Inside The Insidious World of Influencer Scams (Ft. The Right Opinion)

hello guys and gals me moody horror and i am angry why are all of these [ __ ] influencers doing this dude i want to bring attention to a scheme that has been growing in popularity amongst youtubers the hottest newest coin of 2021 is dink doing save the kids coin milf token stanley nickel token i know i haven't posted in a while guys this has gone so beyond social media drama at this point like there's legal implications for these guys okay aren't you guys supposed to be playing video games yeah that's great yeah how'd this whole thing start how did it end up here [Music] basically because of me straight up i'm not gonna lie to you guys we're all being kicked out i'm sorry no way yeah bro all like everyone but me right no see what if there's one thing youtubers love it's delivering consistently quality content to their adoringly dedicated audiences oh wait no it's money at this point the term influencer may as well just be synonymous with forcing thousands of fans to wait outside in the california heat as you charge them 70 dollars for condoms right tana i do i like it it's just like i never forget i mean after locking a fake wedding with jake paul behind a 50 pay wall who else to trust with your finances than a stand-up gal like tana mongoose and i looked at my teacher and i go you're a [ __ ] and she was like and all the parents were like which is why it makes total sense for tana to promote only the most lucrative and promising cryptocurrencies on the market to its coin the coin she created herself with the aim of putting money into your pocket or is something along those lines you believe my ownership in titscoin just bought me this beautiful rolls royce get yours now let's see what the coin is worth now shall we oh oh hey that's a big drop so unless you bought in here and sold off exactly here something tells me you aren't exactly pushing a rolls royce right now but since early 2021 it seems just about every influencer and celebrity in the book has developed a keen sense for the crypto market nickel is an erc20 token on the ethereum blockchain including deflationary and frictionless yield mechanics begging the question of what does someone like kim kardashian who once wore mirrored sunglasses to a poker game know about the complicated world of trading ethereum max well that's something i want to figure out today but just in case you're new to any of this i think it's best if we start from the beginning [Music] now to a wild ride on wall street that seems to have just come right out of the blue this morning it's all just wanting by wall street it's making me sick several large hedge funds were severely wounded in the process there's nothing normal about what you're seeing when it comes to this stock right now crazy they call this insane 700 this month the gamestop is worth over 10 billion dollars at last count talents here we don't know where they're doing but um i actually think uh her that they're smarter than we think after hemorrhaging sales for the past decade and having its corpse pissed on by a literal plague the declining game retailer gamestop took an unexpected turn when its stock value skyrocketed to a whopping record of 487 dollars per share in january of 2021 after being dead in the water for the past however many years no analyst could have ever seen this coming so why did it happen i'm no expert when it comes to stocks or money in general for that matter i just dropped 124 bucks on kanye merch for an album that isn't even out yet but i do know that when a company is destined to fail there will be those who try and make a little money on the way out which is exactly what happened with the game stuff powerful wall street hedge funds filled with former frat guys were essentially betting on gamestop's inevitable failure they were shorting it to put in the most simple terms possible the more money the company lost the more money went into the pockets of conniving wall street investors it happens constantly only this time a third party happened to intervene reddit a new generation of investors using their phones fueled by the wall street bets group on brexit it's been a wake-up call uh in their words um the investment subreddit wall street bets quickly picked up on just how much shorting was going on not just with gamestop but amc theaters and blackberry to name a few more that's when they realized just how much chaos they could cause if they collectively chose to pump these failing companies higher in value so the three million redditor army quickly began buying up as many shares as possible causing the markets to implode turning a decent profit and [ __ ] over greedy hedge funds in the process it's beautiful really i can't even be mad suddenly discord moderators from all over the country were able to spoil their hopefully of aged kittens with illustrious earnings pocketed from pumping stocks like nokia but seeing so many elite wall street crooks crying on national television made it all worth it i got a great idea bans social networks to talk about buying short stocks uh right that's their next move right if you logged on to anything that day you'd see regular investors kids even actually getting rich off stocks at the expense of powerful entities and the sooner you got on board the bigger return you made i have a kid who bought a house he had he made fifty thousand dollars and bought a house leaving everyone in the nearby vicinity on the hunt for the next big meme stock to get behind and i have a feeling you know what they landed on [Music] [Applause] well no the doge father oh okay you know father created as a joke in 2013 the cryptocurrency dogecoin surged nearly 800 percent after tesla ceo elon king of the neckbeards musk tweeted this image on january 28 2021 maybe out of spite for bitcoin or just stats of market manipulation fun elon quickly became the face of the doge movement as evident by their applies to any of his tweets by the way if anyone believes in elon after he clowned everyone on doge like you're a sucker that guy completely took your money oh yeah he [ __ ] owned you believe it or not i actually owned a tiny bit of doge myself at the very beginning of the year until selling it before the peak of seven cents which later rose to a grand 70 cents in may so if i had held my original investment i'd be rich but it's cool it's fine i'm not mad at all why do you act but then again if the value of an entire currency can be leveled by a single tweet from grimes's husband it probably shouldn't be pouring your life savings into it all that to say that admittedly putting money into dogecoin or any other crypto that does not contain actual utility is more or less just gambling which isn't bad on its own but being aware of this reality is crucial so you don't make any super brash decisions that hurt you financially the spontaneous burst of success from a coin like doge was a rare event a fluke that left early investors rich and gave everyone else a case of fomo the fear of missing out in the future could lightning really strike twice what if something like doge happens again that is exactly the question many celebrities and influencers have been quick to take advantage of it's early if it is a ponzi get in on the ground floor but i'll tell you what isn't a scam the incredibly generous

out with the channel now to the british guy move over dogecoin which featured the face of a shiva inu dog now there's cat coin which was thought up by no one other than carol baskin it's not a currency we call it a currency that's right the owner of big cat rescue who found fame through netflix's tiger king is getting into the crypto craze [Music] yeah so remember that painfully unlikable character from tiger king no the other one no the other one the other one there we go carol baskin who absolutely did not and would never dream of killing her husband has taken a rather surprising plunge into the crypto space with her own spin on dogecoin aptly dubbed cat coin or scat coin as i keep reading it not the most genius marketing but that's to be expected considering everything about this project seems about as rushed and unplanned as possible i'm sure it's all just a coincidence that cat coin hit the market only three days before doge was expected to reach record highs thanks to elon's snl performance big cat rescue says it will also launch non-fungible tokens in the next two weeks with future plants including a big cat metaverse for virtual visits with the cats with virtual visits can you not already watch live streams of tigers online for free you know what never mind at least the nfts sound promising you know hopefully we get to see more of this oddly sexual furry art style in the future gonna make me act up but what about any of this makes it a scam maybe carol actually has hopes of her own cat coin going to the moon one day obviously not today as it's been hitting record lows since may 19th make sure you know that you can lose money yeah no [ __ ] kidding but as stated in an interview with cnn carol is still deeply concerned about the volume of us dollars that are being printed and distributed with nothing to back them up which is a lot of words for a former dancing with the stars contestant but still actually pretty sound reasoning on its face with every crypto transaction being sent and received through the extremely secure digital ledger some say blockchain technology may actually reimagine the way we use money the need for banks may one day be a thing of the past but i can promise you this the future of finance will hardly be paved by a project like scatcoin tokens like bitcoin and ethereum are always going to reign supreme thanks to their high volume and name recognition not to mention the slew of real-life international projects they've already been attached to for years so i wouldn't exactly be banking on some random fringe token spontaneously conjured up by a hacked tv star speaking of kanye west's wife or ex-wife or new one i have no idea anymore but i can't say i see anything wrong with kim kay sharing her abundant crypto wisdom with a following of 248 million only a slight responsibility there you think but at least she's out here promoting one of the more mainstream tokens ethereum max what the [ __ ] is ethereum max okay so it's literally just a blatant scam not to be confused with the more popular coin ethereum ethereum max has only named that so people get confused and think the two are somehow associated when they aren't in fact according to coindesk ethereum max requires very little technical skill to make which is alarming enough on its own but you really think kim kardashian's following of millennial white women know that they're just gonna take her endorsement at face value because she's kim kardashian a literal billionaire whose word will naturally be placed on a pedestal just by proxy of being kim kardashian this is not financial advice look okay online nothing ever good comes after those words i wonder who exactly these friends of hers are and how much they must be paying her for this story post because the way this thing reads there's no way there wasn't a fat wad of cash behind it in reality it's difficult for crypto experts to say how a project like ethereum max even works both on account of how new it is and how the emacs website only contains intentionally vague buzzwords under the community perks tab see they don't show you the whole graph either right like this looks fine until you go to the all-time section and hey it's worthless and it's not like they're the most transparent about the developers or the team behind this project either another glaring red flag to take note of because with less faces attached to the project the less chance of scrutiny and potential blowback down the line the only faces i can see are those of household names like kim k and floyd mayweather who already scammed about a million people into paying for a fake boxing match with the guy from law and order legalized bank robbery yeah you can't argue there these are people being paid anywhere from six to seven figures per sponsorship based on previous reports i mean floyd didn't exactly disclose he was being paid for wearing an e-max shirt but it wouldn't be the first time he's left out that key detail now wouldn't when he was fined over 600 thousand dollars by the sec in 2018 for promoting some random token called cintro which shockingly turned out to be a fraud the creator that little number got locked up for eight years after advertising fake partnerships with visa and mastercard so just keep that in mind when hearing about certain crypto ventures from dudes who spent their entire careers getting socked in the head chances are many celebrities wouldn't be doing this type of promo if there wasn't something substantial in it for them a pretty grim prospect when you consider who exactly these people are affecting they're fans who are not multi-billionaires loyal supporters are being duped into thinking their investment is going to make them rich when really all they're doing is maxing out their losses see what i didn't use the ethereum max maxing out never openly playing with someone's livelihood is just sick and to be at that level of financial freedom and still have the gall to treat your audience like piggy banks is just grotesque with some of them being more obvious than others [Music] what would a good bump and dump scheme b without a literal actual convicted criminal at the forefront jordan belfort a former wall street goon who continues to write off the popularity of his scorsese film in a last-ditch effort to cling onto any sense of remaining relevance he can you have an oral contract with your management the fordham company is that an attempt to hide your income next question i think you can air what you want here out of this interview it's done in addition to befriending other non-fraudsters he's also got a tick tock if you hate capitalism that much then why don't you move to venezuela but take a piece of [ __ ] bread with you because you have to wait in line one way to get one wow badass dude you ripped families apart in the 90s and continue to [ __ ] over your annoying fans on twitter via half-baked crypto schemes the american dream in action literally the very real plot of the movie consisted of jordan and his team of gargoyles manipulating regular naive people into buying niche penny stocks they knew full well would underperform and in turn make them rich he is a genuine con man and has gone to prison for his practices yet people will still listen to him on random [ __ ] coins like moon boys moon boys what even is that dude what's his view about the moon are boys in it's just annoying to see otherwise extremely privileged and well-off celebrities so shamelessly jeopardizing the financial states of their fans if it means making a quick buck but it doesn't just end with giant names like kim kardashian remember what i was saying earlier about youtubers chillin in my lambo stacking crypto how the [ __ ] did we get here after not posting for an entire year the notorious doin heartthrob in blackface enthusiast bart baker made his sudden return to instagram with a jarring music video promotion of the french crypto coin poli doge not to be confused with dogecoin that everyone and their grandma knows about today see just like ethereum max the name polly doge is derived from a far more successful crypto endeavor in a sinister attempt to trick the average buyer into thinking this must somehow be related to dogecoin it isn't obviously and the only thing more disgusting than piggybacking off the success of a coin with a way bigger market cap is duping your remaining handful of fans into thinking it'll grow by a thousand times and let me tell you since this video was posted it hasn't but it's not the price alone that determines whether or not a coin is a scam a big factor includes its volume or the sum total of actual trades taking place the volume of a coin is typically a good indicator of how much general interest a project has the higher the volume the easier it is to trade and make money for example the volume of bitcoin is around 30 billion with ethereum at 23 billion even doge is still sitting around 1 billion today so to put it simply a coin with especially low volume is basically worthless regardless of the actual token price and when we look at polydoge a project with barely any information on it whatsoever it's no surprise the volume is so staggeringly low compared to the billions i just mentioned hardly anyone cares about this coin because nobody knows about it which is why developers and scammers need influencers maybe not barb baker specifically since i can't prove he's been paid to promote poly doge but it's at least very clear to see the volume rise on the same day bart had a popular tweet blasting elon and promoting the coin in the same breath the influx in volume is what particularly gives scammers the chance to dump their coins and make a profit again i have no way of proving bart's involvement in the project or his real intentions here but to me it's still pretty questionable any way you look at it as paulie doge has been hitting record lows in recent months it's certainly not uncommon for giant names to promote potential ponzi schemes for the sake of obtaining the bag okay you put 40 000 bucks into safe moon you made a big production out of it i think safe moon is down a little bit since then but uh where are you on safe moon now i mean and you ever gonna sell was that a euphemism i'm down fifty percent stuart not a little bit i'm down fifty percent no i'm never gonna sell this man has diamond hands and i said i was doing it for the long term so it's been a little rocky road but that's the nature of the beast when you get involved with these type coins safe moon will eventually land on the moon and i'll be there to throw a yacht party when it does but it's down yeah and it stayed down but the good news is if you were to ask this guy if he thinks it could be a scam he wouldn't even lie to you the answer is safe mode safe moon is now in the dave portnoy business and vice versa why i don't know [ __ ] why it could be a ponzi scheme i like the word moon because that's where i want to go i don't think that all these celebrities who make headlines about the crypto market are really helping you know elon musk sends the thing up and down all over the place you've done that too you've made headlines you are a celebrity and you've made some headlines but you've whipsawed a lot of investors i don't think you celebrities saying this kind of thing are doing that much good for the market in the long run when i made my safe moon it jumped and then it comes back down i agree with you that is not a super long-term impact unless you stick with it over the long term but it turns out safe mood may not be as safe as you think see like many of the tokens we have and will continue to discuss today safe moon was developed with one purpose scampi a gamble gamble safe moon adds nothing to the world it isn't meant to putting a hundred dollars into it is like buying a hundred dollar lottery ticket sure it might be fun and the low price may draw you in but that's where it really gets ya the so-called potential it has to make you rich all right so let's say you invest only like 30 right so you take that 30 times the current value of this coin right now and you get about roughly 19 million coins so let's say this thing goes up to about just one cent your potential almost two hundred thousand dollars now what this tick tock man doesn't tell you is that in order for safe moon to reach one penny that would make the market cap of safe moon six trillion dollars triple the entire crypto market so what sounds like super simple uh would break crypto so it's not going anywhere good to know but it's not like any of that matters to dave porn toy over here he's promoting it on fox news solely so he can move the markets like elon i mean he [ __ ] said it i think musk is manipulating the market and i think you're doing exactly the same thing i wish i could do it to the degree that elon does it i wish i had his power there's no doubt he's manipulating it and i wish i could to the degree he does uh can we just take some time to acknowledge that 40 000 is only worth about point zero three percent of dave portnoy's entire net worth so if he loses that he'll just make it back in a day i mean the dude hasn't exactly been coy about losing 700k on similar ventures in the past it's almost like the guy who brought us the worst podcast in the world isn't the wealth of knowledge his chad fans think he is you know god damn well you gave him chlamydia and you are going to go up to him and be like i cannot believe you gave me the clap you dirty [ __ ] how could you do this to me why would you do this to me wow and then they don't know what to do because if you i mean girl girls it works if you follow any rat pages on tick tock twitter or instagram you may know a little bit about aiden roth the 20 year old twitch streamer whose content mostly consists of enthusiastic screaming into a microphone despite posting since approximately 2014 aidan's twitch saw a rapid growth in early 2020 when he befriended fellow streamer and son of lebron james brony by betting thousands of dollars on games of nba 2k even quickly grabbed the attention of huge audiences and built his platforms up to a total of 1.85 million subscribers on youtube 2.1 million followers on instagram and 4.8 million on twitch where he routinely plays video games freestyles along popular rappers and chats with fellow content creators i'm famous you're in trouble why oh [ __ ] that crypto [ __ ] on may 26 of 2021 aiden ross became amongst many prevalent online figures to promote a cryptocurrency scam to his fans one by the name of milf token yeah i know very funny very funny see as long as you give it a little quirky name you can get away with promoting anything right after being paid what was confirmed to be a total of two hundred thousand dollars for a single sponsorship many began to question the intentions behind that of a coin like milf or you know we could just ask aiden himself what he thinks chad by the way that milf token [ __ ] i did while back i already told you guys don't buy that [ __ ] i got paid a bag do that [ __ ] like i don't give a [ __ ] how you guys actually bought it [Laughter] that's right just mere weeks after going in front of an audience of 75 000 teenage height beasts aiden clarified he had been paid a fat bag for the promo and that he hopes none of his fans had actually bought into it a complete 180 on the sentiment we heard from him during the actual promo but uh yeah let me uh let me go ahead and buy let me buy a milf real quick i want to buy one buy some milf here we go uh i'm gonna buy some milf and i'm gonna basically buy some milf and it's milf and basically uh what does it mean insufficient suns all right yeah so how do i buy the milf okay so basically go to the website click uh buy on unison click buy on unit swap on the website yeah click yeah yes now usdc select a token click usdc after a seemingly brain dead admission of guilds it didn't take long for bigger streamers to smell blood in the water creators ethan klein and his son [ __ ] were quick to level critique against aiden and soon enough the two would confront the 20 year old in a bizarre confusing mess of an interrogation i don't know bro like i just feel like you just don't like me i don't know right okay we can talk about that i'm a human being like i made mistakes but but i wanted to show you this one clip can i flip camera or yeah you can okay i'm on a phone bear with me sorry guys oh this is [ __ ] this is tech dan take note of this i know i'm really sorry just watch this clip right here this is my promo i just want to say real quick they wish that they never did this with me let me just show you why uh yeah all right chad uh i got some more things to say about milk so let's see like if i was a brand and i paid somebody to do that i just did it horribly i didn't know what i was doing bro playing but a poorly done scam doesn't exactly negate it being a scam if people had lost money it would have been a pump and dump but because the price stayed about the same it wasn't i don't know it's just insane to me you pay attention to every [ __ ] statistic at every minute of the day through that after i did that [ __ ] it went down so listen it was not pumping up nothing right as some have been quick to point out the defining trait of a scam cryptocurrency isn't the price alone but the prospect of actually finding a buyer which as we established earlier is where hiring these giant influencers comes into the picture it's pretty obvious to see at this point that although the price didn't fluctuate much the volume it definitely did on the very day adam promoted it meaning that regardless of how bad he considers the advertisement to be he still allowed milf scammers to dump all of their coins onto his unsuspecting fan base make a huge profit himself and then still plead innocent because the price stayed the same i can't tell if aiden is stupid manipulative or just a little bit of both that actually yeah probably that last one yeah and i know and i already know you you probably hate me based off of like what happened with the whole milf token and stuff but it wasn't a pump and dump i wanted to show you this clip from my live stream let me just show you this to uh just to clarify no you said i'm a piece of [ __ ] but the very least he could do is show a sliver of accountability after it's been proven that his followers got scammed rather than pleading naivete saying it couldn't possibly be a scam and just moving on with his normal streams alongside soulja boy wait a second wait a second but i don't want this to seem like just a [ __ ] on aiden ross party plenty of other creators are just as responsible for shilling this joke of a coin to their respective audiences too other creators with questionable moral compasses you guys know i've been investing in a lot of cryptocurrency lately and one coin recently that came up i actually saw from jake paul as well it's called milf it's insane guys i 25 x my investment which is just nuts but how did people like the paul brothers or rice gum even gain such a reputation in the first place well i tell you but i gotta go get drunk enough to deal with the second part of this video so in the meantime i'll leave it up to my brilliantly eloquent side piece take it away babe hey hey it's me the right opinion thank you jorbry for introducing me wherever in this video because the hoe didn't specify but fortunately he did give me a brief on what i'm to talk about so without further ado let's talk about ricegum and the paul brothers my favorite set of people and the spirit of scamming audiences let's do the most obvious crooks ricegum and jake paul our accomplished kings of the youtube rap game and part-time content creators on top of that on the cast for 2019 they both posted content about what are known as mystery boxes basically a box you don't actually know the content of when you purchase it it's a bit of a raffle this website was known as mystery brand using branding that bears a somewhat uncanny resemblance to the supreme logo another company known for their high regard of the consumer basically we partnered with this brand uh called mysterybrand.net so basically we partnered with them because they're like the best and they have like the dopest site and they have all of the dopest products and stuff like that like on their site you could literally win like a rolls royce royce you can win a bunch of supreme stuff you can win iphones ipads all sorts of good and we partnered with them because today i am going to spend thousands of dollars on mystery boxes and see what i get in jake paul's video he very vocally states that they are partnering with the site maybe two vocally but brownie points for that much on the other hand ricegum mentions it so fleetingly in a sentence that i didn't even notice the first time before acting all curious and enticed by this enigmatic platform and i want to switch it up a little bit do something different so me and mystery brand actually teamed up if you don't know what it is basically it's a site that has a ton of these like random mystery box like right here he has like a yeezy and supreme and like technology like smartphone i don't know i guess you buy a mystery box you open it and you get like one random either dope item or bad item it's like a mystery it's a surprise right oh and i believe like the top area is like the live winner like at this moment in time people are like you know getting random stuff like some of you just wanna apple lightning to usb yo wow what is this strange sight it's a mystery box site but it's like got all these theme boxes whoa that's crazy you should definitely try opening some yourself to see what's inside them that would be mad something man yo i'm gonna try again guys yo i'm gonna just keep going at it why not oh yo yo yo yo yo yo no this is actually a good shoe yo i don't know if you guys actually like shoes but this is a good shoe the reason why i'm actually super surprised is because like it's like a 2 000 shoe in both the videos our intrepid creators receive fluctuating amounts of luck but each one they seem to win more than they lose with ricegum scoring multiple high-end trainers airpods and a ten thousand dollar handbag from his custom 250 dollar box he's got the handbag joe that's a ten thousand dollar handbag i'm about to sell that yo ten thousand dollars y'all about to sell it back as for jake paul well in between the frantic editing his five thousand dollar investment returned the following adidas yeezys airpods an iphone xs and whatever this was adidas [Music] well at least he's speaking in a language his viewers will understand now i'm going to deduct the brownie points that i've previously awarded because jake paul has a very backhanded way of advertising this website i kind of want to see what you guys as fans like i want you guys to go to mysteryband.com right now and play this game and tell me and tweet me or something if you guys win this okay because like i want someone to win something amazing guys you just need to go there and give it a spin tell him what you think he's really interested to find out what you won on the website both of these creators glorify gambling as a fun little game after all they experienced startling amounts of good fortune when opening their boxes winning items that few would take for granted just to see my balance right here i started with like half of this and i just have opening stuff got some cool stuff and i sold back so i made back some of the money i'm up right now though so like i've been having good luck on this site the problem is that if everyone had the luck of these creators then the company wouldn't be turning a profit ricegum is quite explicit that he is actually making money on this website as if it's a business model catered towards mutual income additionally it seemed that some of these mystery items seemed a bit too good to be true to be an actor award in the first place we already spoke about the disappearing gucci bag but luxury cars and even a mansion listed on the website zillow were all featured as prospective prizes for the wide-eyed patron further this came plenty of other people showing their awful experiences with the company many of whom had won items that had not been delivered or even shipped definitely not spending more than 100 canadian on a scam website or honestly i feel like this is the biggest scam of a site like it seems like the site and their mystery boxes are rigged and not to be outdone by third-party testimony there was an admission in their own terms of service stating that items one may not be delivered all while the american hustlers over here were shilling out a tacky tombola to their fans come on please something like something nice as always the commentary bloodhounds could smell the [ __ ] from a mile away and not long after uploaded videos calling out our fortunate friends on their reckless promotion of a dubious website which would not be suitable for their viewers regardless of its reliability so let's start with jake he responded i posted my video on twitter and jake responded very eloquently here he said lol love this vid our i responded to him i said you loved being called out for selling a gambling scam to underage kids okay because i just wanted to be like you know what you're talking about you know what you're saying right and he said yes love it rise gum would go on to trade blows with h3 over the nature of the scam they were [ __ ] responses big surprise the other day i posted a video where i was promoting this website basically my management just came to me it was like yo rice here's his deal load the app or whatever you get paid right i love how he describes it as just yo my management hooked me up i didn't think about anything i don't consider anything i have no interest in saying much more about it because i'm on a time limit and i don't think it's necessary rice government jake paul ripping off people isn't new that's the point however this isn't just about them sorry i didn't mean i didn't want to do that ah the reformed boy of blogging mr logan paul by 2020 it would be safe to say that the whole excursion into the unspecified foliage was a distant memory i say that at least as i had to look up when it even happened but needless to say the past is the past let's talk about some presents now i've loved pokemon my whole life literally played the games all throughout high school made a couple of vibral pokemon videos on pokemon art and i only have one tattoo on my body it's a pokemon named squirtle next to my penis so i knew there was a lane here that i did indeed have a passion for like a lot of people logan paul has an interest in collecting pokemon especially the valuable types given that he has the money to spend he's made deals before and will probably make deals again he is widely credited with causing a spike in the popularity of pokemon collecting given his public outspoken promotion of the hobby though he hasn't done it alone so the first thing i did was find an expert crazy bro i feel like i'm delivering me drugs this feels like i'm trafficking a kilo but like the price is actually probably more than that's what i'm saying look at this look at this meet jake a collectible guru also known as collectablesguru on instagram he was nice enough to sell me seven of these little pieces of cardboard for fifty thousand dollars this is the collectibles guru who has appeared in logan paul videos and has sold products to logan paul that he has opened on stream including a box containing over two hundred thousand dollars worth of pokemon content logan has promoted this guy as a reliable seller and curator of pokemon cards given his apparent expertise on the matter jake jay collectible guru how much how much could i sell these three for right now five five six k total between 4 200 4 500 we got we got an expert in the house fantastic however although logan only had his praises to sing for this chat his credibility came into question after another channel fittingly named dumb money live paid just shy of 400 for a set of first edition cards yet this isn't exactly what they received that one's not a first edition pack ah that's an issue this is an unlimited pack yeah look they're open yeah no that's a major [ __ ] issue this is a reason no in fact what they had was a random collection of resealed cards had a satisfactory product given the expenditure and although the collectibles guru wasn't the collector of the items sold he had facilitated the trade and was assumed to be in a position of relative information with respect to the exchange of goods especially given how he presented the product however after this instant questions were raised over his interest in the participation within this community to put it bluntly money seemed to serve as the prime motivation for this man he clearly didn't know half of what he was talking about and yet logan here was billing him as the go-to expert for all your pokemon needs and it wasn't long at all until someone else paid the price for this charlatans rogue trading now you can't directly hold logan paul accountable for hiring a bad egg head however his promotion of this person as an authority on pokemon cards to a mostly unsuspecting and impressionable audience does raise questions about logan's own interest especially when he hasn't clarified since this guy is actually clearly not the most trustworthy though i have to say in this case it's hard to prove much as to logan's knowledge and although it's nowhere near the extent of well this give me more baby what's in the box it's a little tutorial about the failure to cherish the trust your audience bestows unto you and maybe just a little foreshadowing of what is to come back to you in the basement john thanks babe be sure and sub to the right opinion if you haven't already though at this point i'm sure you're more than aware of his homoerotic escapades in case you needed any more convincing that the illustrious paul brothers didn't carry a ton for their self-admitted child audience what was your audience who do you make your videos for my audience is uh is definitely younger it's like eight years old to like 16 years old and so that's where i try to cater the content towards now you know how obvious the two are when it comes to taking candy from their baby fans with the most recent and pathetic example being another crapto currency oh my god during summer of 2021 logan paul and his circle of nameless henchmen suddenly began rallying behind a brand new cryptocurrency by the name of dink doink the whole barrage of videos came as a shock considering nobody had ever heard the name dink doink uttered until people like logan started plugging the hell out of it on twitter telegram and his own podcast in front of an audience of three million people stinkdoing is cleared to be the hottest [ __ ] coin ever i just want to say keep up the good work and if you guys do everything that you're doing right now even more exponentially we could go to the top of this whole [ __ ] market dude [ __ ] yeah well that's awesome to hear mike mcjack me off sounds like an awesome crypto project to get behind i mean if you guys really believe in it and you promise it's going to the moon dink doink is going to the [ __ ] moon you don't believe me you don't have to you can just be naive and dumb it's all good but y'all the community this telegram community we're not naive i want that dumb we're a [ __ ] family and we're gonna go to the [ __ ] note i only have one question what what is dink doink what is it well let's start with the fact that it is literally worthless in every sense of the word there is no practical utilization of this coin whatsoever at the time of me recording this and when we look back at their website which has been updated numerous times since i began writing this video we can see there is still isn't much other than a vague project roadmap chock full of random buzzwords and crypto jargon it looks like there aren't any real-life goals for implementing this coin into society besides a few short videos nfts a merch drop more scheduled deals with creators and an entire dink doink movie slated for 2022 which if that ever happens we may just have to review together the biggest consistency you may have noticed by now is this little [ __ ] the dink joint mascot which they have you believe is the real creator of the coin that's how they worded everything they didn't want you knowing who was behind a project like this as stated by idubbbz logan paul thinks you're a [ __ ] [ __ ] and the guy behind this whole thing he also thinks you're a [ __ ] [ __ ] the whole theme of this crypto is plausible deniability give us their names and their faces tell us if it's legitimate you should give us their names and their faces if they really had something to offer and felt passionate about the token they should have no problem being as transparent as possible about who created it and who runs the token but instead it's all propped up by brainless dirt sacks and an animation style that bears an eerie resemblance to south park you know a show that has absolutely nothing to do with the project at hand tell me about the flamethrowers and the underground tunnels well the family i wouldn't wouldn't put a lot of time into the flamethrower and this was an off-the-cuff thing and um so sort of like it's sort of a sort of a hobby company called the boring company but if you're trying to market such a pointless stupid coin it makes sense to tie it back to something the buyer the audience recognizes and in this case it's via terrible animations ripping off a show and in the most cringe on funny way possible i should add dink doink be free [Music] be the meme coin you were born to be i personally hope to god these guys catch wind evidence who the [ __ ] out of tree boy over here but see if they call it funny and acknowledge how stupid it is there's really no way any of this dink joint stuff can be bad right well that might be true if they weren't also making it out to be this grandiose investment worthy of your hard-earned cash by posturing dink joint as the next doge essentially i believe in this [ __ ] i think it's gonna go crazy some of my friends and uh celebrities as well gonna get involved in episodes doing voiceovers from cartoon stuff it's [ __ ] think doing bro and i'm ready to start sucking some dink i'll see y'all soon so far it seems everyone who has promoted this project all of logan's friends i should add have done so in a way that yes underlines the stupidity of such a venture but still tries to give it legitimacy in the same breath a pretty irresponsible plug especially when you fail to even entertain the criticisms leveled against you for example youtuber coffeezilla who will be coming back up in a second has since pointed towards an interview with the alleged dink doink ceo where he seemingly let the mask slip in his attempt to explain the birth of the coin we might as well you know be be honest about how this came about i was chilling with logan and and we were like what's the stupidest name we could think of for like a coin right what's the weirdest name we could think of for like a little mascot that's like a dumb spring we're like dink joint oh my god his name's dink doink and it just came alive like logan designed the character on his phone on snapchat and we thought we didn't realize what it was at first we were like it's a coin called ding tonight and we're like nope that's stupid you know like there shouldn't be a meme coin called dink doink and a week later we just kept bringing it up we're like dink doing this came as quite the shock to general audiences who had previously been sold the notion that logan and his friends merely came across the token on a whim and decided to go all in because they believed in it that much wouldn't be as concerning as logan intentionally misleading his audience into thinking he had nothing to do with the creation of the coin it turns out the self-admitted creator and ceo of dink doink who goes by the alias dd69 ceo on telegram is actually a man by the name of jake broido an individual with close ties to logan paul and according to a podcast he did in logan's living room on 4 20 exactly 69 days before the promotion you not only hear this guy blowing smoke of logan's ass for an hour but you get to see his perspective on starting his own crypto project at some point i want to i want to make a coin called bible coin yeah and christ coin coins by the way are only legal if they have utility the difference between like the sec will shut you down if your coin looks and feels like a stock that's illegal that means it's a security crypto coins are supposed to have utility they're supposed to use them that's what makes it legal um so if i can like get god to sign off on some like you know present your bible coins and get into heaven what if i can't prove the utility but i can say like in theory with a hundred thousand of these coins you can get into heaven so i'd say that's a little telling i'm not saying logan or anyone in particular has sold but holding onto a scam coin doesn't make it any less of a scam just like framing it as a joke doesn't make it any less of a scam either at the end of the day all i can advise is to take what influencers say with a grain of salt if you like gambling and you want to risk losing your entire life savings on a coin called ass i guess i can't stop you but the problem is the way these things are marketed leads naive investors into making brash decisions with their money thinking they could potentially get in early enough to turn a profit all because someone they look up to said so logan has been extremely cryptic regarding his affiliation with the token and that alone should worry you these people are putting their reputations on the line for the aim of ripping money out of your hands but trust me we haven't even touched the most egregious of them all my name's frasier my name is jarvis i'm tico i'm ricegum i'm nikon and i support save the kids tokens save the kids tokens save the kids token save the kids token save the kids token on thursday july 1st 2021 the popular esports group phase clan known for delivering epic trick shots and gamer fuel announced via twitter the immediate punishment of four phase members sending shockwaves throughout the internet faze jarvis nikken and tico were subsequently suspended with phase k being permanently removed from the group now faze being the center of drama is nothing new only this decision came right off the heels of a video published by a youtuber named coffeezilla or a coffee break a man dedicated to sniffing out digital scams particularly within the crypto community in late june of 2021 coffee caught wind of a little coin by the name of save the kids a charity token said to be donating a portion of its profits to saving kids only instead of saving them it was mostly scamming them the coin was initially marketed by select members of face clan rice gum and summer rae for whatever reason as a welfare token that vowed to redistribute one percent of each transaction to a child-oriented foundation it was later discovered that a senior talent major within phase jordan galen had independently recruited the aforementioned influencers to plug the project on their social media now it's important to note that this was separate from phase the higher ups at the organization claimed they were not briefed on the creators jordan had been reaching out to on his own terms and we aren't talking about small followings here either each phase member has an audience of millions across several platforms with summer rae and ricegum having more followers than any of them these were giant influencers peddling what eventually turned out to be one of the biggest scams ever reported by coffeezilla because well the coin's value plummeted a staggering 90 immediately following its launch ambassadors and early investors wasted no time in dumping their entire holdings leaving anyone who bought in after the initial exclusive pre-sale with a hole in their pocket and a ton of worthless crypto which is a massive massive problem so let me tell you it was promoted by rice gum all the usual suspects there's this new crypto save the kids that's going to the moon i'm holding it for life and then they do this big promotion and then the minute that everybody starts investing in this crypto they sell all their shares the first question anyone asked following the detriment of such a coin was how how did any of this happen and who allowed for a charity coin to lose half its values shortly after being promoted by so many influential figures well it didn't take long for people much smarter than i to start digging coffeezilla teamed up with two other notable channels some ordinary gamers and barely sociable to be exact in an attempt to get to the bottom of such a catastrophe as reported by kotaku audiences confidently pumped money into this scheme believing their investment was protected by the high profile of those endorsing it only to see their money disappear almost overnight welcome to the world of crypto okay where pump and dumps happen on an hourly basis countless naive traders being misled by their favorite creators meant someone needed to pay and it wouldn't be long until the day of retribution was upon them what went wrong and who was responsible for what embarking on a confusing and presumably frustrating scavenger hunt for the culprits coffeezilla uncovered a key bit of information regarding the nature of the dumps an anti-whale restriction that had been written into the very code of save the kids in crypto a whale is a single individual or entity that holds a large portion of a coin so naturally measures are typically put in place to ensure that one party cannot dump their entire load at once crashing the coin's value and letting the price drop to nothing well in the case of save the kids it seemed the original anti-whale mechanism had been changed from a 24-hour restriction to a one-day restriction and then finally to one minute meaning whales or big holders of save the kids were allowed to dump large quantities of the token over the period of just a minute the very code had been manipulated in favor of the influencers as more whales sold the value dropped leaving the poor fans holding the bag the one aspect these scammers didn't take into account was that all transactions are verifiable on the blockchain and if you have the wallets of several of these members you can cross-reference them with the dates and times they bought into a coin sold a coin everything which is precisely what led these three men along their investigation using this wallet we simply cross check it at the time of giveaway see that they got the winnings and then check who sent it we then check if that address has saved the kids tokens and other tokens that these people have promoted in the past and it does here's the save the kids tokens and here's the safe galaxy tokens which incidentally he got from the safe galaxy deployer meaning he's not just some random person he's clearly someone with influence that's how these tokens do it they give free tokens to the influencers from the deployer wallet i think it's important to know for the sake of documentation that not all the players here were equally as responsible yes promoting the coin in the first place carries questionable moral obligations but actually dumping everything for a quick profit is what really determines guilt in my book and i have to say that faze nico and jarvis were not nearly as irresponsible with their tokens as k probably why they only received a mere suspension rather than an outright ban even ricegum's wallet seemed to prove more general stupidity than malice and hell i can't help but feel bad for teakin the guy got lumped in with everybody else but is still holding all of his save the kids tokens last i heard he refused to sell a single coin even as he saw himself losing money as the price sank and he even bought more after the coin fell this shit's really really really [ __ ] with me i'm not looking for empathy or sympathy or like feel some kind of way about me not at all i just get so mad that i feel like i was never treated as an individual i never sold a single [ __ ] token i bought in more after the coin was [ __ ] up i never worked on this coin i never planned anything i have not even spent five minutes working on it and it's the hand on my heart i swear on my family the only reason i was a part of it was because there was a charity aspect and i understand now you know obviously that's a huge mistake obviously looking back at it you're not going to believe me because it's like oh it was this from my perspective the way i looked at it was charity he didn't deserve this level of backlash and i sincerely hope he's in a better place today now that his name has been cleared although the others may have varying levels of responsibility the investigation led by coffee and some ordinary gamers keeps going back to k who traced the activity of his crypto wallet and deduced that among being involved in various pump and dump schemes in the past he had allegedly participated in giveaway fraud exposing kay as a way more conniving trader than he pretended to be when five wallets win two or more of your giveaways and multiple of them are getting paid from your main wallet it starts looking pretty suspicious take for instance that second wallet on screen here ox49a4 it won three giveaways from k it was also paid five thousand dollars from kay's main wallet and then oops what's this it also bought into the save the kids pre-sale probably a coincidence i'm sure all of these people making videos think that they know the truth and that they know who's responsible when they just don't so this is the truth all right he sounds like he's crying but i don't see any tears almost as if he only regrets getting caught i scam everybody all right i alter the code right before launch resulting in six figure profits for me there we go that's more accurate after days of what i can only imagine was a pr nightmare fraser k formerly known as phase k released probably one of the weakest shortest and most manipulative apologies i've seen since earlier this year in under two minutes k cuts right to the point pleading innocence through a wall of crocodile tears as he points the finger at another mysterious entity pulling all the strings behind the scenes significant evidence which confirms that a dishonest person abused his trust with me to scam everybody this person gained my trust and the trust of my friends while still encouraging us to be the public faces of his scheme see k also lost money on save the kids all as a result of putting his trust into the wrong person as many in the comments were quick to take his word and give their favorite creator the benefit of the doubt unfortunately for k though this little venture had scam written all over it and you can't spell scam without sam [ __ ] [Music] [Music] born on march 26 1989 british reality tv star sam pepper has been an absolute beacon of controversy since he arrived on the internet in the early 2010 bursting onto the youtube scene with crudely thrown together prank videos he soon began to gain notoriety with each new upload in retrospect sam's prank videos were about as problematic as you can imagine actually problematic might not even be a strong enough word for someone who casually depicted sexual assault on camera for a good chunk of their career my man literally got famous for videos like making out with random girls prank delivering a human being prank grabbing girl's asses prank truly reprehensible behavior that he continued up to his killing my best friend prank with the nature of the video being so graphic i'm afraid i can't even show it in the video with masked pepper kidnapped sam golbat goldbach whatever and colby brock the latter of whom was in on the prank alongside pepper who are parked at an unknown location shoving goldbach into the trunk of the car with a bag over his head brock helps pepper tie up goldback and take him to a rooftop where he is forced to watch pepper shoot brock leaving goldbach in tears let me reiterate he traumatized his own friend for the sake of getting youtube clicks he knew how bad stunts like these would make him look in fact he leaned into the whole bad boy schtick as time went on even as multiple sexual assault allegations were leveled against the prankster eventually it was just too much to bear so he neglected his channel in exchange for a blossoming career on tick tock where he resides today making prank content for a whole new audience who knows nothing about his past antics and more notably sexual harassment allegations i cannot stress enough how bad of a person sam pepper has always been he is not someone to trust with anything which is why it's a shock to me that faze clan would be so willing as to bring him on board for years now fans have speculated sam pepper's involvement in phase with some viewers alleging he's a camera guy for k who occasionally helps out with video ideas this wouldn't be a shock considering sam has a tendency of hanging around big influencers but the water only gets muddier when you consider his recent involvement in cryptocurrencies according to coffeezilla sam pepper has gained so much of a reputation among crypto circles that he's been dubbed scam pepper for the amount of schemes and rug pulls he's orchestrated throughout his career so it's a little bit of a red flag to see sam randomly selling his tesla and fleeing the country following kaye's accusations that he had in fact played an important role in save the kids we're gonna have to take a step back for a second and speak about somebody that was key in all of this and that is sam pepper and i support save the kids save the kids sam was somebody that i trusted to help with this token i met sam around four years ago when i moved into banks's house he was deep in the creative scene of la and i found myself hanging out with him more and more sam was hired by faze for a short time as their head of content this led me to being around him more and more but uh that didn't last for long as my youtube channel back then was blowing up um he quickly saw an opportunity for himself i guess and left them and convinced me to give him a percentage of my youtube revenue in returns for being the brains of my content and doing everything after a second apology video kate does little to actually take accountability and more to brush the accusations of malpractice on to his former cameraman and friend when really just coming clean about his involvement would do so much more for his reputation than continuously digging his grave even deeper because coffeezilla didn't let up releasing a whole separate video and shining a light on a few glaring holes in k's testimony we know that sam and kay both have had some kind of shady involvement in the coin it's evident that sam pressured the developers to change the whaling code at last minute making it possible for massive investors to dump their holdings on unsuspecting small traders though it's also been proven that k was the one to sell first a whole 30 minutes before sam to be exact basically confirming that no one in this equation is in any way trustworthy and that those behind the coin had the intention to hit the deck as early as possible abandoning all of their coins in exchange for a couple thousand bucks which really kind of pales in comparison to putting your entire reputation in jeopardy but maybe that's just me me i'm a broke idiot what do i know yeah i mean i you gotta imagine for people who have entire personalities built around mansions and supercars right you're really risking your peak your your your great career on 30 000 which is a lot of money but it's certainly not enough to warrant putting that much risk on you you know more than anything i think schemes like save the kids underline more glaring issues within the current crypto market the minimal regulations surrounding such a concept is what really leads to so many people getting hurt as we know many of these casual investors were just fans of faith and genuinely wanted to make a difference by investing in a charity token as noted by coffeezilla we tend to forget actual faces and lives at stake behind the scenes of these frug bulls why do you want to buy because i want to help participate for charity help people with charity and earn some money as well because being on a charity coin and getting rich at the same time is just so satisfying they don't all go in for the same reasons they're not just numbers on a chart these were real people that this affected effect setting aside masterminds like sam pepper and frasier k there are regular people being screwed over the most simply for not knowing enough about what they're getting into and you really can't blame them for that cryptocurrency is complicated i barely understand anything past the basics myself and i can totally understand why viewers would be quick to buy into a token their favorite creator promised them was going to the moon these guys always have to state they believe in the project but as idubbbz said it's because it would be illegal for you to not believe in it make no mistake the most of the creators promoting these terrible investments know exactly what they're doing they simply don't care enough about the fallout so long as they're able to make a profit in the meantime and until suitable regulation comes and the sec cracks down on these ghouls i'm afraid altcoins will just continue being the griff that keeps on grifting so what are you waiting for join the nickel family and revolutionize in the world of cryptocurrency [Music]

Cool, now let's do one over the trend of bogus life "coaches".

[u/s_y_s_t_e_m_i_c_]

Ice Poseidon or whatever his name is just scammed a bunch of people with a crypto scheme didn't he?

[u/Snowbattt]

Influencers are the scourge of today's internet, along with social media platforms they post on.

[u/criticalt3]

Glad to see Jaubrey posted here. He does great work.

[u/Brilliant_Jewel1924]

Influencer=Scam

[u/HeadQueerLeader]

Is “doge” actually pronounced “doje”? I always thought it was just “dog” but spelt stupid because it was a meme

[u/Oriopax]

I really don't get the attractiveness of influencers. Every time I hear some say they're an influencer, all I want to do is stab them like that German soldier stabbing private Mellish in Saving private Ryan

[u/Youre_your_wrong]

It's just like the lottery.. a tax for the stupid..

[u/saintjimmy43]

Its nice knowing your hatred for some people is justified. No, im not just a "hater," you fucking suck as a person.
