Wooo nice! Faster than I expected. That's great news.

Glad you got it back. I was rubbing my eyes yesterday when I thought I clicked on a new Retro Game Corps video only to see some.live stream about crypto. 👀🕳️ I should have taken a screenshot of that baldy fella. 👽 As the Grumpy Old Geeks say, we shouldn't always build in someone else's back yard. I'm glad you have your own website and written guides too. ✍️🧑‍🎤 I've seen a couple of amazing martial arts type channels close after 15 years of YouTube. Amazing content just lost because of some trolls and channel random Bans. Sorry to say there are some awful YTers our there who might get jealous of another channels success and do nefarious things in their spare time... or in this case, some con artist trying to steal. 🥸✖️ Any ways.. keep up the great work Russ. 🦾 My friend always says : "Rather be a soldier tending to his flower garden, than an unprepared farmer running off to the war field".🍀⚔️ Preparations and Awareness, doesn't mean paranoid, just good sense. 💪

So glad to see you back on YT! Must be quite the relief for you 😅 I would be interested to hear some details how this could happen with 2FA set up, I used to feel very safe with my Google account having a unique, long password + 2FA. Getting my Google account hacked would be my worst nightmare 😱
