Why I Made Those Videos and What I Gained from Gambling

[00:03] on the page for a while now, specifically this gambling-related account. I even wrote a script, but it's taking time. I decided to go live by writing a script, setting up a location, and all that, but it's taking too long. This is n't my line of work, and I'm not making a quick buck like some

[00:17] people are. A lot of things happened, not just one thing. I wanted to go live and talk, not just one thing. I wanted to go live and talk, but I kept coming back. The script was ready, and about 10 days ago, one of the guys who used to work in this gambling business got

[00:31] cancer. His name was Abu El Donya, I think. I apologize for looking so disheveled at work, and I haven't slept in days. So, me and the others disagreed about going live. He told me not to gloat or anything like that.

[00:44] I'm not going to gloat; I'm going to share a lesson someone has learned. This is one of the people who worked in the field of promoting gambling. I mean, Mohsen and Khaled and the like, they would make posts and try to get people to get into online gambling or betting, and they'd lose so they could

[00:58] take a percentage from it. So, when Mohsen and Khaled would post something on Facebook, someone would go and promote it or fund it so it would reach a large audience. This guy was one of them, and I'm group and insult us because they would come to the group to talk and they would come and insult us even

[01:13] though we didn't harm anyone, we were just raising awareness. So, he treats you like you're cutting off his livelihood, so when you cut off his income, you upset him. He's going to scam people and you're going to try to raise awareness about those being scammed, so you're upset. So they would come and insult you, saying things like, "No one

[01:27] chooses their fate," and stuff like that. But that's not my point right now. My point is that I want to clarify a few things. Regarding the videos I made, many people saw them, learned from them, and benefited from them, but no one shared the post or anything. Then there are those charismatic people

[01:43] who come in asking how I got involved in this whole thing. Someone I meet at started when I was working normally and under a lot of pressure. A friend of mine needed money, so I sent a client to him and told him to take the money and keep it with me. Then, God decreed

[01:58] that I would have surgery. After the surgery, the people with me, thank God, finished the work I was working on. I decided then that I would take some time to rest and recover from the surgery. I called my friend and told him I would send him the money if he had everything he needed. He said he didn't have the money right

[02:10] He said he didn't have the money right now, and I saw his difficult situation. I discovered he had lost it, along with a large sum he had saved. His financial situation is like all of ours, a moderate one. I told him it was okay, I'd take care of it. I'll try to figure something out and come back to you. I sat

[02:26] with him for a while, we talked about this movie and what happened, and I understood from him. When I understood, I discovered that he'd been scammed. It's not about him gambling, because the problem is that people think, " Oh, he was forced to gamble." No one forced him to gamble, and that's what's keeping

[02:40] people quiet. That's what's keeping people from talking about how he got scammed. Someone posted on Facebook, "This is a job that will make you a million in three or four days, or even two hours, while you're sitting in bed," with funding and a well-planned scam. It's not just that he gambled and that's the end of it. There were several people involved,

[02:55] of course, some young and some older. We got together and decided to do something. As part of the operation, I was mostly at home,

[03:07] time on something useless, I'll waste it on this." And God inspired me to... I was wasting my time on this topic and tried to follow up. I realized I could expose something because people aren't talking. Just because I saw something wrong doesn't mean I shouldn't speak up. It's about changing what's wrong, and these people are

[03:23] collecting money in a shady way. I feel sorry for my friend when these people scam someone, and this scam is increasing and spreading. Someone takes money in an unethical way and spends it, and at the same time, the victim won't stay silent. This has happened many times; the victim might commit suicide, their life will be ruined, they might lose something,

[03:37] happened many times; the victim might commit suicide, their life will be ruined, they might lose something, like their education or their like their education or their future career or management will be ruined. I realized I could hold them accountable, so I started making the first video. Of course,

[03:49] the video is well-made, so I'm exposing their secrets. Everyone who spoke about this before just talked nonsense, like I'm doing now. I wrote a script, prepared the data, and someone produced it. And the matter proceeded in

[04:02] this direction. When they realized the issue was starting to have an impact, because we also cleverly entered the fray, we created a Telegram group and started gathering the losers on it. If you used to join and speak up, for example, or say, "Guys, these people are scammers," you'd get blocked. And then, no one would even see you.

[04:15] Once the group was created, we started gathering people on it. We started funding it on Facebook. We started to have an impact. It might seem to you that the issue is more complex, but the these 200 or 300 people, each one who enters this path takes everything they need, then comes back

[04:29] empty-handed. They go back to commit suicide, then go back to ruining their lives, their education, and their families. I'm not saying lives, their education, and their families. I'm not saying there are people who sell their honor and... I mean, we've seen this matter, I'll go along with what everyone else is saying because what bothers me is

[04:44] that the people who benefited from this don't talk about it. They just come to see how they can benefit from the how they can benefit from the discussion. Then there are the charismatic people, the know-it-alls, who come to talk and give their opinions, like, "What

[04:56] you gain? What did you do?" I had surgery, and for me, it was free. I was sitting around with internet access, just like I am now, rambling on and on. I made a video and uploaded it, and I saw that people started interacting with it. People were praying for us, saying "May God bless

[05:13] People were praying for us, saying "May God bless you," and giving us good feedback. And again, I'm not the type to want attention because I didn't want anything from this. This proves that want anything from this. This proves that I'm at, say, 7, 25, or we have 7, 25. So, there are people who have

[05:25] done anything with it. I benefited from this whole thing; on the contrary, thanks to God, I'm one of the people who most influenced this conversation. We created a place for people to gather and talk, to the point that all our supporters would come in and insult us, and we received threats telling us to stop.

[05:39] Many music pages were created for us, but it didn't bother us because we saw them as just a bunch of kids, and bother us because we saw them as just a bunch of kids, and the project would continue anyway. We did it for God's sake, so whoever had free time helped, and thank God, there were more than enough people. I'm grateful, of course, to the people who are still

[05:52] helping after I made the first video and created the group and started gathering people on it. They started threatening him, and I found that this threat would actually benefit me. If I made another video, I'd confirm to these people that they're scammers and that they're only after their own interests. The real disaster is that he's losing money. He has two

[06:06] problems: first, he's losing money, and that money goes down the wrong path. that filth. We're hearing about it now, and on the other hand, the money they take goes to fund new scams and defraud new people, and the cycle continues, and nobody

[06:19] says a word. Whoever loses gets out of it like they've been caught red- handed and runs away, meaning they do n't say anything. On the other hand, they continue to scam, and nobody stops them. Even those who speak up, they speak up for what? Most of the people I saw who spoke up, most of them, I mean, they spoke up for what?

[06:33] Nobody gathered people together. We gathered people and started to educate them and tell them how this is a scam. What's the problem? We didn't want any publicity from this conversation, and we didn't want anything other than to do this for the sake of God and to help people. What was happening was that some people came in to thank us,

[06:46] and we had a strong impact on the issue, to the point that they came in and threatened us. I documented this threat in a video on working until the moment when We were raising awareness on the group, and they couldn't find anything to hold against us. Some people even came in asking, "What's your goal?" They did

[07:01] n't understand, like, "What's your goal? This scammer doesn't understand why you're doing this. He sees you as aimless." He's funding posts and recruiting people to scam, making money and keeping the operation going. As for me, I'm not gaining anything. What's the problem, man? The

[07:17] people who lose money go from someone hoping to make a million to someone hoping to make a million, then to someone who loses and loses until they go bankrupt. Then their lives are ruined. After that, they either join the army, commit suicide, or solve a major problem in their lives. Our only goal was raising

[07:32] awareness, nothing more. We didn't have any other objective than to educate people. So everything was in voice messages on Telegram, 100 pieces of stupid content that someone could have exploited if they wanted to create a show and make money from. After these videos, I don't think anyone has said anything

[07:44] like what we said in the group or in the videos themselves. In these two videos, we offered a solution to this problem years ago. We said to shut down the electronic wallets for these apps; the issue would be simple, it would disappear.

[07:56] But I don't know why this idea wasn't heeded. I didn't have time to continue; I was busy with my work. As we said, making videos isn't my main job, and I'm not using it as a way to make money. I was busy The problem is that I keep encountering the same old question: " Why did you do that? What do you

[08:11] gain? What did you win?" and so on. So what I'm trying to say is that we can't stay silent about something like this. Because something like this is dangerous. When someone loses money gambling and their property is destroyed, they don't think about going to the desert or living in a cave. They're not going to live with you.

[08:26] Even in your area, someone you know might steal from you, for example, by making you leave your place and walk away, then steal from you or harm you from a distance. It doesn't have to be direct. And the con artist who made the money is happy with what he made, and later he'll find another

[08:42] way to scam you, and you might get in his way, or he might develop a way to collect money illegally, and you'll end up in his path. So the idea is that we're raising awareness. Why is speaking the truth becoming something strange

[08:54] working on TikTok, the ones who are involved in the current conversation, most of what they're saying is nonsense. Most of what they're saying is paid for because, for example, when we used to see posts about gambling and click on them, we'd seen this kind of stuff more than once, so we saw the rhythm

[09:08] this kind of stuff more than once, so we saw the rhythm they're working with. So, to summarize what was said, to make the point clear, why did I bring up the cancer guy? Because when this guy posted on Facebook, he said, "Nobody chooses." His fate and I prayed,

[09:21] chooses." His fate and I prayed, and it wasn't in my hands, and all this nonsense, a lot of comments coming in praying for him from those sniffing kids, most of them, I mean, they're just praying for him, they support each other, they're behind each other and most of them, I mean, they're just praying for him, they support each other, they're behind each other and

[09:34] nobody talks, how did I get into this? I got into it by chance, through the fact that I had an operation, a friend of mine lost, and I got in and lost how much, I lost no more than 400 or 500 pounds or 300 or 400 pounds, something like that, and I got in to put the money in to understand, because you have to play, to try, to understand

[09:48] the point of the talk, what did I do, why did I say that? As a way of forbidding what is wrong, because, as we said, for example, it's unacceptable for homosexuality to be prevalent. Imagine the people of Lot working around you, engaging in

[10:00] Lot working around you, engaging in such acts. Their numbers will increase, and when they increase, the problem will such acts. Their numbers will increase, and when they increase, the problem will become more widespread. I also mentioned this "dirty money" issue on my Telegram channel a while ago.

[10:13] This "dirty money" isn't printed by the bank. When the bank prints money, it doesn't differentiate between, say, one million pounds and then say, "This million pounds is legitimate money" or "This million pounds is illicit money." It's the same amount; we all deal with it. That's why money laundering happens. Let's say the total capital

[10:28] circulating in Egypt is 10 million pounds, and 5 million goes through illicit channels. 5 million goes through illicit channels.

[10:42] illicit channels? They then become laundered. Money, so someone will go and put money in their place and lose money, so things will get more expensive for you. The issue is like the butterfly effect, as I said on my Telegram channel before, that the smallest event that

[10:56] happens has to affect you. For example, Corona happened in a place you couldn't even see, and we spent a whole year locked down, and it affected the whole economy. The Russia-Ukraine war, the Iran-Israel war, you understand? It started

[11:08] Russia-Ukraine war, the Iran-Israel war, you understand? It started with the Hamas-Israel war. So the issue itself is that it starts small and grows. The disaster in this matter is that it's hidden, so I entered this conversation, and if anyone doubts what I'm saying, I'm speaking publicly and I don't delete comments, and I let things run wild, even though they're really tough, and

[11:24] publicly and I don't delete comments, and I let things run wild, even though they're really tough, and cancer is one of the people who used to come in and insult, and he came in so brazenly, and we don't talk about them coming into my Telegram, into the group, into my Telegram channel,

[11:38] and doing The reactions are the opposite of what I said, that my words are wrong. We were making angry reactions on their posts, and they would come to us and make wrong reactions. I was speaking I was speaking well and speaking the truth, and they would come and make

[11:51] wrong reactions, even though I had the reactions enabled on their groups. The reactions are disabled, which are the their groups. The reactions are disabled, which are the emojis. The point is, anyone who knows anything wrong about me, the page is there, and they can make a video, and I will publish it for them myself. Anyone I told to

[12:04] gamble or followed down a certain path, I'm just saying this because some people thought I was because some people thought I was profiting from this. When I started talking, I told you that someone who goes from being greedy to hopeful, then starts losing, then becomes bankrupt, then addicted, then their

[12:18] situation is destroyed. So, this turns into one of two things: either they commit a disaster, like stealing, for example, or committing suicide, or they ruin their children or their family, or someone recruits them and tells them, "Come here."

[12:30] Your profit is bringing me new victims. Someone might come along and make a promo code and join. Many people have entered this path this way. After they've acquired some money, someone recruited them and said, " Come get a promo code and work with us." I myself receive this message more than five or six times a week. Someone

[12:45] messages me saying, "Can you work with us? Your group and all that." Can you imagine? This is someone who's completely broke. They come and go. Not everyone is like that. So, this is because we're forbidding what's wrong, because it will affect us, as we said. And so that when we're questioned, we can't say, "

[12:59] We stayed silent when we could have done something, thank God." If anyone knows I've taken a penny from this, let them confront me. I mean, the effort that went into the videos. Even the people I work with tell me to jump on the bandwagon and ride the wave. And just like everyone else did, some even made it to a

[13:15] TV channel and a B- roll and all that. But that's not my principle. My principle is that I'm here to benefit people, and I entered this field for God's sake, so I entered it for God's sake, and that's the end of it for me. I have some advice; if you want to hear it from me, listen. If you don't want to hear it from me, that's fine. I'm not a

[13:27] censor of anyone. We want to encourage people who are doing something good. Let's be like those who listen to advice and follow the best of it. When you hear someone talking about something good, thank them first for what they said, and then tell them, as advice, that no one, thank God, recruited me

[13:40] or anything. But I see content that no one

[13:56] No, they write a lot of fake comments, and maybe some insulting comments and some supportive comments, so they create two opinions, and then someone comes in and supports one opinion. A guy comes in and encourages this opinion, wanting to see how people react. People have developed a social media presence in the comments, I don't know

[14:10] why, especially with useful content. They don't comment, but if no one else does, they start commenting on a post or something. No one is afraid to comment because what they say will be seen, so they create a crowd in the comments. You know when you're on the metro, for example, and

[14:23] you see a vendor coming in, and someone else coming in before him? Then, after he does his thing, he buys something and encourages others to buy from him. That's the same thing, the same beautiful principle they follow. So that's the first thing. Secondly, I want to say something to our younger brothers, the

[14:38] young people who are just starting out: don't think it's all about money. Because if you told that guy who got cancer he could go back in time and give up the money and the cancer, he'd say yes. And I've said before that sustenance is something God holds in His hands. Nobody knows where their livelihood lies tomorrow

[14:51] or how the world works. The most important thing is when you work in a field that's gradual and sustainable. For example, if you work as a junior accountant in an office or a lawyer in an office, you'll learn, you'll grow, and then you'll open your own office.

[15:03] But if you take the "bad path," for example, and then what? And then you continue down the "bad path"—and there are many examples—you'll be content with that. You'll put yourself on the "bad path," and then you'll marry into it, and your path," and then you'll marry into it, and your children will be raised in it, and your life will be within

[15:20] that society. You'll interact with it, and you'll benefit from it, and so on. I see, for example, X-rated people who are famous and have money, and I see, for example, X-rated people who are famous and have money, and life is very good for them, but they have a son or daughter who is struggling. On the other hand, I see a respectable employee who lived a good life, and God blessed him, and he didn't complain to

[15:34] respectable employee who lived a good life, and God blessed him, and he didn't complain to anyone, and he raised his children—all the good things have to be said—even though he has problems in his life. Don't think that people with money don't have problems. People who... Having money is what most people struggle with. When you

[15:46] have 1000 pounds, you worry about the 1000 pounds and live at the 1000-pound level. When you have a million, you live at the million level and worry about making that million more to reach that level. worry about making that million more to reach that level.

[15:59] strive to do something that will grow with you. When you're 30, 40, or 50, you'll be When you're 30, 40, or 50, you'll be continuing, and continuing with honor, with your family and children proud of you. You'll be able to see the good you've done in your life, or the benefit you've brought to others.

[16:13] On the other hand, look at the trap that was set on TikTok and the TikTokers who turned it into a money-making scheme and participated who turned it into a money-making scheme and participated in shady dealings. God won't let this go unpunished. There are two

[16:27] kinds of sin: a sin between you and God, which He will hold you accountable for, and a sin for which He will forgive you. God willing, our Lord is Forgiving and Merciful. A sin is between you and your fellow human being. For example, if you wronged me or I wronged you, we will both stand before God and settle accounts with each other. God Almighty, in His mercy and justice, will not

[16:43] say to you, "No, I have forgiven you for the sin of Ahmed." For example, He will say to me, "Ahmed has taken his share from you." Look at the many people around us, and look at those who are doing wrong. Don't follow them. The number of wrongdoers is obvious, but we are 100 million. If you counted them,

[16:59] you would find that there are perhaps 100,000 out of a million. That's a lot. Some people are working hard, and some are enduring a lot. So let's not make this our principle, because it's a cycle. Today you're in it, tomorrow I 'll be in it. We're all standing in line. You're lashing out at the person in front of you, and everyone is

[17:13] lashing out back at you. That backstabbing will come back to you in the end, and we all... We're living on the same level, and what I want to achieve is what made me pursue this and make this video. I live with these people in this same beautiful community, so this will come back to me. So,

[17:28] beautiful community, so this will come back to me. So, my dear Yasser, I made this video because people were getting offended, asking why I did this. I left this post on

[17:43] my page, regardless of the fact that only a few people see it. I few people see it. I the effort that went into it, and the whole thing is clear and obvious, and it doesn't seem like I stole anything or

[17:59] made millions from this. They ask me why I got involved, how much I made, how much I earned, and how much I lost. Be one of those who listen to advice and follow it. That's the advice I wanted to give: look at the other side of the coin that was opened.

[18:13] Ahmed Hassan and Zeinab, or Shady, or that guy Mohamed who sells koshari, or... there are many more. On the other hand, you'll find many successful examples, but they're not visible. There are people living well, and you'll find those who live well are those who uphold the values ​​of their society and

[18:29] uphold the values ​​of their society and protect themselves. Because if it becomes a jungle, each other's throats. For example, the inflation we experienced made everyone try to outdo each other, but at the same time, we're living at a lower level. We earn more and live better, but we're living at a

[18:45] lower level than we should. Before you look at these people, remember they're like balloons that burst, and after they burst, they get lost. The problem is, once you go down a wrong path, you can't get back. There's no turning back. You lose

[18:58] that path or... well, the situation is a bit complicated. So, if anyone feels I've misled them or negatively influenced them, write to me in this comment or take this video and do

[19:11] this comment or take this video and do something about it and claim I've misled them.
