Pakistani YouTuber Haris Sultan claims he was duped by an Indian video editor who changed his channel name to ‘Scumbag Begger’.
A Pakistani-born YouTuber claims he made the mistake of hiring a video editor from India who insulted him for imaginatively misspelling the name of his YouTube channel. The YouTuber, identified as Haris Sultan, took to X (formerly Twitter) to reveal what had happened to his channel. Sultan stated that he hired a cheap video editor from India who tried to scam him out of money and when he refused to pay, he changed the name of his channel to “Scumbag Begger”.
It also tagged YouTube support and claimed that it would take 14 days for the platform to resolve the issue.
After the post went viral, YouTube responded by commenting, @TheHarrisSultan fully understands your frustration, we’ve sent you a DM with the next steps. The name of the YouTube channel of a person of Pakistani origin has been restored to Haris Sultan.
