Thank you Lisa for putting this out there to help me and others. Shows that you care about your subscribers and their safety. I had been talking with the scammer using your Mobile Tech review picture and high strung them along and finally told them that you posted not to Is fall for their scam. Interestingly enough they said thank you for wasting their time. I replied that that was funny since they were wasting people's time and my and money and hurting people's families and that they should be ashamed of themselves and afraid of the wrath of God. But then I would pray for them that they could either get away from those that are forcing them or get away from the life they have chosen to hurt people. Ivan "d scripture stating what good is it to gain the world and lose your soul of which they said which they said was a good quote. I don't think a lot of them care. Stay safe out there people and thank you Lisa for posting this.

That’s exactly what an impersonator would say who doesn’t want me to win free stuff! JK

Easy to see why a company that basically makes money off ads can't fix this. They don't care as long as the ads keep showing.

The worst ones are the Bitcoin ones that have 20 other bots reply to them in a nonsensical chain.

With all the work these spammers do, brainstorming and researching new spam tactics, recruiting and implementing the spam plan and then to execute and maintain the spam procedures.... Sheesh. Might as well just get a real job.

Yes, and I’ve reported 100’s of these “comments” too. Between viewers and Creators helping, I do not understand why it is taking YouTube more than a year to fix this problem! Especially given they can shut down a channel for a single 12 seconds of music.

Beware comment impersonators asking for money. Please ignore the automated comment bot that spams/scams offering prizes with an account that uses my picture but the account name isn't MobileTechReview and lacks the checkbox next to the posting account name that indicates our official account.
We will never ask you for money. When we do host giveaways, we do not charge the winner for shipping. Our giveaways are announced in a dedicated video and are never offered via replies to your comments.
Our official account has a checkmark next to our account name (MobileTechReview). Scammers don't have checkmarks.
This is a pervasive problem on YouTube right now, and YouTube does not have a handle on how to deal with it. You'd think it would be easy: simply block an account from posting the same exact reply 30 times on a single video. Duh. Until YouTube fixes this, we'll continue to delete scammer replies.
