I am sorry if I am in the wrong category for this, please move me if I am. I am on tap talk on my phone so it is a little confusing.

Instead of rewriting this i copied what I wrote to youtube in an email. I got a response saying they no longer read emails. Before you go posting on the guys videos about this, please understand I know him in real life. Please don't comment on his videos or anything. I am just looking for advice on how to get him reported so he learns from his mistakes. I want this to be anonymous.

He re uploaded the videos
And took all of the credit. I can't put the email here because yt talk doesn't allow links so I will explain it as best as I can. One of the videos was a minecraft build and he said in the description that he built it himself. Another video he just added his name into the front of the video intro and took all of the credit. What can I do?
 
I have moved this to the Copyright, Claims, Strikes & Legal Discussions section of the forum for you :)
 
I think the rule is that you can only report a video if you own it, so other people can't report it. In other words, if it gets taken down for copyright, the person will know you did it. So choices are, get the video taken down and possibly make an enemy, or ignore it and let him keep the credit. Either way, it's a lose-lose situation if you're dealing with someone you actually know.

He stole the videos from two different people, neither of which are me. Is there a way I can report him for this because I tried contacting these people and they have not responded.

Ah, okay. I don't think you can report him yourself, you'd have to keep trying to contact the people he stole videos from. Youtube private messages are usually a bad way to get in touch with people, if they have a Twitter, Facebook, or some other social media, try to private message them there or something. Otherwise, there's no way that I know of.
