Another Elon / Tesla YouTube hack is happening right now on the US Department of Health and Human Services channel

Summary

The YouTube account @HHS (also @USGOVHHS) which is the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has succumbed to a Tesla/Elon/Crypto hack.
 

This showed up in my feed about 45 minutes ago.

 

The channel NORMALLY provides a variety of content related to US public health, medical preparedness, and response efforts. The channel includes videos on topics such as healthcare policies, public health campaigns, emergency response initiatives, etc… 

 

… I don’t want to post the direct URL so here is a Google-ized version:

My thoughts

The familiar “Elon / Tesla crypto giveaway” hack is back but this time on the a US Government YouTube channel. It’s the same old garbage QR Code “double your crypto” AI Elon deepfake. Had around 49,000 people watching when I just tuned in.

Yeah, possibly from a judge. This was a particularly moronic thing to do.

i don't know about that, at worst they are getting fired. 
They lost control of a youtube channel, not expose the entire medical history of millions
