They are used to get calls from kids and some youtubers deleting their files.
They are NOT used to be exposed with their personal info out there.
Once it happens… they just run away, take some stuff offline and change their “mask” to begin a new operation.
In this case they might still run using the same websites since is a TON of them and they don’t seem to be really smart.
Still… with all this info out there their life isn’t so easy as it used to be
I think it’s that they may not be dumb but don’t care. As long as the corrupt police is protecting them they won’t worry much. Perhaps a bad tweet about this from a reputed twitter account might shake them up a bit.
I stumbled into their scam a week ago. At first I just thought the technician (using the fake name “Max Forest”) had made a series of rookie errors in diagnostic reasoning. But a post-mortem review uncovered the technical elements of the scam. Once I had a bead on how their scam operation worked, I documented it here and here.
The most telling evidence comes from this ludicrous chat log with one of their agents using the fake name “Mike Coleman.”
