“I have lived at peace with everyone and I have always stayed on my lane; I don't know why anyone would do this to me! You hack my YouTube account, change the name and even worse you delete it,” she wrote.

Marua further posted a screenshot of a statement from the streaming platform following the suspicious activity from her account.

 “We have permanently removed your channel from YouTube. Going forward you won’t be able to access, possess, or create any other YouTube channels,” stated YouTube in the statement.
