Ashton Bingham and Art Kulik, both with backgrounds in film and acting, established Trilogy Media Inc in 2016. Their initial work included sketch comedy and short-form entertainment. Over time, their focus shifted towards online vigilantism, specifically targeting scams and fraudulent activities. A notable turning point occurred in 2016 when they addressed IRS Robocall Scammers, a group pretending to be the IRS to obtain personal information. Their video exposing these scammers garnered millions of views within 24 hours, marking a significant milestone in their career progression and establishing their reputation as ‘YouTube’s favorite scam-busting duo.’ This success solidified their mission to alert the public to various forms of fraud through comedic and informative videos.
Trilogy Media has been recognized across various media platforms, including The Dr. Oz Show, ABC’s The Briefing Room, CBS KCAL, Fox 11 News, Good Morning San Diego, and CBS News Memphis. Their content involves using voice changers and false identities to engage with scammers, primarily those based in India, with the aim of wasting scammers’ time and preventing potential victims from falling prey to their schemes. In addition to general scam awareness, they developed the series ‘Trilogy vs. Predator,’ which investigates individuals attempting to exploit minors online, often collaborating with law enforcement and child protection organizations. This initiative highlights their commitment to a broader scope of online safety and intervention.
In 2022, Trilogy Media embarked on a collaborative project with Scammer Payback, creating the ‘People’s Call Center.’ This public initiative was designed to further raise awareness of online fraud. Their efforts earned them a Streamy Award in 2022 for Collaboration, shared with Mark Rober and Jim Browning, acknowledging their impact in the digital space. In 2025, in partnership with Scammer Payback, they contributed to the dismantling of an alleged money mule operation in California for scam call centers run by Chinese nationals, an achievement that highlights their practical influence in combating real-world criminal operations. Trilogy Media continues its mission to entertain, spread positivity, and raise awareness about scams.
