Just report them - it's all you can really do. YouTube became the new ground for crypto-scams recently as far as I'm concerned, replacing the previously invaded Twitter.

The third video has already been pulled down, and fortunately very few people have fallen for the gullible trap of the x2 quick ROI for doing nothing (send x and get 2x in return -> 0x in return really), hopefully some of the TXs being made by the scammer in an attempt to create a bit of hype. Reporting asap is the way to go. Edit: First address picked-up some traction unfortunately. Vanity address gives it a little glee.

Its seems video no. 3 has been removed by uploader, I have reported video number 1&2. We can do report only for such as scam, I believe if multiple report done then YouTube would take down these videos. Just report like below,
Select report (flag symbol)> Spam or misleading> Scams/Frauds. That's it and next you have to write a comment whatever you want.
This is actually traditional scam attempt, some newbies would fall into this trap, so please report everyone who are reading this thread.
Good job @OP, keep it up.

There is a lot of news like this in your Telegram where people are always cheating, I saw a cheating news from them a few days ago that if someone sends 0.1 Bitcoin to their address, 1bitcoin will be returned to their address within 5 minutes. . And in between, many people are saying Thank you, I received this offer, and so on, making positive comments, but in fact these are part of their cheating cycle, just like you see on Youtube and cheating is also a part, so the video is next to the report on his channel. Reporting would be best.

I do not fully understand why the fake giveaways last too long on youtube and big social media whereas important channels or accounts get banned or censored easily. Has anyone tried informing youtube about it? Hopefully, cryptocurrency developers will consider creating some kind of decentralized communities that can quickly reverse transactions from obvious and easily proven scams like lots of giveaways from social media and YouTube. This should help in discouraging the scammers.

Can this form of deception be said to be a ponzi scheme that is very easily recognized ? The 2x fold ROI promised is a definite criterion of ponzi, I think. Only by reporting I think the problem will be solved and dealt with. I dont think all the bitcoins in the wallet come from people who have been deceived, but I am sure most of the bitcoins come from their wallets sent there to get other people interested. However, this type of fraud is very easy to recognize even though he is a beginner.

Those Scammers are really very intent on making pishing or scam with YouTube media. They also do it live streaming and acting so convincingly. Whatsmore, their followers, and viewers are quite high. I watched the video and this makes me surprised: and They are only different channels. What I want to point out is: 1. Look at how they present the video, so interesting, promising, and also convincing, they even looked like they were doing a live interview, complete with the audiences in the studio. Of course, for some people, they may be trapped with that kind of video. 2. Look at the field that I highlight in yellow. It shows the viewers of the video during the live streaming and also button of the video on that YouTube. In your opinion, are the viewers real at all? That many? I don't think so, but some of them may be real, yeah those who are scammed and victims to be. 3. Moreover, in one video, there are only people liking, no dislike, so strange. I tried to like one of the videos, but it didn't appear. 4. What's more, is that the comment column is not active, so we cannot comment to warn the victims about the scam. What we can do right now is to inform and make many people know about this scam, they are likely real. We can start reporting their channel, hopefully YouTube will delete and block the channels soon.

As bitcoin halving is almost going to happen as well as btc might start it's bull run after this. The scammers just start their works. There is already a guide to report this kind of videos by TravelMug . So if anyone don't know about this , just read the post to know about that and also don't forget to report the fake videos.

It's too sad that there are many people that take advantage of the halving that is very popular now in the public. I don't want to blame those victims but for me it is better to check first if it is legit. There are many scams in the internet, the very basic scam was like that, attracting you to invest that will make your money double. It's very shitty and I hope people learn on that scam.

it might be very difficult to control, victims find it easy to get bitcoin free because of inability to afford, low knowledge on purchase and some other scam rumours, so they prefer a safe and free token. This are tokens they cant access with private keys but can be view on some fake websites. I was disappointing to see a live youtube interview from Kiyosaki yesterday that also promised free bitcoin.

It is sad to see this.I have just report the account to youtube and I think if everyone reading this can do the same, the account will be blocked in due course. I have also come across the blog version of the scam several time on twitter. the scammer always use elon musk to be giving giveaway and I have reported the accounts many time but the scammers keep using different script

I just saw these lives yesterday on my main youtube page. I didn't even watch those movies, because everything stanked already from afar... I feel sorry for those who were fooled.

This types of video only can be find in those youtube channels which are hacked. So real persons are always in shadow. But all the exchanges can do a great thing to block or freeze the deposited amount from this address.

It is sad to see these, that many fall into the trap of scammers. They repeatedly send BTC to their address to create trust and hype among the people. After reporting, Youtube deletes the video, but as long as the video is live, it is enough time for scammers. This kind of activity creates a bad side about crypto which is not good news for the community. I would like to thank OP for exposing this scam. Because many newcomers don't know about such scams.
