Our YouTube Channel Got Hacked… What Happened?! | Vlog 193

Last week, our YouTube Narrowboat channel was hacked. Nearly 200 videos… built over 6 years… were suddenly taken over and replaced with a scam livestream. In this video, we explain exactly what happened, how the hackers got in, and what we’ve learned from the experience. We also share what you should look out for and how to protect your own account—because this can happen faster than you think. Thankfully, we’ve now regained access and are in the process of restoring everything, but it’s been a real wake-up call. If this helps even one person avoid going through the same thing, it’s worth sharing. 👉 If you’d like to support us, please like, comment, and share this video—it really helps us recover. 🏆 We’ve also been nominated for the UK Influencer Awards 2026 (Long Form category).
