On July 1, FaZe Clan announced that they would be removing Kay as well as suspending Jarvis, Teeqo and Nikan from the organization following an alleged pump and dump cryptocurrency scam. Those members and close collaborators Sommer Ray and RiceGum heavily advertised a crypto token called \u2018Save the Kids\u2019, paid by the creators to promote it before \u2018dumping\u2019 their investments after launch. In a statement made by the organization, they said: \u201cFaZe Clan had absolutely no involvement with our member\u2019s activity in the cryptocurrency space.

This includes xQc, who took to mocking the FaZe members while watching Coffeezilla\u2019s in-depth breakdown that exposed the alleged scam. \u201cIt\u2019s almost confirmed that they all knew about it,\u201d he said during a July 7 stream. \u201cThere\u2019s six of them. You think these guys didn\u2019t go upstairs, make a Hot Pocket and say \u2018Yo bruh, I got this offer, I\u2019m getting paid $200k for this weird thing and all I got to do is make a tweet!\u2019 That\u2019s how it works.\u201d xQc isn\u2019t the first to mock or comment on the FaZe Clan situation. HasanAbi also accused FaZe of using the RiceGum vs Adin Ross beef as a cover-up to take the heat off of FaZe Clan in the wake of the scandal. Similarly, Pokimane questioned why rich people such as those involved would still do illegal stuff to make money. None of the dropped or suspended members have publicly commented on the situation yet, but FaZe co-owner Banks explained that it was his decision to take action against them \u2014 but that it\u2019s still \u201cup to them\u201d to make a comeback.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>xQc mocks disgraced FaZe Clan members over crypto scam: \u201cThey all knew\u201d Twitch: xQcow\/FaZe ClanNever one to shy away from the controversial topics, top Twitch star Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel mocked the shamed FaZe Clan members involved in the cryptocurrency scam drama during a livestream.
