This week we finally got one on the phone, and in this video we expose how their scam works.

@KrispiesGaming You have free speech - be racist if you want. People won't like you but it's not against the law. You don't need to be afraid.

Another way of telling if it's a scam, if they're Indian and there are White people on the website for uk and Australia you can bet it's gonna be phoney (Not trying to be racist, my dad called up our provider and they blabbed on about this shit)
