Inside a Tax Scam

At this point, Jim isn't even a person. He's the personification of internet justice.

The poor lady with cancer still getting abused by scammers genuinely broke my heart. Monsters.

I literally cried when the lady talked about her cancer and how she’s not doing well in her retirement. Just heartbreaking and thank you Jim and every other scambaiter.

I got scammed out of my whole paycheck when I was 21. They are so heartless and convincing. I was so sad and if it wasn’t for my family, honestly I probably would’ve ended my life. They don’t understand how devastating this is to some people

The scamming of that woman is just absolutely awful. Cancer treatment can often cause congnitive dysfunction. The fact they almost succeeded is horrible. Good on you Jim Browning for stopping it and shutting down that call centre! I hope that your name haunts every single one of those scammers minds.

'I was diagnosed with cancer, so my retirement didn't start well....I know its not your fault but its worse now' What a pure person, i just hope she recovered

the scammer talking to the lady with cancer sounds like he's genuinely wrestling with guilt over what he's about to do at first, and that the break he had to take to "discuss" the issue may have been to panic and decide what to do. I almost feel sorry for him because he knows what he is doing is wrong, but the moral thing would be not to even be doing this in the first place. Poor Mrs. Evans, I cried listening to her talk about her situation and how bad her retirement has been so far. I hope she gets well soon and has a long and very happy retirement 😭

I wish more people, especially the elderly, would understand that they would never be contacted by phone for such matters.

We were sadly too late and found out after he passed my stroke survivor uncle had given thousands to scams. I hate these people so much, they took a man who had almost nothing and did their best to bleed him dry. Thank you for your work sir

Thanks again Jim, another one to save people. My father had a stroke and was unfortunately left vulnerable and ended up getting scammed £1,000.00 however have been showing him your videos to make him more aware.

Thank you, Jim, for saving her. My heart was breaking. It was also interesting to hear that scammer sound genuinely distressed for scamming her but did it anyway for "half price". What a scumbag. You could feel him having his doubts but did it anyway. Shameful.

I'm 74, have dementia, live alone, no family, in the US, and watch these type videos to try to protect myself. But I have to admit it depresses me about my future security to know these people are stalking people like myself. I never answer the phone unless my caller id identifies the source as someone I already know. I don't have much income and I can't afford to lose any. I have to be frugal as it is. My computer was a gift to me and it's pretty old.

"And after today, I know it's not your fault, but it's worse now...". This brought tears to my eyes. But also a deep, burning anger. Thanks Jim for working to stop people like this and their scams.

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing" - Edmund Burke. Thanks so much for doing everything in your power to save people from scams Jim. Keep hitting these scamming parasites where it hurts!

I’ve been receiving 6-7 times daily from “Lisa - from the IRS”. It is so annoying! I'm so glad that someone is finally doing something to stop these parasites from harassing people. Thank you Mr. Jim Brown 😘

I heard one of these calls where the victim was also ill and they used them admitting that very fact to pressure them even more by saying that if they don't pay their back taxes, they won't be eligible for NHS coverage either. That's how despicable these people are. Luckily, someone like Jim was listening in and called this person while they were on the phone with the scammer and told them what was happening. If I recall correctly, Jim has done this in the past too.

That woman in the beginning is amazing, what a woman. Actually speaks the mind of EVERYBODY in the UK and abroad who else to deal with these lowlife scammers... and to those in India who are stereotyped by others and thusly brought down by these folk; I humbly sympathise with you. These scammers bring shame to everybody they interact with, and hopefully they will be brought to justice or seek an honest way of living.

I felt like crying when that poor woman told the scammers she had cancer. It's so good to hear Jim talking to her. We all need to tell all our aged relatives about the scams.

I'm Indian and this brings tears to my eyes. Hearing the scared voices of innocent scam victims hurts deep while the scammers enjoy shamelessly

I wish there was an extra option where we pay Jim to make these scammers life a living hell. I feel so bad for the victims 😢
