‘He said he feels Mayweather and the other promoters “took their payouts and moved on while everybody who scraped by to invest in their futures got robbed.”’

Astounding. This moron borrowed $12k without the capacity to repay it and then spent it on a get rich quick scheme where he would buy a picture of a monkey and sell it to someone even stupider based on a youtube recommendation. It is really hard for me to feel any empathy at all here.

It absolutely is pretty bad, but a world where your only protection from scams is being smarter than the scammer is a world in which you (and everyone else, not singling you out) get scammed, too.
