- Опубліковано 27 лип 2020
- In a series of candid interviews, we relive some of the most audacious scams and fraudulent stunts of our time from the mouths of the perpetrators themselves. Whether it’s money, fame or simply an addiction to lying, we find out what motivated these tricksters and whether the highs, lows and ramifications were worth it in the end.
In this episode of Fakes, Frauds & Scammers, we meet Elliot Castro who as a teenager stole £2.5m through credit card fraud and blasted the lot on Rolex watches, cars, top-end restaurants and five-star hotels in every country in Europe. But it wasn’t long before his champagne lifestyle would spell his downfall.

Vice made a ten episode Netflix show in 6 minutes
Literally, hate drawn out series that could be done and dusted within an hour
@@parlay-music mate 5mins and you get everything and i wholeheartedley agree for fraud especially they coulda went above and beyond even tho he was a teen like 2.8mil is nothing to scoff at and i can imagine the detective who been chashing him for 3yrs that must have been fun for whoever foot that bill but i think this all speaks to something bigger since i've watched many a fraud video on vice many people have done it and that insane to me
Seriously
Vice over Netflix any day
Really hoping for the episod to come out
Plot twist: He made this all up to scam Vice into promoting his soundcloud
His soundcloud is amazing though. This is comming from someone real and not from one of his promoting account
All that gear and his tunes sound like synth demos

Yeah I really don't understand how that would work cause surely they would have guards take him to the airport and someone accompany him on the plane. They wouldn't just open the gates of the prison and say "off you go then lad to the airport bus number 11" I smell BS!

@@pearlhartney9 not really. Escort to the airport surely, get him on the plane yea, but they propably would bot have been with him on it because it would be a waste of thier resources.

@@fludblud only in the US
pearlhartney9 one of my best friends dads got arrested and in some legal trouble in Spain and got deported back to the UK and he said the Spanish police took him on the plane, unhandcuffed him and then walked off and just left him there to be picked up by the British authorities when he landed, so that part of the story could hold water

Now it all makes sense.

Could probably last their lifetimes and more if they understood stocks and investments. But when they have the consumer mindset in our economy, enough is never really enough.

“It all went wrong, when I got greedy and careless.” Nah, mate. It all went wrong soon as you used that first creditcard and the thought of spending another person’s money popped into your mind and you entertained it.
Things usually tend to have gone wrong, WELL before we even act...
I stole a Clifford the Dog eraser when I was 5 at my big brothers elementary school book festival they had. The guilt of this crime still haunts me to this day.
😂😂😂😂
I stole a harmonica in a music shop in the small town of Rankweil, Vorarlberg, Austria in the summer of 1987.
The shame has never fully left me.
I stole 2 eggs when I was 10. I was dumb
I stole reading glasses & a magazine in some store when I was 10, I still feel horrible to this day 😂💔.
i stole a optimus prime transformer that was out of the box on a shelf at sears and a snickers bar. i got caught stealing the snickers bar. but its only because i was begging my sister to buy it and she was ignoring me and i walked out of the store asking her. i mean i was pretty much yelling it lol

“‘Never meant to hurt anybody” - guy buying Rolex and BMW with other people’s money
Do you know what happens when other people take your money via card fraud? The bank will reimburse you IN FULL. So what are you really complaining about. Sure it was probably a headache for a few days for whoever the fraud was done on but in the end, no one got hurt but the bank.
@@gerardoalvarez2395 I don't feel bad for the credit card companies.
However they pass the costs on to their customers in fees.
@Tomjo5 A little thing called the Credit Bureaus. Do you really know that little about managing identity fraud?

Imagine all the people's money he stole and how much of an impact that would have had on them and their families. Some of them probably lost their house and worse their friends and loved ones.
Was going to write the same thing, seems like alot of people in the comments are admiring him because he's smart smh 😔
The way he described it, it would've been the banks fault, so the bank probably refunded the victims.
Not to justify his behaviour, it still is horrendous, but this gives at least some hope for many of the victims.
@@Marcellllo yeah fr he robbing the credit card companies not the people
Tbh pretty much all the loses are covered by the bank. All the money gets rolled back into tre accounts of people & loses are suffered by merchants and the Bank.

So what protect your money if it means so much to you/could hurt you if you lost it
@Commander Cody never said it was right.
@Commander Cody yes, I blame them for crying over conequences caused by their actions of the past or rather the lack of such. I blame them because it is to a non neglectable part their fault and therefore they are to blame. The morality of taking advantage of that circumstance, e.g. stealing information based on low security is written on a whole nother page and never was discussed in any comment of mine, only brought to the table by you criticising my view on the topic
He’s stealing the banks money not the people’s. Do you really think that the bank just lets victims of credit card fraud lose their money?
he doesn't steal peoples money, the people can call up the bank and tell them what happened. he's effectively stealing from the banks.
Most I stole was a snickers
I stole about 3 lead pencils
I stole condoms when I was three. I thought it was bubble gum. Lol
I stole an eggplant when I was 3 and for punishment I became gay. :/
yeah, i remember taking a candy bar when i was like 5 years old, but when i got home i was so scared i was gonna get caught that i threw it away and never even ate it lol

The old vice been coming back hard since the virus
The lack of remorse is astounding. He caused hundreds (thousands?) of people to have that horrific feeling at the bottom of their stomach - starting with losing their credit card, searching and panicking, then dealing with trying to get the charges taken off, which isn’t always a given. He’s done a fantastic job at trying to come off as “I’ve learned my lesson and changed my ways”… and even if he has changed his ways, to me he doesn’t seem that sorry. Where was the “I am truly sorry to all of these people - I can’t imagine what I must have put some of them through”. Classic case of only sorry cos ya got caught.
oh, boo-hoo... he caused people to get nervous and anxious, what a tragedy! he's such a monster...

Exactly.... very suspicious because it would of been around the year 2000
Maybe he identifies as a teenager? It's 2020. Be open.
I looked him up because I noticed the pretty nice studio that they were filming him in and wanted to see if he worked in music production. On his google page there is a excerpt of his book that says this "Elliot Castro lives in Glasgow and works as a DJ in a number of large nightclubs". that might explain those Instagram photos

The best part of this whole story was how he thought spending time in a Canadian Jail was pure hell. As someone who been spent sometime there myself, I agree with him. However, I'm sure there are way worse countries to find yourself incarcerated in. I can't imagine finding myself on the inside in a country where I didn't speak the language.
