I mean, I'm not... And I hate to be known as a hacker because that always has quite negative connotations. And I hate the term because it just has all of that baggage. But... That is true. And every single person that I feature on any video on YouTube has at some point connected to my computer.

And don't forget, scammers don't always make it clear that what you're typing out gives them access to my computer. because they will quite deliberately say just type this this on your command line when they when people question well what is this thing that you're getting me to download and run and it's in fact a remote access tool they will not explain that so

already there is a remote access connection, which is a sort of hacking attempt because the scammer doesn't make it clear to the victim. They are taking access of your computer and they are not making it clear. Obviously, they're scammers. And I just go a little bit further to say, well, OK, you're trying to

misuse my computer so internally I'm thinking you're now fair game for me to do the same to you so the only people and I've said this a number of times in other interviews as well the only people who could ever have a problem with what I do are the people who try to steal money from others okay and if they ever want to raise a legal complaint or whatever

please bring that on because what I will have done is record how I managed to get access to their computer. And the answer is because they were trying to steal money from me. Now, that's not a defense on its own, but it just means that if I ever have to defend myself for any reason, I have a good reason as to why I have access to their computer.

And it's just because of this theft that they're attempting.

The only complaints I've ever had are privacy complaints on YouTube. Scammers don't like their faces or voices or documents displayed on YouTube. And tough cases.

I have my email address on YouTube and a lot of people just simply email me saying, hey, have you seen this pop up or I've just had a phone call from this number and or I've had this email and it's a fake invoice or my grandparents have just been scammed to use the phone. I get all of that all the time.

I get all of that all the time.

But actually, in a lot of ways, I don't even have to use that because I'm on what's called a mugs list. So in the past, I have pretended to pay scammers because remember this bit where I say I actually need the scammers on? I give them fake information, including credit card details.

And if you work your way onto a list of people who they think they've scammed in the past, they will call you again and again. Those lists are like gold dust for scammers. So the end result of that is I get so many phone calls directly to my home phone number that I don't need anyone else's input. I'm already in the middle of a load of scans. And honestly, there's nearly too many to cope with.
