Pig butchering scams are one of the most devastating scams around. They are a combination of a Romance Scam and an Investment Scam, usually involving crypto currency.

In this video, I worked with someone who infiltrated a pig butchering scam in Dubai, UAE. He was able to take undercover video and audio to help expose how the scam works.

So let's have a look deep inside one of these scams...

    It was a pleasure unveiling this with you, sir.
  • @PleasantGreen
    I don’t know who I have more sympathy for, the victims or the employees held captive. The stories I’ve heard haunt me.
  • @delboy9234
    I never realised these romance scams were run as big organisations, I thought it was individual people, but I know now from watching informative videos like this.
  • @stephdau
    A neighbour of mine is going through the very same at the moment, and now I have a great video to show him to validate what I've already explained to him. Thanks!

    Why would YouTube not monetise this content? It’s factual, informative, educational. Jim is a legend and is saving millions of people from these horrific scammers everyday. Youtube is a strange beast.
  • @KarlRock
    The scale is shocking! Even having an in-house model. That’s next level. I hope Dubai Police will take swift action.
  • I was a victim of this type of scam in early 2020 and it is incredibly shocking to realize how well they work to get you to fall for their entire scheme. Back in time, when the scammer asked me to take out loans to withdraw my "profits", I decided to stop following their instructions and then they become very aggressive afterwards. As I was trying to understand what was happening, I came across a subreddit where people were sharing their stories and my heart broke as I realized that my loss was nothing compared to theirs. Some of them were involved for more than a year, some others lost tens of thousands of dollars. In the end, I'm glad that this process taught me a lot about how they do things and that I was able to help people who were engaging in such a degenerate scheme. Thanks Jim for what you have done so far, and good work as always. Be wary, be cautious, and stay safe out there people!

    As a lonely person, these scams make me so angry! Thank you for stopping these people!

    I asked chatgpt if it knew what pig butchering scams were. Here is what it wrote lol: "Yes, I'm familiar with pig butchering scams. These scams typically involve a seller offering to sell a live pig to a buyer at a seemingly good price. However, once the transaction is made, the seller may provide a pig that is either dead, of much lower quality than promised, or not even a pig at all (such as a different animal disguised as a pig)."
  • @peecee1384
    You deserve a medal for sharing this information. God bless you.
  • @dxbbred
    Born and raised in Dubai, will be showing this to people who should see it.
  • @humble.genius
    Shoutout to the whistleblower. Huge respect for the integrity.
  • @Rudolph-1
    UAE local here (not from Dubai). I know a few higher up authorities in Dubai and I’ll definitely share this with them. Great work as always Jim!
  • @RalphieRoper
    Thank you for creating this. More people need to be aware.
  • One of the best ways to avoid being scammed is to watch videos like this. Education is power.
  • @4RILDIGITAL
    This is an eye-opening revelation about cyber threats. It's shocking how deceptive people can become. This information is definitely valuable to prevent such online scams.
  • @LAINYTAVARES
    I found myself addicted to your videos ❤ The purpose of it, the justice, inteligence well used, a straight to the point explanation, not a single annoying yell to sound "cool" like they do on other channels and etc... If I could give you a bear hug, I would! 😂 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
  • @theonefood
    Wow, this channel has become even better since I last watched a couple of years ago. Better than Netflix.
  • @NegativeROG
    Jim, THANK YOU for defending us. Thank you for exposing them, educating us, and being a positive force in this crap world. 👍👍👍
