You cannot justify wrong because he made videos promoting your service, he duped facebook for $350 and I think that is not fair & he is going to pay for it.

Yes I understand that. But think about it. Even though he scammed facebook for $350k, think about how many people have been scammed by facebooks updates and how many legitimate business owners facebook have f*cked over with their "UPDATES" and "ACCOUNT CLOSURES" I know I haven't been helped by facebook in any way, so I have no cares that they were taken the way they were. I make NO MONEY from facebook.

No one gets duped by Facebook, you can choose to use their website or you can choose not to. If they update their algo and you don't like it, you can leave their website. The difference is, when you sign up and agree to their TOS you then have to live under their roof where they make all the rules and have all the power so if YOU do something they don't like or break their rules then it's up to them what they do and there is nothing you can do about it.
I'm not defending Facebook but this is a really stupid argument. "He's a New yorker, like me. So I like him." LOL

This is worth a read : http://digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1734&context=historical
OP, I thought he was trolling you in those videos not promoting your service.
Anyway I don't know the guy apart from reading his posts in your WF thread, he got caught so I won't say too much.
Will wait for the verdict and see what the outcome is but $350000 is not a lot of money to spend the next 5-10 in debt trying to pay it back. He might find it hard to rebuild his career as who is going to extend him credit/ad accounts now. Unless some sleazy company wants him for a PR stunt "‘Wolf of Wall Street' wannabe"
If he had played it legit, who knows he might have made some real money.
Trust me, he might have been cocky in those videos etc but I bet he is bricking it now.
If he learns something from it then fair enough.
When I was 18, I got into trouble and almost went to prison. The amount of money involved was a lot smaller but it still took a long time to get back on my feet. Once you lose peoples trust it can take an eternity to get back and in some cases you never do.
Honesty and Integrity are essential in business, once lost nobody will want to deal with you, I learnt that the hard way.

I dont know what you mean by fake man but you need to grow up. I've seen over $100,000 this year online, and obviously my boy Martin has seen over $350,000 so the money is very real. Grow up.

NO. Its not a good reason to create a new video, I wanted to make $500,000 this year so Im not high enough man. Im actually behind, and have to make alot more money to hit my goal. Also, I hope Martin doesn't have to do jail time from this man. Im sure facebook will work something out with him.

Sorry I have to agree that FB is screwing people. Facebook took my money for likes I accumulated 100s of thousands of likes over the years and now they are worthless. If that isnt a screw over I'm gonna start selling people lists of customers and then, when I want some more money I am going to charge you to talk to those customers. Bait and switch.
Google has done similar things but the difference is people are gaming Google... then Google gets wise. No one who bought likes from FB was gaming them. We were playing by the rules and then half way through the game, FB decided that they were going to change the rules.

these sobs make too much money.. It shouldn't be a crime to exploit their platforms. While they exploit their advertisers and users in general.
