After uploading a video clip of mine to YouTube for public viewing, I received the following message via YouTube:<\/p>\n

\nTo:[my YouTube ID and 19 others]<\/p>\n

If you receive a message like that (even with other domains in place of ‘sub4sub.com’), report it to YouTube as spam. To the right of the YouTube logo at the top of the message you will see:<\/p>\n
help center | e-mail options | report spam<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
click on that “report spam” link.<\/p>\n
It looks like the same spammers previously used the domain earnsubscribers.com, which was advertised using identically worded messages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
