Keyboardio Kickstarter Day 1278: A startling discovery

If Keyboardio wanted to be dishonest, they could have just been one of the many (majority?) Kickstarter projects which take money and find an excuse not to return a product at the end. If you were more familiar with them, you'd know that they aren't one of those projects: they have already produced and delivered product, and my sense is that most backers are satisfied with the result.

(For the record, I have no kind of relationship to Keyboardio.)

I kick started a set of playing cards that I thought were pretty cool. When the guy received the cards, he disconnected from everything, used the money to pay for university and sold the cards on ebay. Never got the cards in the end :( Some guys found him on facebook and informed his employer about the scam, who just said it wasn't their problem and their employee 'seems honest'

Can you tell this story in more detail, with links? It sounds interesting.

(Or not, since “interesting” translates to “lynch mob” in this scenario on the open Internet.)
