About this listen

"Most scam victims never see the face behind the voice. This time, I turned the tables—and got him on camera confessing his entire operation."
In this gripping true crime episode, we join a former IT security analyst who spent three weeks building a Nigerian scammer's trust using fake photos, a Google Voice number, and a carefully scripted persona. When they finally FaceTimed, the scammer opened up about everything: the call center's location, the money mules, the source code for fake bank login pages, and the bosses who would "disappear" anyone who talked to police. The victim who had lost $20,000 got her money back. The scammer? He was arrested while trying to board a flight to London.
Featuring interviews with scambaiters, federal investigators, and victims who fought back. No graphic violence—just the satisfaction of a predator outsmarted. Press play for the story of how one phone call brought a scammer down.
