Youtube to delete all accounts in December
« on: October 22, 2008, 03:53:44 AM »
I just got a bulletin on my YouTube account from Tornadoman566. Starting in December, YT is going to delete all accounts because of the fake YT accounts and bots. if I don't send the posted bulletin, my YT account will get deleted. Is this true or is it a hoax? Should I contact the service team if it's true or a hoax?

NEVER believe in bulletins like that.  I can't believe you took that seriously. It's nothing but a hoax.

Well said.

It's people like that who are:

A. Either wanting attention
or
B. Counting on your account to close after too many of those "Pass it on or else" messages clog up your inbox.

Come to think about it:

I did what someone told me...
I sent the email to 10 people like they said.
I'm still waiting for that event to happen.
