the operations of a large scam calling operation.

He handed his footage over to the BBC and the lead guy ended up busted. The saddest part is the recordings he obtained of the victims of the scam calls, and the BBC Panorama programme on this is also worth watching for that.

I don't even know how what this guy did is possible lol, but I'm glad he ain't on the wrong side. It's a shame this is what was needed for the Indian police to act.

YouTube scambaiter Jim Browning's video featured on BBC, BBC launched investigation, got an Indian scammer call center owner arrested

YouTube has a scambaiter named Jim Browning. A scambaiter is a person who calls up phone numbers of known scam call centers to waste their time so they don't get a chance to get in touch with their targets. Well, Jim Browning managed to get access to a scam call center's IP camera system and...

Ahh should've searched. Shame it didn't get more traction haha

"Jim Browning" is great, yeah. I've gone down a big rabbit hole of these reverse-scammers before, lol. Haven't checked in on it much lately, though. This one looks good.
