PayPal Refuses to Refund Twitch Troll Who Donated $50,000

Twitch has become incredibly popular in recent years and given a platform for certain streamers to earn a living via donations and sponsorship. Clearly, whenever individuals are in the public eye, they can receive trolling in various different forms. Unbelievably, one user who goes by the name of iNexus_Ninja decided to donate vast sums of money to various Twitch streamers ranging from $1,000 all the way up to $5,000. According to a NeoGaf thread, this person donated at least $50,000 and apparently comes from a very wealthy family. Judging by his Twitter account, the 18-year-old appears to have a very casual attitude towards spending thousands of dollars. Even more absurd, his masterplan involved donating the money, then waiting a month before demanding a chargeback via PayPal.

LOL! Just a story of another rich spoiled kid.

One that I hope sticks as a warning for all trolls.

gizmig2877d ago

Absolutely but these rich spoiled kids never learn. I have seen it myself some of them do way more stupid things and laugh on their own stupidity.

This isn't a good situation for anyone. I wouldn't be surprised if the kid can get a lawyer to help with this.

-Mezzo-2877d ago

It's possible he might get out of this without even having to consult a lawyer, a mere threat of a lawyer to PayPal should force them to refund his money, because it's in their Terms & Conditions.

I am so happy that this happened, and I hope this serves as a cautionary tale for Trolls of the future.

You know what? Good. Serves them right, playing with people like that. I've no time for 'trolls' whose only enjoyment is ruining people's happiness.
