    I don’t want to victim blame here, but both “Logan Paul” and “crypto” together is just screaming scam. That being said, I hope the victims get their money back, though from the article, I doubt it’ll be anytime soon if at all.

      On the one hand, I think when people are being scammed, there should be some recourse for them to recover their money.

      But on the other hand, if you can’t see through “cryptocurrency” + “Logan Paul” + “game”, maybe you deserve to lose that money. I just wish it could be taken away from Logan Paul and donated to people who really need it.

      i don’t think that is victim blaming. People have been saying for a while that this is a scam. There is thousand of stories where people lost everything.

      Trusting someone like that with your money is on you. You didn’t listen to the little voice in your head telling you it’s too good to be true.
