SunlightBlade

PSA.
For whatever reason my latest video has been targeted by automated comment spam, fake 'sunlightblade' accounts are pretending to offer prizes and things of that sort. I have been deleting hundreds of these fake comments but as you can imagine, fighting automation is difficult and tedious.
Please don't fall for these comments! I am trying various ways to stop them such as banning the words/emojis they use but overall it's important just to be cautious.
Thanks

As a Patches fanboy, I know a thing or two about being scammed.

Blame Patches for this! The swindler got what he deserved in Murkwater Caves but now this is his ghost haunting us. In the end, Patches ALWAYS gets the last word

Unfortunately this seems to be happening all over YouTube at the moment. Eventually it should get sorted out but until then everyone should remain careful and cautious over some comments and accounts.

Not just you my dude, pretty much every channel I’m subbed to, in which I frequently comment, has been plagued by these scammers. Need to farm some melted mushrooms and soap the Fuq up ;)

The new pestilence on YouTube. I have seen these scams on so many channels and was often the "chosen one" who won a big prize. Gladly I am immune to these kind of things. What me really pi**es me of is the fact, that YouTube hasn't found a solution how to manage this problem, since it isn't happening since yesterday. I mean, honestly, it seems like YouTube is totally ignoring this problem.

Yeah this has been happening to everybody for a while. I've been reporting them when I see them but youtube needs to up their game. At the very least, they need to add a "scam" option for reporting because it's more serious than just spamming.

@Soul._.Seeker

Yea this happened to my comment on your video, I obviously knew it was fake because it had been happening all over YouTube for some reason and I hope people don't fall for that!

This has been happening to a lot of souls tubers lately, even small ones. I noticed a lot of these under videos by Be And lately.

There's a tool from ThioJoe that you could try and use. Also, make sure to "Increase Strictness" in your video's comment settings.
