Jake Paul responds to claims of promoting gambling to kids Jake Paul, YouTube \/ Cubbie Lee ToysControversial YouTuber Jake Paul has finally given a response to widespread claims that he is promoting gambling to children, after uploading a video advertising an alleged scam website in late December of 2018. Jake Paul appeared to address concern over the issue in a Tweet on January 3, giving a short warning to younger members of his audience. \u201cKids, just a reminder\u2026 don\u2019t gamble!\u201d Paul wrote. He likewise responded to popular YouTuber Ethan Klein\u2019s comments on the matter, who called out Paul for \u201cintroducing what is quite literally gambling\u201d to his \u201ceight to 12 year old\u201d viewer base. Paul replied to Klein\u2019s critical video with a lighthearted Tweet, simply stating, \u201cLol, love this vid \u2665.\u201d Klein gave an incredulous answer to the post, writing, \u201cYou loved being called out for selling a gambling scam to underage kids? K.\u201d Paul appeared to stick to his guns, answering with, \u201cYes, love it!\u201d shortly thereafter. You loved being called out for selling a gambling scam to underage kids? K https:\/\/t.co\/mWsJGnnZ4j \u2014 Ethan Klein (@h3h3productions) January 2, 2019 Paul isn\u2019t the only big YouTuber to have advertised the website, either; social media star Bryan \u2018Ricegum\u2019 Le also promoted \u2018mysterybrand.net\u2019 in a video of his own on December 31, which he later decried in a reaction video on January 3, 2019. Ricegum claimed that he was offered an amount far beyond the $100,000 dollars allegedly offered to Drama Alert\u2019s Daniel \u2018KEEMSTAR\u2019 Keem, feeling that the deal was lucrative enough for him to go through with the promo. However, the YouTuber expressed some remorse due to the video, stating, \u201cI\u2019m kind of defending myself, but I do know that I\u2019m somewhat in the wrong.\u201d Paul has yet to speak further on the matter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
