I got an YouTube email recently from a fake sponsor and this is what happened.
Be very careful about the emails you receive from the email address you put on YouTube, because scammers are now using that as a way to contact creators. Here is what I found when I investigated a supposed sponsor email and how I ensured that firstly the person contacting me really was a scammer and secondly throughout the video I show what I found.
The contactor was fraudulently contacting me on the pretext of a major musical equipment company and it might have been easy for me to really get scammed had I not come from the IT business since 1981. But the question is, do YOU have the experience to expose the scammer and not get taken for a very expensive ride.
The scam was many fold, but I strongly advise that you watch the entire video very carefully and remember that when you're informed about some of this, you will have a far better chance of exposing the fraud and not get taken with a very expensive mistake.
Post down in the text whatever you want about how you have thwarted these scammers and especially if you have had your YouTube email used as a front for these scammers to use a 'sponsoring' tactic to leverage their scam - and how it all ended up.
