Hijacked YouTube Channel
Paul Wilson
I've been an eLearning designer and developer since 2005. In 2015 I started my own eLearning design company. I began creating Adobe Captivate video tutorials to help promote my business through my YouTube channel at https://youtube.com/captivateteacher. My intention with my YouTube videos was to attract attention from organizations looking for a skilled Captivate developer. This strategy proved successful as I've worked with clients worldwide, helping them build highly engaging eLearning solutions. In addition, my YouTube channel presented another benefit of attracting aspiring Captivate developers to seek me out as a teacher. I now offer online and onsite training on Adobe Captivate, teaching users the skills to build engaging and interactive learning.

Summary

I just wanted to let everyone know that my YouTube account was hijacked.

I have regained access to my Google account. However, while the hijacker has control of my YouTube channel, they violated the terms with YouTube and got my channel taken down. I’m in the process of getting the account restored. In the meantime, any posts with embedded YouTube videos will look blank instead of displaying the video in question. Please be patient while I get this hopefully resolved.

Update – Thanks to the team at YouTube, I was able to get my YouTube channel restored.
