SonaDrawzStuffYT (born: October 31, 2001)[2] is an American artist who focuses on making Roblox commentary and speedpaint content. She also used to make animatics for other games as well, such as Undertale and Yandere Simulator before eventually moving on as a commentary YouTuber.
Getting hacked
On August 26, 2020, her YouTube account was hacked, due to a fake sponsorship deal shortly after she reached a milestone of 100K. The 'company', AKA "Holly | Manager" as described by Sona, had emailed her, undercover as a small indie team under Steam.
They told her to download a file, claiming it was their game, but it instead took over her YouTube account information. They then started making fake Elon Musk Bitcoin scam live streams, as well as taking down all of her videos. Her YouTube channel was then followed by being terminated soon after many reports.
She got her account back on September 1, 2020.
Sona reported her status on many Twitter posts upon being hacked, as well as many other Roblox YouTubers and developers reaching out to her with support for her and her situation, such as Flamingo and MiniToon. There were also many YouTube videos made about her account being stolen, some notably by big YouTubers such as KonekoKitten and ChloeGames.
Once she got her account back, she created a video following what happened, called: "My Roblox Youtube Channel was HACKED and TERMINATED". Since then of this era, she has received immense amounts of support and new followers with the help of her good friends.
Unknown Video
On May 12, 2021. A video named "(Gore Warning) Up in the room" was uploaded to her account, however it was deleted the next day by Youtube moderation, most likely because of how much dark humour and blood it contained. This video shows an image of her character sitting in her chair, but her mouth with gore inside, some people claim to have a backup of this video, but no actual proof has been uploaded or shown online.[citation needed]
