I've actually had this issue myself. It was a rogue chrome extension that was racking up massive viewing numbers on these videos. Disable all your extensions and see if your problem stops.

That's... interesting. I wonder if it's a hustle. Buy a Chrome extension, sell "YT views", use unsuspecting victims to siphon their YT cookie and rack up fake views. Maybe?
