This is currently happening at such a large scale, I'm making a post about it. If you're making an #Indiegame and getting review requests from YouTube channels that seem too good to be true: it probably is. 🚩 Here are some red flags you should keep an eye on: - Way too consistent viewcount: every video gets the same amount of views (usually ~7000) - The person speaking has a similar accent on all of them. Usually listed in the Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Norway. but the accent doesn't match. - The comments are fake. copied from other videos of the same game, with throwaway accounts. - They have no social media listed. - Their email will match the one they are contacting you from, but don't let that fool you. - do a check on @SocialBlade, you'll notice their /user/ name in the URL will be different from what you entered as a search + they have a drop of millions of views at some point (the moment the account was hacked, bought or reset) - They will usually ask multiple keys. for their sibling, friend, partner. That's just to sell more copies. - They will email from several accounts, I'm talking 20+ and you'll notice the similarities in formatting Do the quick checks. Don't waste your keys on such accounts because they will end of being sold. If you got an email: block them so they can't annoy you again. If the request was on @press_engine, @LURKITcom, @Keymailer or any other key distribution platform: use the tools available to flag them and make the world a better place for all your fellow devs/PR/Publishers. We're in this fight together! 💪 Share this message with your #IndieDev friends to warn them! I'll link some examples below 👇
