Supreme Court of India YouTube channel hacked, promoting cryptocurrency scams
New Delhi: The YouTube channel of the Supreme Court of India appears to have been hacked, with videos promoting XRP, a cryptocurrency developed by US-based Ripple Labs, currently being displayed. The channel, which streams live hearings of Constitution Bench cases and matters of public interest, recently broadcasted the proceedings of the suo motu case concerning the RG Kar Medical College and Hospital rape and murder.
Hackers have reportedly made earlier videos private, and a live stream titled "Brad Garlinghouse: Ripple Responds To The SEC's $2 Billion Fine! XRP PRICE PREDICTION" is now visible on the channel. Scams involving the hacking of popular video channels are not uncommon, and Ripple had previously sued YouTube for failing to prevent scammers from impersonating its CEO, Brad Garlinghouse.
According to a report by The Verge, scammers have been creating fake accounts for Ripple and Garlinghouse, often by hacking successful YouTube channels. These hacked channels, with their large subscriber bases, are then used to promote fraudulent XRP schemes, misleading viewers into making payments in exchange for promises of rewards.
Supreme Court officials have confirmed that the channel's hacking is under investigation.
