Class-Action Lawsuit Filed Against Logan Paul, CryptoZoo for Alleged Crypto Scam
A class-action lawsuit alleging fraud has been filed against YouTube star Logan Paul and CryptoZoo, claiming that the pair stole millions of dollars worth of cryptocurrency from purchasers of their nonfungible tokens (NFTs).
The lawsuit was filed on February 2 in the District Court of the Western District of Texas by plaintiff Don Holland. According to the filing, Paul and CryptoZoo executives marketed the NFTs to purchasers by falsely claiming that they would receive rewards and exclusive access to other crypto assets, when in reality the funds were transferred to wallets controlled by the defendants.
The lawsuit was submitted by attorneys from Ellzey & Associates and Attorney Tom and Associates, the law firm run by YouTube personality Attorney Tom. In a YouTube video on January 16, Attorney Tom said that he had been investigating the case for weeks and had spoken to numerous CryptoZoo victims.
In addition to Paul and CryptoZoo, the lawsuit also names Danielle Strobel, Jeff Levin, Eddie Ibanez, Jake Greenbaum (Crypto King) and Ophir Bentov (Ben Roth) as defendants.
In response to the allegations, Paul has unveiled a $1.5 million recovery plan for disgruntled investors in the CryptoZoo project. The plan consists of three stages, beginning with Paul and Levin burning their ZOO token holdings, with no financial upside for either of them.
The second stage involves Paul personally committing 1,000 Ether (ETH) to the project so that investors can burn their NFTs to get their initial investment of 0.1 ETH back. The third and final stage is to deliver the game as outlined in the whitepaper.
The lawsuit is the latest development in the ongoing saga of NFTs and their promotion. As the use of NFTs continues to rise, so too does the need for effective NFT marketing strategies.
As such, many companies are now turning to web3 agencies and NFT marketing agencies to help them navigate the complex world of NFTs. These agencies specialize in helping companies to promote their NFTs on social media platforms such as Twitter, as well as developing strategies for selling NFTs and increasing their reach.
The CryptoZoo case is a reminder of the importance of working with legitimate web3 agencies and NFT marketing agencies when it comes to promoting and selling NFTs. While the case is still ongoing, it is a stark reminder of the potential risks associated with investing in NFTs and the importance of doing your due diligence when it comes to investing in crypto assets.
