  • The video "Making life hell for TomTom scammers" where Jim recruits a motley crew of trolls deserves a mention, as not only did Jim invite the likes of "Dee Snuts", desperate lover "Ermintrude Gallows" and "Queen Anna of Arendelle" into his party, they also overwhelmed the poor scammers into submission by relentlessly flooding their text chat and voice lines especially as the operation was apparently understaffed at the time. The scammers tried to ban every single user left and right but it was all to no avail as the trolls kept pouring in through VPNs reporting to be from absurd locations, not to mention Jim commandeering the computer network he and his cohorts were trolling, revoking the bans as soon as the scammers throw them. To add insult to injury, one of the sites posing as a support page for Garmin GPS devices was later defaced by an unidentified hacker.
  • In many of the videos, you can often begin to hear the scammers cursing more and more creatively as the scam falls down around their ears.
  • In the second of the four "Spying on the Scammers" videos, Jim calls up one of the scammers and starts grilling them about San Jose, the city they claimed to be working out of. The guy can't give a single answer, and after he lets slip that he lives in India, his attempts to backtrack culminate in him claiming that he and all his coworkers live and sleep in their office in San Jose. Jim can be audibly heard trying not to laugh as he continues to Pull the Thread.
  • "Parents or Police?": While gathering evidence of a scammer's operations, Jim discovers that the scammer was watching Jim's videos while at work... and shared them with his friends.
