Last night, I was on YouTube and on their main page, they had a channel called "[Twitter] - Tesla" with a live stream video (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxSUtFQHI3g -- no longer active). It looks like it was this video (link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zwx_7XAJ3p0) that was taken over a year ago. It included a QR Code with a link to https://2023tesla.io. It had the following: - Doge: https://ift.tt/PCXYseG - BTC: https://ift.tt/iy2ZELT - ETH: https://ift.tt/6qpUJx1 As of right now, it looks like over $620k has been scammed. this is just an FYI
