      That's why it's sad that instead, this is what he got, a Chinese machine just the same because the scammer was a lazy ass. I don't think he even knew how to make it in the first place. Worse is that scammer STILL proceeded with forwarding Oompa a Chinese-made machine, and jacked its prices in total so high, just because of greed.
      What a waste. All things again made in China. I hope Oompa eventually found what he wanted, an American-manufactured machine, sometime down the road. I haven't seen Oompa's video yet, so no idea if he can proceed with making candies using the machine they've already got at this stage, to start with, then look for something better down the road.

      A few years ago a (former) friend asked to borrow $500 due to an emergency. I had extra money at the time so I agreed to help. As I handed him the cash, he assured me he’d pay me back the upcoming Friday his payday. Anyway, that Friday came and went… and so did the next 3 months. I came to a point where I was running low on cash myself. I would nicely mention to him that I wasn’t demanding all paid back in full immediately but would appreciate even the smallest amount on a weekly basis until his debt was paid (like $20-$50/wk). He blew me off repeatedly and when I eventually snapped and asked point blank about my money, he hits me with
      “IT’S NOT MY FAULT YOU WERE BEING IRRESPONSIBLE AND SPENT ALL YOUR MONEY! NOW I’M NOT PAYING YOU SHIT!”
      There’s so much more bullshit to this story but I’ll just end it there to avoid an even bigger wall of text.

    Companies will "outsource" their machine building to a Chinese company. The machine ships without a logo and generic schematics, the American company just puts their logo and redoes the schematics in English.
    Edit: to be clear, not all of them are crap, so it's not a total scam, just plants being overcharged for machinery, but it's still very scummy regardless.

    I've been scammed out of a few grand before and it hurts. In my case it was also a professional thing, where I paid for certain services thinking I was paying for an expert, and even though the person was all credentialed, turned out they didn't know anything at all. It also would have been hard to sue and too much effort to get the money back. Can't imagine how much losing a million would hurt.

    I've been watching Caleb's videos for years and was really sad to find out about this. It's been amazing to see his idea for a candy company grow into a big thing. To see a gambling-obsessed "friend" screw him over like this makes me wonder if it's worth having faith in humanity.

    I hope things go great for him now, I have been scammed by my family. I know not every family is as messed up as mine, so hopefully his family won't scam you him also.

    If the scam is this obvious he can clearly sue for the money. They misrepresented what they provided.

    Oompavile is just one of the nicest people and people still took advantage of that to scam him. Feel bad for him.
