Over the last few years, content creators who have managed to garner a large following have had to deal with people \u201cstealing\u201d their videos and uploading them as a way to make money on YouTube or TikTok. Tech-toker Carterpcs has had to deal with it quite a bit, having found a YouTube channel \u201cstealing\u201d his videos in early 2023. On December 30, Carter was curious how many subscribers said channel had acquired and was left shocked after finding out they are doing better than he is. YouTuber learns fake account has more subs than he does \u201cRemember that YouTube account that was stealing all of my videos?\u201d he asked. \u201cI thought this morning, I wonder how that account is doing nowadays.\u201d Seconds after opening the channel page, Carter was left shocked after realizing the account had 253k subscribers \u2014 20k more than he does on his own account. The advantage that the fake account has is that he\u2019s using the same username as Carter\u2019s TikTok page, while the real account is \u2018actuallycarterpcs.\u2019 With over a quarter of a million subs on YouTube, this means that whoever is behind that account has managed to get a 100k subscriber plaque from the company with Carter\u2019s name on it \u2013 and is making several thousand dollars a month using the Tech-Tokers content. Carter revealed that he messaged the person behind the account and revealed his intent to file a lawsuit, only to have the user say that there were no grounds to sue him. \u201cHe won, he\u2019s better than me man,\u201d the TikToker said.
