can you write a bit about how he is a con artist?
This. The guy was just some drug-addled tech industry has been that shilled crypto scams and dodged his taxes. I think all those bathsalts were making him paranoid.
This guy has been shown to be borderline fraudulent and motivated by money
The guy is a thief who defrauded millions. His hubris is what got him in this situation.
I’d argue that he’s not stupid, I would argue that he is genuinely unwell. His private behavior, documented in a lawsuit by his former associates, paints a picture of a man whose behavior in private is as dangerous and unhinged as his current public behavior is. He called himself the second coming of Jesus in a private email, allegedly.He is another case of a public figure that would’ve gotten positive coverage in the history books if he’d had the good fortune to die a while ago. Him and Giul
Excellent idea, he's frequently in the news being accused of all kinds of nefarious acts. Donyou want in?
He was a professional conman (before he made money with mega by actively pushing pirated content) known for making false claims, so be weary about the reliability of his encryption claims.
That guy's wikipedia page screams fraud. I would just be careful, iiwy.
Well. Enjoy your jail time I guess.Edit: looking into this guy and the volume of illegal stories he tells, I'm convinced that his real gig is being an "influencer".
This is a person who scammed millions of people and boasted about it as it was happening.Their “ideas” on social justice and everything else they have to say should be questionable at best, and intentionally misleading at worst.I would encourage you to find role models who are more than just good at distracting people from their criminal activities.
