    “If convicted, Farrer faces up to 20 years in prison…
    He confessed to running a Ponzi scheme and he almost does not seem to understand it,” LMAO

    Tugger Tony is going to have a fun time in jail, AGAIN

    I wonder what Adrian thinks of this “genius marketing strategy” now

        When Tugger Tony went dark and disappeared with all the consignment pieces of his clients, Adrian made a video calling it a “genius marketing strategy” move. Everyone with two brain cells could tell it was obviously a scam by a Tony the convict, but not Adrian. He got so roasted in his own YT video that he had to take it down (as with many of his other videos with absolutely stupid takes like that one)

        You can tell Adrian is not a very smart person because when this happened Adrian was selling merch in his own website. So if he considers someone who runs a business and suddenly disappears with all his clients money a “genius marketing strategy”, you can imagine how much Adrian actually cares about his own customers… The guy is a spoiled douche

    I’m genuinely embarrassed by the number of scammers and criminals who have gotten busted thanks to YouTube videos and IG posts in recent years. You’re running a profitable criminal enterprise, all you have to do is keep your mouth and don’t attract unnecessary attention, and you blow it all up and give the DA a case for a few likes from strangers on the internet? Truly a disgrace to the fine, noble history of con men and organized crime.

    LOL, wtf, this guy’s the Sam Bankmab Fried of watch world. There’s a parallel to be drawn between watch and crypto. There’s a huge overlap in crypto bros and watch bros.

    Jesus. I’ve been following this over in another subreddit for a while. I am surprised it took them this long to finally throw his ass in jail. Also a lot of people estimate its closer to $5 million but this is a good start.

      I hope not. He seemed like the one sane person back when he was with TPG.

    20 years doesn’t seem completely fair for 3 million if there are guys who stole many more millions running for president.

      What you’re saying is “lots of people are getting insufficient sentencing”, yes? I’d love to see trump sentenced in the same way as this dude.

        You should hear them talk! It’s like they swallowed the ‘Bro dictionary’

        Every other sentence is on the the following:

        " Bro, last night was lit!"

        “Bro, my RM and Ferrari are worth a million dollars, no cap”

        “Bro, that’s fire!”

        I honestly drop IQ points any time I attempt to watch it

    He’s already been to prison and he has no problem jerking guys off. He will thrive in jail.
