Hello @YouTube @YouTubeArabia
Can you add these options in youtube ads reporting :
Phishing/Scam and offensive
And edit inappropriate option to
Inappropriate/sexual?
As there are many phishing ads and some times inappropriate ads on your platform that are getting approved somehow
I will make a thread filled with screenshots of phishing and scamming ads on @YouTube until I get a reply
Let's start with this scam using @PUBGMOBILE name to scam users to enter phone number and subscribe in useless sms services that take money from the user's phone weekly
Scam ad on @YouTube using @PUBG name to get users' phone number and subscribe them in you sms services that takes money of the users weekly
I archived hundreds of phishing scams using @YouTube ads service and this one is using @PUBG name to scam users the title of the video translated :
The strongest way to charge Pubg for free and new season for free 2020
To provide enough proofs here is active scam ad using @YouTube ads service using @PUBG name to scam users
Some Scaming accounts abusing @YouTube ads appear to be hacked accounts and bots comments on these channels are same but sometimes they are a new accounts made by the scammers themselves here is a channel that runs different scams
Some Scammers use old accounts to run the scams on @YouTube ads as we can see this channel stopped posting 10 years ago then came back to post a scam using @FortniteGame name to scam users so it is more likely a hacked account or what is known as revived account
Other games' names scammers use to get victims with @YouTube ads is GTA game owned by @RockstarGames
Other type of scams using @YouTube ads is ads on search results looks like this bypassed and got approved by adding extra letter to @Roblox name
Scammers target big channels like @xYjYx with @YouTube ads this one is using @FortniteGame name a game owned by @EpicGames
Scams using @YouTube ads and @AdSense using @Roblox name to target kids and trick them into registering in websites to steal their phone numbers and make them join sms services that take subscriptions fee every week
Not all scammers target big channels some just target countries or specific areas using @YouTube ads and this one appeared on @Jameskii smaller second channel using @FortniteGame name
Almost all scam ads I see on @YouTube abuse the algorithm by using too many keywords in the description of their video while others choose to be unlisted so the videos don't appear in search results
Some scam ads that I rarely find on @YouTube use @EASPORTSFIFA game name to scam users
Another scam using @FortniteGame name to get more victims on @YouTube ads
Some scamming channels are confident to upload and pay for ads to scam users on @YouTube
You can see that it is working for them from the views by using @FortniteGame name
Scammers on @YouTube is unknown without the help of Youtube and @Google but after analysing hundreds of scams it appears that most of these scammers language is Spanish and most of the time they pay freelancers to edit the videos, make thumbnails and voice over the scams
Some scammers on @YouTube ads use games others use investment scams but these use scam tutorials on how to get verified on sites like @tiktok_us @twitter @instagram to get victims into giving their numbers and subscribe to sms services that take a weekly fee from the victim
Some scamming channels that abuse @YouTube ads terms upload scams in different languages targeting different countries in the same channel as we can see this one using famous names like @FallGuysGame @RockstarGames GTA @Roblox and @FortniteGame to scam victims
Other scammers using @YouTube ads use @PlayStation name to scam victims into giving their phone number and registering in sms services that charges them a weekly fee
Promising victims free accounts with rare skins that is how this scam works using @FortniteGame name and @YouTube ads
Here is a simple example of the scams using @YouTube ads when you search for Stocks and investments on Youtube this is what shows up in the search results
Some rare scams on @YouTube use unrelated titles (maybe attempting to bypasss Youtube ad approval) and the game used to scam victims is @FortniteGame
Another scam on @YouTube using @RockstarGames GTA as a scam bait
@FortniteGame @Roblox @pubg @FreeFireMena @PUBGMOBILE names used to scam users on @YouTube as we can see the views are not to be taken lightly this means thousands of dollars in few weeks from the victims
@amongus scam offering modded among us which violates @YouTube terms even that the victim will not get a modded version. The victim will get his phone number stolen as he types it in the scammers website and get tricked into subscribing to "offers" that will take a weekly fee
Scam on @YouTube ads offering modded @PUBG version to trick users into giving their phone number and subscribing to services that takes a weekly fee
a @PUBG scam abusing @YouTube ads terms and getting on channels like @AzizSamily channel and this is nit the only case there are worst cases
Some scams use well known Youtubers like @ArabGameNetwork on thumbnails to scam users using @YouTube ads both scams got deleted more likely after the youtuber himself reported it but after what cost
This old channel (likely hacked) post scams about @AppleMusic @CashApp on @YouTube
@FortniteGame scam spotted on @YouTube ads
@YouTube is a company that I respect for showing extremely powerful use of Ai that I never seen on other platforms to protect users and they deleted racist videos that I reported in the past even if it was 10M+ view so I know they can do better and that is why I am doing this
Some channels are being targeted by scammers using @YouTube others are just random we can see @FreeFireMena scam appearing on big channels like @TMFaisalx channel
@FortniteGame Phishing scam ad on @YouTube
