This MASSIVE Influencer Scam Just Got Worse…

UPDATE: Faze Kay has been kicked out of Faze Clan! Faze Jarvis, Faze Teeqo and Faze Nikan have been suspended! Joel Morris released a statement where he admits to selling and steps down from $XCAD.
UPDATE 2: When speaking about Faze Kay’s wallet, I misspoke and said he had 6.2 billlion tokens. He actually had 6.2 MILLION tokens. Our estimations later in the video correctly accounted for this, but I misspoke in discussing KaY’s holdings. Thanks to Steven Asarch for catching this mistake!
Save the Kids was a crypto that was promoted by the top influencers in the world.
Faze Kay, Faze Jarvis, Faze Teeqo, Faze Nikan and Ricegum all promoted the coin, along with many other popular influencers being involved. So far, we’ve had no evidence of why the coin failed until today….

This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napoleon Hill pitch.

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.

It took me 4ever to make the connection the term "sheep" and the term "stupid" are one in the same. Most media from billboards to movies and TV shows are aimed towards dumb people or those that are easily influenced. Just look at commercials as an example of how these companies talk to us like we are 5 qnd try to ram their products down our throats. It's all brainwashing tactics. Influencers spend most there time acting like fake people 4 the camera they r not to be trusted. I have a background in advertising so I know about all the tricks. Sorry 4 the long message I just hate scammers

[@mrloqqe1610]

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.

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.
