He's thirteen.
He was boasting a lot, but Junseth does a great job of getting to the truth of things.
Him and a group of his friends were hired to make calls to scam people out of their crypto by a guy named Coinbase on Minecraft. Over time they understood the hustle and went independent.
They pay a connect for a list of potential victims, and cold call 5 hours a day on average to launch social engineering attacks against noob crypto holders. They've probably succussed with close to a million dollars between the probably 4-5 of them.
Their too young and ignorant to connect the moral implications of their actions.
He repeatedly says "Its just like a video game" and "Its like, not real" .
The LLM's make this worse.
