YouTube warns that scammers are using an AI-generated video featuring the company’s CEO in phishing attacks to steal creators’ credentials.

The attackers are sharing it as a private video with targeted users via emails claiming YouTube is changing its monetization policy.

“We’re aware that phishers have been sharing private videos to send false videos, including an AI generated video of YouTube’s CEO Neal Mohan announcing changes in monetization,” the online video sharing platform warned in a pinned post on its official community website.
