What Happened to These Youtubers?
29If you have a YouTube Channel, or other social media account where you have content, you will fall victim to this hack that will delete your content, take over your channel, and possible encrypt all your personal files. It has even happened to tech channels like Linus Tech Tips LTT. I care very deeply about this because many of our channels members have such accounts and knowing a few tips can protect them and you from such attacks. So, today we talk about the YouTuber scam that will happen to you, and how to protect yourself.
