And I have a similar question, but more along the lines of where do they get the streamers' info?
It is VERY illegal, and you could face jail time for trying it. This is all the information I am willing to give on it. Please never consider doing this as it only causes a hassle for the streamer who is just trying to entertain you and make a living.
My question still stands though. Where does the info come from? I doubt these streamers just give out their address to randoms.
Once the adress if known they use various methods to use their phone number and call the police with various acusations.
The police is getting a lot of these fakes acusations so it needs to pass some filtering before being considered an actual call.
Risks are high and benefits from doing it are close to none.
You can't bragg about doing it because you will serve time or pay a huge fine. You will intrreupt the stream for few minutes and you'll earn nothing for that.
You will most likely help that streamer get more public because the video will get in news feed on youtube and compilations will start flying about that.
