Ex Fortnite pro Chap accuses Twitch of taking money from him and disabling ads on channel Chap\/TwitchRetired Fortnite pro Ryan \u2018Chap\u2019 Chaplo is accusing Twitch of taking a large sum of money from him and disabling ads on his channel after being flagged for \u201cfraud,\u201d but he has no idea why. Chap has been retired from Fortnite for quite some time, but was seeing some nice success on Twitch by streaming The Cycle Frontier. He was getting viewership on par with his Fortnite days, but that all came to a vicious end. On November 14, the streamer revealed that he was making the most money he ever had in his life when suddenly, his payment method wasn\u2019t working for Twitch. After speaking with his partner manager, Chap learned his account had been flagged for \u201cfraud\u201d and Twitch needed to investigate the situation. \u201cI just assumed that someone had donated subs or bits with a stolen credit card, but apparently that is not what they meant,\u201d the streamer explained. Twitch accused of taking money from streamer Chap was then informed that Twitch was terminating his participation in the Ads Program and claims the Amazon-owned company took a \u201clarge\u201d portion of his pending balance. To make matters worse, Chap says Twitch refused to explain what he had done, making it impossible to even appeal, writing that he still has no idea what he\u2019s been accused of. \u201cThis is absolutely ridiculous to do to anyone, especially someone who has streamed on your website for 4 years with ZERO issues, bans, or ANYTHING. The only thing I am able to do is to make the assumption that Twitch is claiming that I view botted my channel during drops to make more money off of ads,\u201d he blasted. In a series of Discord screenshots, Chap shared a conversation he had with his Twitch partner manager, and even they don\u2019t seem to know what the streamer was accused of doing. Explaining why he went public, Chap said he felt \u201cbetrayed\u201d by Twitch and doesn\u2019t want others to be in his position. \u201cI feel helpless and I am not sure what to do other than to go public with this and try to make it so this never happens to anyone ever again,\u201d the streamer said. It\u2019s not clear yet if going public will help the situation, but hopefully the streamer and Twitch can finally get to the bottom of exactly what\u2019s going on with his account.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
