I got told on X/Twitter that this videos you mention weren't breaking any rules same as the ones with fake fortnite fashion show. I even find mulitple of this stream like this using the same clips but different channels.
I reckon RUclips should ban re uploaded streams so you can’t do the same stream over and over again the idea is they have to constantly record new streams and will eventually get tired of it and quit
This sort of behavior does not surprise me in the slightest. Clickbaiters have done things similar to this, crazy Epic Games/RUclips/TikTok doesn't do anything about this.
it’s honestly crazy how many scams happen, people are very gullible and these people make money off of absolutely nothing. yet the company’s do nothing to stop this. but i get striked for copyright.
I’m glad someone has finally spoken up about this. it’s so annoying and frustrating to watch these scammers make kids fall for this, it’s so disappointing.
@@mumble340zzyou’re too young to understand, i’ve seen someone donate 75 US dollars and the streamer didn’t do anything. the kid said in the chat after that he said his parents would get mad at him if the streamer didn’t get given the vbucks and it would be a so called “vbuck hack.” he ended up begging for his vbucks and he didn’t get anything.
Finally someone called this out. And another thing, I am starting to feel like the whole chat consists of bots, too. All the people are so repetitive and they all request the same skin over and over again.
just because they fouond a scummy easy way to make money does not mean they dropped out, hell, that gives you even more reason to believve that they didnt drop out. this is basically free income so they still have time to do school and everything
There’s only one person under the scam. He buys Verified channels, and he’ll do his little scam. That’s why they all sound so similar, and sometimes he does the “say gay=ban” is to get more interaction and get more people to play into the scam. Also, all those RUclips comment bots like Chicken are owned by him too.
youtube should troll these creators with putting a giant banner in red on their stream that says "This is fake dont fall for this" something along the line of that

I recognize Fruit Boom before, he used to do roblox scams livestream and its mostly just a classic website scam and giving robux in group funds meaning they must have used a fake website before to make it real. I didn't realise he was into fortnite now.
Oh wow, I had a feeling he was some sort of a RBX Trader before with the name and everything but I guess he wasn't. Met some decent creators on the RBX platform like Lonnie but there are a lot of the sour bunch which ruin it and not making any good with their followings.

the stream chats have filters that ruin any chance of anyone else seeing your messages. They'll still pop up on your screen but I and the ScammerSlayers have tested extensively and none of them could see my messages either.

Thank you so much I’ve been trying to tell these kids in the comments of the live streams and they obviously didn’t see and if anything i probably helped those dudes more for giving them more attention but I’m glad this problem is being noticed
He just did this as we speak right now 💀 (3:00). Everyone’s spamming ws in the chat as the random requirement (the actual viewers) The “winner” had subscribed, typed ws but had not liked.
Bro has the audacity to write this comment when hes making one of these streams right now 😭 not to menrion he is the guy behind all of those bot comments with tons of subscribers like "chicken".
Just FYI Spamming the chat with this is fake or pre recorded comments doesn't work as the creators block those words from appearing in their live comments. So its better to report them for being a scam.
I once saw a kid who gifted 50 dollars to one of these scum bags. It's honestly sad how these streamers are knowingly manipulating their young audience for some cash and just the thought of a kid being so excited to get his v bucks, asking their parents if they can donate to a streamer, only to realise they're getting nothing in return.
I used to fall for fake fashion shows because all they would do is say “YoU hAvEnT sUbScRiBeD sO wE cAnT sTaRt” I was too young to know they were prerecorded scammers
It’s so unfortunate there are a lot of legit streamers as well that do find one Fortnite skin! I love watching these streams there are amazing! I love all of these streamers they are keeping RUclips alive 😝
This video brings up a great topic, the fact that most “popular” Fortnite tik tokers are botted so they can get a creator code and fake videos for Money
Good and informative video. Keep up the good work. Regarding SAC, yes you need minimum of 1K subscribers or followers also you should be posting Fortnite related youtube.
if im not wrong, they use private servers that have all skins unlocked. so the stream goes on forever. EDIT: you mentioned this later in the video, mb.
Actually, got really involved with a few OG Fortnite projects and it was pretty reassuring to see some other discrepancies with what people's intentions are. Thanks for the info, good inspo
the issue is that they have words like "scam" banned in their chat or comments. Spamming that it's a scam would be a great thing to do, but no one can see it
I’m surprised how PremFN and you made videos about these scamming livestreams. I remember I saw a child who has a RUclips channel named “glitchgaming12” donated $200 to one of those livestreams and was asking the streamer for some v-bucks gift cards. I don’t understand why people donate over a hundred dollars when they could use that money for actual v-bucks. This may be biased, but I feel like all the little kids who donated money to those scam livestreams already have a bad childhood.
On top of this, there’s also the scam where people use prerecorded streams where they pretend to “gift” people from the stream without even adding them for HOURS. They click a random person on their friends list, click the gift button, and then exit out on the box page. Keeps kids watching for hours wasting their time.
I actually just saw a scam like this, the most obnoxious guy ever screaming. But he looked up like Chun Li and she wasnt even in the chat and even made typos and didnt like correct himself on it, so even while scamming he SUCKED at typing and didnt go back and fix it
I'm so glad I'm not the only person fed up with it, I called out a streamer called "manny" he actually saw me call him out and stopped the stream for a small amount of time, they also deleted it, but doesn't matter. He streamed yesterday lmao.
Thank you. I tried in chat to tell them that all it was was a private server or something that they have every skin and I knew they were not giving out codes. It kinda makes me upset everytime I see it because I know so many people are being fooled.😊
As someone who does legit giveaway streams and games with viewers and then to look at the feed and see my same viewers getting scammed by streams like that, it sucks sooo bad. Thank you for calling out these loser streamers. Hopefully RUclips or Epic does something about it.
Yup, ive gone into these streams saying "Stop wasting your time he has a devmake, a devmake is a mod that lets you have everything in the game" but its like im talking to a wall
There’s something similar to this trend where people act like they gift their viewers, but aren’t really doing it by doing the gift options thing and confirm it, and exits quickly to make it seem like they gifted. It sucks because it’s obvious that their vbucks aren’t dropping but kids are still falling for it.
lets also take into account that these are looped streams often 2+ hours long or so, just so no-one can tell that its looped... aside from screaming your lungs out for 10 minutes straight
They're just using Epic accounts, which have every single cosmetic in the game, even unreleased ones. Also the reason they have STACKS of gift cards? They're unactivated, meaning that they don't work. Also the creator code is usually the same, too
Ive seen ones on tiktok and its just giys using dev accounts and saying top gifter gets the account the sad part is is that some people actually fall for it
Its crazy that these are STILL up and running in big chapter 6 season 1, epic NEEDS to take action of these, it is TRULY evil that they are taking advantage of children,worst fortnite alwaye updates the item shop with popular things youtubers use (not saying thats bad).
I know it has been a while since this was uploaded but the exact same thing is happening with Roblox. There are these people who play random speedrun obbys, usually with some sort of noob=ban thing somewhere on the stream and most of the time some donation things like “$100=break monitor”, “$500=end stream” etc. Where the scam comes in is the gameplay. I’ll use Captain Slax shorts as an example. He will do a run, talking about how he will get a “world record” and how he’s “not a noob” the entire time until he gets to the end. When he finally reaches the end, he will go back to the beginning and “fix his pc”, which is just him opening the pause menu for a short time, and then the cycle restarts. This guy specifically also had multiple streams open at a time, which helps support that he isn’t actually playing the games. You would think that the sub count where his keyboard and mouse cam is would be live, but it must’ve somehow passed him by. I know you dont usually make Roblox videos, but if you could please make something talking about this I would appreciate it greatly. I do not have a large following but I am aware that you do. I dont care about popularity, I just want to stop more innocent kids from being scammed.
I searched for this after seeing the scam on TikTok. As I went back to TikTok, the scam account had just been cancelled, because it had violated the rules 😂
You just earned yourself a subscriber bro great video and great vibes. I totally agree with you these people who do this to little kids are just plain evil
Crazy thing is that this is so obviously scams, and youtube tiktok does nothing about it, that shit is actually illegal, my guess how they get all those cards is they either pay just for the cards alone with getting them scanned in and activated, or they just steal em.
I agree with you dude. These scams are completely disgusting and bad at the same time. I hope RUclips will do something. Oh and I hope Fortnite scammers streamers get banned.
I think something RUclips could do to possibly phase out these streams is that they could add a possible scam box that appears when you first swipe onto the stream so you can decide if you want to watch it. This box would only pop up if enough people report it for it to be flagged to RUclips. If after a week of the Scam pop up being on any content their channel has if the content being reported doesn’t change then their channel will be demonetised and donations will no longer be able to be recieved. People who have donated will be able to reach out to RUclips for a full refund on their past donations and the streamers should get a temporary or permanent IP ban from streaming and uploading content to RUclips and other Google platforms.
I've been seeing them everywhere. They're the same ones saying "the update is going live now let's do a give away" and they dont do the give away and the update is no where near going live (thats how i caught on pretty quick). I've tried reporting the accounts and lives but they never changed/did anything
Nice vid bro. Been reporting as many of these youtubers as I could for months now. Been telling my son about it. Now I will show him your video which explains it really well. Nice one
Yeah, sadly this is all too familiar. It seems like this type of content comes in waves. First, there was the infamous “MY SCREEN IS SHAKING, LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE AND TYPE ONE IN THE CHAT FOR THE EVENT,” and it's just them going into playground mode and repeating it. I wanted to make a video about this because a person was saying that they had the Korra outfit (at that time it wasn't available yet) but, what made me scrap that topic was on of the live stream, he was saying that his video was not pre-recorded and I took his word for it. Maybe I've been scammed myself lol. But overall, amazing video and great investigation! Keep it up!
Apologies for the random popping sounds, must've been a rendering error on my part

It happens because want blinds reason. Christians want a fully religious america, that's ridiculous. same thing here. kids want free vbucks even though it's ridiculous
Ive seen alot of these streams while scrolling on yt shorts, and ive always found it kinda suspicous but never thought much about it but now i see that its a pretty obvious scam. Thank you for bringing light to this!
this seems like a variation of the “i’m quitting giving away my account to highest gifted!” scam that was popular a few years ago
I feel like those relevant RUclips channels like MrBeast, Sypherpk, Nick Eh 30, and Lachlan needs to make a video about this subject to spread awareness. People from RUclips and Epic Games always listen to Sypherpk when he makes a video about bad situations.
Trueee
@@Legolas_Lyrhave you not realised danny is a bot.

Thank you so much I’ve been trying to tell these kids in the comments of the live streams and they obviously didn’t see and if anything i probably helped those dudes more for giving them more attention but I’m glad this problem is being noticed
He just did this as we speak right now 💀 (3:00). Everyone’s spamming ws in the chat as the random requirement (the actual viewers) The “winner” had subscribed, typed ws but had not liked.
7:09 for some reason my dumbass clapped back by saying "Well I didnt even know it existed" as if i was a fucking creator at all 💀
bro another thing i hate is when people invite me to their party to troll me with devs
?
@@shanebreezy4453 like on looking for party i get random invites from people with devs
@@shanebreezy4453 people will invite me from looking for party to troll with devs it has happened to me at least 3 times
There is one streamer that just has a timer that stays at 0:00 no matter when you enter the stream, as if they are doing the v bucks give away
Bro I have been seeing them everywhere and have been talking about this. When will it stop 😭
I keep seeing these in RUclips Shorts, and they ignore every chat request and cycle the same 20-30 skins, completely ignoring chat requests.
I always see this as well when I’m scrolling through RUclips shorts. I was shocked when I saw someone donate $500.
You literally have no right to speak bro
Does he know?
Bro you Littreally do the same thing mate.
Yeah bro it’s mental
Bro has the audacity to write this comment when hes making one of these streams right now 😭 not to menrion he is the guy behind all of those bot comments with tons of subscribers like "chicken".
3:52 “I’m feeling slightly demotivated!” most fake and british thing ever 💀
Just FYI Spamming the chat with this is fake or pre recorded comments doesn't work as the creators block those words from appearing in their live comments. So its better to report them for being a scam.
omg 7 months later and i still am seeing this scam everyday
I once saw a kid who gifted 50 dollars to one of these scum bags. It's honestly sad how these streamers are knowingly manipulating their young audience for some cash and just the thought of a kid being so excited to get his v bucks, asking their parents if they can donate to a streamer, only to realise they're getting nothing in return.
I used to fall for fake fashion shows because all they would do is say “YoU hAvEnT sUbScRiBeD sO wE cAnT sTaRt” I was too young to know they were prerecorded scammers
It’s so unfortunate there are a lot of legit streamers as well that do find one Fortnite skin! I love watching these streams there are amazing! I love all of these streamers they are keeping RUclips alive 😝
This video brings up a great topic, the fact that most “popular” Fortnite tik tokers are botted so they can get a creator code and fake videos for Money
Good and informative video. Keep up the good work. Regarding SAC, yes you need minimum of 1K subscribers or followers also you should be posting Fortnite related youtube.
4:35 also they use a voice changer used by a lot of “kid RUclipsrs” (content farms)
if im not wrong, they use private servers that have all skins unlocked. so the stream goes on forever.
EDIT: you mentioned this later in the video, mb.
Really glad someone addressed this topic. It is frustrating.
Great video. I saw this same issue and we need to do something about it
Actually, got really involved with a few OG Fortnite projects and it was pretty reassuring to see some other discrepancies with what people's intentions are. Thanks for the info, good inspo
I’ll be talking to RUclips.
the issue is that they have words like "scam" banned in their chat or comments. Spamming that it's a scam would be a great thing to do, but no one can see it
I’m surprised how PremFN and you made videos about these scamming livestreams. I remember I saw a child who has a RUclips channel named “glitchgaming12” donated $200 to one of those livestreams and was asking the streamer for some v-bucks gift cards. I don’t understand why people donate over a hundred dollars when they could use that money for actual v-bucks. This may be biased, but I feel like all the little kids who donated money to those scam livestreams already have a bad childhood.
Brother Childen shouldn't be having the type money
On top of this, there’s also the scam where people use prerecorded streams where they pretend to “gift” people from the stream without even adding them for HOURS. They click a random person on their friends list, click the gift button, and then exit out on the box page. Keeps kids watching for hours wasting their time.
Ashtvn does it 💀
Same people also yell out “say aimbot you get banned”
Yep.
Bro this scam method has been around since I was a kid, so like 10+ years ago. They do it with everything, I remember GTA V especially
This scam is very annoying, im suprised people like you really care, i subbed
I actually just saw a scam like this, the most obnoxious guy ever screaming. But he looked up like Chun Li and she wasnt even in the chat and even made typos and didnt like correct himself on it, so even while scamming he SUCKED at typing and didnt go back and fix it
I'm so glad I'm not the only person fed up with it, I called out a streamer called "manny" he actually saw me call him out and stopped the stream for a small amount of time, they also deleted it, but doesn't matter. He streamed yesterday lmao.
I really hate how common these types of things are nowadays thanks for spreading the word.
Thank you. I tried in chat to tell them that all it was was a private server or something that they have every skin and I knew they were not giving out codes. It kinda makes me upset everytime I see it because I know so many people are being fooled.😊
I’m really not surprised that Fortnite has scams like this
As someone who does legit giveaway streams and games with viewers and then to look at the feed and see my same viewers getting scammed by streams like that, it sucks sooo bad. Thank you for calling out these loser streamers. Hopefully RUclips or Epic does something about it.
Yup, ive gone into these streams saying "Stop wasting your time he has a devmake, a devmake is a mod that lets you have everything in the game" but its like im talking to a wall
There’s something similar to this trend where people act like they gift their viewers, but aren’t really doing it by doing the gift options thing and confirm it, and exits quickly to make it seem like they gifted. It sucks because it’s obvious that their vbucks aren’t dropping but kids are still falling for it.
3:40 Theirs no WAY that's a real human being 😂😂
lets also take into account that these are looped streams often 2+ hours long or so, just so no-one can tell that its looped... aside from screaming your lungs out for 10 minutes straight
5:34 website name?? (Just asking not gonna use it)
Fun fact: I’ve seen one where you had to donate to guess one and PEOPLE WERE ACTUALLY DOING IT
They're just using Epic accounts, which have every single cosmetic in the game, even unreleased ones. Also the reason they have STACKS of gift cards? They're unactivated, meaning that they don't work. Also the creator code is usually the same, too
Ive seen ones on tiktok and its just giys using dev accounts and saying top gifter gets the account the sad part is is that some people actually fall for it
I just want to check the site out and stuff but when I go to cosmetics it doesn’t go to this screen at 6:19
Its crazy that these are STILL up and running in big chapter 6 season 1, epic NEEDS to take action of these, it is TRULY evil that they are taking advantage of children,worst fortnite alwaye updates the item shop with popular things youtubers use (not saying thats bad).
I know it has been a while since this was uploaded but the exact same thing is happening with Roblox. There are these people who play random speedrun obbys, usually with some sort of noob=ban thing somewhere on the stream and most of the time some donation things like “$100=break monitor”, “$500=end stream” etc. Where the scam comes in is the gameplay. I’ll use Captain Slax shorts as an example. He will do a run, talking about how he will get a “world record” and how he’s “not a noob” the entire time until he gets to the end. When he finally reaches the end, he will go back to the beginning and “fix his pc”, which is just him opening the pause menu for a short time, and then the cycle restarts. This guy specifically also had multiple streams open at a time, which helps support that he isn’t actually playing the games. You would think that the sub count where his keyboard and mouse cam is would be live, but it must’ve somehow passed him by. I know you dont usually make Roblox videos, but if you could please make something talking about this I would appreciate it greatly. I do not have a large following but I am aware that you do. I dont care about popularity, I just want to stop more innocent kids from being scammed.
Tysm for actually posting abt this
I searched for this after seeing the scam on TikTok. As I went back to TikTok, the scam account had just been cancelled, because it had violated the rules 😂
You just earned yourself a subscriber bro great video and great vibes. I totally agree with you these people who do this to little kids are just plain evil
Crazy thing is that this is so obviously scams, and youtube tiktok does nothing about it, that shit is actually illegal, my guess how they get all those cards is they either pay just for the cards alone with getting them scanned in and activated, or they just steal em.
The only way to reduce this is by reducing the price of the vbucks, and putting all the rare skins in the item shop and give some of those for free
I agree with you dude. These scams are completely disgusting and bad at the same time. I hope RUclips will do something. Oh and I hope Fortnite scammers streamers get banned.
I think something RUclips could do to possibly phase out these streams is that they could add a possible scam box that appears when you first swipe onto the stream so you can decide if you want to watch it. This box would only pop up if enough people report it for it to be flagged to RUclips. If after a week of the Scam pop up being on any content their channel has if the content being reported doesn’t change then their channel will be demonetised and donations will no longer be able to be recieved. People who have donated will be able to reach out to RUclips for a full refund on their past donations and the streamers should get a temporary or permanent IP ban from streaming and uploading content to RUclips and other Google platforms.
I've been seeing them everywhere. They're the same ones saying "the update is going live now let's do a give away" and they dont do the give away and the update is no where near going live (thats how i caught on pretty quick). I've tried reporting the accounts and lives but they never changed/did anything
Nice vid bro. Been reporting as many of these youtubers as I could for months now. Been telling my son about it. Now I will show him your video which explains it really well. Nice one
Yeah, sadly this is all too familiar. It seems like this type of content comes in waves. First, there was the infamous “MY SCREEN IS SHAKING, LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE AND TYPE ONE IN THE CHAT FOR THE EVENT,” and it's just them going into playground mode and repeating it.
I wanted to make a video about this because a person was saying that they had the Korra outfit (at that time it wasn't available yet) but, what made me scrap that topic was on of the live stream, he was saying that his video was not pre-recorded and I took his word for it. Maybe I've been scammed myself lol. But overall, amazing video and great investigation! Keep it up!
