lucky you - it could have been that your PC is used for illegal activity that YOU will be held responsible for, is full of viruses that could infect all your devices and steal all your money from your bank account and have hackers that are attacking your computer also to steal all your money from your bank account - but, good news!, if you buy a few gift cards, all these problems magically go away!

@@jbird4478 Because the scammers have a script they follow to 'prove' that there are issues with the victims PC. They can point at a struggling event in event logs, run pointless command prompt commands, or other means. What matters is that they're all Windows exclusive programs/services. It's essentially like you were tasked to drive a car, you get to location and they give you a truck instead, and you need to look like you're confident and experienced when you've never driven a truck before. How Windows and Linux work is fundamentally different, and troubleshooting or viewing logs is also vastly different on either system.

@Henhen Sings Depends. I know in the US the standard practice for most banks is to cover the fraud/lost money and then investigating. But some banks (usually smaller credit unions) can require a police report, paperwork, etc before they put the money "back" (ie give the client money to cover what they lost) in the account. Also, banks don't *have* to do that. I also think I remember reading somewhere (or hearing somewhere) that (in the US) a victim can't be held responsible to money taken out in their name (ie if your identity is stolen and a debt collector tries to collect on it - you can take them to court). It often doesn't help very much because by the time you report it/realize what happened, the damage is already done to your finances and credit. And most of these laws are for if someone else steals your identity and you were unaware of it/not the one who made the expense/took out the loan/etc, not if you yourself went to the bank, withdrew your own money, and handed it over seemingly willingly.

I imagine people now are using the same small number sites from big companies (Amazon, Facebook, Google/KZfaq/Gmail, etc.) and almost nothing else, and don't need to be installing 50 random untrustworthy programs and browser extensions on their PCs to do all these little things (phones and web-based applications have taken over that role, which is great for security in general), so the attack vectors are vastly diminished.

I think some of them see themselves as legitimate tech support because they don't know any better. They are being scammed, too. These companies prey on the desire people in India have to do real tech support. And to them, they are following scripts that seem like real tech support scripts. I think the scammers themselves are just as fooled as the victims, and it's only the people running the scam business that know it is actually fake.

there are a couple of reasons why I really like watching Jim browning videos. It highlights the following issues : 1. Scamming of unassuming senior citizens 2. The lack of action from the part Indian govt or intervention of other govt on stopping these scammers. But I know that they’re cracking down on money mules now in the us. Thanks to the latest videos of jim. 3. The unemployment rates in India that leads to educated ppl to sought out unscrupulous means to earn a living. 4. The education system in India where you’ve to just learn things by heart. The exams are designed to see how good your memory power is rather than using your knowledge in a more practical way. India has a young population compared to many countries. And imagine using your intelligence and skills to scam old ppl. I wish things would change.

@Aiden Kane I wouldn't hold onto that long, as if Linux/Linux-GNU/Whatever ever gets to be the popular, most used system in any big country, as a rule of malware making is to infect as much people as possible, and it's more likely you'll infect lots when you make a virus tailor-made to exploit whatever OS's being used the most... and add to the fact that there's malware for both Classic MacOS and OSX... this isn't a thing unique to Windows itself. Don't get me wrong, Linux is great as a test-tube open-source environment, and is good for breathing new life to computers that have met an unfortunate fate, as well as having a very customizable desktop environment, but as for the need of an antivirus, it only got away with being touted as virus-free because Linux isn't all that widely used. Besides, you won't really even need much of an antivirus at all on any system if you know what you're doing on the internet. Open-source may be great and all, but at the end of the day, common sense is what matters.
