This is what I saw yesterday in beginner and help (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5247750.msg54412441#msg54412441) I have thought maybe these lives are already deleted for huge reporting. But nope it seems it is still ongoing And some greedy people are sending BTC to these addresses.
This is really very sad for those who are getting scammed. have any way of stopping this new scam technique without reporting those videos?

It is indeed so sad to see people falling for any money/coin doubling scheme, especially giveaways, I mean why would you need to send anything just to receive a double of it back ?

More than 8 BTC has been sent to the address: 1RoberTQ3EKQHuFkxNJsbw7FbbN5zcScR just within the first two hours of the address first seen receiving.

PS; I have reported the channels listed, but youtube doesn't really do anything to these channels, do they ? I still have few channels I reported with a more obvious scam attempt but they videos still at large. They probably care more about copyrighted contents than they do about scams.

I don't think still people exist who will fall for this kinda obvious trap. After that if anyone transfer their money and raise accusation to draw community attention definitely i will not make any response there. In that case i don't think it will be a wise decision to show condolence where victims is not worthy for it.

Just in last couple of weeks we have already got so many topic about this kinda youtube oriented fake giveways and Hyip projects. Its really surprising to see that people often waste their time by watching these idiots live streaming. Its better to visit porn sites rather than watching these bullshits. Youtube authority is very strict with this kinda contents but scammers need few minutes to reach their targeted audience. Investors should be ready to see much more simillar money stealing traps through youtube streaming in upcoming days. Thats why i think scammers have much patience that investors.  

Thanks "OP" for drawing our attention on this. Hope it will create enough awareness about youtube related fake giveways.

Lol! Agreed with your opinion. Atleast they will not lose some money if they don't watch these live videos. I can not also realized how near 1lacs people are watching those videos. What interest they can find there. It is just waste of time also waste of money for some unlucky greedy people.

Youtube may take some steps after reporting but it take sometime and this late is the high time for the scammers.

I was once a victim when i was newbie and with the quarantine plus economy meltdown going the scammer knew more newbies will join crypto which is the reason they target them using Kiyosaki cause he an influencer person and crypto enthusiast.

More than 8 BTC has been sent to the address: 1RoberTQ3EKQHuFkxNJsbw7FbbN5zcScR just within the first two hours of the address first seen receiving.
The BTC have increased to 11 plus after the channel was reported.

PS; I have reported the channels listed, but youtube doesn't really do anything to these channels, do they ? I still have few channels I reported with a more obvious scam attempt but they videos still at large. They probably care more about copyrighted contents than they do about scams.
Youtube cares more about copyright but if more people could join the force and report the channel they will definitely look into it. However, it sad that Google dont care so much about people in crypto sphere because they seems not to be doing their part as safety is concern because most of their services are used to scam people these days.
