I always wonder if that channel is real or fake. I swear I've heard the same scammer more than once and I don't see why the scammers wouldn't check to see if they're running in a VM as soon as they get remote access.

After watching a few of these, I think many of the scammers are not very tech savvy, but are simply following directions they have been given. Some of them are very easily fooled by Kitboga's tricks.

He's hiding the most obvious signs that it's a virtual machine to some degree. The scammers that in 99% of the cases fail to change a number with the browser developer tools because he added an invisible div on top of his fake bank page are just too incompetent to check for a VM, though some do or at least try to. Kitboga specifically also livestreams on Twitch: https://twitch.tv/kitboga for hours at a time, multiple days a week. I see don't really see a chance that's faked.
