New video! https://youtu.be/vKHvTCvM5ZE

Hi folks,
I know this is probably going to annoy non-UK people, but I've been involved in a BBC TV series called 'Scam Interceptors'. It's basically about people battling against scammers and it features a team of people doing very similar work to my own. In fact, I set up the BBC's compute...

Folks,
If you're in the UK or can VPN to a UK IP address, you should be able to listen to Radio 2 - I'm being interviewed there because I feature in a new BBC programme called "Scam Interceptors". It's similar to the work that I do and covers other sorts of scams and fraud.

I'm very sorry for the delay with the next video. Between shooting some content with the BBC (more on this below), catching covid (not serious) and waiting on the police to complete some investigations into the scams I uncovered, I've had to delay what I had originally intended to...

I'm not going to risk putting this onto YouTube at all because it's unblurred. I've already had a "community guidelines" strike for a private livestreamed video for Patrons which contained an unblurred picture of a scammer. So it's likely that Patron videos will be on alternative platforms like V...
