Beware: Phishing Emails Targeting YouTube Channels

Phishing emails are on the rise, tricking users into downloading PDFs that clone browsers and compromising YouTube channels.

Transcript

Lately, we’ve been seeing an increase in phishing emails again. Downloading and opening the PDFs contained within them clones your browser, allowing your YouTube channels to be easily taken over without needing a password or two-factor authentication. Please always be mindful of the sender’s credibility and never open any attachments from untrusted sources. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to team@kw.media or on Discord in the YouTube Gaming channel.
