Mufti Menk – My Friend’s Story

00:00:01 --> 00:00:03

			I supposedly phoned him in the middle of
		

00:00:03 --> 00:00:04

			the night and told him I was stuck
		

00:00:04 --> 00:00:05

			in a certain country, and I needed money
		

00:00:05 --> 00:00:06

			urgently.
		

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

			And he said how are you? That person
		

00:00:09 --> 00:00:10

			asked that other person how are you? With
		

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

			the names of his family because I know
		

00:00:12 --> 00:00:14

			that man with the names of his family
		

00:00:14 --> 00:00:15

			and so so so I phoned him late
		

00:00:15 --> 00:00:17

			at night. Look. I'm stuck. I really need
		

00:00:17 --> 00:00:19

			your help. Please, this this this whatever whatever.
		

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21

			So he phoned his friend who's also a
		

00:00:21 --> 00:00:23

			friend of mine. Said, hey. You know, Sheikh
		

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

			is stuck. He needs our help very urgently
		

00:00:25 --> 00:00:26

			and what what? He said, okay. That guy
		

00:00:26 --> 00:00:28

			was getting ready. In the middle of the
		

00:00:28 --> 00:00:30

			night, he decided to phone me. He phoned
		

00:00:30 --> 00:00:32

			me. Luckily, I answered the phone because of
		

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

			who he is to me.
		

00:00:33 --> 00:00:35

			He said, are you okay? I said, yeah.
		

00:00:35 --> 00:00:36

			I'm sleeping. What's the problem? He said, didn't
		

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37

			you just phone so and so now? I
		

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39

			said, no. I didn't. He said, Aisha
		

00:00:40 --> 00:00:42

			wallahi. That friend's name is Salim. He said,
		

00:00:44 --> 00:00:47

			wallahi I heard sheikh wallahi I heard him
		

00:00:47 --> 00:00:49

			his voice he asked me about my family
		

00:00:49 --> 00:00:50

			how would he know I said
		

00:00:51 --> 00:00:53

			it was fake. He said, how? He said,
		

00:00:53 --> 00:00:55

			when I found out that there is now
		

00:00:55 --> 00:00:57

			technology where you can if you have the
		

00:00:57 --> 00:00:59

			voice notes of a person, you can actually
		

00:00:59 --> 00:01:02

			just have. You can go through your your
		

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

			voice. You you are talking to that thing
		

00:01:04 --> 00:01:06

			and the the output voice is according to
		

00:01:06 --> 00:01:09

			the codes of whatever you have programmed that.
		

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11

			So I can make you you can make
		

00:01:11 --> 00:01:12

			me or him or anyone say something they
		

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

			didn't even say.
		

00:01:15 --> 00:01:17

			And he, wallahi, he swears up to this
		

00:01:17 --> 00:01:18

			day
		

00:01:18 --> 00:01:20

			that something is wrong. Are you sure you
		

00:01:20 --> 00:01:21

			didn't play the play a prank on me?
		

00:01:21 --> 00:01:23

			I said no I wouldn't. Why would I?
		

00:01:24 --> 00:01:26

			But you know those scams where they say
		

00:01:26 --> 00:01:27

			I'm stuck stuck. Please send $500
		

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

			or
		

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

			$2,000, please urgently. I need it here, there.
		

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

			I'm in Paris or wherever else and said,
		

00:01:32 --> 00:01:33

			those are scams.
		

00:01:33 --> 00:01:35

			Some people have been caught in those scams,
		

00:01:36 --> 00:01:37

			And they know your contact. They know the
		

00:01:37 --> 00:01:39

			names. They don't think it's how,
		

00:01:39 --> 00:01:41

			They must be tapping or whatever.
