2. Soulja Boy
from The Ripoff Hosted by Tomorrow's Nobody
Soulja Boy (Tell-em) became a pop culture phenomenon in 2007 when his single "Crank That" hit number 1 on U.S. Bilboard Hot 100. Even his music career started through small scams using the new music sharing websites like Lime Wire and Napster. When his popularity continued to grow, he continued scamming. He has owned multiple "businesses" that sell knock-off products with his name plastered on them, claimed a fake 400 million dollar endorsement deal, and was recently named in a lawsuit for the SafeMoon crypto pump and dump scheme along with Jake Paul, Lil Yachty, Nick Carter, and Ben Phillips. He's also been scammed by many of the companies he's worked with... is Souja Boy the scammer or the scammed? ______________________________________________ The Ripoff is a podcast all about scams!
