The legitimacy of partnership offers being made in Opera’s name has been a topic of discussion among the public. This particular fraud, as they have observed, is aimed at smaller YouTube creators in order to obtain their contact information and then receive some sort of payment.
The company’s executives are well aware of these scams. Opera is not in any way connected with those who launch or run these offers.
How to protect yourself from the Opera GX scam?
The content creators are contacted through the agencies they work with when collaborating with Opera GX. As a result, examining the email address used to submit the proposal is one way to verify the validity of such offers.
If you’re contacted by one of the firms Opera works with, they will always declare themselves to be such, you can verify the sender of any particular message for safety’s sake using LinkedIn.
If you’ve been contacted by someone claiming to be from Opera GX and have questions, you can reach officials by sending an email to gx-media@opera.com for confirmation. Don’t forget to attach a screenshot if you ever get an email from scammers.
