Maybe not. Bernie Madoff got a 150-year sentence for his financial crimes.
Good, hopefully Brittany Dawn is next. The state of Texas is suing her for scamming many with her “fitness plans.” She “helped” a homeless man with his alcoholism by raising around 25k on gofundme but… Who knows where it went? She transitioned to running a trendy Christian ministry that charges hundreds and also is “fostering” babies while monetizing them for her content. Would love to see her held accountable. >

Brittany Dawn is terrible and I really hope her GFM scheme, as well as allllll the other awful things she does, gets more attention soon.  The recent monetized fostering was unbelievable. >

This is the lady from the heartwarming story of a homeless vet giving his money to help her out. >

wow.  that story was so believable too.  this is the kind of shit that makes me more and more jaded when i hear stories about people falling on hard times or whatever.  
it's getting so frustrating. >

Almost like charity isn't a good solution for systemic issues like poverty alleviation. >

For real. America loves these headlines but I’m like… we just celebrated a victim of systemic poverty winning the lottery. And hey, it was a scam all along, lol. >

Brittany Dawn has entered the chat. /r/brittanydawnsnark >

More time in prison than the bankers that crashed our economy multiple times in the past two decades. >

Sad but true. That Wells Fargo exec who peed on a woman mid-flight will get more time for that than anyone got. >

That’s what still fucking infuriates me. None of them got any punishment for the lives the destroyed. My dad is working in his 70s because his retirement 401k practically disappeared. None of them got anything but a fucking bailout to save their asses. >

System working as intended. It's in their best interest to not go after each other all the time, at the expense of everyone else. >

Wasn't that a relatively small player though? They never did anything to the big name execs. >

If the couple hadn't gotten greedy and had given the homeless guy his full share, they probably would have gotten away with it. >

Except the homeless man was also charged and took part in the fraudulent act but must have decided that 75k wasn't enough when he heard how much the go fund me really made. They're all greedy and stupid together. >

Why would you turn them in when you’re homeless and you can get $75k… >

Greed. Someone always has more. >

What? Getting 75k is a once in a lifetime occurrence. Homeless dude should have just accepted the money >

Not all homeless people are just unlucky and unfortunate. Some are just really stupid. >

They honestly would have gotten away with it if that had given the dude like 75%.  
Dude probably would have been happy and they got a bunch of cash.  Their next worry would be explaining it on taxes. >

The dude was in on the scam, so it's hard to say if he would have ever been happy and not just chased for more money.
Also it's not unlikely the gofundme by itself is enough to settle the tax question. Very few situations actually get a full investigated audit. >

Has anyone ever gotten away with one of these donation scams? >

Did he lose the $75k? >

So he's still homeless I'm guessing. >

Got sent to rehab. Basically win win >

Yet the former president scams a whole country and nothing? >

She will do more time than SBF.
