Mr.Balloon 2.0 - Invidious

Adressing the recent event: On 1/4/23 my channel gmail was hacked by a Hacker. In 2 minutes, the thief manage to bypass my 2-vertification steps, and fully took control over my entire channel. I was unable to recover my account, as they changed the password and my vertification. They posted 2 live streams using Elon Musk related video, with a link that lead to a crypto scam website using Elon’s Brand name. I confront these scumbag going to their link to ask, and they blatantly admitted hacking my account. The next day, my entire Youtube Channel got terminated, watching my entire effort gone in a single day nearly broke me. I tried many IT support and Cybersecurity specialists to help but non of them willing to, except for Best Buy customer geek. Their help was minimal but I still appreciate, as I managed to recover my account by sending my recover email code. I have to send two appeal, in order to restore my channel.

Note: I am one of many unfortunate victim suffer from this cyberthreat. Since these scammer targeted Youtubers with over 10K subs. This is still an ongoing cyber threat, because you can search “Tesla Live Hack” to see these hack channel’s video. I did not click any suspicious link, since I haven’t use this account for about 3 weeks and this is a sudden attack. It is unforgivable for Youtube to allow these attack to continue until right now without acknowledgment. And it is truely frightening, how a hacker can penetrate your security.
