Tracking Down a Real Estate Scammer! 

Yes!! BX in the house !! Fellow New Yorker here glad Pleasent Green and you teamed up!! 🥳

page is gone my boy congrats

Good job. I would recommend tweaking your privacy settings on your social media account if possible.

So sorry this has happened to you. Hope they catch that guy impersonating you and throw him under the prison.

plot twist: the person writing this comment is the scammer

Woah love Ur video's

Fr!

I think he was referring to the singing Jim Browning and not you ! LOL!

Yes

Hah, I noticed that reference too! (btw, I'm a big fan of Jim, keep it up ya'll)

Please collab with Ben one day, guys! Much love!

Collab it would be great to see you both together

Wow! Kudos to you for warning him!

Great for you

You a cashier in Home Depot? I used to be one lol punching in Pro Xtra's and all

@@PleasantGreen I tried to stop an older man from buying 4 google play gift cards at a grocery store a few months ago. I noticed him with them at the cash and after intently listening to him for a moment talking to the cashier, I finally heard him ask the cashier where it is on the cards that he has to scratch off the reveal the numbers. Once I heard that I jumped right in and told him I think he might be getting scammed. He said no, they were for his sister in law and she emailed him asking for them…I told I am confident that’s a scam, and he said no he’s sure it’s not and he already thought about that. I asked him if he spoke to her on the phone to confirm and he said “no, she’s in the hospital with cancer, I can’t phone her.” I pleaded with him not to buy the gift cards and told him he had better be absolutely certain they really are for his sister in law, because everything points to this being a scam. He says yes he is absolutely certain. To this day I really think he fell victim to a scammer, but I hope that I am wrong, or hopefully at least after I left I hope maybe he decided against buying the gift cards.

That was amazing. I hope he did his research first

I love that noise too...😊

And the best part is.. It's always Nigeria 😂

@@abhisheksengupta1773 not always.. but about 90% of the time :D

Im always waiting for it and do a little ”got the scammer” shimmy 😂😂😂

Ikr wanna make that my ringtone 😂

Right. My friend from DRC got hacked and the person behind it was a crypto scammer, either way, I tried help him getting his account back and tried use grabify to log their IP but failed either way. Reported the page though. He has a new page of his own now and gave him some advise to avoid phishing.

Its so awful that there are so many greedy people at the very top of these scam operations, taking advantage of the less fortunate people in an otherwise fine and even beautiful country. Honestly the amount of fake gfx artists from Nigeria running amok on Fiverr alone is enough to show someone how out of hand the whole situation over there with scammers is.

Unfortunately these people are good at hiding their tracks

What does 'shine your eyes' mean? Like, take the dirt off the lenses so you can see? Is that a Nigerian phrase?

​@@brightballoon it means be vigilant, be smart.

I was looking for precisely this comment.

nice reference

😹😹😹😂😂😂😂😂

😂 thats sounds like a bad damned night !

I see what you did there...

haha I thought of that after he hung up

🤣🤣🤣

The scammer is definitely not smart, that's for sure. But, just to be accurate, in large buildings it is not uncommon for the comfort conditioning to be maintained by and billed to the building owner, and not reflected on the tenant's electric bill. The owner / management company then sets a rent structure to cover those costs.

Except that's not actually a problem; It does happen. Heating could be gas, or HVAC could be on a separate circuit which is metered separately and paid for by the apartment.

@@user-vn7ce5ig1z exactly. If it’s a central air system then it could be covered by the landlord, just like the central heating system. There is nothing impossible about this.

What about Walmart gift cards? 😂

finally someone who reads terms and conditions!

Zelle is PayPal and fat chance of ever getting a refund back from PayPal I imagine zelle is no different

@@BoskiM Zelle is NOT PayPal. It's created and run by the big banks. PayPal does own and operate Venmo.

Ty for the info.

Yeah, that’s the case in most 3rd world countries. Criminals pay cops to turn a blind eye or bail them out fast without a court hearing or proper prosecution

I think it has to be an international effort because people who got scammed has to go to the police and they should contact the social media companies for IPs and such. Then the US should provide information to Nigeria and if the information is sufficient they can do something. And a lot of scams don't look like they are organized like scams with call centers behind them. And I would also believe bribes too because I can believe any government to be corrupt. But this sounds like a big hit on a country's reputation which would hurt them a lot, be it tourism or trade.

Why'd you spell it with two y's and two w's? That's never the logical spelling or correct spelling of any word in any language that I know of.

That part had me laughing 😂

Yeah I hear the jingle every time I hear someone say, “Nigeria nowadays…kinda like how I hear the “ding” in my head every time I’m watching a movie now and there’s a continuity error…😆

Me too, I even look forward to hearing it but still gets me lol!

It always sounds like he's about to reveal Mexico in Nigeria everytime 😂 😂 Grabs 🌮

When Ben mentions the Grabify link I fully expect to hear "La Tambora" / the drums, meaning it was from someone in Nigeria (like I expect Jim Browning to mention is from anywhere near Kolkata, formerly Calcutta, in eastern India).

LMAOOOO

ROFL

LOL

Nah the guy thousands of miles away in Nigeria is a totally legit seller. I'm sure he wouldn't use fake information and photos from the internet to pretend he has a house. He definitely has a 'real' home that he's selling. 😂🤣🤣

Maybe talk to them in a more bizarre manner?

Hes just making fun of them for acting so dumb but yeah you're right, they will literally watch this video & take physical notes from it lol. "Dont say kindly. Got it."

'Kindly' is actually a common term people use, at least where I'm from. It doesn't mean we are weird or are scammers. If I need someone's help, it's common for me and other people to use the word 'kindly'. I honestly don't know what kind of world you guys live in where it's weird to use that word

Kindly is still commonly used in Canada!

They also say ok a lot after every sentence

Glad u didn’t get scammed!

LMAOO

Was searching for this comment lol!

WHEREEEE

@@Dringer 5:28 he lists 'Jim Browning' as a personal reference in the application. Quite funny.

He gets paid for these videos, silly.

he has 750k wdym? hes really good and deserves everything he has

@@womelet6275 You’re right but he deserves much more

@@thelocksmith4553 Yeah he should be in the millions around 1 - 10 million

@@womelet6275 Absolutely

Underrated? I don't think you know what that word means. He's famous and very highly rated.

Hopefully he gets caught in the end

Exactly. No one should every do that!

He is much better here. National news is nothing now

@@jake.walker.official I agree!!. Basically any tv/cable news is what they are told to say by the 5 companies that own them. Only watch local news. The spin is not valuable information.. something has to change, but I don’t see it.

@@TheRrxing isn't it just one company that owns essentially all of mainstream media

@@Lysergic_ I thought 3

@@TheRrxing I thought you said 4 earlier

😉 Interesting huh 🤣

Apparently not in Nigeria 🤣🤣🤣

It depends on the building. There actually are buildings that include heating and cooling and hot water as part of the basic fees and only make you pay extra for electric.

Keep up the good work PE!

Heyo!

@@PleasantGreen Hi

You guys probably suffer second-most after the victims themselves.

I did it just for you!

@Pleasant Green 😔what about me, senpai?

@@anatolydyatlov3105 senpai doesn't mean love or what you're thinking

@@themasterofmastery4404 thanks, captain obvious. I definitely joined the internet 5min ago kekw

Hope you stay safe man :)

@@Aureus_ Thank you

If watching these vids are your best moments currently, then your life must suck, but I guarantee that my life is considered worse than yours and these vids are nowhere near the best moments of my life lol, I’m homeless and have no money amongst many other things, so you really need to get a better attitude because although most people could consider my life worse, I am living the best one I have because it’s the only one and I’m thankful to God for giving it to me and He is the only one who matters. If you knew God, your best moments would be with Him.

Hope things turn around for you. May this next year be a wonderful one for you.

@@MLGB0Yz lol Ur probs the scammer,we never asked you to reply

Ben has watched a lot of LMG it seems

@@39zack yea just like our sponsor rugabble!

Someone tried that with me. Told me they was gonna mail me the key after i pay😂😂😂

You don’t shop online?

@@atrain_7300 At least with online shopping you have several ways to determine the validity of the product.

Depends. I bought my car via a online auction without physically seeing it. Due to covid situation.

@@GamingHubbb well it wasn't from random dude on the Instagram so that's positive. It's still kinda gamble to do that but hope it turned out good!

You need to watch the latest Jim Browning video. They're starting to recruit locals so accent and grammar isn't an immediate giveaway...

Sadly there are many people who will speak in this way "me and him, him and her". I could go on but it hurts my ears.

Scammers are getting smarter the more their scams are being called out.

👀 scammers basically fear Jim, Kitboga, and Pierogi

Me too ! Lol

I'm from Nigeria 🙂, was does that tell you 🙂? I'm a scammer right 😔, this guys have black listed our country name, Now if I wanna do a business with any American, they block me off immediately 🤦🤦🤦🤦, this is really annoying

@@iamzackjay6748 I am really sorry to hear how this has affected your ability to do legitimate business. Unfortunately the negative sells when it comes to news and that unfairly casts a negative light on people like you. I pray that you can find success with your business. Maybe there should be a RU-vid channel that focuses on the positive businesses in Nigeria?

@@iamzackjay6748 yup. Blame your people. Don’t blame him for exposing them. Strengthen your community.

Thank you so much for the update. I unfortunately can't see the page since he has me blocked but I'm aware that he is very very active in posting, he even has a picture of my dog. I've considered making my page private but it really wouldn't work in my best interest. I know with Pleasant Green's help that page will eventually be taken down.

@@hairomatos4462 I hope your business won't suffer too much.

Everyone's favorite jingle!

@@PleasantGreen True!

@@PleasantGreen Wait how is this possible how did he comment 1 day ago

Not much the police can do on our end other than forward the evidence to the country where the scammers live and hope the police there does their job.

Would you kindly send frank Fontaine money?

Well, most areas in Mars are more close to Scandinavia in terms of temperature... So I would look for Real Estates there that has Central heating instead of an AC. The Dust storms are a mess tho... Hard to clean if it those red dust sticks in your car, I suggest places near a Car Wash. Parking isn't really an issue as of now... Idk how many people will move to Mars, but last time I check, the place still has a lot of free to park venues. I have families live there, and there is this Couscous restaurant that's top notch Good luck in your search, bro

Make sure you insist on a place along one of the Martian Canals so you can enjoy boating on the water that once may have been there.

@@aribantala you crack me up!
