I guess you already figure it out , the thing is, when you see odd comment like that which doesn't sound real it is obviously a scam, but the sad thing is people are still getting scammed so easily, just few days ago a guy got scammed on telegram of 0.2 btc - well according to him- he send this amount to a scammer disguise as an admin of the group in the hope of buying the project presale token, but unfortunately for him he send his money to a scammer without even knowing, it was very sad thing, there are many scammers both on you tube and telegram, people should be careful.

Not only in youtube you can also find same comments in other social media accounts encouraging other people to direct message them and find a new victim. Usually they are showing fake proofs that they are earning ended up that's they are urging new people to invest their money to them.
Youtube comments are also full of lies telling they earn so much in bitcoin giving out contact numbers for newbies become victim. Although we can definitely earn legit here but the thing is, newbies aren't aware how it works.

That's already common in YouTube and Twitter as well, and they are trying to get attention so that they can scam others. You will usually see this kind of comment especially in videos for beginners like teaching about the basics of bitcoin and crypto. It's easy for scammers to attract attention from beginners who still lack knowledge that's why it's better to ignore those comments and report them.
First off, all these comments are from people or are they bots? I notice even on twitter when it comes to politics, you see these accounts post comments where it sounds like a bot... then you see other users who post the same exact thing.
I assume the scam here is you then contact that persons whatsapp or phone or telegram, then they ask you for money... then you get scammed?
Surely they are bots, bots are widely used in videos promoting anything on youtube right now. Specially if the profile seems suspicious or someone doesn't have a profile picture. They are doing that in order to convince someone that might be watching the video to invest in bitcoins with them and eventually like what you are thinking scamming them in the end. Most likely people who do this will invite people to some HYIP or pyramid scheme that bitcoin is being used. I assume the scam here is you then contact that persons whatsapp or phone or telegram, then they ask you for money... then you get scammed?
As far as I know some comments are done by bot some are paid comments I have also seen so many comments where person are promoting cryptocurrency exchange but they are all scam
Your true, there are array of paid comments and bot comments. Who read comments on YouTube?)
They always propose an easy scheme for a big profit. All you need to do is to send some money to the unknown BTC-wallet and follow a guide you will receive later. I agree with the thought the main target of such scammers is the newbies with a lack of experience in the crypto industry. We should be more careful about such offers.
They are always scam. They even now buy accounts with verification tag to look more legit, which newbies could easily fall for. Someone once told me that no one would have time to share a wealth secret that works for him or her. They will rather have it to them self rather than share so that they can become more rich. People that are legit don't have time to go around spamming like crazy.
Those people who will tell you something to earn money with only little effort to do then for sure it is a scam, there is no legit website that will give you profit for only little effort. besides, it is hard to believe people in telegram because many users there are fake and will going to scam you. I already encounter many things like that using telegram, thankfully, I am now really familiar with that kind of tricks from scammers because I already got scammed once so it makes me more careful than before.
Even on facebook, they are there. I think they're bots and also there are people who uses those accounts just to look for people that they can scam.
Yes. That's the process, they want you to contact them and they'll tell you the scam on how they've made money out of bitcoin or any source that will make you feel the greed. But as long as you don't contact them or click any link that they attach, you're good.

Not uncommon as I see this already on different social media platforms already. It isn't only been seen on Youtube but also in Facebook and Twitter.
If you are a newbie then you will easily fell into this kind of traps. If you are here for quite some time then you know already that this is a common way of scamming investors. There is nothing we can do about it and after all, investors will not learn if they will not experience it the hard way
. I've seen most of this type of comments on Youtube since I'm spending most of my time there and I just simply ignore them.

This is not all bitcoin related, if you visit any money related content you will see pretty much similar scams happen there too.
legit . ive been checking money making vids , pages , groups before and what the op saw in the coments on video that he watch are also all there but they dont use the name bitcoin because there are still no bitcoin that time , they use the name of the payment method that is been in the topic . on our time now, its the crypto and btc are now popular and they started using this names .
what only pisses me is that they destroy the name of bitcoin and the popular wallet that im also using because they also include it as proof
This kind of posts comments with threads, messages, feedbacks, or referrals should be ignored when you are watching youtube or even reading through social media posts. Most scammers are roaming around this platform, victimizing newbies who have no idea about cryptocurrency and how scam schemes work in crypto.
Its totally scam. Never send your money to their wallet, even if you want to test for small value, please dont! cause your mone will be lost.

Could it be any more obvious?
They're certainly not trying that hard by spamming every comment section on YouTube to help you make money, comments like that at the very best are shilling their referral links or at the worst are a link to a phishing website which will steal sensitive information or it's just a link to some scam website which will eventually run away with your money if not at first.
Just ignore any kind of comment that includes advertisements to a different YouTube channel or some random website.

Personally, not all visible video on Youtube about Bitcoin is a scam, I mean, we need to take care to select, my opinion, right here it seems real has a scammer which is manipulated to those people that have a strong influence inside the web, but the fact, it is controlled by the property of moderator to delete all unknown programs towards to secure anytime to prevent damage their own license. Because for me I also know a lot thru videos and it is also suitable to search to all website about Bitcoin which is my habit to learn something.
it's scam and that message was coming from the scammers. there are so many bots on twitter and that's an old trick that being used by the scammers.
Your last point seems true if the scammers will get in touch with you directly through your contact.
The scammers will be spamming the same messages anywhere.
The messages are coming from a real person in Youtube comment sections, the bot there is much trickier because they mimic the responses of real people. The best that you can do about these bots and scammers is ignoring them as this will ensure that you will not get baited into their scheme and them ending up catching no gullible people to scam. Your last point seems true if the scammers will get in touch with you directly through your contact.

Spamming Youtube comments with a bot is the laziest scam of all scams.
I guess that this scam still works,since the scammers keep doing it.Perhaps Youtube will develop an algorithm that will track and delete all those bot comments saying "This guy is legit,he helped me make a lot of money.Check his Telegram,Instagram,Whatsapp,bla bla" I'm sure that Youtube has the capability to fight spam and scams on their platform,but for some reason,they simply don't care.
I wonder what kind of people would be so naive to trust this BS?

I never bother to read all of those comments because I don't think that they are honest people who give good reviews to that channel. I prefer to watch the next videos to find what I want without thinking back to that video. You will see many other videos like that, and if you are not careful, you can get scam by them. The Youtube channel can pay some people to give the best comment they can and rate the channel, so many people will follow their instructions. When they give offers that look not make sense, you should leave it as soon as possible before you get in their trap. That is not just happening on the Youtube channel, but it also happens on other social media which they can get many new targets.
This is not all bitcoin related, if you visit any money related content you will see pretty much similar scams happen there too. As long as there are gullible people who are too greedy to use their brain, there will also be a lot of scammers taking advantage.
This is one of the reasons why Youtube keeps purging a lot of cryptocurrency related content from their platform as they are the breeding ground of scams from the video itself to the creator and the comments.
