Do not talk to the Telegram Texting people in the comments sections of videos. They are a team of scammers and imposters. They have no real life skills are have sunken in life to a level of petty theft from their computers. These people should be ignored or trolled, do not pay them.

    Oh yes good idea I wasted 1 hour off their time lol so sorry not your fault at all Ray take care

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Douglas Bobar says:

    I got one scammer but I fixed them they didn’t get me

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Terry S says:

    I report the scammers every time I see them. Annoying losers.

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars King tob says:

    I got one today

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Marco Pozzi says:

    I developed a website that i use to track scammers. I can use that to scare them

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Danger Noodle says:

    Ray, you’re a good man and i enjoy your content. But i feel that suggesting to an audience to have any interactions with scammers is irresponsible at best. This will do nothing about youtube’s apathy, nor will it deter scammers. The potential for some unwitting and good intentioned audience member to get themselves in a terrible situation is very real. Something needs to be done, but this isn’t the answer.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars no says:

    Some channels had to block emojis from comments to stop the spam.

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stevo says:

    these scammer scum bags are relentless,every video you post and others im subbed to i get these offers,,check out pierogi,,kitboga and jim browning to name just a few they are amazing,they access the scammers files even their premises and security cameras and really mess them about ,,
    some of the victims they try to help and deal with are heartbreaking,,,
    keep safe everyone . ,thankyou Ray..👌👍

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Cheepchipsable says:

    Viewers can click on the three dots to the right of the comment and report it as spam.
    The more people that do this the quicker it will stop.
    Do this each time you see these bogus messages on any video.

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Henrik Stenlund says:

    Thanks Ray. I have been the subject of these scammers for several times in many channels but I ignore them totally. They can usually be easily recoqnized.

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Broke Crypto Miner says:

    Use online credit card generators , the scammers will try to use the numbers.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars PB WALES says:

    the only ones that would downvote this would be the scammers , you must have 25 of them lol, dont respond just ignore and report

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Broke Crypto Miner says:

    maybe disable the comments on all your videos and all youtubers disable them.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeremy Anthony says:

    There's a scam going on on Instagram too. People asking for gift cards on their.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars KaosInfedel says:

    I'll say this now those scammers are complete assholes but to be fair if you fall for something as crazy as what they're saying well you kinda deserve it. They make it so obvious it's a scam and I really have no idea how anyone believes them

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 182Q KFTW says:

    Hello, Yer car warranty is about to expire- Pleaz call me w/ yer Visa knumberz

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Not an Indian Scammer says:

    Do you work at pep boys?

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eldon Howard says:

    I figured out they were something to be ignored.

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dale Jones says:

    Ray hope every one can see it's a scam but you need to keep telling people for there own good

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Salvador Miranda ortega says:

    How are you ray I watch your videos it gives me a starting point to work on my car brother.

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Milwaukee Road Jim says:

    I report any comments on the channels I watch that seem inappropriate to the channels video

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sam Cambron says:

    A little off topic…

    When the “Sheriffs” office calls and tells me there is a warrant for my arrest and I can pay a fine over the phone. I tell them that YOU (scammer) can sent a deputy to come arrest me. I will be waiting on my front porch. I usual get the ever famous CLICK!

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Steve EAB says:

    Maybe if these guys/gals were all sent Susan's way then it would stop. I mean YouTube is ridiculous with their ass backwards priorities.

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Alex Pittendreigh says:

    Very important message and a good idea Ray. I'll give your suggestion some thought. Just need to sit down a minute first after that hectic whirl around the workshop putting away your tools and cleaning up. 🥴

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Nix FJ Adventures says:

    Thanks Ray! See if you can sell the scammers a box of Fresh shop gravity!

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Carlos Navarro says:

    i got the same message on the South Main Auto channel

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SomeGuyInSandy says:

    Wait… You mean I didn't really win your left hand blue toolbox? I am very disappointed.

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus says:

    I've been flagging scammers here, on Craigslist, Ebay Motors, Facebook Marketplace, and elsewhere for years. They keep coming back, and always will. But the main thing is that stupidity will always exist, people will always fall for this crap no matter how obvious the scam, and as such, it will never completely go away.

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars A Person says:

    These scammers are lower than pond scum and should be treated accordingly. And youtube really doesn't care. It would be really nice to be able to nuke these scammers (figuratively speaking). Not really related to youtube scammers, but check out 'Scammer Payback' and 'Jim Browning' – they're going after the scammers that are arguably worse than the youtube scammers. Educating the 'weak' or uneducated to the reality of these scams is what needs to happen to shut them down.

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars george so___s says:

    it is the responsibility of all of us when ee see scam comments to report them.
    as for you,no blame can be assigned to you 😉. these scammers are in EVERY channel comments section,so users should be already familiar with this.
    anyway good heads up,i like you very much.
    Geia sou from Greece.

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ian Kennedy says:

    Some tech YouTubers like Hardware Unboxed were able to setup filters to block anything with an emoji or other graphical character and it seemed to address a lot of this BS.

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Justin Rapley says:

    amazing how society has come to this point in time. Such a bad mark on humanity.

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars DanKuches says:

    I like it!!!! I will give it a shot…

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Oscar Garcia says:

    Thanks for letting everyone know!

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jerry Cromwell says:

    I got that last week when I commented to you about Ian. Didn't reply, thanks for the heads up.

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mark Branton says:

    Great idea Ray, I'm in. I do this with phone scammers

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Robert Hackenberg says:

    You.crazy fool, I'm in.
    😂😜😂

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ryan says:

    Not too long ago TerminalMontage made a hilarious animation exposing this problem. Big takeaway here is that this is all across YouTube and not just here, so look out for this stuff. It will also come in different formats and simply as spam messages sometimes. Since Google can't figure it out for some reason, it's up to you to keep a watchful eye out.

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Noah Howard says:

    I use my local sheriffs office address and number as my address and credit card number. Then I use one of the spam call numbers I get occasionally as my cell number. The thought of 2 scammers trying to out scam each other is hilarious to me.

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Zoron Stillwater says:

    Yeah youtube has a algorithm to show ads at us but they can't figure out how to stop this.

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SaTaNeAtChEeSe says:

    As far as I can tell from all the people I am subscribed to, you are the only one addressing this problem. I've had loads of these fake responses and I just report the comment.

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars jon says:

    The fact people give credit details away for free, says they deserved to get scammed. people are too gullable.

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Blackjack4701 says:

    Let's goo ray it's time for war with the scammers

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Manny Beck says:

    Everyone, on the subject of not giving your real name; your name is Tom. From MySpace. 😁

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars sunnyskiesblue says:

    I don't feel a bit sorry for the people who fall for this BS scam.

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lets Go Garden says:

    Reach out to @scammerpayback !!!!

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jan Brittenson says:

    Scammers don't directly affect advertising revenue. Therefore Youtube doesn't care.

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeffrey Green says:

    These trolls are appearing in most media…. Youtube, Facebook, Tik-tok etc. They craw out from under their rock every minute of every day with the thought that they can steal from you. It's sad but this is the state of the affairs in the interwebs. We're with you sir I do all I can to quell their efforts.

  50. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Alan King says:

    Youtube can slow this down buy prohibiting comments on new accounts for 2 weeks.

  51. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars WTF? says:

    I think that by seasoned citizens you mean people older than me. I turned 71 last month. I've watched people like Jim Browning who can tap into the scammers and really wreak havoc on them. Their main victims are elderly, 80+, and they are just brutal with them. Sometimes Jim is able to get their money back for them. It's really funny when Jim and others hack into the scammers systems and start telling them where they are and their real names and such. I couldn't do anything like that, hell, I have a hard enough time pretending to be me. I could never pull off pretending to be someone else. Stay safe out there now, ya hear.

  52. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars katoumegumi_ says:

    Try ThioJoe's spam filter.

  53. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Cle4tle says:

    This video also applied to virtually every other channel out there

  54. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jethro says:

    They get mad at me when my "Car Warranty" has expired. I keep them entertained – They ask me what car I have my response is always "Pink Barbie 1983 Jeep" Some get the joke, some say "Its too old"

  55. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Manuel Perez says:

    Need to contact Perogie from scammer payback, he will shut them down quick.
    Regards Manny.

  56. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HOMEGUY4X4 says:

    I'm in, I'll do that all day long. I always report them for child porn.

  57. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Knight Wizaed says:

    I'm gonna do it thanks, they tried to get me on it…I guess I'm old lol..

  58. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dis Emboweled says:

    Its not the seasoned citizens, any age can bbe gullible

  59. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Cripple Guy says:

    These ass hole scammers are all over YouTube using bogus counterfeit logos on their fraudulent posts . It's up to all of us to report them .

  60. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars wakcedout says:

    i think they instant like comments and then place theirs in response hoping to get a hit. ive been reporting them every time they comment on anything i post.

  61. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jetjockgordo says:

    This is all fine and dandy but the real question is when am I getting the gift from Rainman Ray's that I paid the shipping for? I mean it must be a car for the $3k I paid for shipping! Lol

  62. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Andrew Dillon says:

    yeah,, ive gotten them on Matts Offroad , Robbie Layton , And Trailmater,,wankers..

  63. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Frank Carpentier says:

    Thanks for your concern. I've been messaged by the scammers and ignored it. I now will do what I can to help get rid of these people. Obviously, you are well liked by your ever-increasing audience. Keep up your great videos and your caring for customers. Unfortunately, guys like you are few and far in between in the entire automobile industry.

  64. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HeysusCA says:

    Yeah these scammers eat ass… sad theres companies out there that dedicate themselves to rip people off and no consequences whatsoever …

  65. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kenneth Schilling says:

    I wish that YouTube would give us viewers a option that report them secretly so they can gather the information to give to the FBI so they could take care of it.

  66. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kevin Curry says:

    They suck and need to be stopped.

  67. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Snow Hare says:

    Yes, they do this on quite a few people's channels.
    The trick is to take note of the phone number, website address (not normal,) etc. They're usually foreign. Probably from India, African continent, Russia , China etc. I think I had an international number sent starting with a 1. Covers a wide range of countries still.

  68. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Glenn T says:

    60 dont click on anything…..unless shes 59.

  69. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Peter Mahon says:

    Thanks for the warning! Love your vids.

  70. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars smallengines_tools says:

    Allow some narrators to start removing and blocking them.

  71. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jim Meade says:

    I've gotten several of these. They're obvious scams and I just ignore them.

  72. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars S says:

    This happens on EVERY channel.

  73. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SpectreOz says:

    Been targeted a few times, these scum are operating on several channels.

  74. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lrr_Of_Omikron says:

    Time is money to these scammers and every minute of their time getting wasted is time they can't be scamming someone els.

  75. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars It's a Dogs life... says:

    Best video I have seen you do. Bringing the us too the attention of these idiots, thankyou Rainman Ray! As far as your other vid's are concerned, I am typical Kiwi car enthusiast who regularly tinkers with his own toys, mainly in the area of electronics. recently though I changed the spark plugs in my Nissan Elgrand (E51)… next time I'll send it to you and break your brains! ;-(

  76. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jonathan Deitch says:

    The Telegraph bots troll every large channel … in many ways it's how you know you've made it as a channel when they target you.

    The unfortunate part is the game of whack-a-mole is endless, and they have seemingly endless resources.

  77. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bob Craighead says:

    Keep your videos going, I enjoy to adventures, Screw the spammers

  78. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Blalock says:

    I’ve said it multiple times. If YouTube spent a tenth as much energy on fraud prevention, as they do on suppression of free speech, the platform would be free of fraudsters.

  79. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gustavo Luna says:

    This is hilarious

  80. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Johnyshmit says:

    Unfortunately the community is way harder to organize than victims

  81. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars wally chambe says:

    I report them every time I see them but YouTube is not doing them !!

  82. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Brad says:

    yeah I those Mfers!!

  83. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dave Taylor says:

    I mute and block them as they come up lol

  84. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Michael Ray says:

    I report then every single time!

  85. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mailman Joe says:

    I love the fact that I've confirmed that YouTube has automatically removed some comments on videos I've posted in the past however these scammers just seem to be able to linger around this platform. Seems kinda ironic doesn't it?

  86. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mr Make It Worse Makes It Better says:

    They always hang up on me when I spent over an hour with them. Look up Tom Mabe and he will direct you to the way it is handled

  87. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars D G says:

    Hey, I'd like to bring to your attention that ThioJoe made a tool to help scrub scammers out of the comment section! I dont remember what it's called. But if you look up Thio Joe spam remover it should come up!

  88. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Killerspieler0815 says:

    YES , time to fire back … ah spam back

  89. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Seasparrow says:

    YouTube doesn't care. All they care about is revenue, money, profit…
    They'll let you deal with them. They have enough money to fix, but they won't…

  90. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Artie Hernandez says:

    Ray you just gave this old man more interesting things to do to scammers love when they call and tell me I'm getting arrested for unpayed taxes I piss them off

  91. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HUBBABUBBA DOOPYDOOP says:

    Make me POTUS.
    I'll park the USN off the coast of India, and Tomahawk the scam call centers.
    Then launch B2 Spirits, turn Pyongyang and Beijing into a glass parking lots.

    Russia can do whatever. Let the Middle East duke it out themselves. Bring all U.S. military home from everywhere. Seal Border. If you don't like it- here's plane tickets to wherever.
    Get out.

    On day 2 of my Presidency…

  92. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Paul Muff says:

    Thanks for the heads up Ray 👍👍❤️ ps I’m over 70 and information like this helps us old guys as in my youth this sort of people just weren’t around!

  93. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars BigRalphSmith says:

    I report every one of those dirt bags every time but I agree that we need to engage them at every opportunity. But, I doubt they'll "move on". Not smart enough.

  94. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Michael Lawrence says:

    Ray, I just screw them around and promise them that I’ll get them their money. I even make them set up email accounts in the hope of getting money. Just tell them that you can’t use the app they want. Then ask them to set up an account in different apps. Keep doing that till they give up. It’s hilarious what extreme they’ll go to in the hope of getting easy money.

  95. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dv8 Mr2 says:

    Send them to Scammer Payback channel on YouTube. Entire team dedicated to doing this.

  96. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars GERMAN JESUS says:

    I got free blinker fluid 😂

  97. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jack Waters says:

    I report everyone I see as Impersonating the persons channel. If I've the time I'll try to occupy them. Too bad they don't have a call center. We could Call-Flood them. The more time they spend with someone cagey the less they have to damage someone.

  98. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rainman Ray's Repairs says:

    I bet the scam people will try it on this video soon 😂😂 They’re not too bright
