Hijack of Supreme Court of India's YouTube Account

On September 20, the Supreme Court of India's YouTube account was hijacked and used to broadcast a fake XRP investment video featuring Ripple Labs CEO Brad Garlinghouse. The hackers rebranded the channel and deleted all previous content.

Fraudulent Content and Subsequent Actions

YouTube took down the compromised account on the same day. The Supreme Court of India issued a public notice informing about the incident and later announced that the account had been successfully recovered.
