I don't know why these young people have got into this. There's plenty of opportunity to get a job in India today, if you can even read and write just a bit of English.
My head hangs in shame. :(
Why? Just because the criminal could be from India and you’re from there too? There is no need for shame; you are not responsible for the actions of everyone from your country.
Stuff like this really should be a reminder of the dark history imposed by some nations over others that just stunted their growth during the most important time of human history.
In another video of his[1], a scammer decide to talk and share some really interesting facts:
- He gets a monthly salary of 400$. And cents for each scam, even if the scam was of much greater sum (His example: 100$ for 20K$).
- Most of the money goes to his bosses and the owner of the call center.
- He actively thinking about turning them in. But since knowing English is all he can do... he won't find another job (He didn't explain, but maybe because, IT require real tech knowledge)
After hearing that, I became a little bit more sympathetic towards them. They know about their wrongdoing, but keep doing it because of the economic pressure. So, While I agree we have to stop scammers.. I wish we could target the triggers who caused the humans to go there, and not the humans who got dragged into it.

Sympathy? Yeah, no.
Watch some of Kitboga vids and listen to these guys laugh while they fuck over old people.
And install malware that lets them take over the victim's computer so they can remotely steal from them over and over.
All while the local authorities (and up) don't lift a finger.
