Active Bitcoin/Etherium Scam on YouTube Using SpaceX Inspiration4 Mission
There's a Bitcoin/Etherium "giveaway" scam happening on Youtube right now using SpaceX's Inspiration4 mission as a hook.
Scammer "live" streams: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=spacex%27s+all-civilian+inspiration4
Rules: "To participate you just need to send from 0,1 BTC to 100 BTC to the contribution address and we will immediately send you back 0,3 BTC to 300 BTC (x3) to the address you sent it from. "
I'll give them an 7 out of 10 for sophistication. They're running real feeds picture-in-picture inside a frame with their "giveaway" scam site information.
- Trias11 5y agoThis is happening in relation to many well-known people and leaders. 1. Scammers create YouTube channel named after the brand with logo of the brand or person so it looks authentic. 2. Scammers replaying recent video with that person showing link to elon-musk-offer.com - or whatever - telling to send N of crypto to receive Nx2 cryptos back. The disgusting part of it is that Youtube is not acting to remove these scams fast enough even though people clearly reporting this. In fact i found about these scams because Youtube promoted this scam to me as "relevant content"
