Scammers Wanted $400,000 - We Shut Down Their Crypto Empire Instead 

Keep messing with these scammers!

My Saturday morning feels great by eating a bowl of Magic Spoon cereal and watching a brand-new Kitboga video. Speaking of Magic Spoon, has anyone, like Magic Spoon, sponsored your channel, Kit?

Love your work!!! Thank you!! U r the Amazing

Best guy on here - bravo sir

@@superflyvibrations615 Kit should get sponsors. He's so good at fooling the scammers.

Are you a scammer

@@TheCerealArsonist No, I'm a Game Artist / GameDev, I make 'Our Passing Thoughts' on steam.

​@@AaronMetallionthats what a scammer would say... pretty sus Jokes aside, thats really cool dude, i'ma look into ur game, also ur music is awesome and ur cute 👌

Scammer detected 😂

Acting as every Indian is a scammer is the same thing as saying that every German is a Nazi or smth..

If only we had good street policing, too.

This is one of the top moments of this channel that's up there with flirting with drag kitboga and the top freakouts. Can't overemphasize how crazy this episode is!

if only we had decent governments

"corporations are evil, anarchy could never work, strong eat the weak!" meanwhile in reality corporations does policing better and pensions too

Prob 10% for the big guy 😭😭

Yeah their english was scary good It takes a lot of hours of time to not only learn English but learn to speak it in different accents… scary shit

Good accent too😊

And then there's the daunting realization of how even more effective these guys were, and how many poor people fell for their scam...

It's definitely not fully natural

Likely lived in the UK or US, or any other native english speaking country at some point, was impressed

Taking their time is keeping them away from victims And Kit had 2million$ payout off twitch (he s in the top100)

Just think - if he were successful that would be 50k/hour. For that kind of money I would even talk 10 hours if I were a scammer

I remember there was a kit video I watched a few years back where the scammer confessed his undying love to victim Kit haha. "I love you".

All worth it to pull the rug on a bunch of rugpullers.

10 hours is not a huge chunk.........................

Kit has earned milions doing this. His twitch payout alone is 2 million dollars.

@@evolicious it is a huge chunk. wtf are you talking about?

@@vulubalulubalulu hmmm, sources? or are you just talking nonsense.

They sometimes enable scammers.

@@dylanaruto20they *are* the scammers

@@thekinonaut Yeah

@@thekinonaut yes, paying taxes is the biggest scam

They bring income into the countries so that’s why they don’t take it seriously… that’s the fucked up world we live in

They cynically press sentimental buttons such as, "I am like your son" "I am your grandson."

Exactly. They could go into politics!

It goes beyond scammers too...

Even their English was pretty good compared to those other scammers with a heavy Indian accent.

Sounds like politicians

exactly

Just remember, it is in Kraken's own best interest to do these public stunts. Crypto platforms are facing the ongoing strong possibility of continuing "restrictive" legislation. One method that companies successfully have used in the past is self-regulation. This is like self-regulation foreplay. Kraken wants to appear on the side of victims, not as the ambivalent facilitators of illegal activity.

It’s just PR. They have horrible reviews a really bad reputation

@@Catofminerva exactly. it's almost free PR. hopefully KitBoga got some money for this tho

@@Catofminerva oh... thats sad to hear :/ at least the helped kit here

@@Catofminerva no they don't, they are a big and respected player in the crypto industry.

@@anon7891 So big they couldnt even honor my GDPR request for data lookup

Make them scream long, loud and painfully every time they call you. Tears is the goal. Go get 'em.

Do they still use TTY to scam? When I was a callcentersman that was a huge problem

maybe its a dumb question but, what are you to do? are you instructed to alert the customer that they’re being scammed? do you freeze the account? or are you told to not do anything and give the support asked?

It sucks when someone calls in and you have to talk them down from paying a scammer. One call with an elderly man reached 3 hours because he was absolutely convinced that he owed some fake law firm in NYC $8000. Eventually convinced him to at least wait until he spoke with his accountant before sending any money. Hope he (and his poor accountant) are doing okay now.

And people tell me to go cashless economy

I am surprised that more companies don’t go after these scammers. I’m sure there is way more they could be doing, but of course that will eat into their margins.

You mean "global megacorp" you've been trained to hate for some reason because they make money actually is good?!?! Blaspheme

Yep, unfortunately i lost $5k to a very smart crypto scam, never again.

@@djamesvideography what was it?

@@nubidubi23 and what is it about it that makes him smart?

Condolences to your friend, I hope she had/has family who were able to help her out financially after losing all her money 😪

@@nubidubi23 a smart contract scam, you deposit crypto into an account that generates interest, you can remove your rewards every week, they lure you into adding more then they take all your money and tell you to put in a huge sum to get your money back.

Do they still use fake European sounding names when they are trying to scam another Indian?

That's the grind. We don't have to live in a world of haves and have nots. Rise up gamers and sisters!

@@TheModdedwarfare3 Wish we could do something about it. Like really those guys just bribe the cops so we can't even get them arrested

No sensible person blames Indians collectively. It is a shame, but the shame isn't YOURS. Love from your Cousins in New Zealand.

It's not your fault ❤

Than... 🤦🏻‍♀️ 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🙄

He's also bloody expensive xD

I'm at the point now that even if I get connected with what is probably a legitimate Indian support person, I hang up and try again. Sorry, not sorry.

They needed some good press after their CEO is under investigation by the FBI (and their litany of legal / culture issues)

You got a little something on your nose.

@@michaelvallin55 troll

it shows indeed and I loveeee it! :D much easier to follow!

@@michaelvallin55Oh no! Passionate, appreciative fans! Such losers amirite? Low EQ clown.

​@@michaelvallin55 is it the smell of Kit's brilliance? Or maybe it's a piece of the greatness of this video?

Is it? To me, their partnership only means I got to watch a commercial, which I really didn't need at all.

@@johnybalohnytrue but it gives more opportunities for scammers to get screwed. No one would expect this. But yes they obviously do it for marketing reasons.

Crypto is also a scam, but just for middle aged 'tech' bros who have fear of missing out.

@@johnybalohny I imagine that this video is part of the partnership and I'm sure Kit will get round to posting videos of how it's all played out on stream over the last few weeks and how Kraken's involvment has resulted in some great content.

​@@johnybalohnydon't be cheap get yt premium family plan worth it just not to have ads no joke 😂

Probably the best/smoothest advertising opportunity too lol

yeah, then they'll attract more customers, to trade against and rip off. The real criminals are the banks and exchanges 😁

Notice how they never said what happens with the bitcoin, just that the accounts get locked/shutdown. Never mentions that people get their money back. My cynical side says they are keeping it internally

kraken had to pay $30,000,000 to the SEC for securities fraud, they're just as scummy as those call centers, just on a larger scale

Sadly, I believe that some are working in various US companies in the IT department and they are sending co workers information home to others so they can scam 🤔

death penalties after the first time.

I'm all for mercenaries going in .

@@MeshuggahDave. yuh

@@MeshuggahDave. ok Mr. Rule of Thumb

@@MeshuggahDave. No, the sad reality is many of these individuals have very difficult life circumstances that have led to this being their best available option, Its a system failure as much as an individual crime. They deserve to be punished yes but also be shown compassion and mercy.

Lol that's why they're scammers

Yep, makes about as much sense as when they set the bank account balances to zero and pretend they stole it all, then tell the victim to go and buy gift cards if they want their money back.

I used btc so much for gambling in like price were 400-800$. Wallets back then are just wallet, if you phone died or stolen you lose everything. Nowaday wallet providers are also marketplace and bank, which is way more safer for my money but yeah,we lost anominity. Still better than Government.

@@ABCNDi yep, I was buying BTC when it was $40/coin. I used a local wallet with the whole chain downloaded. Probably should have kept some lol

@@bobbym6130 Oh man... i have like 20k in 2017-8 , i thought about buying cards and mining but with fire hazard and noise reasons, i did not. Then, i thought maybe i just hold. My mom is not interests and i was an shortsighted idiot that dont believe in saving money . So, i used the money on hooker and coke mostly. Then it went up to lik 8k. I regret it but whatever, small balls. Then in 2019, i read about this virus in reddit and media are blaming China heavily for no reason and China just banned Crypto Mining. I live beside China. So, i thought hey, it might be good time for bitcoin. It was like 4-7k back then. I bought some and i sold it in first month of profit. 🙂 Yeah fuck me. Fuck me hard.

Crypto was never supposed to be anonymous. It was always planned as being pseudonymous. The whole idea of a blockchain like bitcoin has wouldn't even make sense if it would be anonymous.

@@ABCNDi 800$ cash are better then money in those digital wallets, if only because there are very little ways to track how they are spend. Ergo, Government, who prints said bills, is better than your wallets ever were.

I misread that as "getting his justin desserts" and now I feel bad about myself

@@TrouvatkiDePercusion you are Justin time with this pun.

@@nitehawk86 GODDAMMIT

I would like to emphasise how awesome Nick's beard is. Look at him! It's like he ordered all the glorious silver to leave his head alone and crown his magnificent facsimile of an Ancient Greek philopher's beard!

Yes. Love the explanations peppered throughout.

" just go to your bank but don't tell them what you want the money for" or even better " go to target and get 6000.00 in gift cards and give me the numbers on them"...this is the " IRS" and you will be arrested if you do not send gift cards immediately... The police are on their way Right Now..........

Crackameba can help you out

So great to hear that Kit's videos are training bankers on how to better protect their customers from scam. The internet and RU-vid actually being a force for good! Amazing!

Not like those other scammers. Those guys were chill.

@@sbedom0 .

Thanks dude!

PG - another of my favourites. Learning a lot from your channel as well

I'm interested by the "how" and entertained by the content, but I can't help thinking that the scammers are being educated as to "Red flags" to look for in this video - which might help the barstewards wriggle free.

​@@KitbogaShow Thanks bro for what you do,, seeing you without sunglasses is kinda like seeing Clark Kent behind the Legend but Clark put a human face on Superman and in the same way,, you show a more sensitive and expressive guy behind the relentless hunter of scammers whose sunglassed face wearing a gray haired wig has become nearly iconic...👍💯

Especially because they mainly seem to prey on the elderly, many of whom are living on a fixed income and really need every penny they have.

Psychics, christian tighing, price gouging are bad also and much more common.

I would like the comment but I think you deserve the 69 😂😎

It's when he goes ultra instinct 😂

WMANS

Yeah, it takes a lot of time and effort to do what he is doing.

What are u even saying

There was an awesome interaction between Kraken and the SEC too when they had to pay 30 million over securities fraud. Great company to promote on a "scambaiting" channel for sure!

I know, his American accent was great.

​@@mattjamison484are you talking about justin?

These scammers are skilled on systems. I wonder if they are recruited from their local universities. My father was scammed with vitamins from scammers in Miami. They are everywhere.

I tot British.. Their ex master ​@@mattjamison484

Unfortunately WU doesn't care, as long as they're getting paid. They're a pretty shady company...

They won't, it is their bigger source of income too 😂

Working myself in this field from a EU country. Whenever we see Western Union we instantly see it as an high risk. Their validation and security is beyond horrible.

Western Union is corrupt it will never happen.

Most scammers don't even use Western Union anymore, it takes to much time and is traceable. Plus WU takes a cut of every transfer. They pretty much all use Bitcoin now.

I’m still waiting to see how he stops the other scammer of Kraken lol.

haha i didn't even think about that. imagine he just reflexively starts messing with him and then is like "oh wait, this is the good guy"

Funny that the blackrock CEO just called it an international asset. I've seen a lot worse currency management from legit countries over the last few years

That's kinda on you and your family for not keeping in touch and taking care of your elderly relatives. The elderly who don't have an involved support system in their life are the perfect victims.

​@@jayv7006that's uncalled for. I know a gen X guy whose mother moved in with him. A scammer convinced her that her family was stealing her money. She withdrew and became suspicious of her family until after she was scammed. Unless you completely cut people off from using technology then you don't completely remove the possibility of them being scammed, and that can be cruel.

Also, they often tell them not to talk to their family and will use their love of their family against them. You blaming the family of the victim doesn't help.

@@GrandmasterofWin Nope, that's a cop out excuse. You communicate with your elder relatives and build a rapport based on respect and trust with them so they know to contact you or someone else in the family if someone tries to do business or take payments from them over the phone. And if they are not in their right mind then you make arrangements for power of attorney. It's that simple.

​@@jayv7006ok Mr. Perfect, no one asked nor needs your notions of guilt and accountability, thanks

Doubt it just makes them find new ways

The Kraken CEO is under investigation by the FBI and Kraken was fined 30 million by the SEC over securities fraud. I'm sure they love justice.
