The scams aimed at crypto audiences
Fake coin promotion
Bot comments that drop a ticker as if viewers were excited about it: “sitting here looking at my SPX90K stack…”. The names mutate daily (SPX85K, SPX89K, $$SPX85K) so blocked-word lists fall behind.
How this scam works →Impersonation
Accounts with your name and picture replying to viewers about a giveaway or an “opportunity”, then moving them to Telegram or WhatsApp.
How this scam works →Contact-number spam
Replies pushing a WhatsApp number written in lookalike letters (𝖶𝗁𝖺𝗍𝗌𝖠𝗉𝗉) so keyword filters miss it.
How this scam works →Bot waves on new uploads
Most spam lands in the first day after you publish, while the video is getting its heaviest traffic.

Why your viewers end up blaming you
Crypto viewers are used to acting on information in comments, and the scams are written to look like that information. A viewer who buys a coin they first saw under your video, or messages a “you” on Telegram, remembers where they saw it.
When they lose money, many blame the creator. Some say so publicly. The comment that did it may have been up for an hour; the damage to your name lasts much longer.
What RemoveSpam does about it
This is the traffic RemoveSpam was built on. Its pattern database tracks crypto scam campaigns as their coin names and wording change, and it is updated every day.
Your newest video is checked every minute, older ones on a gradually slower schedule, and every removal is listed in your dashboard so you can check its work. Real discussion of coins, including criticism of your calls, stays up.
Common questions
Why do crypto channels get so much more spam?
Because the audience is the most profitable to scam: they already hold crypto, can send it in seconds, and are used to acting on tips. Scam campaigns go where the return is highest.
Will it delete comments that mention real coins?
No. Mentioning Bitcoin, Solana or any real project is normal conversation and stays up. RemoveSpam targets the patterns of scam campaigns, not coin names in general.
