<------This guy is an idiot
I posted a parody song on YT about 2 weeks ago and yesturday i typed in the title on YT to see how far up it was on the list and noticed another channel had put the vid on theres. I never got asked or anything, is this a good thing, I only have 44 subs atm and this channel has 500 subs and over 4 million vid views in total, am worried they will get the credit, but also excited cuz this could boost my profile up.

What Should i do?
 
what i would do is contact them and tell them to make sure they make a note that it isn't there video and ask them to give you credit by simply posting a link to the original video and your channel in the description box.

yeh good idea man, thanx for the advise :)
 
Man that's scary... I hate thinking about people stealing my comment. I hope they cooperate with you.
 
I would do as Victor said, if youre fine with them keeping it up with credit to you then I would also look into tagging it so your original has the chance of showing up next to it, maybe have your title include the word Original or something like that.

yeah that's scary, if it goes viral you lose all that adsense, he REEEALLY needs to respond to you and work something out. I think there's a way you can claim it if he won't respond to you.
