Wednesday

Biceps

Elon Musk

Ranveer Allahbadia, known as Beer Biceps, reported that both his YouTube channels were hacked on Wednesday night to promote a crypto scam. The official channel was renamed to “Tesla,” while his personal channel was changed to “@Tesla.event.trump_2024.” 
In a shocking move, the hackers deleted all existing content from both channels, replacing it with older streams featuring big names like Elon Musk and Donald Trump. This incident raises concerns about the safety of high-profile accounts, especially after the recent hacking of the Supreme Court of India’s YouTube channel. 
The attackers also used a live stream featuring an AI-generated Elon Musk avatar to lure viewers into a cryptocurrency scam. The fake Musk urged viewers to invest in crypto, falsely claiming they could double their money by depositing Bitcoin or Ethereum on a suspicious website called elonweb.net. 
YouTube has <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@beerbiceps" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">removed both</a> of Ranveer Allahbadia’s channels, displaying a message that says, “This page isn’t available.” After the hack, he celebrated with vegan burgers on Instagram, stating, “Death of Beer Biceps met with Death of diet.”
