Among those things were uploading pictures of disabled and sick children on Ask.fm to get attention, and doing a lot of spamming. He reached a point where he lost his friends because of the way he was, as he was willing to do anything for likes.

Fight with Dosogas[]

The only one Yao gets along with is Juanpa (although he's a former member).

Identity Theft[]
In August 2019, youtuber Luisito Comunica made a video in which he proposed to meet a 60-year-old man named Sergio Ramírez to invite him to travel with him, since according to a comment, Sergio did not know the sea and had never left the country. It was later discovered that Sergio Ramírez was a veterinarian from Cuernavaca, Mexico. This had a great impact among Luisito Comunica's fans, and even well-known YouTubers began to look for him and made multiple videos on the subject, and even Sergio Ramírez's channel reached one million subscribers in less than 20 days
On August 21, 2019, a 16-year-old Uruguayan named Emanuel Riveiro "hacked" Sergio Ramírez's channel with 1M subs, and uploaded a video explaining that his intention was for Sergio to communicate with Luisito, but later it is said that Yao Cabrera bought the channel from Emanuel Rivieiro in exchange for an Instagram account with more than 100,000 subscribers. Emanuel made some videos with Yao Cabrera but apparently Yao set him up, and decided to hire an actor to impersonate Sergio Ramírez and upload videos to Sergio's channel, which said that if they wanted to know the truth they would download an application called Firework, with which Yao Cabrera made money. More than 3 videos were recorded, one was even recorded at a veterinarian, and he even edited an image of Emanuel Riveiro and put it as if it were a reflection to accuse him. In addition, the links that Yao put on Sergio Ramírez's channel were links to his videos (including Jefes de YouTube, his recent song that has more dislikes than likes) thus giving him fame and money.
