Another NFT scam? I’m shocked! 😮

Kinda tempted to start an NFT under the alias "Will Scamyou" and see if it works out.

Speedrunning scam ? Amazing. But more impressive is how fast so many ppl can demonstrate their stupidity over things called NFT...

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scam you!" - "So, can I have my money back?" "Uuuuhm... no."

Only NFT bros would make literally knowing who the people behind a project are into some kind of techie sounding term.

I went from "we're living in brave new world" to "nah, this is fucking wonderland already" in the span of a single year with these kids of things

Just to confirm, this would be a breach of microsofts eula, they did this whole thing a few years back targetting servers that were built to make money, rather than offering things to buy for server costs/maintenance.

I swear you're gonna turn me into a scammer one of these days. When projects like this keep popping up it's so damn tempting to do it yourself, my moral compass won't allow it yet but it's close man.

“ im shocked..SHOCKED…well not that shocked”

I just don't have the energy for this anymore. It's like almost nobody does his research before jumping onto scams like this. "If someone tells you he has heaven to sell, he doesn't have heaven to sell." Money does grow on trees... NFTrees!

I'm horrified that the response to this is "Surely this is illegal - I wonder what Microsoft are going to do in response". We're looking to megacorporations to protect us from scams already. Truly interesting times.

We are truly in the darkest of timelines. Sometimes I wish I had the amorality of these jackasses to scam people out of money I got things I want to buy and college loans to pay off. Then I remember that at least I know when I die people won't be celebrating my death and that comforts me.

The only positive that could happen in this situation is that Microsoft might take them to court for profiting off of their IP. Which could inturn dissuade others from copying with other IP's. However if they do nothing I can only see these types "projects" becoming more and more common.

Why are people so willing to give their money away? How can you trust so freely with the one thing you need to survive in this world?

Seeing how easy it is to scam people, I'm tempted to get in on the free money from nfts. Though, a little thing called morality gets in the way

Tired of all the crypto and NFT stuff. Honestly, I just want to get a reasonably priced new GPU

Damn, it's almost like being able to make transactions with complete anonymity and no ability to be held financially accountable for any wrong doing is a horrible idea. Decentralization sounds great until some sort of crime happens and you need someone like a bank to fight for you.

Kira - I was raised in a middle class cul-de-sac rather than a council estate. I can confirm 'Money doesn't grow on trees' was still used lol.

“Takes years to build trust and few seconds to break it” Money doesn’t grow on trees, The system controls the trees, branches, leaves etc

I don't feel even remotely bad for people scammed, I can't imagine how braindead they have to be to invest into such obvious bs

NFTs and blockchains... What was at first a cool way of proving actual digital ownership, has now become a dead horse of this, that, and the 3rd scammer. Just sad

WTF? My parents were all wrong all along!! Money grows on videogames!! 🤣😂

Play-to-earn, or P2E, doesn't seem like a viable business model for games. My reasoning is that a P2E crypto currency's value is backed by the amount of money in the liquidity pool, but that crypto currency is produced by playing a game often with no cap. The only way for the crypto's value to increase or stay steady is if people are buying the currency produced by the game. Initially this doesn't seem like a huge issue considering mobile games and games as a service do a great job of encouraging players to buy things. The problem is that when you use the phrase "P2E", the audience that is attracted to it are people that are looking to make money, not buy things. So while a P2E game may look profitable early on as players pile in and drive up the price of NFTs used to produce the game's currency, it is unlikely that this same audience will use outside money to buy said currency to raise its value. This is also because many crypto games release way too early without any real reason for players to spend money other than to continue to increase the amount of currency they produce. Thus you have runaway inflation which will eventually snuff out a crypto game's only bright point, the money behind it.

They crossed a line here... to abuse the most popular and innocent game that there is. I would never have thought to say this... but: Microsoft, crush these guys!!

ANOTHER nft scam??? This the "GREAT RESET" everyone has been talking about???.... 🤣 LMAO 😂😂... love your videos mate ❤️❤️

This is not any rug pull, this is a magic carpet ride.

Holy shit, this one was a laugh riot. "You stole a million dollars!" had me in stiches

NFTs are the future... of human failure. Welcome to the clown show, hope you bought your jpg color before it was illegal.

This whole "scene" is just begging for some kind of government clampdown.

I really don't know if I have to feel sorry for these people. Is like they are just looking for the fastest way to throw their money away.

NFTs are just scammer heaven, heck even the biggest trading platform opensea was scamming at one point lmao

I stand by my statement that they literally found a way to make Monopoly money have cash value.

Fools and they’re money always depart. This wont last much longer without legal action being taken against all these scumbags though.

Who can make a "Twelve days of rugpulls" song for this? :D

I want to know who bought these coins, someone interview some of them

iv heard somewhere that governments r debating weather or not to call NFTs a scam

I suspect that Microsoft has a fairly loose relationship with most Minecraft content creators because most creators are not large-scale operations (ie, no threat) and they also continue to drive player interest in Microsoft's product. So normally this kind of character skins market is a bonus for them. But $1 million? Yeah, they likely care. This is where cease and desists (and other things) start flying. The problem is the speed. 12 days was probably not enough time for Microsoft to notice and act on it. Much less the minutes to hours it was actually active... Actually, maybe Microsoft is what happened. This sold out in 8 minutes. Microsoft sent their legal team at these guys. The NFT bros naturally threw up their hands and dipped because they didn't want to turn their new million over to Microsoft.

How can Kira earn half of mill? A NFT discord server ofc. Where you can chat and use voice!! :O

As sad as this is, I guess we can't deny one little fact: how many gullible people fall for these things so damn easily.

I want so desperately for these nft scammers to go to court simply to watch it all go down, cause this is the second time that I've heard the excuse of "internet toxicity" used to justify a rug pull. I'd love to see the look on a judges face when that piece of evidence is read out cause it's so ridiculous. Imagine if when Bernie Madoff or Jordan Belfort went to court when asked why they scammed their clients they said "well some of my clients hurt my feelings".

There's a rug pull almost every hour. These people do not deserve to be responsible over money and I hope they never have children if they keep falling for these scams.

8:02 They had me at Alien Enemis

A fool and their money are easily parted

These people deserve to get ripped off. The levels of stupidity involved in all of these scams are hilarious.

A little while ago Mine Craft released an article that said they are against NFTs

Damn I gotta get into this scene.

I'm not even mad at these guys. NIce finish bro ''Welcome to the Metaverse'' Kek.

You know the saying: Fool and his money are easily parted.

Oh my god. Why do these things keep happening? Do people have too much money so they must throw away some of it on obvious scammers?

With the luxury of the internet and all of its resources people are still amazingly naive.

dudes handle literally is "cash extraction" and idiots threw money at him? fucking amazing.. people like that deserve to lose that money..

You could start your own NFT project. Just make one token for each of these scams. There is plenty of supply.

A scam within a scam. That´s like losing money that you needed for the Prince of Nigeria´s flight to the US on a shell game.

this kind of shit never end when people just shove their money and never try to do anything

"Rug". The NFT community even has its own slang for "scam".

There is FOMO in this. Fear of missing out on making easy money by scamming idiots. I feel like I'm dumb for not starting my own scam.

So officially speed runners just got a new category : "Fastest time from 0 to 1 mil$ " and these guys are on top of it ! Can't wait to see what will contesters do to take that record down! Oh the world of crypto , one big fucking joke !

Boy, be a shame if these Minecraft "NFTs" were remade or found elsewhere online.....

"A fool and his money are easily parted"

Does anybody think that they just made up that quote? "a sucker is born every minute". Now a days it's two suckers per minute.

7:00 I was raised with that mantra as well. I was also raised with the idea that those that want your money will always want as much as possible and give back as little as possible. If we got a toy and it broke before it should have my parents could get very angry and they strongly encouraged us to do the same. We gave our money so we deserve a product worth that money and we shouldn't settle for less. Also to always be suspicious of company claims and marketing and to always assume by default they are being untruthful.

So KZfaq showed a press release where they consider adding NFT and "further grow connection between creators and funs". Glhf

even if it is "allowed" or legally okay, morally in a community sense it would be time to get the pitchforks

I bet I could make an NFT project with a name that has an acronym of S.C.A.M, and people would still buy in.

I'm so amazed that people are letting themselves by scammed by obvious shit like this

I really hope people would stop investing cash into projects where the people arent even giving out their real contact information. Its amazing how in real life no one would probably buy a house from a person who wants to hide his or her name but on internet this kind of behaviour doesnt seem suspect at all. Also how are most of these projects actually going to make money for the players. Just making a game isnt a guarantee that the game will be successful enough that the potential NFT´s will be sellable for a decent price for newer players. Especially if the game isnt able to lure in new players.

A Jar of kira's Flatulence is a pretty tempting prospect. Would definately hold it's value better than an NFT!

Speechles, shocked.. this is called natural selection.

I wonder how many of the same person fell for the same scam by many different people 🤣

Meanwhile legit game devs like me can't sell 40 copies even with free demo and weekly updates... Every time I see people falling for empty promises and kickscams I just get depressed.

I might have to step in

Have you looked into Phantom Galaxies? Looks like another indie game dev that pivoted into the blockchain market. Always worrying when the first thing you see is the paper and "connect your wallet" before you see actual screenshots.

People being dumb or money laundering? It's hard to believe that much could be raised in such a short period without a scheme.

Could you imagine if the gaming companies was doing this...they was ready

Allright, who put me under a Genjutsu and makes me experience insanity on a loop? Stop it!

My current MC Skin is something that one of the mods for a server group that I used to play and then moderate on made for me, the skin I had, that I had made as an actual representation of myself annoyed him so he made it better while keeping the overall look that I had.

Even Johnny Depp has joined the nft circus now :P .

Well money 'itself' doesn't grow on trees, but the cotton in the US bills certainly do grow from a plant!

Yep, I'm going to say it. All NFT's are SCAMS!

Wait, they couldn't handle the project of making nfts in minecraft a game that's over 10 years old and has been modded to hell and back. There's so much bullshit there that it could block a sewer.

Can't wait for KiraKoin to launch and for you to get that milly bro

Well if they did something naive like funding their wallet from an exchange that has kyc I guess they could be ID’d

Well at least they still have their NFTs

I'm gonna make some NFTs of rugs and see what happens. lol

To be honest, I was feeling stupid for accidentally hitting my neighbor's mailbox. This video reminded me that at least I've never invested in anything without knowing who wanted the money, and that made me feel better. Thank you.

@KiraTV you could always sell NFTs of farts, that HAS to be the future! rofl

Damn, the mania is real indeed.

Funny thing is I got an add about investing in NFTs before this video

KZfaq just announced that they will be introducing NFT's... This world is a parody.

I'm just glad I grew up with the saying "If it costs nothing, you're the product". Makes me immune to this kind of stuff. If something does sound too good to be true, always ask yourself "how do they pay for what they're promising you?" If you can't answer that with a legitimate financing strategy, stay clear.

They've really gone and done it now

Damn the idea is tempting ngl lol

A Minecraft labelled scam like this should have a lot more attention...

Maybe they rug pulled because 10,000 is way too many players on a single Minecraft server. Even just 1000 if only 10% play at any time is too much.

Honestly waiting for Karl Jobst to start a series on Rugpull Speedrunning.

I was asked to be do a web design for a crypto project. The CEO asked me if I would take stake in the project over $$$. I politely refused and doubled by rate, with 50% upfront. I was paid and I delivered. The project ofc didn't succeed. So yeah, don't take vaporweave over hard cash money!!!

My *money laundering* detector is flashing red and blue.

1 million dollars and they made a typo at 8:04 with “alien enemis” ….

Shit, man. I'ma start doodling some characters right now and make me some NFTs to sell.

Money does not grow on trees, but they thrive on NFTs (=
