If the message posted on Twitter allows us to quickly understand the concern that the YouTube star is experiencing, the owner of the channel took the time to express himself on Instagram, in the process, in order to make it the story to his followers. In reality, the announcement and the sanction imposed by the platform is not a hoax, or even an error, but does follow an event that took place on Friday, April 9.

The young man with 7 million subscribers on YouTube is not the only one to have been targeted. For the past few days, some content creators have been rushing to warn those who follow them assiduously of the hacking, or at least the attempt, of their account.
