Heard about the @Nestrelol situation (supposedly used stolen credit cards to buy bits to donate).

This situation sucks for everyone involved.

I guess, thread time (1/n)
First and foremost, I found out today listening to a stream, so it& #39;s likely y& #39;all know more about the evidence than I do, but I& #39;ll try to write this thread from a neutral viewpoint.
First, to the affected streamers: short-term it sucks really bad and it sucks you all have to go through it.
For the streamers I support that are affected, I& #39;ll see what I can do to help (many of you I& #39;ve already hit up on Twitter or Discord) to see if you were affected.
To the streamers, this represents a loss of income, and in some cases a sizable one. It particularly hurts those who& #39;ve planned purchases and stuff based on it.
To the community, if true, it& #39;s a betrayal of trust. This is a good, but painful, example of why those you value in life, or in a Twitch stream, should not be based on what they spend, but rather what they add/bring to your life.

memories > money

True friends add value beyond $
And finally, using stolen credit cards to buy bits/subs (or telling your CC provider they are stolen) is fraud, and interstate fraud at that. Which falls into the FBI jurisdiction. It& #39;s a major crime.

Fraud is not a joke. It& #39;s a crime.
The FBI can and will find you if you try something like this. They have virtually unlimited resources (superior money, manpower, technology, intelligence) to whatever you have.
Crime doesn& #39;t pay, and 60 seconds of a streamer& #39;s appreciation for (unknowingly) stolen money is not worth it.

Don& #39;t spend money on Twitch you cannot afford.

I& #39;ll end this thread on that.
