    He starts by saying he didnt know and “that’s not cool” but than changes his story and now it was totaly the plan all along. But on top of this, for years he would say all money they receive would be donated including things like twitch subscriptions and all that but now he says they used that money for their own costs. But wait there’s more! His familly also runs a golf tournament which was supposed to donate all the money they recive to his charity but that money is nowhere to be found.

    And to top it all off, he keeps bringing up his dead mother to try to get sympathy. The Completionist is a COMPLETE scumbag and a consistent liar, you cant trust a word he says. Oh and he is threatening to sue the people that brought his clear fraud to light.

    I think that covers it

      changes his story

      I’m not going to defend or attack the guy, merely point out that facts. How much he knew and when is certainly up for debate, we just have limited evidence of that.

      What we do have are facts, and those facts can certainly be used for cause for tht authorities to investigate.

      His family also runs a golf tournament which was supposed to donate all the money they recive to his charity

      That’s partially true. What we know is that his dad runs a golf tournament and put the Open Hand Foundation on the ads. Usually this means all proceeds go to the charity, or at least that they get the sponsorship money (i.e. merch and whatnot) according to the prices they have listed for sponsors, but we don’t have the actual agreement AFAIK between the tournament and the charity.

      So there’s certainly enough to warrant an investigation, but not enough to actually prove any kind of crime. There does seem to be enough to prove negligence for holding onto the money for 10 years though, which should be enough to trigger a thorough audit, including alleged golf tournament income.

      And that’s what I don’t like about this whole thing. They’ve already presented facts and contacted the relevant authorities, so anything further they say is conjecture and therefore YouTube drama. The first video by Mutahar was informative, the second was a bit of drama (they should’ve investigated the golf thing a bit more), the third was just dunking on him, and any further videos I see that aren’t directly related to an investigation are pure Internet drama at this point.
