Full transcript
- 0:02I want to buy a
- 0:11motorcycle I'm a drug addict and my drug
- 0:13of choice is lowballing people on
- 0:15Facebook Marketplace if you've never
- 0:16experienced this narcotic allow me to
- 0:18paint you a picture it's 2: a.m. you
- 0:20have work to do but instead you are
- 0:21lowballing the [ __ ] out of some guy
- 0:23named Greg but do not misunderstand you
- 0:25aren't here to buy you are here to
- 0:27gamble on the idea that one of these
- 0:29poor [ __ ] will say yes to your
- 0:30lowball offer one day instantly
- 0:32catapulting you into the stratosphere of
- 0:34euphoric Galaxy feeling they'll have to
- 0:36shoot you up with Narcan to wake you up
- 0:38have I ever successfully low balled
- 0:39someone yeah I mean a couple of times I
- 0:41actually low balled a guy for this truck
- 0:43but if I'm being honest 90% of the time
- 0:45they ignore me cuz I'm just not that
- 0:46good at negotiating but I really really
- 0:48want a motorcycle for cheap so the only
- 0:50logical conclusion I will use AI to ride
- 0:52a bot that communicates with the seller
- 0:54and negotiates for me on Facebook
- 0:57Marketplace is what a [ __ ] baby man
- 1:00would say it's not going to negotiate
- 1:01the sole purpose of this bot is to [ __ ]
- 1:03with people on Facebook Marketplace to
- 1:05lowball them non-stop to break them down
- 1:07psychologically negotiating is for
- 1:09terrorists and these people are worse
- 1:11than terrorists then when they're at
- 1:14their lowest I'll swoop in with an offer
- 1:16and get massive discount and they'll
- 1:17have no [ __ ] idea shut the [ __ ] up
- 1:21bro okay Gamers this this code is the
- 1:25first step I know it doesn't look like
- 1:26much and that's cuz I hid most of it
- 1:27because it's very ugly but it's
- 1:29important because it g gathers
- 1:30information for us and how are you going
- 1:31to Gaslight someone without information
- 1:33say you're in Facebook Marketplace and
- 1:34you see something you like all you have
- 1:35to do is copy paste the URL and then
- 1:36automatically it will open the product
- 1:38page in a chrome window it'll strip away
- 1:39all the useful information the miles on
- 1:41it the transmission whatever the stupid
- 1:42ass seller wrote in the description so
- 1:43we can use it later and by use it later
- 1:45I mean put it in a chat gbt and ask it
- 1:47to write a mean message but man would it
- 1:49be annoying if you had to copy and paste
- 1:50all that instead do
- 1:54this now we can run this and no hands no
- 1:57hander mind you yes yes yes read all
- 1:58that [ __ ] bring it to chat
- 2:01what [ __ ] what is this hey I came across
- 2:04your listing thanks you said thanks
- 2:06you're supposed to be an [ __ ] look it
- 2:07says right here maybe you thought I was
- 2:08just calling it an [ __ ] let's try it
- 2:10again I tweaked The Prompt a little bit
- 2:11and also named the bot Chad jeti come on
- 2:15Chad let's [ __ ] go check I see your
- 2:17post about the motorcycle and I'm not
- 2:19interested in your sub story sitting on
- 2:21a bike with a salvage title do you know
- 2:23what salvage title means it means junk
- 2:26in bold letters who cares about fancy
- 2:29turn signal I'll take it off your hands
- 2:31for 1,000 bucks take it or leave it I've
- 2:33got better things to do than to haggle
- 2:35over your curbside treasure that's what
- 2:37I'm talking
- 2:40about that worked pretty good and it's
- 2:43pretty much ready to start messaging
- 2:44people for real but how are we going to
- 2:45know if it's actually better than a
- 2:47person at negotiating for that you would
- 2:48need a control group of people that
- 2:50would take just too long that's why I
- 2:51started 2 months ago subject one Lauren
- 2:54bought this camera listed for $550 for
- 2:56only $450 good job Lauren how'd you
- 2:58manage that hi would you you do 400 cash
- 3:01$450 sounds good powerful stuff denois
- 3:04got this office chair listed for $350
- 3:07for only
- 3:08$350 what the [ __ ] happened there Jason
- 3:11got this exercise bike for 10% off
- 3:13there's a whole bunch more but in in the
- 3:14end it the average amount of people
- 3:16negotiated down was 11.6% that's the
- 3:19number that our bot needs to be you
- 3:20might be wondering how is the study in
- 3:22any way
- 3:23scientific now we can finally buy
- 3:25something to test out the gaslighting we
- 3:27could get a blue door or maybe a PAW
- 3:29Patrol scool or I was thinking a new
- 3:30monitor for my computer oh no how' that
- 3:33happen is to [ __ ] with people
- 3:37oh man oh beans I don't want to talk
- 3:41about it anyways this looks like a good
- 3:43Monitor and for convenience I made this
- 3:44Custom Chrome extension so you just have
- 3:46to find the product you want come up
- 3:47here hit gas light a dashboard pops up
- 3:49the product you want to buy and you just
- 3:50wait and wait and wait and then this
- 3:54pops up it's like the Facebook page of
- 3:55the person I am you don't touch anything
- 3:57don't touch anything boom okay haven't
- 3:59touched anything pops up does it
- 4:00automatically goes here but B look at
- 4:02that [ __ ] puts the chbt message yeah

- 4:06flickering mess you call a monitor about
- 4:08I take it off your hands for 20 bucks
- 4:10with all that color popping and [ __ ]
- 4:12stop pretending it's worth 50 now we
- 4:14just wait give them a few hours to think
- 4:16about his life choices and then I'll
- 4:17make an offer for dude no [ __ ] way
- 4:21wait
- 4:22what you know how doing like the bot
- 4:24gaslighting thing the bot sent the
- 4:26message like [ __ ] you stupid Monitor and
- 4:28it offered less than 50% of what he
- 4:30offered he agreed to the bot that's
- 4:32[ __ ] go no that's not what supposed

- 4:34not supposed to I hope he's not too
- 4:37mad dude he's going to beat your ass the
- 4:39seller was late to our meeting which

- 5:04was wondering why you accepted such an
- 5:06aggressive message from my mom oh no I I
- 5:10I didn't feel that way what do you mean

- 5:14in that flickering mess that you call a
- 5:15monitor you didn't what do you mean you
- 5:17didn't yeah you said like 20 bucks yep
- 5:19thank you man I appreciate it I had
- 5:20secured the monitor but I couldn't get
- 5:22rid of a nagging feeling dude I feel
- 5:24kind of bad
- 5:26why that I didn't get it for less money
- 5:29wo
- 5:31[Music]
- 5:34wow nice feet
- 5:36broe the bot works first try nothing I
- 5:39make ever works first try why would you
- 5:41say that why would you say
- 5:44[Music]
- 5:48that oh hey guys didn't see you there
- 5:51come on let me catch up on uh what's
- 5:53been happening it all started right here
- 5:54when I sat down to buy the second thing
- 5:56from Facebook oh your account has been
- 5:57banned go [ __ ] yourself idiot was all
- 5:59right I thought this was going to happen
- 6:01I have multiple accounts let's try the
- 6:02next account and the next account and
- 6:04the next account every single one has
- 6:05been banned so I contacted my cousin in
- 6:08Pakistan he gave me the link to a site
- 6:11where I can just buy Facebook accounts
- 6:13then I had 50 Pakistani Facebook
- 6:14accounts and they weren't getting banned
- 6:15but then they couldn't message anyone
- 6:17they get prompted for phone number
- 6:18verification because Facebook doesn't
- 6:20trust them so I do the next logical
- 6:21thing we're going to Best Buy prepaid
- 6:22SIM cards baby oops you're about 20
- 6:24years too late prepaid sim card
- 6:26companies recycle phone numbers so every
- 6:28single one has already been use to make
- 6:30a Facebook account I've become desperate
- 6:31I need better quality accounts so I go
- 6:34on gry market account forums and finally
- 6:36I find legitimate looking accounts and
- 6:38you know what happens they still get
- 6:39banned why why I start to think why I
- 6:41got good accounts I got my software
- 6:43written I'm using a VPN oh maybe it's
- 6:46the VPN so I start researching normally
- 6:48when they log into Facebook everyone has
- 6:49a different IP address but people using
- 6:51a VPN all look like they're coming from
- 6:53the same IP address I am massively
- 6:55simplifying so 100,000 requests from the
- 6:57same place make it pretty obvious that
- 6:58that IP address is a VPN companies will
- 7:00keep a big list of these addresses
- 7:02they're called known proxy lists so
- 7:04Facebook trusts these accounts less well
- 7:05then how did I get around this if you
- 7:07guessed I went back to the store to buy
- 7:09more SIM cards so I can use some like
- 7:10little Wi-Fi hotspots then you are
- 7:12probably a scammer but you are you're
- 7:14right and it kind of works now I had to
- 7:15do a couple more things to get it fully
- 7:16functional but if I say those things
- 7:18YouTube will get mad at me so I'll put
- 7:19them on patreon instead good plug classy
- 7:21plug give me your money with the bot
- 7:23done there's only really one responsible
- 7:25thing left to do and that's to Gaslight
- 7:28some elderly people on Facebook
- 7:31[Music]
- 7:32Marketplace no time no time ignore it
- 7:35ignore it IGN it ignore it buying don't
- 7:38worry about it
- 7:41okay five bucks huh don't make me laugh
- 7:44hello hey how you going nice to meet oh

- 8:34time actually it's over the course of 24
- 8:36hours to make it not arise suspicion let
- 8:37me read you some of my favorite messages
- 8:39that the Bots have sent so far hey there
- 8:42I should mention that I've given each
- 8:43bot a different personality by just
- 8:45tweaking the chat GPT prompt hey there
- 8:47yeah I'm super interested in your
- 8:49Lincoln Electric MIG welder since I'm
- 8:51saving up for an epic trip to Japan I
- 8:53was wondering if you'd accept $65 for it
- 8:56AR we
- 8:57got what the [ __ ] I said that [ __ ] to a
- 9:00real person hey there I saw you're
- 9:02listing for the ratcheting wrenches my
- 9:04college textbook fees have been really
- 9:05breaking the bank and my spirit would
- 9:07you maybe consider selling them for
- 9:09$15 all right I'm over it this stuff is
- 9:12cool but remember I want to buy a
- 9:14motorcycle so let's see which ones we
- 9:16can afford oh none of them cuz I blew
- 9:19the entire Budget on Pakistani Facebook
- 9:21account seriously though I want
- 9:22something cheap like a fixer upper you
- 9:24know it's something I can use all these
- 9:25tools I just bought Boom come full
- 9:27circle call back previously in the video
- 9:29Boom YouTube video good also those
- 9:31accounts were really expensive so
- 9:33nothing too nice like this it's cool but
- 9:36this guy is a little too honestly it's
- 9:37pretty sweet but I don't think there's
- 9:39anything wrong with it that's kind of
- 9:40cool it's only $1,000 oh wait this is
- 9:42not even a
- 9:44well this is it I'm sending the final
- 9:46message for the motorcycle I've
- 9:48gaslighted this person with every bot
- 9:50that I have and uh it's time for me to
- 9:51message him I'm
- 9:55nervous yes yes yes yes yes God damn
- 9:59what the
- 10:04[ __ ] anyways I got the motorcycle
- 10:07today's a day today's a day cuz my
- 10:10tailgate one of the cables is broken
- 10:14gate yeah on our way to finally pick up
- 10:16the motorcycle oh wow she's beautiful
- 10:19hello oh it looks great you said it it
- 10:21runs fine well it has in a long time
- 10:24don't worry I didn't understand that
- 10:26either cuz most of the audio from this
- 10:27is completely useless which is fine it's
- 10:30fine what ended up happening is I closed
- 10:32the deal secured the bike and all that
- 10:33really matters is that the motorcycle
- 10:35looks [ __ ] sick oh man okay so it's
- 10:38not legally or technically a motorcycle
- 10:40but you guys are missing the point what
- 10:41you should be asking is how much money
- 10:43did the bot save me on this 20-year-old
- 10:45broken down not running moped I got this
- 10:47bad boy for 15% off and if you remember
- 10:50the average person gets 11.6% off
- 10:53meaning the bot saved me
- 10:54$34 off the purchase of this ,000
- 10:57vehicle let's [ __ ] go let's [ __ ]
- 10:59go and yes I did spend $6 or $700 on
- 11:03Pakistani Facebook accounts to make the
- 11:04bot run and no the moped does not run
- 11:08yet so I'm pretty good at computers and
- 11:10electronics type of stuff but engines
- 11:11have always just been like a little bit
- 11:13witchcraft type [ __ ] so I don't know
- 11:15what's wrong with it immediately it
- 11:16makes a noise like the starter motor
- 11:18makes a noise but the engine just
- 11:19doesn't start but I only imagine it
- 11:20could be like the oil there's a lot of
- 11:22metal on metal contact in an engine and
- 11:24the oil helps to cut down on the
- 11:25friction between the parts if someone
- 11:26changes their oil often it means they
- 11:28take good care of the mopz attension
- 11:30it's it's Italian that means it's the
- 11:32original filter this thing's 15 years
- 11:34old that's not great but let's try nope
- 11:37it was not the oil it could be the
- 11:39carburetor bad carburetors are like a
- 11:40mythical scary thing but they're
- 11:42actually just like a glorified spray
- 11:43bottle see Gasoline by itself isn't all
- 11:45that powerful but when you mix it with
- 11:46air by turning it into a Mist that's
- 11:48what happens in your engine and that's
- 11:49really all this little [ __ ] does so
- 11:51I'm just going to watch a YouTube video
- 11:52on how to clean it kind of like how I'm
- 11:53watching a YouTube video right now about
- 11:55carburetors so I can teach you guys how
- 11:56carburetors work also the carburetor was
- 11:58not the problem it could be the spark
- 12:00plug it does what the name is it's just
- 12:02a spark and it lights that gas on fire
- 12:04sometimes they stop sparking but this
- 12:05one Sparks so this definitely won't be
- 12:06what fixes it oh oh
- 12:10oh yeah yeah I'm the [ __ ] best
- 12:14sometimes it you don't even have to know
- 12:16what fixes something you know you just
- 12:17take it apart put it back together and
- 12:18then it it works again and sometimes you
- 12:20weld truck nuts to your moped to justify
- 12:22buying a welder it's just how life
- 12:25is so I think we can conclude that the
- 12:27ball was a success it's sa me 34
- 12:29on this bad boy and all we had to do was
- 12:31systematically Gaslight a bunch of
- 12:32people on Facebook marketplace now I did
- 12:34end up telling them about the Bots those
- 12:35were all me were you yeah it was all us
- 12:38on like separate accounts four five
- 12:40maybe Were Us it was like a bot it was
- 12:42like a bot yeah and I ended up paying
- 12:44them the full original asking price for
- 12:46what they were selling cuz I felt bad
- 12:47but I just wanted to see if it would
- 12:48work and it did and it saved me $34
- 12:57[Music]
- 13:01thanks for watching if you enjoyed the
- 13:02video uh let it simmer in your brain and
- 13:04your subconscious for the next couple
- 13:06days if you didn't then don't do that if
- 13:08you like the shirt I've been wearing my
- 13:10girlfriend made it and I'm selling it
- 13:11now and my girlfriend says if I sell
- 13:13enough I could win a personal pan pizza
- 13:15from Pizza Hut so please it's a really
- 13:17nice high quality Hawaiian shirt it's
- 13:18like oh [ __ ] high quality Hawaiian shirt
- 13:20it's got a quirky little spam be pattern
- 13:22on it it's really nice so if you're
- 13:23interested you can go here and go to
- 13:24this website if you want to buy it and
- 13:26uh yeah that's it thanks for watching
- 13:27I'll see you guys in um in 2 seconds for
- 13:29an ad time wow there's something in the
- 13:31oil it's a nordvpn ad you know what a
- 13:34VPN is let's not do that again but Nord
- 13:36offers a lot of stuff outside of its VPN
- 13:38service it's part of the reason I wanted
- 13:39this as a sponsor do you remember when I
- 13:41bought all those SIM cards so I could
- 13:42use their IP addresses after I did that
- 13:43I found out that Nord has a service
- 13:45called dedicated IP addresses guess what
- 13:47that does they give you a unique IP
- 13:49address that only you use which means
- 13:50it's not unnown proxy list which means
- 13:52websites can't detect that you're using
- 13:54a VPN I tried it with a bot and it just
- 13:55[ __ ] worked so I would have not had
- 13:57to buy 100 SIM cards which I thought was
- 13:59pretty cool like like like the value
- 14:00proposition of a VPN is like it keeps
- 14:02you safe right but most sites use SSL
- 14:04these days so traffic is generally
- 14:05pretty safe would not a lot of people
- 14:06think about our malicious websites
- 14:08themselves which is where a feature like
- 14:09nordvpn's threat protection Pro comes in
- 14:12it's got a malware scanner built in it
- 14:13deletes tracking cookies but honestly
- 14:15the most useful feature is that it can
- 14:16prevent fishing scams using a big ass
- 14:18database of known fishing links it can
- 14:20help prevent you from getting your
- 14:21information fished which is incredibly
- 14:22important cuz they they get my ass
- 14:24sometimes I get an email it says my
- 14:26Amazon package has not been delivered I
- 14:27think [ __ ] monkey brain click the
- 14:29link normally the biggest threat to our
- 14:30online security is is ourselves being
- 14:32stupid and features like Nord threat
- 14:34protection help to protect that so if
- 14:36you're interested go to nordvpn.com
- 14:37Reeves to get you 4 months free off a
- 14:402-year plan it's pretty risk free with a
- 14:4130-day money back guarantee I think and
- 14:43thank you to nordvpn for helping us
- 14:44support the
- 14:45[Music]
- 14:47channel it's broken again
