Email would prove that they’re actually FBI, if someone calls you on your phone and says they’re with law enforcement, that would be a lot harder to prove that it’s a real call and not a scam
What I appreciate about how Marques creates is that he didn't over dramatize this. No fancy editing, re-enactments, or added drama. Just a sit down chat about what happened. I much prefer this approach to storytelling.
yeah...I really dislike those youtube contents with silly cut-ins, over the top music and memes when just telling a story or retelling an event. I enjoyed Marques approach
Although I understand where you’re coming from, there’s nothing wrong with making a documentary, with music and entertaining edits. There’s a time and a place for that.

Carl Sagan, bill nye, and ndt were great bcz they made something important palatable for young people. I really love seeing those quick cuts and TikTok-type edits of science or historical vids. It’s like the new age version of the tv personalities that helped me learn as a kid
Bob the front desk man is the true MVP of this story. He gave MKBHD a heads up about the FBI in the lobby in case Marques needed to escape out a back window.
I believe the FBI did Not have a warrant for him or to search the premises. Respect to all the Government Agencies involved, Bob, and Marcques for handling the situation professionally.
For what it's worth, the FBI would not likely want to be pushy in that situation. They were looking for cooperation to help them investigate a scam that had nothing to do with Marques. Good on Bob to follow protocol, but he likely didn't encounter much pressure from the agents.
If the FEDs wanted urgent access, Bob wouldnt see it coming. Clearly they knew who Marques is and that he would be helping rather than impeding their investigation
people really thinking it work just like in movies, but in reality the FBI and any other three letter agencies will not do the open the door and bargain in, that isn't even legal, the only way they can do that is with judge order to arrest someone, in MKHD case he isn't criminal nor part of the scam, he just happened to have evidence that important for the case.
well makes sense doesn't it? this would have been a cross-state boundary crime, and from what I know of the US law enforcement doesn't that almost default to being in the FBI remit.
Consequences only to those who live in developed nations that has enough resources and manpower to prosecute these people. If this happened in poor nations, yeah, good luck finding them. Especially the US has no jurisdiction outside of it's borders, it can only hand out evidences to that nation where the crime had happened.
Omg finally!! I remember getting an email from the FBI about this too (thankfully without the 3 guys in suits at my door 😅). Got to keep my devices though, so...maybe its time for a long-term review 😂
When I worked security at a data center we had the same rules.... No police thru the gate/into the facility unless there was an active emergency or it was approved by upper management (who always picked up their phones, btw). Our SOP literally said tell them to sit and wait.
also, Marques took down the entire Escobar's smuggling, money laundering, and fraud operation. use it as a bragging right, and people will mistake this clown Escobar with Pablo Escobar now we know that RabbitR1 and Humane AI were not the only fraud operations he managed to took down

Two weeks from now: "Hey guys, Marques here. For some reason every black person I know has stopped speaking to me and is avoiding me. Also whenever I walk up to a group of people chating now they all go silent and stare at me"
That something that happens everywhere in the world. You don't talk to interfere with the investigation because they have to get the bad guy, not make him run away

I laughed way too hard when you initially mentioned the "Escobar Phone" because I remember watching those videos laughing at how bad the con was and thinking, "Whoever did this is definitely getting arrested"
LOL that is how all evidence forms look to be fair. They have a very informal look to them. They are done this way on purpose as they are suppose to be something that you lawyers judges etc can all understand with a simple glance. They lack legalese type stuff. There are more formal ones they put in their reports along with a copy of the one you get. I use to be authorized to sell photo id printers to the dmv and universities. And i would get forms just like this every 3 months when they came to check my stock of blank cards ink and all that type stuff. They would take samples and run off samples. These are the same type of printers that things like fbi irs secret service etc credentials are printed with along with photo ids for the public. Part of the reason i stopped selling them was do to having them come by randomly around every 3 months with out any sort of notice etc. I understand the why of it but i also had a computer repair etc business and it was just to intrusive. I still have my voided clearance badge though :p

Whats the story!!” And of course, a few years later, it’s just the FBI coming to see Marquez about an obvious fraud that he had no part in other than making a video about, and taking some tech as evidence, probably just to corroborate the video which itself would be a footnote in the FBI’s investigation. The end. Nothing exciting, no conspiracy or anything, just a bog standard fraud investigation.
FBI came to his office unexpectedly. They wanted to take the Escobar phones as evidence because they were investigating a scam based on those phones. They did not allow MKBHD to talk about this publicly. You see, it can even be done in a 15 second UA-cam short instead of a 9 minute long video.

As a past content creator for BBY, I had two run ins with the FBI. It was wild as they had to escort me through an airport, and to a safe room in a hotel. It was wild. We would get in elevators and everyone in the elevator was FBI except me. That incident was at the 7th busiest airport in North America. The second time, well, was in what used to be called Downtown Disney. Again, all circling around the digital content we were creating for BBY. When you create content for a Fortune 50 company, apparently they sometimes have questions. I would imagine a large part of this was because I was a producer for the Xbox One Launch event/concert in Times Square, powered by BBY, Microsoft, and our 72 hour takeover of Viacom networks. What’s crazy, is that footage has been mostly scrubbed from the inter-webs by BBY, since it took place in our theater, which is underneath Times Square.
Fun fact, the three server rooms that run the Times Square video panels are housed in the BBY Theatre. Dante was the cashier who sold the first Xbox One live on Spike TV. At the end of the live broadcast, Macklemore and his entourage accidentally stole 4 Xboxes from BBY. We believe someone from Microsoft thought they were Microsoft property, and not actual BBY inventory. 🤦🏼♂️

To be fair, thats infinitely more legible then what I would have written
It looked so odd, but I wouldn't be surprised if that isn't their actual handwriting.
its fake handwriting. to make it hard to trace.
yessss i was about to comment but wait for someone to say it.
8:24 anxiously waiting for episode 2 of MKFBIHD
FBI :👮🕵️
Bob :🗿
"Hey guys, so I've been working for the FBI for 5 weeks and..."
"I'll tell you the story about how the FBI came to my office."
4 years later: "Okay, so here's the story - the FBI came to my office."
Daaaaaamn!
You're a great storyteller Marques. Would definitely enjoy more of these
Love to hear all the behind the scenes details of your dealings with big tech and such. Keep ‘em comin’.
Activo bro 🇩🇴🇩🇴 we need more of this 🤌🏽🔥
Bob is such a boss that he makes the FBI wait at the door. What a guy.
If they don't have a warrant, that's just exercising their private property rights.
LOL I immediately knew what this was about. I hit play thinking "it was the escobar phone, wasn't it?" LOL
Jesus Christ is coming back soon, repent from your sins and believe in the gospel. Jesus loves you and wishes that none would perish but that all would come to repentance. He died on the cross for your sins, so that through him you may have eternal life. This could be your last chance to be saved❤
Lmao I clicked thinking the same thing
I can imagine the look of confusion and shock on Andrew's face when saw Marques surrounded by 3 guys in suits lol 😂
Me too. Priceless.
Love your channel! Great story!
7:45 That could be a movie plot. Olaf escapes from his US prison transport, intent on taking revenge on those that wrong him... 😮
And it turns out all he wants is a positive review of the product 😂😂😂
@@marz8480 Thank god 😂
The "AKA" in those letters have attitude, LOL!
Many, many decades in the future
Death: "I'm here for Marques Brownlee"
Bob: "Wait here in the lobby"
Conclusion, Marques is imortal as long as he stayes in the studio
During this heavy day, your comment made me do a "nose-exhale-laugh". Thanks a lot.
He’s gonna just put his house in the studio
the fact that Bob was ready to throw down for Hi guys Mkbhd here! and the Entire FBI respected his hands enough not to do a home invasion on them like they did to JCole is AMAZING!
FBI: We're looking for Marques Brownlee
Bob: Sorry we're not taking on new clients at this time.
7:18 that handwriting is crazy for an FBI agent
Looking for this comment.
Pretty sure they a required to write like that so everyone can clearly read it but since you arent used to write like that it looks childish.
Damn, Bob is a real one. Remember to never talk to the police without a Lawyer!
Definitely need to give Bob a nice Christmas gift from now on
I can't help but picture the FBI approach Bob like he's dio and they're about to throw hands because "Thou shall not pass!"
Bob is a real one for sticking to the rule 😂
FBI: Open up the FBI!
Bob: Hold up, wait a minute, lemme check with Marques first
Open up... the FBI?
Lol the 'AKA Samsung' and 'AKA iPhone' in the legal documents is the funniest part of this story
The legend says, Chuck Norris had a son and his name was Bob.
Plz no, let Chuck Norris jokes die in 2007

every video you post is a masterclass in content creation!
As a past content creator for BBY, I had two run ins with the FBI. It was wild as they had to escort me through an airport, and to a safe room in a hotel. It was wild. We would get in elevators and everyone in the elevator was FBI except me. That incident was at the 7th busiest airport in North America. The second time, well, was in what used to be called Downtown Disney. Again, all circling around the digital content we were creating for BBY. When you create content for a Fortune 50 company, apparently they sometimes have questions. I would imagine a large part of this was because I was a producer for the Xbox One Launch event/concert in Times Square, powered by BBY, Microsoft, and our 72 hour takeover of Viacom networks. What’s crazy, is that footage has been mostly scrubbed from the inter-webs by BBY, since it took place in our theater, which is underneath Times Square.
Fun fact, the three server rooms that run the Times Square video panels are housed in the BBY Theatre. Dante was the cashier who sold the first Xbox One live on Spike TV. At the end of the live broadcast, Macklemore and his entourage accidentally stole 4 Xboxes from BBY. We believe someone from Microsoft thought they were Microsoft property, and not actual BBY inventory. 🤦🏼♂️
Who is bby
