Yessir
yo flossy! Haven't watched one of ur videos for a while. Happy to be back!
Oh I'm early early
In attendance...As Usual
*Notification Squad Checking In*
Damn, I'm really loving "story time" with Uncle Flossy. This should be a weekly series. Nostalgic as hell.
While white shoes just chilling there 😂
i agree
Should definitely be a weekly thing. Thanks floss. Llllooonnngggg time sub here. Keep ‘‘em coming
I thought the same thing. More story time.
Was feeling the same way, being from the Queens NY area originally myself. He tells the stories in such a real way that few other channels I watch can do lol. I'm all for more stories
Salute to floss for bringing awareness to this scam. #FScammers

Whenever Floss does a rant I gotta tune in
Facts
When he does any video you got to tune in
Factz
Yup lol's, storytime 👌🏾😁
Yeah, me too. Whenever I see a rant in the title, it's story time!!😏
I appreciate you speaking on this OG. These scammers are out of control.
My favorite part about this video is how bad it is for you in the algorithm. This is off brand and not great for the channel but you went hard af on this for us. This is why we fux with you bro. Big props. 💪🏾
Much respect brother
To you
What u mean not great for channel ? I just subbed to this guy for I stumbled upon this vid . Glad I clicked on this vid too . So 🤷🏿♂️
@@cavemanlovesmoke4394 stick around and ull understand what row squad man meant… welcome home… following from west Africa for years now…
For sure…and most treat this problem like radiation…they just stray away from it. Not Flossy…he is addressing the issue.
I'm glad you shared your story of how you got scammed, there's no need for any of us to shame anyone who's gotten scammed. The more we're okay with sharing, the more we can prevent others from falling from the same ones.
Show me people who have been scammed is considered victim blaming. But you know, people disguise as they're genuine. Also, when it comes with buying things such as Ebay or Facebook Marketplace, there are scammers around
I got scammed on the flashlight from UA-cam commercial complete junk nothing like the commercial
I got scammed by a seller from Facebook Marketplace when I wanted to get the Galaxy Buds live and sent me a fake one. I wanted to return and the seller didn't appreciated. I pretend that the buds are defective, but nope, I just want to return and get the real one.
I mean u gotta be dumb to fall for those UA-cam scams pretending to be a youtuber
This is the reason why I love Floss. He cares and values his community and his subscribers. He educates and protects us at all costs no matter what the situation is. He does this all with all of his heart and passion towards tech and not just for the money and for the fame and that I really really appreciate it, and I know we all did. And for that, I want to say thank you Floss for continue doing and producing quality videos for us ❣. I will continue supporting this channel and this community because nothing feels like home like Flossy Carter YT Channel & Community 🙌
He really does care.
I don't comment much, and one time I did, I talk about cameras. and some guy who I thought was Travis MCP was trying to sell me a camera. Look into it, it wasn't travis. This is good by Flossy to talk about this.
Exactly 💯. Tell everyone to TRAX NYC ,,ONE SPACE JUST LIKE THAT IS THE SLAMMING SKAMER TO N HITS 100 PPL UP A DAY
Or he cares about his reputation 😂
I mean you gotta be a real clown to belive it, but yeah
The scammers are all over the place. Terrible that this isn't fixed yet.
Agreed! I actually love story time!
That's bc UA-cam cares about swear words than they do about scams (which is a legit crime)
It's even worse on Facebook and Instagram. Go on any major news outlet page and you'll see them lined up and down each post with copypaste spam comments of crypto scams. Then when you click on their names it's usually a small handful of stolen pictures of some random person but their friends list consists entirely of people in Africa or India.
Exactly. I never fall for those or any scams what so ever.
@@setyourheartablaze___ Or just "Wrong speak" in general.
Floss out on the field defending his community members and call 'em friends. Man, you had my subscription long time ago. Now you got my total respect. You called me friend, I'm calling you friend too homie. This is how you run a community. You da real deal, period.
Much respect brother
A yo it's a scam
Makes me wonder how the hell can't the damn scammers get caught? There are network standards for a reason. Floss is a real person giving real reviews. Sick of it. Floss....do your thing and keep us informed. Thank you good sir.
Scammers very rarely get caught because of the way they get their payment off vulnerable people. I don’t really wanna say too much because scammers are reading this now.. stay safe online. 👍
Flossy is the man! Out here looking out for his followers. This is why I love the channel
I I really love how you're taking care of your community. I've been a subscriber for about 4.5 years and your channel feels like a big family. You're one of only a few creators who really cares about his community and interacts with his audience. There are many tech-channels which are always inventing new things to be able to keep their viewers attention and try to make 100% perfect videos. But who really cares if the video is in 8k with 20 panoramic shots of a phone. That's just gimmicky and might be nice to watch, but what I really care about is the information, the feeling and the vibe of the video. You make that up with a great vibe and your unique style of presentation. You don't care about all that political correctness like some other youtubers who try to keep it family friendly. If something sucks, you tell it as it is. You're not just focused on the technical part of the product you're reviewing, you also care about what that means for the consumer. (like feeling, price and flex-factor) I really love your real reviews with a list of pros and cons. I feel like some other youtubers highlight the pros and only scratch on the surface of the cons in fear of loosing their privileges at the manufacturer of the device. You on the other hand don't give a crap what the company thinks about you and that's what we love about you! So before buying any tech I always check out your video. The only source with 100% unbiased and 100% REAL Real Reviews! You can do anything in your video and make it enjoyable to watch. (like today)
What I really want to see you doing again is Cooking with Floss, Ciroc taste tests and just vlogging or biking thru the streets.
Thanks for the last few years of videos and entertainment. Keep up the great work, and stay how you are.
And if you don't feel like making a video, just turn on the camera and let Shoes do the entertainment :)
Hahaha thanks bro, I appreciate you taking the time to write all that .
@@FlossyCarter ❤
@@FlossyCarter that ain't him that's a scam yo ^
Not only does Floss look out for us, show's us he's a great father figure as well. Good job, friend.
I've always had a personal rule to not spread negativity on UA-cam. I never thought graphics and flashy editing made UA-cam channels. Content is where is at and that's why we're at Floss's channel
Love to have you tell your stories, do it! Btw, I’m a retired doctor. 99.9% of patients were wonderful. The trolls that I got came in the form of bogus Medical Board complaint or threat of lawsuit…sucks!
You’re one of the few ones that truly cares about his subscribers and reply to IG too. I respect you for that man.
More channels need to take the time to do this. There’s too many gullible people out there that will fall for stuff and then blame you.
I wouldn't blame the people getting scammed, they just didn't know any better.
@@xbrandon2252Nah some people act stupid voluntarily. At this point it’s common knowledge that scams happen on the internet. If you win a “giveaway” and not triple checking it’s coming from a verified account you’re just stupid and deserve to get scammed. 🤷♂️
Glad you're talking about this!!! It's gotten ridiculously out of hand!!!!!

@@FlossyCarter The REAL Floss ladies and Gentlemen!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 (look for that CHECK MARK)
Hell yeah talk to youtube. Theres a few other youtubers with over a million subs that are speaking out too and it sucks that youtube isn't being proactive
@@FlossyCarter if it too good to be true it is a scam
@@CKYHALO yeah people need to learn that
@Flossy Carter thank you for this scam alert ⚠️ as a Retired NYPD Detective I appreciate you educating your supporters good looking out⚖️🤝
Wtf are you doing
Remember, if an offer is too good to be true then it most likely is. I've been scammed before years ago when I was a teenager. Never again. Thanks for sharing your story! Please more chillin with Floss content!
Yo Floss, I don’t think I’m wrong when I say this, we the people miss the “Vlogs by Floss” style videos! Please dig into the crates and bring them back, your storytelling is immaculate!
Appreciate you speaking about this! Huge problem on my channel as well, unfortunately.
SMH UA-cam need to get on the job
Your channel is ASS..Flossy is the BEST.
@@FlossyCarter You need to check the video Linus did, he put a video on a guy that showed how to mass block them using a code.
Congrats on almost having 2 million subs btw Floss. I been watching long before your million sub mark and I see you really put in the work all these years, good to see it paying off
Yea most of the squad has followed Floss before the million man mark lol

Yeah.....and this is not his 1st rant at a bone headed perp.
Thanks for the leadership lesson on humility. "It could always be you" is a good reminder. You're a stand up dude Floss.
Floss, please keep'em vlogs coming.
I'd be hyped to listen to all your stories and lessons in life. I do believe that what goes around comes around. Always put yourself in other people's shoes. Thank you for this lit vlog bro.
Thank you for this video man. The fact you’re one of the UA-camrs that looks out for his community just makes me respect you more than I already previously. You’re by far one of the best ones out there. I appreciate that you’re against the people that say: “If you fell for it you deserve it.” Type of comments. Shit most people go to a dealership and end up getting scammed and didn’t even realize it. But guess what it happens. Thanks for both of your stories brotha!
Exactly bro
Respect big Floss. Everyone hates to admit they've been scammed because they think they're too smart but it happens everyday.
Whenever Floss gets real on the rants, you gotta stand at attention….💯
love the story time!! you took me all the way back to the good old 90s with that first one lol you definitely need to bring back the vlogs because I'm here for it 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Lol ok I got you
There's a reason why you're my favourite youtuber Floss! You're the realest one out there and treat your subscribers like family. The way you're comfortable talking to us and sharing your stories to give us lessons is one of the reasons why we love you man . I salute you bringing awareness to these scams. Also, I can speak for all the OG subscribers when I say that we would definitely wanna see you vlog and do the OG stuff like you used to :)
I always love this guy's channel and him telling us a bit about his past stories feels like he does want to be a part of the community and cares enough to put out the word of scammers. I'm glad this channel exists.👑
FLOSS always looking out for the people!!! 👍🏼
Flossy you're the most thorough and genuine UA-camr in the game. Salute to that story.
There's only one Floss and he is the legend. Thank you for being the most real and caring dude on this planet!
Floss, my dude, my friend! We've been knowing how you roll, more specifically, how authentic and honest you have always been 💯 with us. But this video right here solidifies in the thickest slab of concrete a man can make how solid and genuine you are. 💪
I felt every 40+ minutes of this upload and seriously went through all the emotions with you and what you were conveying-getting fed up and frustrated w/ the unwillingness and lack of concern from the platforms themselves, Laughing and imagining them good ole days during storytime, Getting hyped like I was present and ready to jump when it was time to put them hands on dude that gotcha-humbled after hearing your reason for wanting to help all of us, especially wanting us to help each other by spreading awareness, not hate. Man, by that time, my ass was standing up and starting the slow "that's my boy" clap. LOL.
I typed all this shit to say... I heard you. I stuck with you the whole rant, and I gained even more respect(if that was possible) for you, and I'm always guna rock with you 💯 Floss, you're one good solid dude, and I genuinely appreciate you for everything you do and are about.
THANK YOU.
Thanks Eric, I appreciate you sharing your thoughts! Stay safe bro
Been watching your channel for a few years now and I have a whole new level of respect to you Floss! Thanks for raising awareness on this! 🔥🔥🔥
Flossy, my dude, you are just real! You the coolest, realest UA-camr, man! I'm among the majority of people who really pay attention to you and the advice and suggestions you give, bro. You the kind of dude that's a real friend.
#Salute bro
I can't believe scammers have to stoop this low. As someone who is in I.T. for 10 years I ALMOST fell for one. Once they stopped responding to me i knew it was a scam. Didn't give em any info thankfully.
My dude is foe real! Love this channel much respect Flossy. Getting it done wit that old school work Ethic. There ain't no school like the old school! Respect from East LA. Respect!
Man I got scammed a couple years ago for something like $30, and even though it wasn’t that much it left me feeling dumb af lol. Your stories definitely made me feel better, the one about the shell scam reminded me of the stories my dad would tell way back, glad you’re looking out for the community dude 🙏
Floss is the man. Feels like he's always got my back. If he's not dropping dope reviews he's on scam alert.
You the man bro, that’s what’s called caring for others. Mad respect!!!!
It's incredible how this channel always makes me laugh and gives me a good time. Keep up the good work floss!(subscriber since 2018)
Flossy is such a great guy looking out for the vulnerable.
I’m not sure how I missed this video 2 months ago. Even though I’m well aware of these a-hole scammers, I so appreciate you making this video. I always report them. You’ve been kind enough to reply to me, when you’ve seen a scammer post on my comment. I don’t know anyone else who would take the time. I also love your sentiment on the dislike button. Your kindness always shines through ❤️
Thanks my friend, I really appreciate that .
Appreciate these type of videos man, helps the younger audience especially cuz they may have a hard time being able to tell between real and fake shit. Props bro 👊
Thanks for the heads-up Floss! UA-cam/Google, Telegram etc. only care when it affects their money. Shows you how little they care for their users.
Thanks man for bringing this up, it shows you really care. Well done ✊🏿
Thank for sharing your story. When you mentioned breaking the cycle for your child, I almost broke down. I’m trying to do the same too my brother, your a great dad, keep on shining! God bless.
I was scammed this Christmas on eBay. Trying to go cheap on an expensive appliance. It arrived broken and packaged improperly. Out $250. I’d like to think I’m pretty smart and good at avoiding scams. I am one of your older subscribers, between 40 and 50, but closer to 50. But you’re absolutely right, anyone can be scammed, no matter how smart they think they are.
Dave Chappelle spoke about that same scam in one of his routines (the three shell game).
Thank you so much for taking the time to make people aware of this. It is appreciated. I’m sending a lil something something to you so you can get White Shoes a little treat or something. She’s one of the main reasons I watch you channel. That, the comprehensive tech info, and the Smell check! 😂😂🥰
A table, the product, your personality and your community.
Way to define the pillars of success sir 🙂
If you a scammer, on everything, you deserve hands and feet if you got anyone from the flossy Carter crew! 👊
Title alone I had to come through and see what's going on with the scams.. And it's not cheesy exaggerated title. Props to you trying to keep us aware and protected Floss!
I've seen these kind of scams under alot of youtubers comments but your the first to acknowledge it and warn the subscribers just shows u value your subs 🙌 props u to sir
Story times with floss are honestly very wholesome
Finally man! This thing is really just getting unbearable and I can totally see ppl falling for these. Not everyone is tech savvy and not everyone sees the names in detail.
Thanks for the rant.
Mad respect Floss for making this PSA! This is something that I wish UA-cam would nip in the bud because it’s made annoying.
People like Flossy that floss on the daily will always keep it real with you…I salute you Flossy!!
My Man!!!! You’re doing the lords work, this is much appreciated. This an rampart across multiple channels. This is so sad. We love you for doing this.
Hey Floss, thanks for bringing awareness to this situation and for sharing your thoughts, for keeping it real, and for looking out for all of us. As a proud subscriber, I'm appreciate everything you bring to the table. Keep it goin' bro.
Also, bring back the DISLIKE button, UA-cam! There's no other quick way to find out the worthiness of a random video. 🥺
OSAMA LOL
@@FlossyCarter Can you do a shout-out for me on your next video? I'm a big fan of yours. I rate your content 9/11. Excellent. 👌
@@FlossyCarter lmao
Hello Osama, How's the weather in abotabaad?
Damn so they lied about killing you huh?
I thought that story was gonna end with the old lady giving you $150 to cover your loss, and you walking away having learned a valuable lesson. But the way you went about it was way more entertaining 🤣
Flossy told this story earlier once in an other video.. it was not this brief tho, glad he shared it with us. Dang 30 people at a spot.. I would piss my pants 😂
Great awareness video Floss! By the way... you're a great story teller! All these scammer need to CALM DOWN! 🤚🏿
this is a must needed, everyone is going through the same thing
Sometimes all it takes is them catching you at the right time. If you're grieving, sick or in a desperate situation, you might not be thinking straight and fall for a scam when you normally would know better.
@Buc O. You are 💯 correct. It can happen to anyone at any given time
Yo Floss, you're the OG/ Double OG/ Triple OG out here really looking after your people and that's why we rock with you.
It's videos like this that let's me know that Floss is 100% real. He does what he says he does. He's in the comments, he's spreading awareness and he's a consumer just like you and me. I appreciate everything that you do. Mad respect for waiting until you get your personally S22 Ultra to do the real review. It's hard to bash a phone that you didn't pay for and was sent to you by the manufacturer. I can't wait for the video to drop.
This Tuesday bro!
This is the realest Flossy video I've seen in a while! 🤯 I would love more videos like this man. ☺️👍
I'm oldskool too and UA-cam was so personal back in the day. Love how you reply to so many comments on your videos, defo makes people feel included!
That’s what’s up, much respect brother
@@FlossyCarter keep doing what ya doing man, it's appreciated and doesn't go unnoticed! 💚
These are the realist "cats" on UA-cam.
Not only real reviews about phones,but a real human being in full!
Props from Chicagoland
👍👍
How people fall for these kind of scam is beyond me 😭😂
It's crazy... Like how low are people's IQ???
He LITERALLY said in the video to NOT do what y'all are doing now. Stop judging before it happens to you.
Not everyone is tech savvy.
I' m getting to the point now where I won't leave a comment on youtube vids because off all the scammers spammers
@@vinnyhughes007 he's our father? Man can say/feel what he wants lol tf
Though you're here to push your content you've still taken the time out to do a service for the people on here. You're a real one Flossy! Salute! 💯👊🏾
You're a treasure and a friend of your followers. I applaud you.
Thank you! I'm over 60 and I appreciate your help, especially when I was choosing my cellphone. This is great advice about scams and much needed knowledge!
Thank you Flossy! If more people like you informed public, it would hit the scammers hard! Always be aware scammers are also looking for payment methods made to I’d bank / credit / debit accounts to hack
No lie. We need more story time from uncle Flossy🤣🤣 had me rolling
Glad you’re dealing with these scams!
Speak on it Floss. Salute!
Big respect Floss. You didnt have to give those people money and it shows the man you are.
Thanks for putting this out bro. You looked out for me to verify that it was scam when they pretended it was you selling me a used phone from you. You could also tell it’s a scam by having a long conversation with the scammer and catch the bullshit. 💯
Army Fatigue, Dirty Timberlands, and Oversized Hoodies. Man honestly, that shit needs to make a come back
I hope so lol
Love being part of this tech community. Time to clean up the community from the scams!
6:28 “I’m only taking a dump for so long” 😂😂
I'll never understand why UA-cam or all the other social media forums aren't protecting us from this. Stolen identities n scams are so prolific now . I'm old school too . Get em up or get em out . Mad RESPECT for you Flossy
Yo props to bringing this to us the viewers/ subscribers. I had this happen to me a few months ago (not your channel) and knew it was a scam but I bought it to the channel's PR email. You are a man of the people!
it's maddening that youtube doesn't do anything about it, it happens in every tech channel and it's been happening since forever ugh
Glad you're talking about it Floss🙏🏾
Story time with Uncle Floss😂 thank you for setting the scene on your story. Keep ballin 😎
In your settings you can ban certain words so people can't say the names of those apps in your comment section. Their comments will be filtered out.
Appreciate ya Floss. Good looking out for the less aware folks among us.
UA-cam's negligence with these spam comments is incredible. They absolutely have the tools to detect these bots dropping hundreds of identical comments, how they continue to allow this is beyond me.
Man I lost $100 the same way LOL... I was at a truck stop I couldn't do anything but laugh because I'm from Queens too and knew better 🤦🏾♂️
😂😂😂😂
I got scam on the 3 card games back in the projects myself floss so I understand that!!!..floss you on point my bro!!!
Hey Floss,
Let me tell you something brother, Your integrity honesty humility and candidness and hard work over the years in everything you do is truly remarkable and second to none. What sets you apart from the rest is that you always keeping it real and always find time to reply.
Flos my brother you and shoes are great and appreciate you on almost every level,thank you cause i was scammed couple years back on one of those sites but you and your care for ur peps means your better person than most
Floss really do be saving the world
Thank you Floss! I have been seeing this on several channels. I didn't know about the Check Mark but Thank You. I am Samsung Knight so all the iPhone stuff never appealed to me. You mentioned this scam 🤔 I think a couple weeks ago. I never fell for it. Good lookin out. 👊🏾
Well said floss. Good rant. Let's watch out for these scumbags.
Floss is the realest moderator out there. Keep up the great videos. Would definitely tune into a live stream where you just chill and tell stories or something.
“I’m only taking a dump for so long” HAHAHA 🤣
