- A self-described hacker wrote to his local news station, saying he used a man's identity to take out a loan from an online bank and now wanted to help his victim. But was any of it true?
This looks low budget I thought it was a flashback to 1980s
i too ‘observed’ the video as a ‘flashback’ perspective
“Was it a hoax? Did Sufi even exist? Now on top of worrying about the loan we showed him this packet” said super low energy as if asleep and super slowly 🙄🤪. You r correct . And that background music
I thought it was going to revisit an old story
This footage looks crazy old
Sitting on the envelope's contents for "weeks" before taking any action doesn't get you guys any points.
Who leaves out of town on a trip and leaves their driver's license at their house?
Exactly. I think they're both in on this.
Right. That makes no sense. The claim the hacker came and found a surveillance video makes no sense either, as if they would find a random video of the actual person holding up their license and showing the application on their computer.They were both involved. The whole story stinks of collusion.
Way to many coincidences lining up and lack of basic investigative journalism. Both video calls using fake background, the "brother" wearing an eye patch, the broken connection, the picture of the two together shows one much skinnier yet the solo pic looks like him... and of course he lent his "brother" his cell phone to make the convoluted story fit instead of buying a pre paid sim/phone while here. And the Canadian "hacker" shows up in California to the house to help. The bank isn't falling for it because their fraud team knows he's lying. Either he was involved or setting up his Indonesian brother for the fall. You can't send certified mail from Indonesia or Canada so that's a massive mistake, you didn't even use a 10 second Google search... you can get a return receipt but NOT "certified mail".
Oh, I missed a few. He coincidently and very conveniently "wiped his cell phone", closed all his accounts, and only provided one credit report agency, there's the big 3 and lots of institutions only use one not all three...
oh I made a mistake, the "fraud brother" didn't return to Indonesia until right after the letter was sent certified mail... how convenient, can't set up your "brother" in Indonesia as the fall guy without international postmarks so he's gotta still be here using your phone, license, and debit card you admitted to giving him.
This looks and feels like it was filmed in 2004 and they should be talking about Beanie Babies, not crypto.
Wow, betrayed by his own brother, its actually worse than being scammed!
This is scary stuff SoFi is going to have a problem with this
What more should SoFi have done to confirm ID? The voice matches, picture matches , the brother used the guys computer / internet / drivers license.
@@bobroberts2371they got a confession. What more do they need?
Why would they give a loan that big without having the person come in and sign, Mr. Bob Roberts? Especially this day and age when it's well known anyone could have anyone's info and they can also make a deep fake of said person. It was dumb on their part to allow it.
@@poolhalljunkie9I agree. They just care about their bottom line and not about people. It’s awful. There should be laws to protect consumers from these types of situations.
@@poolhalljunkie9 The brother looks substantially like the guy whose ID was stolen , having him onsite would not have helped.
This is nuts. Completely nuts.
Thats so sad, poor dude got caught in a crypto scam and theyll never find those people. Only these two brothers and the bank pay for the crime.
Credit freezes are a life saver
They both did it.
Like a f’n movie, so elaborate and complex
Low budget movie for sure
As AI gets better they will be able to fake this face identification verification feature
Lmao what do you mean “will” it’s been possible for the past 3 years. This isn’t 2020 anymore lol
well, i’m definitely never banking with Sofi. 😅
Haha.. total bs. There is no brother and kudos to the bank for not falling for this amateur-hour scammer.
Why would the brother taunt the news station in his letter? Seems to me like the letter was written by the original hacker and the brother was threatened/blackmailed by the hacker.
Remorse. He was trying to give him a method to clear himself.
@@greenbaytechsupport I don't believe that for a second. I think the real hacker is still out there. Until we catch him!
Ten bucks says he did it
I can relate, there are 42 cars connected to me via credit agencies yet I take the bus. So many were hacked these past years.
yes, it is usually someone you know and are close to, I am still waiting for a hacker to steal my identity and assume my student loan debt.... stay broke people
writing this helps the victim. I feel like the letter might actually be written by the victim himself or some friend of his in order to make a real loan look like identity theft
my favorite part is when they got a hacker to hack the database cameras. its easier to say you mapped an image onto your face now a days.. that made no sense!
He needs to know what you know about him because he's gotten paranoid for some reason. If you can't catch him, neither can someone else. Very annoying.

The bank isn't falling for it because their fraud team knows he's lying. Either he was involved or setting up his Indonesian brother for the fall. You can't send certified mail from Indonesia or Canada so that's a massive mistake, you didn't even use a 10 second Google search... you can get a return receipt but NOT "certified mail". Certified mail is ONLY within the US so either you made a massive mistake or he did, you should have shown that envelope and the postmarks.
This is whole story so sus and I agree with you. Also, why was this posted today when it looks like it was filmed 20 years ago!? Also, he went out of state to Oregon WITHOUT his driver’s license!? He left his wallet at home while he and his family, who was visiting from Indonesia, went to an out of state trip?! Another thing I noticed was when the reporter spoke with the “brothers” together, only one of them was live while the other one was not with a fake background. Did the reporter ever have a video conference/discussion with BOTH brothers live at the same time!? Everything about this story doesn’t seem right. I was first sympathetic to the victim but the further the story went, too many red flags started to pop up.
@@Mizzliz2006I mentioned that, both video calls were a fake background the supposed Indonesan had green plants to be more Indonesian I guess. I think it's him in both videos, it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't even have a half brother. The bank knows a lot they're not taking about for a reason, they handed it over to the feds already and he's digging his hole deeper and deeper
I think we have to go back to fingerprint signatures.
That bank trying hard to get back the money from their mistake.
Y'all could have condensed that. Mercy
Lenders typically only allow 1 chance to get through the IDVerify photos and video. This is to prevent fraud by having multiple attempts. The brother should not have been given more than 1 chance to pass the verification tool. Yet he was given multiple tries.
And don’t trust your family or friends 😂😊😱🤪.
The low budget video makes this look like a made up story. Did they record this on a flip phone from the 90's?
What a garbage brother….
Plot Twist: SoFi generated and kept the loan, sent him a Notice to the wrong address and notice of default, and when he responded to the email, by default he was presumed to accept the terms of the loan under default, and begin the payment schedule as noticed in the email.
Banks are telling all the time: keep your sin number private, do not share with anyone, keep your ID private, keep your bank cards safe, keep your credit cards to yourself….Sugi violated all rules…brother took advantage? Or they both are on this?
you know most of ppl with a ssn got breached? was all over the news and with it comes with personal info like parents name, all addresses, credit cards, etc. look up ssn breech. nothing can be done out a hold guess what haxor un holds it with your parents info uh.
😂. Background Checks NON CHECKING !!!!! 😊.
Wow. Bit the same hand that fed him...smh
M guess is that SoFi got on this hackers radar, and set them up to fail.
I have dealt with similar for years and abuse unimaginable
A white collar hacker exposing the weakness of the banking system.Lets thank the person for exposing the information to fix the system.
Clearly you didn't watch the full video😂
Who is watching the bank loaners🎉?
Team 360p let's gooo! 😂
I have Sofi since august of 2023, and I don’t remember ever providing a selfie
ok but why was the ONLY Time both were gonna be on cam at the same time only 1 had a cam on? i lowkey don't even believe him!
👌 👏 wow.
Money & Family never ends well...
Projecting much with this low budget looking crap.
Right on that . Who wants to catch a virus 😢😢 ? I'm sure no-one wants to go where you are . Try not to drop the soap 🤣
What's scary is that Rudi sounds like Sugi, I guess that was why they SoFi assumed Sugi was the one who did it.
It might be a cop.
lol rip
Wait a minute,Court by zoom thanks I am having this issue .
sounds like a SAMM 2 brother's tried to pull off but back fired
People you sure never share your social in medical offices you don’t have to aloud nobody to take a copy or/ your driver license number never it’s not a federal law that said you have to. I refuse it all the time because I saw medical records left behind once in a empty building and was shocking I returned all this to the near sheriff department because I know what it’s good but nobody will do that.
You'd have to know how to set up a clock to understand the multilateral connections together
😶🍿
Hey BROTHERS YOU GUYS ARE NOT VERY SMART. IT WAS BELIEVABLE UNTIL YOU STARTED TALKING ABOUT HOW A SECURITY VIDEO FOOTAGE WAS USED TO VERIFY THE IDENTITY. I'M ASSUMING YOU DID SOMETHING LIKE USING THE PHONE'S CAMERA AND PUTTING IT ON A MONITOR SO HOW DIFFERENT IS IT REGARDLESS OF WHERE THE SOURCE COMES FROM THE VIDEO IS BOTH PLAYED FROM A MONITOR UNLESS YOU HAVE SOME REALISTIC 3d textural reproduction device (no a hologram wouldnt work as light goes through a hologram). The second thing is the broken English really? I'm sorry but I've been using Chat gpt since the beta days and still if use it a lot for my elderly Asian mother. The most impressive thing about Chat gpt is that the translation api doesn't work like you think it does. This isnt google translate. The results will always be a PERFECT grammatically correct English NOT that was awkward broken English forced in the letter (ultimate RED FLAGS = trying too hard and repeated 'hacker/scam group' storyline.
IF THERE WERE ANY MISTAKES IN THE TRANSLATION, IT WILL BE CONTEXTUAL such as not understanding a culturally relevant slang (i.e. Mexican Spanish vs Spain Spanish ...but even chatgpt gets this right). I'll tell you exactly what it won't ever do. Even a Google translate ux from 10 years ago would NOT have produced that broken FOB English.
Lastly ...even if its all true Lol this idiot brother literally handed everything on a platinum platter to Sofi. Sofi is probably breathing sigh of relief. Why put the responsibility on the bank to chase after the loanee who isn't even a US citizen? Since the idiot baby brother admitted to everything (overexplaining if anything) these debt collectors can harass the brother. Meanwhile let baby bro send the money to the US. In the end Sofi can just sit back and collect the money and leave the chasing down to the older brother. If not oh well ...wait 7 years and move on. How is your dad is in federal related like mine is. Hate this country sacrifice my life to serve in the military I still need to get federal loans FML.
WTF 🤬
The look similar
Now also do y'all have the understanding of block weight which would be pounds weight understood correctly
Poor Soggy Soogy
if you're from philly please vote trump
fate of humanity depends on it
just wondering if you guys actually like the taste of Trump's asshole?
What does that have anything to do with the video?
Bot
go get a personality and be a proper person, not a pointless propaganda mouth piece.
@@bloodlove93 i tried responding in a respectful intelligent way and YT deleted it. bec any defense of being republican is immediately censored by YT. im sorry we couldnt have a insightful conversation about this. thanks YT for the censorship and propaganda
Somehow this proves it’s all about the money 😉🤪👋🧁📷.
