$170k Stolen Shiba Livestream Scam on YouTube

Nice to see that YouTube has the situation under control lol.

same domain for the past 3 days.

shibget.com

I have compiled a bunch of other domains but this one is probably by far the most profitable.

I think the subtotal for the past 3 days is around $1.3 million stolen at today's shib/eth prices, much of it made by I believe to be two individuals. Some of it went to exchanges though.

One is using REG.RU for both domain registration and nameservers, the other individual is using cloudflare for DNS and nic.ru for the registrar.

The YouTube accounts are hacked. They have an unlimited number of them. I dunno where they get the 5-40k concurrent live viewers.

This blows any other organized crime away in terms of profitability, scalability, consistency, and most importantly, not being caught. The same people doing this for years. Youutbe at this point is a willing accomplice for not doing more.
