The latest massive youtube sponsor seems to be data broker removal services. As a rule of thumb is if I see the same sponsor more than 3 times it’s just a scam.

But as I’ve recently become assaulted with scam calls due to trying to find a different job the prospect of services like these seem to be more and more enticing.

What do you all think? Is actually a service?

    Well, they sell you a service to accomplish a result you could easily achieve yourself by thinking for 5 seconds before acting, on an easily-forgettable subscription model, and there’s literally no way to verify that they took any actual action on your behalf or that there was ever any action that needed to be taken in the first place… Yeah, seems legit.
