I lost more than 10k ada. There is a one problem for new people in crypto like me. People search usually news in google browser (f.e. from last one hour) and difficult to find scam alert in this case. They know it. Youtube is the biggest problem, because everything what they do it is too late.
theres 2 scams right now broadcasting live on youtube. I kept flagging them (1 of them has been running for 3 hrs since I started flagging). youtube doesn’t seem to be doing much

There are no ada giveaway. You sent your ada to a scam. I am sorry.
What can i do now call the police
You could. However, do not get your hopes too high. This address could be operated from anywhere on this planet.
The ‘viewers’ are probably bots and the scammers are getting more sophisticated with their ability to appear ‘real’.
I am sorry for anyone’s loss, talking about it here and elsewhere will hopefully reduce the scammed
YouTube need to be better and sort this out, they are being paid for hosting these scam videos and the scammed might wish to group together and initiate a class action against YouTube
We all have individual responsibility to look after ourselves and our families, YouTube should be held to account for their part in this scandal

You are the victim of a scam. There is and were never a giveaway from Charles.
Just stepped in a new Youtube Scam right now.
It shows a Livestream with Charles.
They provide a Link to a new Homepage, where you can send ADA and get 2x back.
I dont know if I should post the Link here. I dont want to send People to the Scam.
Please watch out.
Just report it, allways will be this kind of scams!
Already reported on Youtube.
Just want to report over here. Dont know how to warn the most people…
