The Scamcast with Kitboga Kitboga

Everyone has gotten a phone call from a scammer at one point or another. I found the perfect way to mess with scammers not only to get revenge, but to make them angry too!

In this episode, I play Richard, who, despite his older age, is a successful business tycoon and investor who has a very busy day of listening to some interesting investment opportunities ahead. When scammers accidentally transfer too much money to me and demand it be sent back, I ask them to help do my job so I can get their money back to them and save theirs. Things of course didn’t really go their way and they weren’t too happy about it!

In this episode, I play an old grandma named Tabitha, and I'm on the phone with scammers claiming to be from Norton Antivirus. They say that I’ve been automatically charged for antivirus software and they can refund me that money by remotely connecting to my computer. The remote connection software is usually safe, but in the hands of scammers, it becomes a dangerous tool they can use to capture your information and lock you out of your computer when things don’t go their way. I let them connect to my virtual machine to try and scam me, but things start to heat up a little bit in the kitchen when grandma starts popping enough popcorn to fill an Olympic sized swimming pool for charity.

This is Part Two of "They Ransomed My Grandson". In this episode, I play Richard who is currently on the phone with scammers pretending to be from Comcast and now the FTC. They’ve promised to help get my grandson out of some legal trouble by calling in a personal favor to the Attorney General of NYC…all in exchange for some gift cards. Lets see just how far these scammers are willing to go to get their money.

In this episode, I play Richard who is on the phone with scammers claiming to work for Comcast. They say that a recent outage has knocked out some of my internet services and to get them working again, I need to let them connect to my computer. Of course, I went along with their script and let them connect to my PC, only to have them send me too much money as part of their refund…or so they said. They called me many times over multiple days to try and get that money back, but things took an interesting turn when they got desperate and decided to ransom my grandson for thousands of dollars instead.

In this episode, I play Richard Johnson, an old grandpa on the phone with scammers who are pretending to be working as federal DEA agents investigating crimes connected to my SSN. What they’re really doing is phishing for my personal information and trying to get me to send them money to clear my name. Things start to get a little bit wild when this scammer demands I go to Target to buy gift cards…

Call Synopsis: SSA Scam - Officer Charles Williams explains that there are illegal actions filed under Richard Johnson’s (Edmund) name for fraudulent activities and there is an arrest warrant out for him. There was a Toyota Corolla found in southern Texas with drugs inside, 10 bank accounts, and 15 credit cards opened using his SSN to launder money.  They know Richard is innocent and his SSN has been compromised and are going to guide him through the steps to secure his assets without having to go through the process of freezing his bank accounts. The call is transferred to DEA Officer Ryan who proceeds to rush Richard to the bank to withdraw his money to purchase gift cards which they will exchange for a cashier's check he can deposit once he gets his new SSN tomorrow. Richard takes a while to get to the bank, exceeding speed limits and jamming out to some sick country bops. Once he gets to the bank, he goes through the drive thru to get his money and then proceeds directly into the neighboring McDonalds drive thru, all while Officer Ryan is urgently trying to get him to go to Target to buy gift cards with the withdrawn money. While at McDs, they forget the straw to his nacho smoothie.
When Richard finally arrives at Target, he sits in the Target parking lot for a while and eats his food, getting a brain freeze and spilling the frozen nacho smoothie all over himself thanks to no straw. He battles a windstorm getting inside the store. He has trouble finding the gift card section so after taking a detour to get some straws, he asks a Target employee (Nevaeh voice) and lets it slip that he's buying cards for the government. She shows him where the cards are before walking away. Officer Ryan pleads with Richard to get Target gift cards, but he doesn’t understand because technically they’re all Target gift cards since they’re sold at Target. Once he figures out the right ones, Richard starts to be paged over the loudspeakers to come to the front desk since Nevaeh alerted someone to the situation. He asks what to do and is told by an increasingly frustrated Ryan to go through the self checkout and purchase the gift cards. Once he does, he sees the store security guard (Jebidiah) and assumes that he and the DEA are working together. The store security guard stops him, talks to Officer Ryan and offers to help with the investigation. Richard suddenly makes a break for it and Officer Ryan hangs up. Richard calls back from a store bathroom stall where he drops one card in the toilet. The Security officer busts in, detains Richard, and jumps on the call where Ryan tries to get him to read the gift card numbers. After getting frustrated, Ryan tells the security officer to take Richard to the station and hangs up. The security officer calls back and Ryan angrily cusses him out.

This is Part 2 when a scammer tries to "save" my job while I go to get him Apple gift cards.  He tries to help Kelly (me) by calling her coworkers and doing everything her boss has asked so she doesn’t get fired.

Call Synopsis: Nevaeh (Kelly Blubock) calls Geek Squad customer service for a Norton antivirus email. Kelly opts to cancel the $369 (nice) antivirus. Grace connects to her computer before transferring her to billing manager Jack. Kelly is working from home (HR) and must call employees and give them the quarterly TPS report. Jack shows her their official business bank (the Chase Business Bank Demo) and then has Kelly log into her bank so he can “merge the banks” and make the transfer. While this is going on, she works her way down the call list and eventually fires Randy. Jack asks her if she has any cryptocurrencies after seeing her bank account and Kelly informs him he gave her ex bf Gabe “like 100 bitcoin” for his birthday back when it was worth very little. Jack shows her the current price and tells her she made the biggest mistake of her life because she would have $4M now.
Kelly’s bad day is about to get worse because she fired the wrong person – instead of Andy, she fired Randy. On top of that, when Jack initiates the transfer of her refund to her bank using cmd prompt (aka “the banking server page of Microsoft”), Kelly mistakenly types $5,000 instead of $500 which is reflected in her bank account, and he tells her she might go to prison. To fix her mistake, she needs to go get Apple gift cards but since she’s working, she convinces Jack (and Mark who ended up helping with calls) to call employees and give them the survey. Jack also needs to fire Andy. Even after a near flawless execution of tasks, Kelly loses her job. Jack says he will call her boss Kevin and explain everything to him. He (and Mark?) calls him and full blown confesses that he’s a scammer and that he threatened Kelly to get her to go get gift cards and begs him to give her the job back.
Jack calls Kelly back and tells her he told Kevin everything, breaking down dramatically and crying in an Oscar-worthy performance. For making such a noble sacrifice and lying for the first time in his life, Kelly needs to give him the cards. Kevin decides to suspend Kelly with no pay instead of firing her and Kelly thanks Jack for talking to him, telling him that she will give him the cards once the whole job thing is figured out. Jack threatens to call Kevin back and tell him that he lied and Kelly was doing this for money so she’ll lose her job again, but she promises to get him the cards, leaving things in limbo.
