Jim Browning (not his real name) has over the past decade earned 4.3 million followers on YouTube and a reputation as the “godfather of scambaiting,” a niche field that has grown alongside the activity it aims to disrupt.
Scambaiters like Kitboga, who started by wasting scammers’ time and humiliating them, are now creating tools to protect potential victims and collaborating with law enforcement to dismantle major operations.
In this episode of Bloomberg Investigates, we witness how Jim Browning exposes a significant crypto scam in Dubai, facilitated by an insider, a private investigator, and a victim.
