India's Well-Known 'Internet Celebrity' on YouTube Faces Cryptocurrency Scam

CarryisLive, the video channel of famous Indian YouTube “internet celebrity” Carry Minati (real name Ajey Nagar), has been stolen and part of a Bitcoin scam.

Apparently, Carrie Minati often uses CharryIslive to promote video games. After the channel was hijacked, two videos, titled “Ethereum Making Money” and “Charity Live: Assam and Bihar” were broadcast live, asking users to donate Bitcoin.

Fortunately, people quickly noticed the problem and the video was deleted. Some believe that the increase in cryptocurrency fraud in India could be a cause for deregulation. Recently, Indian President Modi said advanced technologies such as blockchain, 5G, big data analytics, quantum counting and the Internet of Things could be a potential growth driver in India. . For the first time in history, nearly 500 million users were connected to the Internet.

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak recently suffered the same scam, but he sued YouTube and parent company Google over bitcoin raffle scams. YouTube must also eliminate all Bitcoin sweepstakes scams and ads that use its name and likes.
