Catching Money Mules

Jim Browning is the Internet alias of a London-based software engineer and YouTuber from Northern Ireland whose content primarily focuses on scambaiting and exposing scam call centers. Jim’s goal is to catch the scammers.

A software engineer by trade, Browning began looking into scammers after a relative lost money to a technical support scam. He has since carried out various investigative scam baits, in which he infiltrates computer networks run by scammers claiming to be technical support experts or posing as US IRS agents, through the use of remote desktop software and social engineering. Such scams have involved unsolicited calls offering computer services, or websites posing to be reputable companies such as Dell or Microsoft.

The below video goes in-depth on just one of the many scammers he has busted. In this case, he actually gets the scammer to drop the act and talk directly and sincerely with him.

Welcome to the Average Joe Weekly blog. This is basically my place on the web where I can help spread some of the knowledge that I have accumulated over the years. I served 10+ years in the Marine Corps on Active Duty, but that was some 25 years ago.
