Daniel Thrasher

If you ever see someone posing as me in the comments saying they’re doing a giveaway via Telegram or whatever, it isn’t me. This is getting ridiculous.

I’ll do the best I can to block these weirdos. If you could join me in reporting spam on these accounts when you see them, that’d be 👌

I will never ask for your personal info. All of my accounts are verified (outside of Twitter and TikTok).

Stay safe out there ❤️

That's exactly what an imposter would say... Thanks Daniel.

It’s affected so many channels at this point. But it’s still good of you to inform anyone who may not know yet.

It's nice to see so many YouTubers addressing this. Almost every comment I make gets a reply from a bot pretending to be the content creator...

This has been happening a lot lately all over Youtube to creators both large and small. At some point YT is going to have to step in and do something about this, although I'll freely admit I'm not sure what steps should be taken.

A lot of decently big YouTubers I follow are getting this problem. Wow. It’s sad that so many people are having to deal with it.

Thank you for addressing the issue! It’s happening all over the place. This really sucks. Sometimes the channels that do this are created years ago, sometimes literally hours. I also see a lot of what seems to be phishing (or potentially adult advertising) under various channels, having a link to a sketchy site off platform. I don’t know exactly what they are, I’ve never clicked on one because the risks are too major.

Somehow forgot to read the "in reporting them" and thought for a second you wanted us to make a Daniel Thrasher fake give away army

It's amazing to me that YouTube hasn't done something about this yet. I guess they're too busy doing things like removing the dislike button

Almost all of my YouTubers have had these bots, "Telegram" isn't even a thing! Thank you for addressing this.

YouTube seems content to let this continue entirely unabated. I get replies to my comments on various videos daily from scammers. Replies from scammers are more common than replies from actual people. What a wonderful platform with no competition.

@CreativeSteve69

Sorry to hear they got you to now Daniel. These Scam comment bots have been going around for awhile now even to most of my regular other favorite YouTubers in recent months. It is getting ridiculous and YouTube needs to do something about it soon.
