@@purp40 I've made decent money online, no need to encourage people to do cybercrime. Usually there's done more harm than good. Though I must admit that they got away with a trophy.
The best stories have a surprise and the better the surprise the better the story. Nick was FULL of surprises and always the stupidest of them, of course.
The crazy thing to me is that a crypto expert that owns +900M in crypto, who talks at crypto conferences, who has already had the experience of getting simswapped, STILL is susceptible to the same low-level attack and even stores his crypto keys in his email. I own 5$ of a shitcoin and have a security infinitely better than that
I have better security too. Had local 2auth and everything. Then the processor on that phone died and bam just like that 5k gone. Low key regret making it that secure without backing up the private key from the 2auth
Nick basically snitching on himself the entire time is actually a known phenomenon in psychology. This is why some criminals crack easily in police interrogations, sometimes giving up more information than was asked for at the expense of their freedom. He had psychological issues that he couldn't manage but he didn't want to get actual help so his subconscious basically made him turn himself in. You can see by his facial expression that Nick is not right in the head.
no one who sims is cuz simming is linked to extortion and cults n shit to find out how to sim and people to do it with you have to be on some of the WORST parts of the internet ( im a former simswaper )
@@lunavissthat’s the side you found yourself in, I’ve been engaging in sketchy internet activity for years now. YOU CHOOSE to get involved with that stuff, sure it’s the internet so it’s related, but ultimately it’s your decision to associate with that. The extortion shit is 100% tho, and scary.
@@4bSix86f61 To be honest, our justice system is garbage. I used to think these scammers would get away with everything bc they’re outside of US legal jurisdiction. These guys’re fairly smart but not extraordinary. There’re Occupy Wall Street activist still in prison or house arrest for silliest crimes. I can’t imagine how many teenagers’er in Juvenile Detention for selling weed.
100% and they're still fumbling it That said it's a tough problem. The insiders & social engineering was tackled pretty quick but once kids started RATing employees to get panel access I think it got much harder
True. Honestly though, Pinsky has since had a hell of a redemption arc. I feel bad he has this monkey on his back and hope it does not affect his career too bad.
@@purp40 Pinsky didn't SIM Swap Crypto from anyone else other than Terpin as far as I'm aware. Rob Ross was hacked by Truglia, not Pinsky. He didn't ruin hundreds of peoples lives
@@Crumb Except he did, didn't he? Wasn't he selling people's information? I'm all for him being given a second chance since he was a child and may not have understood the severity of what he was doing, but he also definitely did some serious damage, even if indirect.
These Vids are very high quality in my opinion, Really deserves attention more + Please keep making these cyber-security videos! its genuinely educational and entertaining.
The best thing about living in uruguay is that in order to simswap you, they most likely would need to steal your phone and get your sim out, then manage to get the pin right in 4 tries
This is the first time I have seen your vids but your add read was good. It actually relates to the story. I usually skip them but I let it slide this time. The warm up was soo good.
Crumb back at it again with another certified banger. I sound like a broken record, but I swear the quality of these videos gets higher and higher every single upload. Keep up the amazing work, man!
@@failedfailure7940 No one ever even said the word race. A bike just floored it past me so I floored it too. We got up to 53 miles per hour in a 45 mph zone… 8 over the speed limit and I got dragged through court, put on a year probation and charged with a misdemeanor. I wouldn’t call that light 😭
@@failedfailure7940 Sorry I phrased it wrong. I meant me and the guy I "raced" against never mentioned the word race. I dont even know who it was. And yes your right I floored it up to 8 over the speed limit at 11pm with few people on the road. I'm not saying I didnt do anything wrong but are you really saying I deserve a misdemeanor a year of probabation and being dragged through court for 8 over?
He definitely wants to maximize punishment and restitution. I feel bad for Pinsky, he really has turned this life around and I hope it won't affect his career too much. At the same time to play devils advocate, getting robbed is a hell of an awful feeling and I'm sure I'd wish my theif nothing but the worst.
Seems like he is the stereotypical rich guy - gets whatever he wants, and now that someone took something relatively small from him, he wants to grind them into the ground to make a show. Probably secretly happy the kids got him 15 min of fame
@@orc001nah these kids are getting what they deserve. Don’t steal from people it’s truly that simple. If these kids learned basic morality in first grade they wouldn’t be suffering these consequences.
Reminds me of someone who only wrote scripts and hosted servers. I kinda miss that guy... No I miss that It class. It was so lax environment just for pushing out experiments on codes, but didn't really reach the levels of these guys. The one I knew probably didn't also, but he was above the lessons of the basic education. He was experienced enough to just continue straight to becoming engineer or something.

Poor Ellis bro dude seems decent like genuinely seems like someone who wants to do good be a good person just had fun when he was young and didn't really know better till after
ay bro u ever like hop on with the boys for a week and have the best mc server and then y’all get bored and do it again next year ? minecraft good sometimes low key
"x-box chit talker"....good one ! that's the problem with crime, you need accomplices to scale it up inorder to make it pay off, but then you have to work with criminals.
you should do a video on OGflip. very similar story, tons of scamming, fake personas/dual identities, middleman scamming, etc. I used to be a part of this comm. circa ~2013-2016. Shit was insane.
@@Crumb I suppose if we're considering "legitimate" as "legal" then sure, but creating an artificial shortage by buying things you don't want, then selling them to people who actually want them at prices way beyond what should be paying is an absolute waste of life thing to do.
I remember being in ps4 parties with Colton he had the og psn God and then I heared he went to prison for sim swapping but I never got the full story until now😭😭
Why would anyone keep crypto keys on a phone? He could have kept them on an SD card in his sock drawer, or put them in a safe deposit box. Phones are more vulnerable than home computers, aren't they? Do people keep the keys on their phone so they can compulsively trade all day long, or what?
What these young people have done is wrong, but the whole story is not told in this video. Michael Terpin is the real villain in this story. He waited until Ellis Pinsky turned 18 before choosing to prosecute him, ensuring he would receive a harsher sentence. We live in a time where young people get a distorted view of the world through social media, believing they need expensive cars, extravagant parties, and big houses. These problems should not be solved by giving young people harsh sentences. Instead, we need tech companies that own these social media platforms to take responsibility for presenting a misleading picture of the world and what a good life is.
Have you ever considered doing more technical videos on these kinds of cases? I know that SIM Swapping is pretty trivial but love your style and would be cool to see something on like one of the big eth smart contract vuln exploits.
I love how this was once a scrappy RuneScape channel with a few thousand hits, and now it’s a true cybercrime channel with millions of views. Algorithm magic lol
