Teletubby 150,181 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Kim Kardashian and Floyd Mayweather Jr are being sued for allegedly misleading investors by promoting cryptocurrency tokens as part of an alleged 'pump and dump scam'. A lawsuit, filed in the Los Angeles federal court on January 7, claims Kim and and Floyd - among others, including former NBA player Paul Pierce - touted tokens sold by EthereumMax, or EMAX, in order to boost its price and make themselves a profit 'at the expense of their followers and investors.' Figures show the value of the cryptocurrency plummeted by a whopping 98 per cent in July - just weeks after the stars had advertised it to their hundreds of millions of combined followers. An advert posted by Kim in June reached one in five people in the US alone. The suit was filed by a New York resident who bought EMAX tokens and lost money. source "You b*tch!" ~ Rat Boy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bionic 50,107 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 On the one hand, it sounds like this guy made a bad investment and lost his money. Not really a lawsuit there as Kim's post clearly says this is not financial advice. On the other, I want influencers to be held responsible for endorsing dud products (that most of the time they know nothing about) and getting others to buy into something that is doomed to flop Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HEARTSTOP 3,143 Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 I wish I had the audacity to scam people. It's so enticing when you can easily see through bullsh*t and can easily identify how gullible people are. If I didn't have a moral compass I'd be rich by now.
