Popular YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia is the latest victim of cybercrime. His YouTube channels, including Beer Biceps, were hacked on September 25, 2024. Ranveer’s channels were renamed Tesla. His Beer Biceps channel was renamed "@Elon.trump.tesla_live2024," while his personal channel was changed to "@Tesla.event.trump_2024."
Not just this, the hackers deleted all the videos from the channels and instead replaced them with old videos of Elon Musk and Donald Trump from various events. The hackers reportedly used a deceptive livestream of AI-generated Elon Musk and urged the viewers to invest in cryptocurrency. The channels have been deleted from YouTube with the message, "This page isn’t available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else."
While Ranveer has not issued any official statement regarding the issue, he shared a cryptic note on his social media handle. Taking to his IG stories, Ranveer posted a picture of himself with a mask and penned, ‘Is this the end of my YouTube career? Was nice knowing you all.’ He also posted a picture of food and wrote:
“Celebrating my two main channels being hacked with my favourite food. vegan burgers. Death of Beer Biceps met with Death of diet.”
