  1. Why the SEC is a non regulating body and the banks get away with larceny.

  2. and how does this help anyone? she made more than a million so this boils down to cost of advertising and uncle sam taking his cut of the proceeds.. it doesnt go to people scammed. its a payout to the government. until fines and punishments are levied out by percentage of income or worth so that it hurts equally, the rich simply pay running costs, not fines. 100 bucks to me is not the same punishment as a 100 bucks to a jkardasian. pharma makes billions and gets fined millions.. for real? idiots running things.

  3. Gul Kim the cardassian more like it.

  4. Yes, get all of them!!!

  5. Whether it is the Trumps or the Kardashians, it is a race to bankrupt Americans.

  6. So she scams a bunch of people and the government takes 1.3mil from her. Does that money go back to the people she ripped off? Something tells me the answer is no.

  7. And it won't even phase her. Next story

  8. All the people who promote garbage and scams when will they pay 1 million in fines? Only because its crypto

  9. She should have to pay for everyoneโ€™s losses itโ€™s not hard!

  10. SHE COMMITTED FRAUD, SHE SHOULD GO TO JAIL, WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY AND THESE HOOKERS SO EXTREMELY GREEDY.

  12. Make an example out of her, make it 100 million! She is as fake as the crap that has made her!

  13. For anyone else, this would be the end of any hopes of a legal career. Wanna bet it will not affect her, at all?

  14. Itโ€™s more than a million. Get ur facts straight.

  15. Lets forget about the thousands of YouTubers promoting tokens also that aren't legit. ๐Ÿคฃ
