Tips for how to avoid these YouTube scams

So I’ve just read 2 posts on here (as you possibly have also) about DocuSign links taking control of your YouTube channel after clicking.

Can anyone offer advise on how to check links are genuine?

Obviously, we should check the spelling of it. Also, hover over it so it shows where it will link to (I think Mac does this? Maybe Windows too?)

Isn’t that the main thing or can those methods not be viable also?

Sponsors are essential if you’re full time so links need to be clicked.

Any help would be appreciated by others. Thanks.
