FaZe Clan dropped Kay over his alleged involvement in the controversial SaveTheKids crypto pump and dump scam. He admitted it was \u201cirresponsible\u201d for him to promote cryptocurrencies without knowing more, but urged fans to not believe everything they\u2019re hearing. Now, after confirming his initial response to the scandal was a \u201cscript made by lawyers\u201d to save face while they gathered evidence, he shared his thoughts on the situation and blamed it all on one person, Sam Pepper. I just uploaded what really happened with save the kids and all the drama. Sorry it\u2019s taken me so long to come out and speak. I had a lot to say. \u2014 Kay (@FrazierKay) August 13, 2021 \u201cI would never, in a million years, purposefully or intentionally try to harm, take advantage, or scam anybody,\u201d he said. \u201cI am no crypto mastermind. I am a content creator who trusted the wrong people, and it\u2019s led to this disaster.\u201d The person he\u2019s referring to is Sam Pepper, who Kay names as FaZe Clan\u2019s former Head of Content. Kay claims Pepper \u201cintroduced\u201d him to the world of cryptocurrency. \u201cWithout him, I wouldn\u2019t be in this position I am in today, and I would not be making this video,\u201d he said. \u201cI trusted [him] to give legitimate advice and make proper decisions because he presented himself this whole time as an expert. I, in no way, thought he would ever f**k me over and his so-called friends, my family, and most importantly, all of my fans.\u201d Kay said that Sam made \u201call of the decisions,\u201d including the token design and art, the website, the pre-sale, and everything else that led to the current predicament. He admitted that trusting him was a \u201cmassive mistake.\u201d Despite maintaining his innocence and insisting he was \u201ctricked,\u201d Kay is committed to paying as many people back as possible out of his own pocket. \u201cI feel awful that this ever happened, and I just want to do everything I can to fix it.\u201d Kay reportedly lost $37,000 on the project, and insisted that no former FaZe members profited from it either.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kay blames ex-FaZe employee for SaveTheKids scandal: \u201cTrusting him was a mistake\u201d YouTube: KayFrazier \u2018Kay\u2019 Khattri revealed his side of the story behind the SaveTheKids crypto scandal, claiming former FaZe Head of Content, Sam Pepper, orchestrated the scam.
