Please HELP! My Youtube Account has been Hacked!


Question

Hello everyone. I have a Youtube account and recently I noticed that somebody hacked into it and ruined my "subscription ajax". I am desperate to fix this problem and I need your help. People are able to subscribe to me, but when I try to subscribe back to them, the Javascript says "disabled" and it will not allow me to subscribe. I was looking around online and found this website about how to hack accounts with a Javascript code and I think that this is what has been done to my account :

Does anyone know how to undo or fix this problem? There is no solution that I found online and I am hoping that you guys might have a Javascript code to fix this. Thanks in advance!! :)

I don't think I need to remind anyone not to click that - reported.

What are you talking about? I am just coming here for help. I cannot believe that you would report it when I am just trying to show people what has been done to my account. All I am looking for is some help to fix this. Thanks anyway.

Yeah, double posting is not allowed on Neowin. I closed the thread and placed a link to this discussion. Please keep that in mind.

Thanks.

I checked the javascript code you posted. Doubt that's your problem, as that javascript, while being highly questionable as to it's possible effectiveness (Really...? Doesn't youtube check your login infos before you try to spoof people unsubscribing!?), this doesn't seem to be your problem.

If they can subscribe to you and you can't, giving an error about javascript, I can see one of two things:

1- You either really have javascript disabled in your browser

2- You use some kind of javascript blocker addon such as that Firefox addon I just can't remember off the top of my head

Hi!! Thank you very much for taking the time to help me. I appreciate you checking out that code and giving me your feedback on what the issue could be. I will look on my browser to see if my Javascript is disabled and I will check to see if I have some kind of Javascript blocker. Thanks so much again for your help. Have a great day!! :)

Could just be a hiccup. Have you notified Youtube about it?

Hi!! Thanks for your response. Yes, I did try to notify Youtube about it, but they only have the "Report a Bug" feature and I sent multiple messages about the issue with no response. I have heard that they are not good with customer service.

@Marshall - Rebooting and Resetting are two very different things, the latter would lead to a complete flush/reset of his router, which means he'd lose his network settings, etc. It would be restored to the condition it came in. I'd stick to a simple reboot.

@OP - Have you tried asking someone else to log in from your ID from another computer to see if it works? To me the problems seem to be with your computer and not your account. I'd do that if I were you, so atleast you can narrow down on the problem.

    • If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
    • 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 "to fund healthcare and tuition" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Who do you think you are talking about, some COMMUNIST? We are better than them, doG bless Murica!!! p.s. I'm from a country where government does exactly that, i.e. not form US.
    • Apparently not. I know it is on Edge for business at the moment, but how long will it be before it become on the home version of Edge?
