Buy a cheap tablet to JUST manage emails. A second hand iPad is what I recommend as you are not required to use google services to activate an account. Don’t log into any other accounts, especially RUclips or anything to do with accounts you want to keep safe. That way, there is no way for the hackers to high-jack web based session cookies. It’s crazy that RUclips haven’t t fixed this yet.
Hi Chris, sorry to hear you had to go through the horror show. Glad you got it fixed. Your channel helped my wife and I a lot with our search for a starter TT set up. Your YT presentation is one of the best I have ever seen. You have great content and great personal and visual presentation. Keep up the good work and thank you.
Glad to have you back! Yes, I was one of those that unsubscribed during the "dark time". I figured that there was one of two possible reasons--you were hacked, or, since you had become a hundred-aire, you had decided to slink off to some out of the way place where you could live life on the cheap. I am truly sorry for your trouble and distress! It's nice to have your voice back in the game..
Took a month for RUclips to recommend this video, let me know you were back in control but glad to see you're back. Gonna binge the vids I missed later today.
Hello Chris! Awe man this sucks you had to go through that. Glad you are back. Yeah I saw that video on my feeds but I did not watch it. It actually caught me by surprise. I knew you would not do these types of videos.
Sorry this happened don't feel bad it could have literally happened to any of us. You're just the one worth hacking. Glad you're sticking with it and not letting it hold you back. I subscribed to this channel a couple years ago and have really enjoyed watching every video since. Thanks CS go news!
Great to see ya back Chris! Just so ya know, the name on this video is still CS:GO. Glad to see you’re back in the saddle! For some reason HiFi channels get these problems. Scammers love to hang out in the Audiophiliacs comment section, as well as others
It's ridiculous how RUclips/Google's security is so vulnerable. Yeah, we as users/content creators should always be aware of suspicious emails and sketchy sponsorships, but I'm amazed at how easy it is to lose your account with a single click. I mean, I just click a button and the two-step verification gets removed and password gets changed? Isn't two-step designed specifically for that? Google needs to do something about it
Can't rely on 2 factor authentication look up SIM swap😂. Hackers gonna hack all they can do is adapt and make patches. Rescue run of using the Internet. It could happen to any of us but he did click a link from an email that turned out to be fake. Anyone with an intimate knowledge of your identity could easily trick you into clicking an email link.
I wondered what happened to your channel, I might of unfollowed thinking what is this, but I am back, glad you are back, I do enjoy your video’s. Don’t always agree, but this stuff is all to taste isn’t it.
@@thevinylattack Sorry, for some reason I thought I remembered a list of credits at the end of one of your videos. I guess that speaks to the professionalism of you and your content. Keep up the great work and hope this setback doesn't negatively impact you too much. ✌
Chris like Corey said it's still labeled the old news channel. Before I forget I want to thank you again for recommending the Record Pi. I flattened a lot of new vinyl records.
This sucks Chris, and it's happening far too often to too many people. I'll make sure to watch and like anything you put out. Thanks for your hard work.
I was discussing your channel disappearing just this morning in the peanut gallery of Rachel’s Ghost live stream this morning. Know one knew what happened. I hope everything is straightened out.
That sucks. I noticed that the old videos have no comments. Are they gone for good? Also as others have mentioned the channel name is still CS:GO News.
CS. Isn't that an abbreviation for a swear? It is astonishing how many scammers etc there are now. It is getting to the point that every email, every knock on the door, every stranger on the street is up to something.
Run it in a container flat pack won't get hacked, Firefox have containers but they still interact with the operating system if using Windows use PC Linux very easy to set up nobody have any interaction with your operating system every app has its own container in a flat pack
You should of backed up all your videos, I know that would not fully resolve all the issues that occurred by the losses but at least you wouldn't have lost it all
oh god that was terrible. I saw the alert for the Elon Musk video but didn't see it was coming from your channel. I thought Elon pulled a trick to get his video notified to all users on YT. (just like he had apparently done on Twitter already) Glad you go everything back. Now, you still have to change the name back, because CS:GO News might make your current subscribers and potential newcomers weary of this channel being legit. Cheers
@@thevinylattack I see, they don't make it easy on you. Oh well, a few more days and everything should be back to normal. Hang in there, we're with you.
man, so sorry to hear about this, Chris. Yours is definitely one of the better channels on youtube. Damn the bastards that did this. Hope you get it all sorted out and good luck going forward.
Looks like your channel name is still set to CS:GO News or some such.
I'm going to assume he is unable to change the name for 2 to 3 months cause youtube rules
Another six days it would seem, but you are indeed correct.

Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoy the channel.
Glad to see you back sorry for the issues PEOPLE SUCK (some of them)
Truth.
I was trying to find your videos today, and noticed everything was gone. I had no idea what was going on
It was a giant mess.
Welcome back!! Glad you survived the hack.
Thanks, me too.

I completely understand. I'm glad to have you back.
Sorry that happened to you 😢 But glad you are back 😁 looking forward for everything. Keep up The Attack.🤘😎
Thanks much.
Can’t do much for you as a UK viewer - love the channel and hope this assists
UK views mean as much as any other.
Took a month for RUclips to recommend this video, let me know you were back in control but glad to see you're back. Gonna binge the vids I missed later today.
It's been quite an ordeal.
Ouch! I didn't know about your hack, but I wasn't removed as being subscribed! Look forward to your new videos.
I'm glad to hear it.
What a headache! I'm happy you're getting it all resolved now. Welcome back!
It was indeed a headache.
Hello Chris! Awe man this sucks you had to go through that. Glad you are back. Yeah I saw that video on my feeds but I did not watch it. It actually caught me by surprise. I knew you would not do these types of videos.
It was a tough time for sure.
Glad you are back. Get cracking on new videos. 👍🏻
That's the plan.
Sorry this happened don't feel bad it could have literally happened to any of us. You're just the one worth hacking. Glad you're sticking with it and not letting it hold you back. I subscribed to this channel a couple years ago and have really enjoyed watching every video since. Thanks CS go news!
I glad you're still here.
Yay! Back in business!
Indeed.
Glad you’re back! Got worried and missed you for a bit 😅
I was worried too,
Totally Sucks man! Glad you got it back and going!
Thank you.
Glad to have you back!
Thank you!
That just sucks. It would have been nice to have met you at Axpona. Glad you're back in business.
There's always next year.
Glad to see you back!!
Thank you.
Welcome back! Sorry that happened to you.
Thanks, me too.

It's still a work in progress.
Bummer man. Glad you're back. I hate, yes hate, hackers.
I'm glad to be back.
Not cool that happened to you and your channel, sorry my friend.
Thank you.
Welcome back, Chris!
Thanks, Ken.
Glad you got your channel back. A RUclipsr I follow recently lost a facebook group he created. Thousands of members, years of work.. gone.
I'm sorry to hear that. I was on the verge myself.
Glad to see you back!! Sucks you had to go thru this!! ATTACK!!!
It was definitely an ordeal.
Glad it's good now, I was wondering what was going on. Respect. Appreciate your videos. Thanks.
Thanks for dropping back by.

I whole heartedly agree. I think after this wave of attacks (no pun intended), they probably will.
I wondered what happened to your channel, I might of unfollowed thinking what is this, but I am back, glad you are back, I do enjoy your video’s. Don’t always agree, but this stuff is all to taste isn’t it.
If everyone agreed with me all the time, it'd be a damn boring world.
Glad you're back. Sorry you had to endure this. Looking forward to your new content.
I'm looking forward to getting it out there.
Good to see you! Hopefully you'll get the channel name changed back as well.
It's on the way soon.
So good this nonsense is over and you are back. We missed ya buddy!
Thanks, Ron. I appreciate you checking in while things were down.
Sorry to hear that you were hacked. I can tell you and your team have put a lot of time, money and energy into this. Positive vibes your way
If I had a team, I'd agree. This is a one-man operation.
@@thevinylattack Sorry, for some reason I thought I remembered a list of credits at the end of one of your videos. I guess that speaks to the professionalism of you and your content. Keep up the great work and hope this setback doesn't negatively impact you too much. ✌
@@jasonhoffer9017 Those are the names of my valued Patrons who help support the show.
Welcome back!
Thank you.
Chris like Corey said it's still labeled the old news channel. Before I forget I want to thank you again for recommending the Record Pi. I flattened a lot of new vinyl records.
I'm working on the name change, but that takes a bit of time. The Record Pi is absolutely worth the investment. I'm glad it's working out for you.
Done and done Chris. BTW your Goldring Ethos review is in my feed.
I'm glad to hear that. Thanks, Martin.
Yikes. Glad you're back.
Thank you.
This sucks Chris, and it's happening far too often to too many people. I'll make sure to watch and like anything you put out. Thanks for your hard work.
I appreciate you watching.
Sorry to hear that this happened. But glad to have you back!
Thank you.
What a pita. Glad you’re recovering. Missed you. Hang in there.
I'm doing better now.
Glad you're back and I hope you find the person that did it. 😕
I highly doubt it, but I'll take the win of getting everything back.
Happy for you that you got everything sorted out, Chris. What a nightmare that must’ve been.
It was pretty freaky.
I was discussing your channel disappearing just this morning in the peanut gallery of Rachel’s Ghost live stream this morning. Know one knew what happened. I hope everything is straightened out.
Almost. I just need the channel name again and I can do that in about six days.
Glad to have you back man!
Thanks, Hobbs. Now I need to mail that power cable back!
Sorry this happened. It does to the best of us!
Thanks. I'm just glad to get it sorted.
Sorry this happened to you!! Very naughty!! Glad you are back tho!!
I'm happy to be back.
Insert stream of expletives here about lowlife computer geeks! Good to see you back
I did plenty of that for days.
Still here. Sorry about what happened to you.
I appreciate you sticking around.
Easy done
Still subscribed....but are you going to be The Vinyl Attack again? Good luck Chris.
I most certainly will. Just as soon as I'm able to change it back.
as a subscriber of CS:GO news and The Vinyl Attack, I was conflicted by this
Me too.
Glad to see you back Chris.BTW Chris are you going to change the channel name back or stick with CS:GO?
The name change is a work in progress.
@@thevinylattack Roger that...Thank you. All the best man.
@@VMX1. Thank you.
Hi, what a bummer. Good luck. By the way, how can I be assured that you're not an AI talking head 😅
You can't...
That sucks. I noticed that the old videos have no comments. Are they gone for good? Also as others have mentioned the channel name is still CS:GO News.
I'm not sure. I think they might be. I'm just happy the videos weren't deleted. I was worried all the content would be gone.
CS. Isn't that an abbreviation for a swear? It is astonishing how many scammers etc there are now. It is getting to the point that every email, every knock on the door, every stranger on the street is up to something.
If these people spent half as much time at a real job as they do scamming people, they'd have more money.
Run it in a container flat pack won't get hacked, Firefox have containers but they still interact with the operating system if using Windows use PC Linux very easy to set up nobody have any interaction with your operating system every app has its own container in a flat pack
It's unfortunate this is a trend. Another RUclips channel I'm subscribed to (Brad Taste in Music) went through the same issue.
It's a freakin' plague.
That sucks!! Any idea who did it?
Nah. Random asshats.
Glad to see you are back, but they didn't fix your channel name yet? Still shows "CS:GO News" to me.
It's still a work in progress.
Me too my friend, me too. Sorry this happened to you. The crypto people grifting other crypto people again!
Whoa! Didn’t expect to see you here!
@@HappyAccidentVideos I enjoy my nice audio/music content my dude!
It's a madhouse!
You should of backed up all your videos, I know that would not fully resolve all the issues that occurred by the losses but at least you wouldn't have lost it all
I do have all of my videos backed up.
Hope you recover your ID tag
Another six days.
Good luck getting back up. Still labeled CS go by the way...
Working on it.
still shows cs go news on this end Chris. ?
Yeah, I have to wait to change the name for another six days.
I still see CS:GO as a channel name Chris……. What a PITA for you buddy. Hackers suck
It's a work in progress.
Welcome back!
Good to know that we can all be schmucks from time to time
I don't know if it's good, but it's definitely possible.
cs go is a video game. a very popular shooting FPS game thats played worldwide because of how little power it requires from your PC to play it.
I've never been an FPS guy.
Oh that explains it. I was like, how the hell am I getting subscribed to an Elon Musk live stream?!
I thought the same thing.
Channel name still shows as CS:GO News
It's a work in progress. The last step.
the name of your channel is CS:GO News ?
Until I can change it back.
oh god that was terrible. I saw the alert for the Elon Musk video but didn't see it was coming from your channel. I thought Elon pulled a trick to get his video notified to all users on YT. (just like he had apparently done on Twitter already)
Glad you go everything back. Now, you still have to change the name back, because CS:GO News might make your current subscribers and potential newcomers weary of this channel being legit.
Cheers
It's still a few days before I can change the name.
@@thevinylattack I see, they don't make it easy on you. Oh well, a few more days and everything should be back to normal. Hang in there, we're with you.
Nothing like an Elon stream, but it's nice to have the bearded wonder back and giving us epic, honest reviews.
I might have been interested, had they not hijacked me to get the stream out there.
So, what you're saying is that the bitcoin I sent to Fake Elon isn't coming back? 😂 Anyway, good to see you back!
The dangers of dealing with a currency that doesn't actually exsist I suppose.
But you didn't answer the most important question: do you actually like CS:GO or not?
Of course he does, he's diehard gamer!
I'd have to go with no, but I can't change the name for another six days :-/
I am back! Unsubscribed before I realized what had happened.
I completely understand. Welcome back.
Your channel is still called CS:GO News.
Yeah, I can't change it back yet. There's a limit to name changes in a given timeframe. Soon.
does this mean if listening to vinyl we wil be abducted by vinyl loving aliens
Pretty much.
elon musk is my favorite livestream
So you dont like CSGO?
I can't say that I do.
@@thevinylattack You should give it a try. It is a good game. I will play with ya.
Your channel name is still wrong, Chris.
There's a delay in changing the name back, unfortunately. I can attempt again in six days.
While Counter strike is a great game, I don’t think it fits your channel lol
Hopefully it gets fixed soon
I've never played it, so I'll just stick with stereos.
Welcome back!!!
Thank you.
'Computer genius'...naw dude, linus is a joke in the tech space.
That's what you took away from this video?
CS:GO News?
Looks like this is a fake copy of the Vinylattack channel.
I'm keeping a low profile.
man, so sorry to hear about this, Chris. Yours is definitely one of the better channels on youtube. Damn the bastards that did this. Hope you get it all sorted out and good luck going forward.
All that's left is to change the name back, but I have to wait another six days.
Nice to have you back!
Thanks.
Welcome back!
Thank you.
