Get yourself an online bodyguard and try Guardio free for 7 days! https://guard.io/PleasantGreen
This is a story about me winning a “FREE” iPad. As you can see, it’s not quite that simple. Be careful with Deal Delivery Gurus or anyone else who randomly tells you that you’ve won a free iPad.
I used Privacy.com to set up the virtual card.
This video is one big ad lmao not impressed
Apple makes their Ipods in China for 5 bucks.
Love your work. You are saving a lot of people from being cheated. I know you are very busy but is there any way for me to talk to you
I'm surprised you got anything at all
I blame the Russians.
Although , I can understand your intentions of offering advice on how to protect ourselves against malicious offers and websites YOU should be more transparent about a sponsored video just trying to sell us another monthly subscription, regardless of the legitimacy of the business you are doing the advertising for, you must be extremely clear that the main purpose of the content of the video is to offer a service / product. And at least for me, that is no right for your audience.
i got this scam a while ago. i responded to the message and didn’t even get an answer. Scammers gotta be more persistent
Question: “beats airpods by kim kardashian†cost $199.98 USD and they are the same $9.99 product that you received- would you call that a scam or great marketing? Btw I am in no way condoning any scam or advertising just curious how you or your audience feels. Also congratulations on 1million subs Ben 🙂
I remember the “Free iPod†ads back in the 2000s where you not only had to support and refer people to sites but you’d also get a lot of ad/spyware in the process.
I had got the same scam but it was for a free iphone 14 pro from tmobile I paid the i$ shipping and then look a my credit card charges and they charged me 19.99 . So I thought this was a scam waited for my new phone to arrive wich never happened .luckily I checked my credit card and low and behold there was a new charge of $89.99 I had to cancel my card so the 89.99 dollars was not chared. got lucky I was only out the19.99 dollars.The name of this scammer was the Somaro group .So beware everybody of these scams
Congratulations on 1M
I’m here from 90k
It quickly goes from "we choose ten random people every day" to "hurry, supplies are limited". This suggests that they randomly choose more than they have to give away, or it isn't actually random selection. This is a clear and obvious contradiction (red flag) and they are so quick to urge you to do things immediately (red flag).
What's sad is that there are hundreds of people missing the clear and obvious red flags and recklessly putting in their info desperately hoping for a free iPad.
Bruh
This 12 minute Guardio commercial is pretty good. I hope they paid this guy A LOT!
I love how you used the 24 countdown clock sound effect at 7:44 ! My favorite show !
– 11:32 Or you can just get cheap knock-off earphones from eBay without having to worry about fake charges to your credit-card every few minutes afterwards.
– I got a couple of BlueTooth earphones from eBay for $3-$4. one sounds like garbage (at least for music, for spoken stuff, it's meh enough). The other sounds much better, almost as good as proper earphones, but they knock off the design of Apple's earbuds which are absolute trash ergonomically and keep slipping out of my ears. 😒 The one that sounds bad fits properly and snugly, but it has crapped out many times, I've repaired it half a dozen times. The one that sounds better also has a bloated, bulky, fat control-box. As usual, there's no better one, you have to compromise no matter what. (It might be possible to find better ones for $10-$20, but I can't be arsed; I barely use these two as it is.)
Really funny how much legal trouble they could actually get in if this was an actual sweepstakes.
Congratulations on your 1 Millon subscribers ðŸ‘ÂÂÂÂðŸÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ
That button really said
No Thanks! I don’t like to save money & will pay more later. That’s stupid
Imagine wanting crapple products to begin with lol.
there is no such thing as a free lunch
Wish you tested the battery life of clear buds
you should try running whois queries on domains that are affiliated with scammers and reporting them
base from her accent, she is from the Philippines. just an fyi.
I once got an email from Facebook saying someone tired to log into my account. I don't have an account.
I have got a message like that for an ipad mini more then once
Happy 1M Ben!
thank you for this video!!!
You are so great for informating others about such scams they might not be aware of.
Nothing in life is free after all.
Also yippiee on 1M my dude! ðŸ‘ÂÂÂÂ
Congratulation ( just one ) on 1 mill subs greenboi 💚
Been contacted 2 times in the past couple days by cash app scammers told them my name was Phil McCracken and my hyphenated last name was withyourtongue
Those airpods look very much like the ones you can pick up at DollarTree for $5 only a different colour.
Congrats on 1 million! I remember discovering you when you had 900k
Thank you Privacy. Awesome app.
Wait a moment. You represent Guardio, but you did before Dashlane. Which one is better?
Dude I work for a credit card company and talk about fraud all day. I could tell you some stories. We call these call centers all the time. They never say what company they work for. It's always "press 9 to speak to customer service" and then they answer and just say "thank you for calling customer support". They are so secretive.
I like how this video is basically designed to be an ad and not just a video with an ad in it. 😑
Bunch of scamming sacks.
My 80 something mother keeps falling for these scams. Fortunately it's not frequent and her card issuer has gotten hip and declines the transactions. Then I have to untangle it and repeat my standard lecture titled: You Never Get Something For Nothing And Nothing Includes Cheap Junk
Scammer wants to know your location and bank info to win.
I'm surprised the earbuds worked! My partner recently got a pair of earbuds off Amazon that where a complete scam. You had to download an App to use the ear buds. 🤆Extra scammy if you asked me.. thankfully he was able to get a complete refund, but, holy hell, Amazon has been sketchy recently.
Idk where they are, but clear buds or at least something like them can be bo<get at dollar generals or Walmart for around $10 bucks and they are cheaply but they do the job. I had a pair last 6 months before the button on the case broke. (You had to press a button to tell the case to charge the ear buds
