So this is real? I always presumed the person he's talking to in these videos was just a friend/colleague playing the part. Some of the stuff he does to them seems like it would violate international hacking laws or something.
There are no "international hacking laws". That's why all these scammers operate with impunity.
I meant it would violate the laws in the victim's country. There are certainly laws against installing malware on someone else's machine in lots of countries.
