https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcFB9ovtcx6pAnedaY6MXCwThis channel's name is Binance and probably is a fake or a hacked one. This has 240K subscribers and giving away free Bitcoin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vh5cTaiJsoWhich is most probably a scam. Here's their catch ✅If you send 0.1+ Bitcoin, you will be airdropped 1+ BTC back. ✅ If you send 0.25+ Bitcoin, you will be airdropped 2.5+ BTC back. +20% bonus ✅ If you send 0.5+ Bitcoin, you will be airdropped 5+ BTC back. +25% bonus ✅ If you send 1+ Bitcoin, you will be airdropped 10+ BTC back. +30% bonus ✅If you send 5+ Bitcoin, you will be airdropped 50+ BTC back. +50% bonus ✅ If you send 10+ Bitcoin, you will be airdropped 100+ BTC back +80% bonus
Do anyone has an idea what that channel is and how they reached 240K subscribers?

Obviously this is a scam service, they are live on youtube, and even more than 3000 people are watching ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) lol These people don't even know it's a scam service. And they turned off the chat feature to prevent us from giving warnings, really crazy. The site they are displaying is also fake, I know such sites before, everything was so complete for a blatant scam. But I really don't understand how they got 240,000 subscribers for a fake channel ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Is there no way to stop them? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

RULES: You just need to send between 0.1 BTC to 25 BTC to the contribution address and we will immediately send you back between 1 BTC to 250 BTC to the address you sent it from.
Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vh5cTaiJsoThe 240K subscribers are just fake or bot for sure. Only 5 K peoples are watching it that is nothing compared to the number of subscribers. Purely fake. Is there no way to stop them? ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Only by reporting the video from below on YouTube. More the people report more chances of getting it down faster. Anyways I think YouTube would automatically ban them once they detect the bot subscribers.

Yeah, even though these fake giveaway channels keep reappearing and fighting them is basically a whack-a-mole, it is still worth it to report them, and more people do it, the better. Anyways I think YouTube would automatically ban them once they detect the bot subscribers.
I am not so sure about that, i've seen YouTube channels that got fake subscribers removed, but channels are still there so I am not sure that's standard YT practice, but with the combination of fake subs and enough reports, those channels should go down fast.

This is a very old scam but surprisingly this is going to still work for someone who wants to get easy money from them. In fact they wanna be the first to send BTC. The real binance youtube channel I think is this one https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0BNTTRYI7c0MUM5355zMqg I have subscribed to it since I watched their videos to learn from them. That scam channel only have 1 video on it.

I reported this channel. 240k followers is not fake. They buy old channels and then rename it and use for fake live giveaways. I reported many similar videos here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5197873.0

That's probably the closest to the reality, it's not that easy to reach that huge number of subscribers, so they could have bought that channel and rename it, people should be aware of this manipulation, and people should use common sense, there is no way that they can give that huge amount by just sending, or better ask the community to verify the offer.

Or they can buy services that will provide users to subscribe to the channel. They spend money to have a good subscribers to look as if its legit but it looks worse when you see a lot of subscribers but only one video on it. There has to be a lot of report for youtube to take action into this channel so I encourage everyone to also report it so that they can take it down as early as possible.

Yeah, good example for that are those bounty hunters that are doing YouTube videos, they often have fake subscribers (bots) to appear more legit and to get accepted into bounty campaign. They even fake views. All social media channel numbers can be faked , and are faked in many cases.

![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) I do not understand why they are planning to cheat through Youtube. Youtube has very strict rules, they will lock this channel after it is reported by many people, I don't know how much money they make from newbies, but I think they spend a lot of money to buy one channel with 240k subscribers. These people don't even hesitate, they don't hide their faces, they're showing everyone the face of a liar. I checked Binance and they don't have any media on Youtube, this is a blatant deception.

Buying a channel with 240K subscribers might cost a lot but buying fake services through various platforms might only cost a hundred bucks or so. But I doubt that both of the above case with that channel tries to hack,it could be a hacked channel as well so scammer tries to make more juice before the real owner wakes and recover his/her account back.

They don't have to buy YouTube channel with 240k subscribers. It is much cheaper to simply pump those numbers with fake subscribers in the same way all those shitty ICOs are faking their Telegram/Twitter/Facebook/Instagram etc subscribers numbers. And since those channels keep reappearing, it is probably worth it for those scammers to keep doing that.

If you have the money you can buy subscribers on YTmonster on Fiverr and even here on this forum, and they are doing this to make their channel legit, because some noobs are not using their common sense or not asking or verifying first before they send their funds away, when they can only spend a minute or two to ask or Google it.

The question in my mind is not whether this is a scam, but how many people were foolish enough to send them bitcoin. That's crazy.
And I think the working definition of "airdrop" is basically "free token" in which case those scammers are misusing the term horribly and probably on purpose, since it's a word that makes certain people salivate. But there's nothing free in this offer. You've got to pay them some bitcoin up front....and that's ridiculous on the face of it. That's almost exactly what the Nigerian Prince scam is. To free up the inheritance, they just need a little money and then you can share in the huge reward.
Unbelievable.
As to why they have so many followers, come on. We all know it's very easy to buy youtube subscribers, twitter followers, facebook likes, and all of that crap. I've seen all of those things for sale right here on bitcointalk.
