Falling for This Scam is Nuts 🤑
Imagine getting scammed not once, not twice, but three times by the same 13-year-old kid. That’s exactly what happened in the bizarre saga of a meme coin called Quant. Over a series of rug pulls, this kid walked away with $50,000 — and yes, many of the same investors fell for it each time.
Here’s how it happened:
1️⃣ Round 1: The kid launched a meme coin called Quant, promised big returns, and then rug-pulled the investors for $30K.
2️⃣ Round 2: He launched another coin called "I’m Sorry," pretending it was a redemption arc. People actually believed him and lost another $10K.
3️⃣ Round 3: He tried again with a coin named after his dog and scammed investors for yet another $10K.
What’s mind-blowing? Many of the victims were grown adults who fell for the same scam repeatedly. An expert analyst said it best: "If you got scammed by a 13-year-old, you probably deserve it."
Crypto FOMO (fear of missing out) drives people to throw money into shady, unregulated coins like this, hoping to catch a quick moonshot. But scams like these are designed to enrich insiders — not investors.
This saga didn’t end with the scams, either. Some salty investors tried to pump the value of the coin after the rug pull, supposedly to “make the kid feel bad” by showing him how much money he could’ve made. But honestly? It feels like a desperate move to scam others into buying so they could escape with their money.
The lesson here: Be cautious with meme coins and unregulated crypto projects. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Don’t get caught chasing hype — or you might end up outsmarted by a middle schooler.
