AFAIK in the past there's channel named "Live News" too promoting scam, but the subscriber is 1.8 million while this channel only have 196K. I've already reported the channel and I hope you doing same.

Lower left move this topic to Scam accusations board.

Thanks for the advice. This is a warning for those newbie investors.
Either way, there will and will be investors will fall into this kind of traps. We can see it because they aren't stopping doing this kind of shitty stuffs on Youtube.
I've seen some popular Vloggers here in our country that is being hacked. I saw one with around 5 Million subscribers being hacked but got recovered within the day it is hacked and now there is this one famous vlogger who got 1 Million subscribers got hacked and changed to "Ripple Foundation" and it got hacked 2 days ago and still not recovered till now.

You have to be gullible to buy bitcoin in the first place which is why its easy for these scams to work

I'm not sure if the BTC belongs to the victim or their subordinate...
In the scam thread, there have been many reports about fraudsters who use YouTube to cheat, but they won't stop easily. btw, I don't think your opening line was very appropriate @OP, sorry I am correcting.

[Permonik]

It is the address of that scammers, it is on their site, which is mentioned in the description of video...  I am sorry I did not saw scam thread, so I posted here.
I am apologize for strong language, but this kind of scams will always set me in the fire.

Oh man this is very bad. The youtube scam has been happening openly, people will easily fall for it. If the bitcoin address truly belongs to the scammers, then for sure we need to create awareness of the scams. If he has already earned, then 1.4btc is more than enough for him to spend for the month.

Many criminals are lurking on Youtube, many people are looking for some ways on earning money, but we should know whether that way is legit or not, I am hoping that no one with 90,000 watching(as of now) will be scammed for that scam,   I already reported the video, hoping you also do.

Most of this scam is doing a bitcoin giveaway but ally designed for stealing your money, do not ever trust anyone when they are asking for you to send any amount of cryptocurrency especially don't don't know the person.

With that vast viewers, it's very likely that they will get newbie victims and that's the sad reality.

Youtube no action, reports coming but they never take it into account.

4,47btc right now...

I think many people was fell on this Bitcoin scam. As I watched the video a lot of viewers and likes ,so I will not be surprised. It's so sad for them that become a victim of this another bitcoin scam. So be cautious for this kind of fraudsters.

[BlackHatCoiner]

All these viewers are bots. The channel's owner is going to hell for sure 

Right now it says that the scam address has 4.2BTC and it's an example of how stupid some rich people are. Don't they make their research? They just send some thousands dollars to an unknown person? The address is receiving 0.1BTC every few minutes. Congrats.

The fun fact is that the channel has no videos with hundreds of thousands of subscribers, hmmm suspicious? No?

Looks like coming from their subordinates because their style is an obvious scam and i believe that people knew about that in our time now.

Anyway lets report this one for Youtubes faster action,already done now.

4,7btc right now...

Don't worry that small amount means those are coming from their own pet that will boost the system to lure victims.

I already reported this channel too. So sad to the victim of this scam. I hope some victims send their bitcoin ready to lose, not their money for the needs, bills, medical, etc. This will create bad feedback about bitcoin again, even if bitcoin didn't do something wrong.

We don't know some rich newbies trying to earn easily will send their bitcoin in this kind of scheme, so the best move we can do is to report that page. To make sure that no one will become a victim of this scheme.

About the channel with a thousand subscribers. Yeah, it's suspicious. Who knows some newbie that wants to earn easily will send their bitcoin.

It's the same name right now. It's a Live news channel.
It is still the same to Twitter's hacked incidents. It is offers someone to double your bitcoin and if someone has been fooled lastly. I guess they will learned not to fall again on this time.

Is there someone who reported this directly to Youtube?

I think a lot of users already reported in YT. But on my end, I also reported it under this category -
And when you press next, you can add details of your report. I hope YT will remove it as soon as possible.

These scams have always existed and will continue to exist.
Bitcoin is chosen as the best way to cheat (no tracking)
Also, please do not give any money to anyone without enough information.
And it should be noted that the probability of getting rich overnight is very low and it happened to very special people.
Stop dreaming.

As long as there are bewbie's seeking for opportunity and lazy for researching some thing on what need to avoid then there always be a scam incident will happen, this doings will not fade since if money is involve in transactions for sure people will always do that and will be find more appealing ways to steal money from the people they fool.

[Permonik]

Hmm, they even have ETH address on their site with 23ETH

Old scam. Sadly people still fall for these scams. Weird how people were still sending money to those wallets. Like, the people who send those money, why do they think that people are going to give them free money? Even billionaires don't "give away" money. They donate money to charities and organization. How stupid do you have to be to fall for these scams?
More weird thing is, youtube does nothing. If it comes to copyright contents, they take it down right away. By the way, those 700k live viewers are bots probably.
