Forewarned is forearmed.

Everyone should educate friends and family about these scammmers.

NEVER GIVE ACCESS TO YOUR COMPUTER TO SOMEONE YOU DON'T KNOW....
The video was entertaining. But, unless the scammers were convicted and served serious prison time, the sting didn't accomplish much of anything. The people arrested probably got off with no punishment and continue to operate more scams.
