A confidence trick (synonyms include confidence game, confidence scheme, scam and stratagem) is an attempt to defraud a person or group after first gaining their confidence, used in the classical sense of trust. Confidence tricks exploit characteristics of the human psyche such as dishonesty, honesty, vanity, compassion, credulity, irresponsibility, naïveté and greed.
The perpetrator of a confidence trick (or "con trick") is often referred to as a confidence (or "con") man, con-artist, or a "grifter". The first known usage of the term "confidence man" in English was in 1849 by the New York City press, during the trial of William Thompson. Thompson chatted with strangers until he asked if they had the confidence to lend him their watches, whereupon he would walk off with the watch. He was captured when a victim recognized him on the street.
A confidence trick is also known as a con game, a con, a scam, a grift, a hustle, a bunko (or bunco), a swindle, a flimflam, a gaffle or a bamboozle. The intended victims are known as "marks", "suckers", or "gulls" (i.e. gullible). When accomplices are employed, they are known as shills.

On Feb 27, 2015 - Sgt. Guerra of VPD received a phone call claiming to be from the IRS. He knew it to be a common scam, so he decided to call the number back and document it. What happened next was completely unexpected. He had this to say: It’s not often that I find myself speechless, but this was one instance that I was a bit tongue tied at what transpired. If you’ve watched the video, you know now that I was able to get a scammer from Pakistan on the phone that was brazen enough to give me step by step details into how their scam works. Several things happened throughout the course of this video that really caught me off guard: 1) The conference call situation. I was not expecting this and I’ve never heard of this happening. 2) I apparently am completely incapable of saying the p...

Insurance fraud is any act committed with the intent to obtain a fraudulent outcome from an insurance process. This may occur when a claimant attempts to obtain some benefit or advantage to which they are not otherwise entitled, or when an insurer knowingly denies some benefit that is due. According to the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation the most common schemes include: Premium Diversion, Fee Churning, Asset Diversion, and Workers Compensation Fraud. The perpetrators in these schemes can be both insurance company employees and claimants.[1] False insurance claims are insurance claims filed with the intent to defraud an insurance provider. Insurance fraud has existed since the beginning of insurance as a commercial enterprise.[2] Fraudulent claims account for a significant por...

Warning: The scammer uses a lot of profanity once he catches on. And yes, I realize there's some spelling errors in the introduction, I don't want to remake the entire video just to rid of that. This afternoon I got a call from a company "ProComSupport247". This corporation is a scam. They call people claiming that there is a virus or other problems with their computer, and they are going to fix it for almost $300 dollars. They take over your computer via a screen sharing service, and will show you things on your computer which aren't problems, but to the uneducated computer user, may seem so. For more information on these scams, you can leave questions in the comments and I'll answer, or you can look at this website: https://blog.malwarebytes.org/tech-support-scams/
This video has sparked an article investigation by former Washington Post reporter Brian Krebs: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2014/11/microsoft-partner-claims-fuel-support-scams/ If the screen is fuzzy, increase the resolution using the little gear located on the right corner of the video frame (minimum 720p to see screen text clearly.) You can also view the video full screen clicking the last square box in the right corner of the video frame. It should be crystal clear audio and video. In this extremely EPIC video, I get a phone call from a technical support scammer claiming I have viruses on my computer! I knew he was going to call, so I set up a test bench computer and recording devices - and then I let the games begin! Grab some popcorn and a drink and settle in for one of the funnie...
"Scammers" Britain is under siege from scammers who are using technology to rob us blind. They might not use a crowbar or wear a balaclava to break into our homes or steal our lives, but scamming is the \"new\" burglary and it is out of control. Increasingly crime in the UK involves some form of cyber criminal and the Government is secretly putting millions of pounds into new specialist cyber cop units to identify, and catch, these 21st century crooks. Scamming now costs the UK economy at least £27 billion a year - and that's just the reported crimes. This film investigates the problem and reveals some of the heart-rending stories of victims who've fallen foul of the scammers. Including a woman who fell for a romance scam which cost her £180,000 and a teenager who committed suicide after ...
I call up a tech support scam and talk to someone who is new to their job. I end up bricking their computer by convincing them to set a Syskey, BIOS, and hard drive password. There are occasional high-pitched beeps in the recording. It sounds like the low battery warning of a smoke detector. These beeps were part of the call, and came from the scammer's end. The scammer in this call seems to be associated with Raheem from Lewis's Tech's live stream on August 20, 2016. Both the high-pitched beeps and Raheem's name were heard In this call. The details of Raheem being promoted to a high-level position at his company and running a domain controller match up. The call recording was edited to make it easier to listen to. I edited: Cuts - cutting out silence and boring parts Level normalizatio...
