Cryptocurrency scammers recently took control of the Supreme Court of India's official YouTube channel to promote a Ripple and XRP scam. The hackers rebranded the channel, featuring a fake livestream video with Ripple Labs CEO Brad Garlinghouse, and encouraged viewers to invest in the fraudulent scheme. They also changed the channel's name, URL, and deleted all previous videos. YouTube eventually removed the compromised channel for violating community guidelines. This incident is part of a growing trend of cryptocurrency scams on the platform, with similar attacks targeting other high-profile accounts like a popular gaming channel and a well-known pop band. Despite these breaches, YouTube has been able to recover some of the hacked accounts and content. The rise in these hacking incidents highlights the need for increased security measures to protect users from falling victim to such scams.
