The Laois man feared the worst when he lost access to his channel last week, and the content immediately changed.
A midlands motoring journalist is back up and running after his YouTube account was hacked.
Bob Flavin received notification control over his channel had changed last weekend, and he lost access to his account.
The content on the motoring channel then changed to Tesla-branded coverage of Bitcoin.
But, the Portlaoise man took to social media to confirm he has regained access to his YouTube account, and is back to posting his usual content.
UPDATE: We are back up and running, my youtube channel lives https://t.co/tYj5a7HqXE
