    EDiT: I DUNNO WHY THE MODS DECIDED TO MOVE THIS THREAD FROM "THE OFF TOPIC GENERAL DISCUSSION THREAD" AND INTO THE VIDEO GAMES AND TECHNOLOGY THREAD WHERE THERE ARE OTHER YT THREADS IN THE GENERAL DISCUSSION.

    Hey folks just wondering but I've been seeing that exact comment/post ("Wanna be friends") on alot of Channels I visit on YT as of late. I also recently looked it up on Google/YT and some ppl have stated it's a Bot that posts these and if you interact with the "Wanna Be Friends"Bot,that it can give you a virus and Hack your Account. I'm not tech savvy or anything but is that possible??
    I originally thought it was like a Meme or something like that as a Joke but dunno to be honest.
    What do you think? Thoughts? Spread the word.

    No one really knows. Just use common sense though. Don't click suspicious links or engage with suss comments and what not.

    I've met some great friends that way. And just as soon as this money comes in from Nigeria I'm flying out to meet my online girlfriend.
