Someone is using my name

If you're being impersonated with and they're using similar avatar and thumbnails then I'd say report them but I believe plenty of channels have same or similar names.
 
Anybody know VanossGaming? If you don't, check him out because he's a great YouTuber.

Anyway, Vanoss has one of the most intelligent impersonators I've seen. The channel is called YanossGaming which at first glance someone who knows Vanoss will assume is legitimate. This channel uploads the exact same content with the exact same thumbnails and with the exact same channel art. The channel has been going for a while and racks up a tonne of views. He's disabled the comment sections so nobody can even let other viewers know he's a scheme.

Oh, wait...I just checked for the channel and it seems to have finally been taken down. Oh, well. It's still a legitimate example of a problem on YouTube. Take the fact that Yanoss has been delt with as a beacon of hope that you may someday be free of these impersonators! Although...He is a big channel...maybe that is why...

Have you checked the impersonators' profiles? Look at their email addresses to see if you recognize their names. Maybe it's just a prank. My friend, Zeppz had a friend of his post flaming comments on all of his videos under an anonymous account so this stuff does happen.

I hope this doesn't start causing complications for the growth of your channel!
