Thai YouTuber Nutty is now accused of fooling her followers, leading to a multimillion-dollar scam. Authorities are now looking for content creator.
Natthamon Khongchak, who also goes by the nickname "Nutty, "Leah," or "Suchata," is a popular YouTuber who posts dance and music content.
But, it seems like she also has other hobbies aside from dancing. On her official Instagram account, Nutty is also known for her foreign exchange private courses.
She even shares her wealth through her IG photos, claiming that most of her profits come from FX trading. Using her popularity, the YouTuber was able to fool many of her followers into investing in forex, as stated by police authorities.
Thai YouTuber Nutty Allegedly Involved in Forex Scam!
According to News.Com AU's latest report, Nutty allegedly scammed more than 6,000 individuals. She said to these followers that if they invest in FX, they will be able to receive 35% of their investments if they wire through cash.
The transactions between Nutty and her investors didn't actually go as planned. The latest Instagram video of the Thai online influencer confirmed that her broker blocked her trading account and funds since March.
As of writing, she still owes her investors around $27 million. But, Nutty promised that she would try her best to return the money from her fans.
"I promise to do everything possible to get money back to everyone, both trade and other work in conjunction, for the fastest refund," said the YouTuber via her official Instagram post.
Warrant of Arrest Has Been Issued
NDTV reported that the Thailand police unit issued an arrest warrant against Natthamon. As of press time, authorities already received hundreds of complaints from the YouTuber's followers.
Nutty is still nowhere to be found, leading to speculations that the online influencer already fled the country.
But, many trusted sources clarified that the YouTuber's immigration records show that the woman hasn't left Thailand.
Previously, FTC's report revealed that U.S. residents have already lost more than $1 billion because of crypto scams.
On the other hand, the FBI issued a warning against crypto ATM frauds.
