Awesome Jim, can't wait, been watching your video's for ages now. Keep up the good work!

Dude that's awesome. I wish I could watch it.

Peter Kerwin

Can't wait to see this video - excellent work!

Syd

Absolutely fantastic, Jim!!! I really admire your dedication, hard work and balls. It's high time caution was put aside and there was some national education on these parasites. Really hope this makes a difference raising awareness and helping reduce this crime, particularly in the UK where this will get seen the most. You should be really pleased with yourself as you've probably trudged a lonely, self-doubting and scary road. Well done. I look forward to seeing how the Indian police are portrayed in tackling this crime.

Mancbuses Limited

Fantastic pal. Sadly i won't get to watch it but well done. :)

Puddles Kayleigh

A truly excellent and important piece of public information Jim. You should be extremely proud of your hard work.

Jason Fuchs

Duuude awesome! I want to punch all of their stupid faces as they walk down the street in cuffs.

Syd

Using a VPN, you may be able to watch it connecting to a UK server. BBC iPlayer will require you to sign up with an email address (didn't used to be verified but may be now) and you should have a UK TV license but the latter is just a self declaration. Obviously, I don't condone anyone watching without a TV license; just saying what might be possible. It could be this is no longer possible; I don't know. Problem is that anyone who knows what a VPN is probably won't need to watch!

Karen Ramsay

It is high time this information became mainstream. With the lack of government intervention it seems the only way to stop these crimes is to make the public aware of the various ways these people are trying to steal our money. Good on you, Jim.

Simon Beattie

Bit of a result Jim. Let's hope as many people as possible watch this. Do you think it might be worth a follow up if you get chance? If Panarama don't want to, try Dispatches

Robert Dyer

Great Work! Will this ever make it to your YouTube channel, maybe after a few months?

Niall Evans

Great achievement Jim - going mainstream with the BBC, well done. I have Panorama on to record - for some reson, here in Wales - we have to wait until 12.30 in the morning to get the programme.

william pugsley

Officially you can not as BBC content is typically blocked outside of the uk. It might end up on youtube.

Keven McInerney

The great work you do protecting people you don't even know is truly inspiring. You can lay your head on the pillow at night knowing your done good things and sleep soundly. When the time comes to head up to that big computer in the sky you can watch that scamming gutter trash heading downstairs.

I should have bumped to $20 before, but when I look at what I spend per month on silly things I realize that $20/month to sponsor Jim doing his good works is some of the best money spent. The BBC trailer is how I'll get some more sponsors in here.

Dr Martin von Mink

Thank you "Jim Browning" - you're fighting the good fight!

Rob Fisher

Congratulations on getting your own Panorama episode! You've hit the big time! Will enjoy watching this.

Simon Garnero

I'll try to watch it when it gets bought by our national broadcaster if it does. Unless it gets on YT or elsewhere before that.

Jim Browning

Panorama emphasize UK victims, but in truth, they mostly target US citizens. Australian too. I just hope it reaches the right audience.

Jim Browning

I'll follow-up myself at least. I know a few people in Delhi who might be able to tell me what's happening on the inside.

Jim Browning

It will be there tonight - a documentary length video will be available at 8:30pm GMT

Jim Browning

If you have Sky or Freeview and look at BBC Scotland or BBC England (95x I think on Sky), you can see it at the earlier time.

Annette Erdtsieck

Wow that's awesome. I reckon you'll get a lot more subs and hopefully these scammers will get hung up on all the time :)

Jim Browning

Well, they mostly scam people in the US. I hope this sheds a little more light on their shady operations!

Jim Browning

And thank you for supporting me in this fight!

Jim Browning

Yup... 8:30pm in England and Scotland, later in Wales and NI.

Jim Browning

Well, if it makes some scammers sleep a little less easy, it will be a good thing.

Simon Garnero

Also, amazing work Jim, you're doing good work. I've shown your videos to my family before, esp since a few had gotten calls from scammers before. Informative! 👍

D Russel

Brilliant work!

Pat Manley Manley

yes Jim we're all behind you, my WhatsApp is 0879248576 if you ever want to text me . I hope they find a way of putting these guys behind bars once and for all . Pat Manley

Mark

This is such good news Jim, for the public awareness of scamming, and as well deserved recognition for all your tireless work. This will probably do more for the cause than closing 20 call centres.

Mark

...and just a little hint for those outside the UK that just like scam call centres, BBC iPlayer (live and catch-up) is pretty easily fooled by a VPN set on a UK city...

Martin Hugi

Fantastic work, just spent the last 3 hours watching your YouTube videos after seeing the BBC News article, and joined your Gold Tier. The planet needs more of your sort, and I'll be learning what I can to do some of this disruptive work myself

Martin Hugi

I do hope you get some 'Slightly Ridiculous' patrons through this media coverage

Jim Browning

I really don't like the term vigilante. I report the scammers to the police and I don't take matters into my own hands. I only publish details if or when the police (in Delhi) ignore me.

Jim Browning

Indeed. I'll tweet about this when it's available on iPlayer. Panorama have a YouTube channel too, but I'm not sure how quickly them upload their content.

Jim Browning

Thank you Martin. Great to have you here. You'll see quite a few more videos (just for Patrons) in the coming days. A few live chats too.

Jim Browning

Heheh. I actually have one person at this level! Thanks B3AR!

Martin Hugi

That's awesome. Yes thanks B3AR!

Martin Hugi

I do try to keep them on the phone for as long as possible, playing dumb, and then finally tell them I don't have an internet connection or some sort of nonsense, but you have taken this to a whole new level that I had no idea existed

David Gill

It was a great documentary!

SimpleShaun

I salute you sir. You have skillfully taken awareness to a whole new level. Keep going, #proud

Gary Maxwell

Hmm, I was just watching the video "Spying on the scammers [Parts 1-3] " and it appears to have been taken down.

Colby Meyer

I think it was accidentally uploaded to Youtube without marking it as unlisted for the Patreon people.

Thomas Aspen

This is fantastic and i hope it results in many more subscribers. Please be careful thou . I assume the reporter and crew knows your identity now and that can be a slippery slope. Not that i your judgement ;), But for some reason my brain feels that a line in the intro of a show my wife used to watch is relevant here: "Two can keep a secret, if one of them is dead". Pretty Little Liars if i'm not mistaken? :P

Mostafa

The BBC documentary was great and I’m glad you’re getting this kind of exposure, but your video was far more in depth and interesting to watch.

William Skinner

Fantastic work Jim, were all really grateful for all this, I hope that the Indian authorities do something...

Paul Carmichael

Oh, that's gold! Can't wait to watch it all! Just a shame I can't watch Panorama in Brisbane without getting a VPN :(

Asuni

Good job Jim, you're an internet vigilante! I hope your patreon would be able to support you in the long run so you can keep this up. Unfortunately, it is likely to be a long fight against the scammers. Be careful and stay safe yourself!

Evan Bench

Even with VPN not able to watch it...

Sebastian

can someone give me the discord invite link, i left it trying to reset my tag from gold to mega gold, and now it wont let me join back

Michael McMillan

Fantastic job Jim! for anyone still looking to watch, I used a great little piece of software called get-iplayer that runs in command line to get it.

Alexander Quiroz

Awesome work! You are definitely a super hero

Whitney Alsept

This was so classic ... went sorta viral Jim's BBC thingy - I loved it :)

M Rawash

Wish we could watch it outside of the UK.

Anonymous

we are doing this in school now.

Valerie C

Pride goeth before the fall...such arrogance!! There WILL be a reckoning, the RECKONING has already begun thanks to you Jim!
