A few days ago, I have seen a lot of fake giveaways or double your money scheme on youtube. The usual scam posts on twitter pages of crypto exchanges/influencers have migrated to youtube. Those videos were already reported and have been taken down.

Recently, another channel apppeared and this time, it is tricking users to download/install a malware into their computer as reported in this article.

A new scam is underway on YouTube that uses videos to promote a tool that can allegedly generate the private key for a bitcoin address.
