Clumsy YouTube Scammers Lack OpsSec Skills.

YouTube survey scams have gained popularity, but the criminals behind it seem to be more versed in social engineering than in operational security. The pattern of the scam is similar to campaigns observed on Facebook, where victims are lured into clicking on a link – usually with the promise of a substantial prize – that takes them in a merry-go-round of short links to surveys aimed at collecting their personal information.
The scammers appear to often leave their servers wide open, allowing researchers to access all the content, monitor their activity and collect information for identifying indicators.
