Of course it's not just India. I keep sending money to some prince in Nigeria.

This french scammer really boosted my confidence as french learner, now i can get scammed in 3 languages

I'm French She sounds so professional and she has a French accent not a northern African accent. Anyone who doesn't know much about computer would get scammed by her

It’s so weird how he sounded part Ukrainian, part Aussie, and part plugging his nose.

"Around 5 percent of them WON'T be from India" That's not exactly a good thing for India

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if this guy had a world map pinning all scam operations around the world on his bedroom wall

As someone living in India, it does really get tiring to get so many calls from scammers. I just cut the phone without even saying anything when I get a scam call, can't deal with all that bullshit

Scammer : " Hi sir, how can i help you? " Jim : " Hi, this is JimBrowning and you have chosen death. "

I love how Jim acts all naive and frail when he calls then rips them apart like a champ lol.

"before we begin, lets run the scam, i mean scan"

“Not all scammers are from India, just 95%.” Me: 🤨

Her foreign accent in French is much more subtle than the Indian one in English

... "I couldn't tell ya, I'm not good with computers" LOL - I love when Jim says that.

I like how jim makes them drop their guard by acting computer-illiterate, then tells them their name, their address, their lunch, and their bathroom cycle.

8:47 "I'm not great with computers ... I know very little I'm afraid." *casually pulls out Wireshark*

I think a big reason why not as many are from other countries is because most first world countries dont take scam centers like this, and crack down as soon as they pop up. In India it depends on the District, in some they act as fast, but in others they dont care at all.

When I lived in France I had a scammer try to call me about my computer. He became very frustrated when I pretended I couldn’t speak French well and he hung up on me.

I thought my French had improved, but then I realized that I had memorized the scammers' script.

As a Ukrainian I feel extremely embarassed that this kind of trash people exist here... Wish more of our people could make money the fair way

Jim: "I dunno I'm not great with computers". Many a scammer has wished that were true lol.

"Not all scammers are from India" "5% are from alsewhere" Me: Di-did Jim just scam me?

I worked as a tech support in the Philippines. And it was so hard to prove that we are just there to help. I cant blame them tho.

"ah-huh" gives away Ukrainian style of speech

""Not all of them, just 95% of them are Indians!" lmao

Scammer: *breathes Jim: _I see you've chosen death._

“Ok, before we begin, let’s run the scam- I- I mean scan”

Jim, this old lady loves your soothing voice, and accent...many thanks for what you are doing to expose these creeps! Wish I had your knowledge of computers! Much love..

I’ve always hated the remote access feature. The only time I’ve ever allowed it to happen was during a specific exam for college during this pandemic, that the exam proctor had to input his own login credentials to the exam site. That’s the only time I ever accept it, because I know they’re not installing something on my computer or taking information. Every other time I’m asked to give remote access, I decline and demand they just tell me what they’re looking for, and proceed from there.

I remember when I was 8, I got one of those pop-ups and freaked out, got my older brother who just said casually; "Yeah, that's a scam." And I've never fallen for one since.

That Ukrainian guy getting distracted from the scam to excitedly explain how you can view a webpage's source code made me surprisingly sad.

"Not all tech scammers are in India!" -has two examples from two years of work

Good content mate, keep it up! That was a nice try pronouncing Ивано-Франковск :D

"I know very little about computers" "Ehrm so you were looking at the source code?"

True enough, some are from the USA. The "Your car is out of warranty" guys come to mind.

WTF the french speaker would convince anyone💀💀💀💀 Her voice is so soothing! Sadly, she is involved in the scam

Thank you so much I'm from India and your title is true. You are saving India's reputation. Love from India. You are technical world Jesus.

That Ukranian dude is way too nice for his line of work. Makes me think he himself was scammed to accept that job.

JIM BROWNING YOU MADE BBC NEWS THIS MORNING, THEY PLAYED ONE OF YOUR CLIPS....

One year from now when I first watched this I didn't understand anything at all at the first one in French and now that the vid it's back I'm glad to watch it again to understand clearly how some trash sounds. These are lifeless people and I don't just understand it but I realize also that the scammer it's not French accent, this is African French-speaking, maybe Morocco, Algeria or Tunisia. Big respect and huge love Jimm ! Keep up and never stop being wonderfully amazing!

I'm glad you offer a non-blurred version!

as a Ukrainian i recognised his accent instantly.

Indian scammer: *DON'T TOUCH YOUR MOUZ!* Ukranian scammer: "Just click the red X if you want to end our session."

I love this channel. Thank you for helping victims of deceit! You are awesome 👌

Its interesting as i am watching your video now, I received a scammed call from the court telling I have a summon and I need to call back and talk to the officer! I am from South Sea Asia and scammers are everywhere!!! Thanks Jim for the good work, educate general public like me about how scammers work!

Scammer: *breathes* Jim: That’s some nice air you’re breathing

I would love to see what happens when the victim has Linux installed

An old "friend" tried to scam me a few days ago. I realised in time though, how can I get Jim's help to find out exactly how many people are involved?

“Uhh ohh” and “aha”(«ага» aga) is Russian/Ukrainian “ok”(and maybe other Slav Lang)

When I was 18 I fell for one of these tech support scams and took up 40 min of the technicians time before he told me the price and I said "oh, I can't pay that, I don't have any money" he was so pissed off, he swore at me and hung up. 🤣🤣

You mean 5% aren't from India , that shows 95% are. Sad.

What's really interesting about the French one is that even though the scam is exactly the same, of course, the way it's delivered seems so much more believable than the overexcited and easily angered scammers in India. Maybe they could learn a few things (not that I'm suggesting they should). The Ukrainian guy is also not bad, buttering you up with some real, albeit very basic, tech advice. Most of the scammers don't bother 🤷‍♂️

Jim: not all scammers are from India My ears: a blessing from the lord!

Jim : not all scammers are from India Me : well that's good then Jim : only 95% are from India Me : it's India then

The difference in French is that the scammers speak perfect French with a typical French accent unlike in English where the scammers have thick Indian accents.

Lmfao I'm a Tunisian and I can see how funny it is that you zoomed so hard to get to it 😂

Thank you for the awareness

For the French case, it's rather surprising, the scammer has a perfect French accent. Rarely, even large french companies with call centers in Tunisia have staff who speak French as well.

10:32 haha busted Jim 😂 I'm pretty sure there's a lot of non-English language phone scams happening in different countries that we don't know about. Thanks for the video Jim

French is such a beautiful language. Although she was scamming yet I throughly enjoyed hearing her speaking. Sad

Good ol' wireshark. Fantastic tool for seeing what's going to and from where on your computer

I just get a call from a Scammer 5 min ago and I think they begin to be crazy :p I'm french native speaker (from belgium) but I can also speak dutch, english and I begin to learn spanish. First time I get a call in english and I pretended to not be able to speak english so I said "je ne comprend pas, désolé,..." in french. The scammer had an indian accent? Then 2 weeks later I got a call from a french speaker scammer ( I saw +33 number on my landline) and a woman that spoke french but with an accent from morroco or tunisia. I answered her in dutch. After 20 sec, she cutted the line. Then some days later I got a call from +597 number and it was in dutch. In belgium we speak dutch and i can recognize the dutch accent from belgium or the netherland but it was different here, +597 is Suriname. I spoke a little bit in spanish and again, line cutted and just 5 min ago, a call from a +34.... Could it be possible that many scammer all around the world work together and send data to others depending the language of their victim ?

lmfao that Ukrainian guy seemed like an actual technician of sorts that decided to start scamming. He isn't just going off the script

Thanks. That was interesting!

I'm Indian. And the first time ever I went abroad was to France when I was around 20 years old. My laptop got hacked, and frankly speaking, I was so scared... I didn't even know remote access to computer is possible, let alone that they can delete all my files. I tried to negotiate the price they were asking in whatever broken French I could, pleading that as a student who had just moved to a new country, I seriously did not have that kind of money. The "sweet lady" agreed, and I was almost paying the amount. For some reason, by card couldn't get through, I guess because it wasn't a Euro card? But at the end of almost 3 hours on the phone, speaking in a foreign language, about technology, all the shaking that I was going through, and the card not getting through... I broke down and just slammed the laptop shut. Cried for the whole day & finally opened it the next day helplessly at University. And guess what?? My laptop was fine!!! When I narrated the whole thing to my classmates, that's when they explained the whole situation. So stressful! I wish I knew such videos existed on KZfaq back then.

This dude needs to change his voice when calling scammers - these scammers are bound to recognise his voice someday

Jim Browning dropped a new post. Yahoo! I got off the freeway and parked to watch it.

"im not great with computers" his confident voice is a dead giveaway

I just love Jim Browning's Narrations.

Not all scammers are from India - only 95% are.

Jim: Not all tech scammers are in India Also Jim: %95 of tech scammers are in India

Gotta love your actual videos rather than that 1 youtube channel that does fake call interactions with more than likely the same dude or same of the few.

"And in over 60 cases I have recorded, only around 5%..." Me: -Oh that's actually quite low, if only 5% are from india, then there must be quite a lot of misrepresentation or bias righ-- _"WON'T be from India"_ Oh.

"Your computer was infected, please call...." Me: *CTRL + W*

I don't know if that French speaking lady is scamming me or seducing me. Oui, take my money, mon chéri.

you're like a soldier trying to identify and pretend to be an enemy.

"I'm not great with computers. Someone else put all of this on there for me." I love it. Y play the part so well of being the general public not knowing enough about this stuff. But thanks to you, I'll never be caught in their lies again. And with $900 removed from my credit card before the bank put a block on it fo suspicious activity.🤗

Jim: Still has source open Scammer: Confused and starts to sweat

The scammer from Tunisia had barely any accent and spoke nearly like a native French.

Man I respect you a lot. And I want there to be many people like you who bust these bastard scammers. The world needs white hats. Thank you. :) From India.

"That's very good. Which means this is wrong, ok?" I see, it's good and bad at the same time.

"not all from india" "95 percent are from india"

Ukrainian guy: is a scammer Me: oh that's quality asmr

I don’t ever think I’ve heard Jim laugh before. This is like Batman in that Mad Love episode

Many UK companies moved their call centres offshore to India, so in fact, we taught them all they needed to know. Our call centres are now coming back onshore due to the backlash of customers not understanding the accent. In our office you have to explain to them the same thing 3 different ways and they still don't get it.

*I trolled a scammer* A while ago somebody called me, but I knew right away that he was a scammer from India. When he asked me for my name i said "Ligma", and he said "what?" Well, y'all know the rest... Best day ever

Jim: "any competent technician would point out that this pop up is a scam" Me: "not necessarily competent, just honest"

I have to admit that this last scammer was much more competent that usual scammers. He actually did have different script than normally and even did teach what means to "inspect" page source. Usually scammers don't want to give this information up. But eventually he went normal scam routine. Good job for spotting this scammer.

At 2:38 when she says: "Ce sont des applications, Installé par DÉFAUT sur Windows Defender", the translation should read: " Installed by DEFAULT", and not installed by ERROR. This word has 2 meanings in french. It was used as Default in this context. Besides this, I love your videos.

I'm actually curious to know what percentage come out of Nigeria.

I love listening to Jim's voice narrating the stories in these videos. Always makes me feel like I'm listening to Liam Neeson talking about his particular set of skills. Scammer catching skills.

3:56 the scammers from Tunisia were smart enough to pick that woman to make the calls, she has barely any foreign french accent. That’s very important because we never take people with heavy accents seriously.

you are a hidden soldier of the internet Jim you deserve a medal for your work 👍

"You have a pirated avast" Like you have prob 100 pirated apps

I'd assume, that in France, most of the scams come from poorer French speaking areas. India has a high amount of tech scammers in English because alot of people speak English there, also the high population.

Happy realization Jim Browning

I was really surprised to hear that woman speaking french-and very much france french it sounded like too. Makes sense that she was from Tunisia though.

French sounds like they’re saying one word, but in many different ways

as a Tunisian, I appreciate your high effort to keep internet safe, keep up my man!

This is gold. I am really considering joining your pjetreon :D

I am scared now, this video just appeard for me right when i was thinking that "why is all these scammers from india". Damn
