UPDATE: Faze Kay has been removed from Faze Clan. Faze Jarvis, Teeqo and Nikan have been suspended from Faze Clan as well. If you lost money to “SaveTheKids” Token, you can report it to www.IC3.gov, which goes to the FBI and FTC. Also you should report this to the SEC. You have been defrauded intentionally, and you deserve justice.
The ic3 is useless. I got scammed on ebay when they had the ebay car warranty guarantee.. and ebay let a ton of people get scammed. I made a massive email and linked up to 2nd person who was sent a junk car but shown nice items. ic3 did nothing, I made and proved a whole court case with address of work of the scammers and all. They did not even send an automated email. Imagine the ic3 today is backed up heavy with blockchain scammers. Its pointless, truly.
Youngsters are the primary victim of pyramid and ponzi schemes. They're the most susceptible to 1-day-millionaire schemes because of their naivety and the dream to make their parents proud.

yeah i mean some people are just naive. but i guess their though-process probably something like this "they're big influencers, theyre in the public eyes allday everyday (cant get away unseen with things easily) and they're already quite rich and have a lot opportunities to make easy legal money, so why would they fuck all that up just to become some pathetic scammers?", which is not stupid imo, just a lil naive, like i've said.

@Powersd451 All funds have been redistributed using an extensive distribution network, which distributed the funds to all previously allocated distributees. :) There, perfect, all questions answered. Have a dope ass day!
The most fucked up thing about this is the fact that if anyone genuinely does want to do something like this to help children in the future, as an act of pure hearted goodwill- it will be that much more impossible and likely fail due to this very act. So this whole thing effectively hurt more kids than anyone can possibly begin to calculate. It’s really sad, honestly. People need to do better in who they idolize and waste their free time watching.
I mean I’ve never seen any of these influencers before, but just doing a quick skim shows how disturbingly fake and shallow they are. Anyone thinking they are good hearted needs this lesson to be able to see real from fake.
@@ryanhughes1101 Victim blaming needs to die. Seriously. They didn't need this. They didn't deserve it. Leave the blame with the perps, where it belongs.
If you want to do charity work, just dont base your efforts around a fucking cryptocurrency. That simple. There are plenty of shitty charities out there that dont actively defraud supporters. Crypto as a market is basically a fiant ponzi scheme and anyone that buys in long term is an idiot. Also anything involving ricegum is probably a scam from the start. Dude is notoriously shit.
Honestly I thought faze clan members were living there best life’s because of there house and they get so much money everyday and lives in a good house perfect life -Faze let’s get more money than we already have
It's probably also a pre-emptive SEO strategy so when people google it, the charity comes up instead of the scam. Loads of influencers and politicians use a similar tactic using certain terms to muddy search results.
This went even more depth than expected. Damn good work. White collar crime is something always associated with men in suits but sometimes it could be the dude's your kids are watching. That's what is truly scary. These people are the biggest wolf in sheep's clothing in my opinion. I miss the days when gaming channels were just recording on a shitty Xbox with a camera aimed at the TV and yelling slurs at each other. Now they are out here committing crimes.
it changed from mostly introverted gamers wanting to share their passion not expecting any views... to sociopathic lying dirt bags exploiting their viewers in literally every way imaginable.
It went from hormornal teenage boys telling slurs on livestream and/or dishing out not-so-clever diss-tracks to committing federal crimes lol. It's a slippery slope, folks.
Faze clan really just loves getting involved in scams & facing no real consequences... because Faze's audience is made up of mostly young kids that don't understand Faze's greedy intentions.
I can imagine their logic: "Bitcoin is unregulated" "No one's going to catch us" "Nobody looks into this stuff" "We're in the clear" . . . Enter: Coffee
It's good to know that NONE of the people involved in this scam have been brought to Justice. Faze Clan and Faze Kay, et al., are still going strong, scamming and shamming.
@@bbalpha4921 even if its Mr beast he just a random stranger, you don't know what he does not saying to not watch him but you should trust people that you don't even now
As someone who struggles paycheck to paycheck, taking care of my mother and grandmother. As well as having health problems of my own and a house that is literally falling apart that we can't afford to fix! This makes me so sad! Why are there people out there that do this? I don't understand!
There's two types of capitalism, the way I see it. *The honest type, that your parents practice.* And *the bottom of the barrel capitalism.* *Assassination, crime, online scamming, being a family-friendly RUclipsr or influencer, being a greedy, entitled little bitch in general, like every Instagram user.*
As I was watching I thought to myself this, What if the all of kay's scamms were orchestrated by him and in this particular one all the influencers were brought in by him to scam, everyone knows and everyone is trying to cover their ass, including lucas, (lucas might have realized it was a scam but did nothing because of the money and because he wanted to work with such big names as kay etc)
They messed up this time choosing kids as their selling point. You CANT do anything shady with that. They’ve gotten away before with other bull coins but you don’t cross that line.
2:30 "I'm sure these influencers love kids as much as the next guy" Actually from what I hear a lot of these influencers actually love kids a little too much
Yeah it's the same over and over again on the internet. The best example here is Elon Musk. I have to admit the guy achieved a lot but he is also talking a lot of bs. But no matter how often he tells his lies about fully autonomous cars being just around the corner since 2016. People jump you on every negative thing you say about their god.
Love how Lucas is like "yeah. Its a scam. But i was under contract, so i couldnt do anything." Like... literally you cannot be legally forced to commit a crime due to your contract. Like... if he wants to be like "i was being pressured into it," thats one thing. But it seemed like he was saying he legally had to do it, or be in breach of contract. XP
Exactly. Any contract is null and void once the terms or the contract contents are illegal. It's like him saying, yo I am just a truck driver, when I found out I had to transport cocaine I couldn't do anything because I had a contract. He is definitely BSing
I mean, technically you’re right. The contract is null at that point. But look at it from a contractors perspective. On one hand, you know it’s a scam, but on the other, it’s a crypto scam. Crypto scams aren’t nothing new, in fact they’re common. Yet they’re unprotected most of the time. Why would this scam be any different. And to many, breaching a contract-even if the terms are illegal-is such an uphill battle that it might be preferable to just do the contract and throw the higher ups under the bus. It’s easy to say “well he shouldn’t have done it if it was illegal” but in reality, it’s more like “he should’ve risked going to court against a wealthier group, risking financial bankruptcy in lawyers fees”. Not saying it’s right, but I’m saying that it’s akin to shooting your self in the leg Vs poisoning yourself.
Yes, but uhhhhh, changing a bit of code as per your employer's request is literally... Just part of the job? There is no regulation against changing such hardcoded limits? Can't even claim false advertising because the message changed as well, and technically the system was still there
In all seriousness, I'm awaiting the day you're invited to testify at a congressional committee hearing investigating this kind of deceit. What these influencers are doing may be "small-time" to regulators, but it is affecting so many innocent, vulnerable people and it deserves to be exposed and prosecuted.
They basically give them money and attention to drive around in super cars and flexing theirs mansions on Internet. People are way more stupid than we think.
Put your proper ad placements where you need to my man. You deserve a good pay day from this great detective work, no one made you do this but you put in the hard work. Can't believe how low people can be.
No duh lol they wouldn't be some youtube journalist isint gonna do shit the government don't care and the crypto people need to learn to quit being so stupid and actually read what there putting virtual money into
Such an incredible video, the research, the editing, the narration, and even the Godly collab between the Goats Barely Sociable and SOG... speechless man. Great work to all. Love to see the creative, in depth detective work, especially at 12:30 Keep it up guys
Yeah, outstanding work. Criminals love crypto but once the anonymity is broken, all their actions are there to see on the blockchain, with no recourse or delete mechanism. The feature that was their friend is now gonna incriminate them.
@@murdercloak7578 my point here if the individual get caught , only he punished not the entire organisation like this case because even Faze Bank didn't know about this
Holy crap, the investigating work you do is awesome. Without people like you, so many people would be getting away with scamming others. You're one of the few RUclipsrs I could call a legit hero lol
I wonder if adin ross was involved. Or even HOWIE the owner of ROOBET (online gambling site) the site has been blowing up because he pays adin and rice gum to gamble and promote it. I feel like the”H” guy they were mentioning as the head of the operation is him.
He even hit them with the tried and true “I’ll double your money” scam. As a dude from the hood where almost everybody “successful” does this while I work hard af it’s great to see someone get theirs who does it. Good job
SEC is too busy harassing Ripple because there's much more at stake there. They don't give a shit about this because it ONLY hurts random retail investors, not the big dogs.

@@brushthe4913 all rice gum haters are white🤢🤢
The most fucked up thing about this is the fact that if anyone genuinely does want to do something like this to help children in the future, as an act of pure hearted goodwill- it will be that much more impossible and likely fail due to this very act.
So this whole thing effectively hurt more kids than anyone can possibly begin to calculate.
It’s really sad, honestly. People need to do better in who they idolize and waste their free time watching.
I mean I’ve never seen any of these influencers before, but just doing a quick skim shows how disturbingly fake and shallow they are. Anyone thinking they are good hearted needs this lesson to be able to see real from fake.
@@ryanhughes1101 Victim blaming needs to die. Seriously.
They didn't need this. They didn't deserve it. Leave the blame with the perps, where it belongs.
If you want to do charity work, just dont base your efforts around a fucking cryptocurrency. That simple. There are plenty of shitty charities out there that dont actively defraud supporters. Crypto as a market is basically a fiant ponzi scheme and anyone that buys in long term is an idiot. Also anything involving ricegum is probably a scam from the start. Dude is notoriously shit.
You can just donate to charity or something, nfts dont do anything that doesnt already exist
@thexboxcat341 exactly. These morons claim they want to donate to charity, so why not just....donate to charity. Mind-blowing revelation, I know!
“I’m Ricegum.”
Well there’s your first red flag right there.
Never ever take financial advice from Asian Jake Paul
So they risk their whole career just to make what they would probably make within a month anyways :')
Yep, Faze members have shown they put greed over logic in lots of cases.
Greed is a sin
That's the result. They probably thought they can get more.
The issue is in their minds its 'free 30k' and 'its crypto we will never get caught' - they dont understand
Honestly I thought faze clan members were living there best life’s because of there house and they get so much money everyday and lives in a good house perfect life -Faze let’s get more money than we already have
There is a legit charity called "save the children". This "save the kids" 'charity' use a similar logo and colour scheme. Shady
Save the children is actually legit but this shitty scam is making all charities look fake
Yummy is a better one
Wtf I just searched up the logo and you’re right. Really disgusting
Probably so the scam one can shift the blame to the original one
It's probably also a pre-emptive SEO strategy so when people google it, the charity comes up instead of the scam. Loads of influencers and politicians use a similar tactic using certain terms to muddy search results.
“Redistributing wealth to both HODLERS and charities”
You can’t make this shit up
This is based off of the "reflect" token contact. All these shit coin scams are based off this redistributing token. Real lame
Sentiment as such usually works on people who have 0 understanding of basic economic principles
Lol I was legit thinking maybe it was a Cryptocurrency term I didn’t get or something lol
@@nickdaniel9699 "hodl"? Yeah it is a term people use but it's just literally a misspelling of hold. It's an extremely boring injoke

"I remember" this guy sounds so guilty pulling out random changes to his story and repeatedly remembering things that just so happen to clear his name
Listening to these (words I cant say) speak is simultaneously halarious and infuriating.
This went even more depth than expected. Damn good work. White collar crime is something always associated with men in suits but sometimes it could be the dude's your kids are watching. That's what is truly scary. These people are the biggest wolf in sheep's clothing in my opinion. I miss the days when gaming channels were just recording on a shitty Xbox with a camera aimed at the TV and yelling slurs at each other. Now they are out here committing crimes.
Its a 30 second yt short go to the end where banks starts talking
it changed from mostly introverted gamers wanting to share their passion not expecting any views... to sociopathic lying dirt bags exploiting their viewers in literally every way imaginable.
It went from hormornal teenage boys telling slurs on livestream and/or dishing out not-so-clever diss-tracks to committing federal crimes lol. It's a slippery slope, folks.
There are still plenty of good gaming channels and streamers. They aren’t influencers though
Faze advertised an online casino they owned their underaged audience, they did this to buy their csgo team
Faze clan really just loves getting involved in scams & facing no real consequences... because Faze's audience is made up of mostly young kids that don't understand Faze's greedy intentions.

Love how Lucas is like "yeah. Its a scam. But i was under contract, so i couldnt do anything."
Like... literally you cannot be legally forced to commit a crime due to your contract. Like... if he wants to be like "i was being pressured into it," thats one thing. But it seemed like he was saying he legally had to do it, or be in breach of contract. XP
Exactly. Any contract is null and void once the terms or the contract contents are illegal. It's like him saying, yo I am just a truck driver, when I found out I had to transport cocaine I couldn't do anything because I had a contract. He is definitely BSing
But its crypto, so it's not illegal. Immoral? Definitely, but not illegal.
@@elbuhdai605 Sorry, what does it being crypto have to do with anything? Doesn't matter what the object was, what he did was illegal.
I mean, technically you’re right. The contract is null at that point.
But look at it from a contractors perspective. On one hand, you know it’s a scam, but on the other, it’s a crypto scam. Crypto scams aren’t nothing new, in fact they’re common. Yet they’re unprotected most of the time. Why would this scam be any different.
And to many, breaching a contract-even if the terms are illegal-is such an uphill battle that it might be preferable to just do the contract and throw the higher ups under the bus. It’s easy to say “well he shouldn’t have done it if it was illegal” but in reality, it’s more like “he should’ve risked going to court against a wealthier group, risking financial bankruptcy in lawyers fees”. Not saying it’s right, but I’m saying that it’s akin to shooting your self in the leg Vs poisoning yourself.
Yes, but uhhhhh, changing a bit of code as per your employer's request is literally... Just part of the job? There is no regulation against changing such hardcoded limits? Can't even claim false advertising because the message changed as well, and technically the system was still there
THIS is what good journalism looks like, impressed by how deep you went. Great vid!
In all seriousness, I'm awaiting the day you're invited to testify at a congressional committee hearing investigating this kind of deceit. What these influencers are doing may be "small-time" to regulators, but it is affecting so many innocent, vulnerable people and it deserves to be exposed and prosecuted.
True. He is so good.
the fact that these influencers are still active shows how stupid people are and that they know there is no accountability
They should be arrested or at least legally deplatformed
They basically give them money and attention to drive around in super cars and flexing theirs mansions on Internet. People are way more stupid than we think.
Put your proper ad placements where you need to my man. You deserve a good pay day from this great detective work, no one made you do this but you put in the hard work. Can't believe how low people can be.

He even hit them with the tried and true “I’ll double your money” scam. As a dude from the hood where almost everybody “successful” does this while I work hard af it’s great to see someone get theirs who does it. Good job
