I was so close to falling for this, we need this to reach more people.
This is why youtube needs to show the dislike amount again
I am a Senior Software Engineer and just looking at the code I knew something was wrong. Didn't fall for it.
Almost fell for it. THANK YOU. You saved me. The first red flag for me was that he said used 1 ETH as if that was the minimum.
Almost fell for it.. I found this video just in time. Actually already had pasted the code in Remix IDE and funded a wallet. But got suspicious before deploying it and found this video right on time. Thanks bro
the way i noticed something was not right is the comment section, i saw the same comment by 4 different people on different days. also 6 days of comments and not a single reply ? or one comment say 12 days the bot made me money and the video was 7 days old. but i almost fell for it too. this info needs more exposure thanx for getting this info out there. the scammers are very convincing.
I knew something was off when I watched two videos from different channels and the "voiceover" said the same script in exact order. Led me to do more research and came across your video. Thanks for this!
YouTube loves letting people get scammed.
hey bro. I got scammed a month ago with a fake exchange from a YouTube video. wasn't falling for anything like this again. thanks for the video letting others know about these scams out there.
I canβt believe that youtube is not stopping these videos.
Ive been reporting this so often, and nothing get done. Every single video I find, there all still up
Thank you for exposing these cowards!
Got scammed for a whole ETH
Fell for it. Lost $1,897, don't know where it went but I can't seem to get it back definitely wish I saw this video sooner
Thanks, my friend. I was very close to falling for this enticing scam. Luckily, there are people like you who explain the contents of the scammer's smart contract. I truly appreciate your video!!
what's sad is you can't even trust sponsored videos from YouTube. if you send a complain you can see that their proxy companies come from hong kong? sounds so fishy
I fell for this as well :( Lost $250 (between fees and what was sent to the scammer's wallet). Thanks for making this video though, hope these guys are eventually prosecuted. I've reported the video that lead me there
Another MAJOR red flag: quite often the video begins with a callout to the effect of "the following content is typically reserved for my exclusive group. So why am I releasing it? I believe in the power of community.... blah blah blah". This is a tactic to build trust, paired with a sense of urgency.
bro i almost fell for this. The videos and comments were so convincing.
