No one really knows bro i had so much pressure on my dog with everything to do this guy’s been scheming for so long and now he’s about to lose everything this whole thing was a scam it was a scam yeah in reality like you guys got scammed [Music] austin mcbroom is the perfect example of someone who let greed destroy their life when nothing is ever good enough and you constantly want more and more and more eventually you’ll end up with nothing and things can quickly turn into a circus [Applause] [Music] [Music] hello friends and internet acquaintances
Welcome or welcome back to the channel today’s video is another video in a series i’m doing on my channel all about influencer scams the rise in social media and the rise in social media influencers has seemingly brought about a rise in scams and shady businesses so this series that i do on my channel is all about covering those scams and shady businesses mainly through a few different specific influencers who have participated in a lot of them comment down below an influencer that you think i should cover next and thank you to
Everyone who commented suggestions on my tana mojo video that gave me ideas and is the reason why i’m doing this video today and today’s influencer scammer is the infamous austin mcbroom what’s going on everybody [Music] [Applause] family vlogger basketball player and general goon austin mcbroom the amount of scams and shady businesses that this dude has been a part of is insane before getting into this video a quick disclaimer this video is not meant to point out every single bad thing that austin mcgroom has ever done ever that
Would probably be a multiple part series because there’s a lot to cover on that this video’s sole purpose is just to highlight the many scams and shady business practices of austin mcbroom to hopefully inform others and help people be able to watch out and avoid scams this video is also a kind of part one of a two-part series i thought instead of just covering the ace family scams i would cover austin mcbroom and then catherine his other half or better half in another two-part series video there’s a lot to talk about regarding both
Catherine and austin so uh strap in get some snacks and we’re about to dive into it but before we do if you like videos like these then uh subscribe to the channel if you haven’t already and you want to and if you like this video don’t forget to give it a like also if you want to and let’s get into the video so who is austin mcbroom no no i’m gonna say it on camera today okay god okay my hair was fucked up according to the site blogograph which sounds like a very reliable source austin mcbroom is an american youtube
Star basketballer and internet sensation that’s one way to put it austin alongside his partner catherine runs the youtube channel the ace family we’re known as a family vlogging channel we got like a couple of viral videos i believe our youtube channel name was awesome captain blogs or not it was not the asean we changed it to the family like three four months after for those who do not know or haven’t noticed already we changed our youtube name the ace family youtube channel has been extremely extremely successful and has
Over 18 million subscribers which is a number i can’t even begin to fathom austin mcbroom is also apparently a former pro basketball player so austin has always been like a very competitive person like ever since i met him he’s just very competitive he’s an athlete he’s been training his entire life literally since he was a child well i’ve had uh d1 college basketball d1 college basketball scholarship but as much as austin would like you to believe otherwise he is not most well known for his incredible basketball skills or good
Basketball skills i really don’t know if he’s good or not i don’t know enough about basketball austin is most well known for the massive massive amounts of controversy that he’s run into during his time as a family vlogger which family vlogger and controversy shouldn’t be things that go together yet time and time again it seems that family vloggers are the most controversial hmm interesting choosing to exploit your children leads you to being a controversial person i would have never guessed originally catherine and austin
Launched their youtube channel in 2016 as one of those standard couples prank youtube channels oh i forgot to shut up are you okay but they quickly shifted into a family channel after the birth of their first child and very soon after the ace family youtube channel became one of the most profitable youtube channels of all time but that wasn’t without a lot of bumps in the road is that the saying the ace family has faced a number of controversies mainly at the hands of austin mcbroom and through the actions of austin mcbroom having a massive
Amount of followers subscribers and fans gives you a massive amount of power and a lot of influencers seem to know this and while some may use their power for good most seem to use that massive amount of power to start a bunch of shady businesses and scams and manipulate their audience and fan base into buying whatever it is they’re selling whether it’s good or not so let’s dissect some of the shady businesses and scams that austin mcgroom has been a part of [Music] first off the charity scam [Music] how far can you go with lying to
Yourself and the people who support you you can only get so far to the point when if you lie too much you can’t keep up with your lives in june of 2018 the ace family claimed they’d be donating a hundred thousand dollars from money raised through a basketball charity the winner of that game will receive a hundred thousand dollar check to donate to charity each player on that team will get a portion of the money to donate to their choice and guys that’s the best part about this event is to be able to give back to us there’s nothing better
In the world to give back so with that being said the event was held at a stadium and tickets were sold which the ace family claimed would help contribute to the charity you all will be able to purchase the ace families charity basketball you’ve been finally this saturday at midnight if you guys have been asking us how much are the tickets and we wanted to make it affordable across the board for everyone so the tickets are gonna be 45 and the event ended up being a massive massive hit and completely sold out the stadium for this basketball
Charity event was packed and a lot of people have estimated that the money brought in from even just ticket sales alone was upwards of four hundred thousand dollars and they sold over 10 200 tickets because that’s the capacity of the entire event fifty one thousand dollars plus thirty two thousand dollars plus four hundred and sixty thousand dollars the answer is about five hundred forty three thousand us dollars joanne the scammer is shook and yet the ace family didn’t even give away the a hundred thousand dollars that they had
Promised from the charity event at the end of the entire basketball game when they were holding up a check the check was only written for seventy five thousand dollars i guess it was said that they were going to donate a hundred thousand dollars to charity and then at the event they only had a check written for seventy five thousand dollars not a hundred thousand dollars you do have to have um security you do have to have things like that but the amount of money that they put pulled into the event is still not adding up
Where did that 25 000 go that’s such a random amount to just take off of a charity event a lot of charities like this are also intended to be tax write-offs for the rich that’s just another thing to throw in there a lot of the very very wealthy will use charities as a way to get tax write-offs which may still be better than not giving anything away at all though i know i’ve gotten a lot of comments on my videos about how there are a lot of charity scams out there and a lot of charities that don’t do as much good as they promise so you
Have to be really selective when giving away to charity a lot that goes into events i would love to make a video and like more in depth of what actually goes on to doing an event of this magnitude um you shouldn’t say that because they’re gonna be saying yeah do that captain we wanna see numbers and charts we got time for that let’s just move on but yeah all the next questions they’re a part of a family family they know what it is first of all katherine i have never done anything like that at all as you all know this was our first time and i
Believe it might have been the first time someone has hosted an event like that a lot of people make more money when it comes to charity events because people give their money thinking that they’re giving to a good cause because they put that they were doing this for a good cause i think that made a lot of their young fans parents fork over the 50 ticket price to go to this basketball game there was also a second basketball charity event and i’m just exhausted at this point [Music] austin mcbroom was also accused by a
Small artist of stealing merch people was hitting me up mad like you’re not the only one he ripped off he’s been ripping people off according to this artist austin mcbroom got in contact with this smaller artist for the bands that they were making so hit me up and then uh verbally on the phone he was like yeah bro i really fuck with this shit let’s put something together talking about his headband i like his headbands in the store saw some headbands him up on a collab austin approached this artist and said i love
Your art i’d love to work with you maybe we can collaborate and do something for my youtube channel and this artist was really excited it’s great exposure also a great business deal so he was all in and all on board this artist shared all of his business ideas with austin mcbroom only to end up getting ghosted by austin mcbroom and then later find out that austin just cut around him made his own bands that looked almost identical and stole all of this artist’s ideas and a couple days later i seen on youtube he had on the bench that looked
Like my dance for him and his daughter he was trying to get over on me so i said you know what bruh you know what i’m gonna have my grandma making my own headbands because everybody sell headbands in stores everybody all the stores you’re the first headband maker fuck you think you are you doing better headbands idiot somebody my hair bands he got mad i posted it and i had a little following he got mad with my headbands with l he was like this dude he he tried to take my idea he took my the idea where you put the banner on your head and you
Cross it and you tie it and you put it in your head he stole that from me austin from the ace family stole my art and i don’t like him what a great thing to do so already you can tell what kind of person austin mcbroom is then in july of 2018 some pretty gross tweets made by austin mcbroom were uncovered and slowly but surely this family-friendly persona or facade that austin had put up had began to crack one of the ace family’s former editors also came out and said that the ace family never paid him and would have him work for quote-unquote
Exposure this director claims that he wasn’t paid what he was worth he was only paid 150 dollars for his contributions and his work and he wasn’t credited like he was supposed to this thing is a whole jumbo mess because originally we had we kicked it off amazingly but it ended up taking a turn where it got weird was when if you’re not going to just credit me for the video i provide you with then just pay me my regular rate austin turned around and said that he was complaining about not getting paid for promotion exposure
And clout which doesn’t make sense because if that’s what he wanted in the first place wouldn’t he just keep working for you for free for that quote-unquote clout a lot of people gotta lie about on us so yeah so like i said we made a problem how many total videos don’t know it was like some shit was little like i said on eight right in the beginning he was when he was working for us he was working for us for exposure to grow his business correct and then once we got bigger he randomly started asking for money oh hey sam we’re blowing up
I’m itching for that cloud pill i need that clout ace family blowing i got over 10 million subs i’m trying to get some attention i hope austin and catherine just treat people that help them build with a little more respect and think less of themselves because it seems like the whole world is centered around you and you really want to go hard bro let me just mention the fact that every time you guys are talking about giving back you’re also talking about the profits you’re going to make off shit then there was the entire ace club app
Mess they have used their platform and their privilege to scam their subscribers and they continue to scam people and they really just don’t care it is actually insane that he is getting away with this and i don’t know why youtube continues to support and promote people who are committing crimes and in my opinion allegedly this is a crime in mid-2018 the ace family launched an app that was supposed to have a bunch of exclusive content it is very important to not only download the ace family app but to also turn on your push
Notifications so you guys can get an alert on all of our updates what we’re gonna put on our sections of the app we’re gonna do that later on we’re gonna start off with else and then we also have like really cool things about our app so we have like wallpapers and playlists and we’re gonna do giveaways and you guys can like receive prizes and stuff which is really cool free march and send you guys some birthday cards one thing we must say is if you download the asamu app we truly know that you are truly a part of the ace
Family but once fans actually purchased the app i started to notice that first off there wasn’t that much exclusive content on there anyways a waste of time they haven’t updated or restocked since november and people are still getting charged scam don’t download this app they just take your money scam they never post anything on here i canceled the membership months ago and i keep getting charged for it i used to be an ace family member and this app is a scam you can tell people are viciously upset with this family and they need to pay up
These people and stop scamming their subscribers and on top of that fans began to complain that their in-app purchases were either delayed by months or never even fulfilled aka fans never received product something that will begin to become a pattern in this video there’s actually a petition out there to delete the ace family’s youtube channel because someone was really upset that they have been scammed out of their merch that they have purchased and several people who have signed this petition also shared their experiences
How they did not receive their merch apart from the ace family app there was also the ace club website which was almost an identical situation where austin mcbroom used a third-party platform to develop the website and the website ended up having major major issues there are tons of people paying 20 a month for this subscription and the website isn’t working all of these problems were not fixed even though fans continued to complain so the next thing that we wanted to catch you up on is ace club a lot of you guys have been asking
About ace club we recently took the site down for maintenance so eventually the ace club completely shut down austin tried to explain the ace club app failure by basically blaming it on the developers saying that the developers had actually scammed the mcbrooms which in turn scammed all of their fans and users some of you guys have asked what has happened with the ace club and we’re doing exclusive with ace club um and unfortunately the people that we partnered with in that venture um they end up i don’t really like to
Talk negatively but they just weren’t good partners they end up unfortunately scamming us um and it kind of like hurt us in a way because in reality like you guys got scammed you guys got scammed um like the way the site was built it wasn’t built to the degree that we needed to be because obviously the ace family is one strong-ass army and come to find out the site wasn’t built well at all so you guys didn’t get the value in the quality you guys should have got and that’s why we were upset and unfortunately we had to
Stop the eggs club i love how in that statement austin acts like he’s some sort of hero for shutting down the app even though they kept it running for months and months and months after people were complaining that it wasn’t working and that they were being scammed but good on you for shutting it down months later on top of that as someone who has worked with developers before and knows the process behind that my theory personally is that austin and catherine paid off a developer a third-party developer to build the app but the thing is apps need
To be constantly worked on bugs need to be constantly fixed updates need to be put out especially with new apple software updates or ios updates and so there’s constant improvements that need to go into the app you can’t just pay a developer once and then have the whole thing built and ready to go it’s a constant process where you need to fund it and put more and more and more money into it and my theory personally is i don’t think catherine and austin or mainly austin knew that when going into working with the developer and i don’t
Think they really wanted to continue paying them to update the app at the end of the day austin can’t be applauded for eventually shutting down the app when he let a ton of his fans get scammed for months i mean that’s just not an accomplishment or something good at all no refund these family mentioned they refunded everyone that paid for this app so far no refund wow austin also claims that eventually they will be launching another ace family club app ace club app and it’s supposed to be a new and improved version so we all have that to look
Forward to the ace club we put a stop to it that was like six months ago or something like that and we ended up having to find a new partner which created us a new site um he’s been working on it for the past three or four months and just recently got done with it [Music] in january of 2019 the lollipop incident also occurred which was another incident that really shattered austin’s family friendly youtube ad friendly persona and the whole situation is really gross so i don’t want to go too in detail about it but austin was taking catherine’s
Younger sister who was a very very little girl around shopping in what looks like a mall but she said she’s going to steal it by itself and they go into a store which i believe was a spencer’s and the little girl insists that she wants to buy a lollipop this lollipop is a very inappropriately shaped lollipop and austin says yes and buys her the lollipop and worst of all films the whole thing as if it’s some sort of funny joke are you really making me buy this lollipop right now do you really want it oh god please bro right now keep down the back
Forever and most people who viewed that most reasonable logical people who viewed his snapchat story of this whole instant taking place we’re like yeah no that’s not a funny joke it really showed a different side to austin mcbroom austin has also been accused of cheating on catherine many many many many many times whatever i gotta ask there’s every month there’s cheating rumors about you going on you never address it is there a reason why one time austin mcbroom was cheating on catherine and the girl he was cheating on her with
Left a lipstick in his car and here’s where i’m a little ashamed we did end up doing the thing so after the fact i just kept hearing stories from other people that this is like what he does with girls and like all these other things i was just like disgusted with myself disgusted with him it still hits me up to this day and here’s the real proof that it’s really him what i do know for a goddamn fact is one of my friends has literally the ace guy and this is a situation that i kind of feel uncomfortable talking about because we
Really don’t know the inner details of austin and catherine’s relationship and they’re two adults who are able to make their own decisions in relationships and i don’t think that’s something we should necessarily judge them on we don’t know if they have an open relationship there’s lots of people who have open relationships and are happy and fine with that so you know who knows there have been a few very serious allegations regarding austin mcbroom one allegation that was in our word allegation but regarding that situation no victim ever
Fully came forward and the person that came out with the allegation was kind of picked apart in the media and accused of being a liar by multiple people so the whole situation ended up being this total mess that kind of made a mockery of a very very serious situation and i think at the end of the day we might not ever know the full story on that so i don’t want to speculate off of very little information but i thought i would throw that out there because i know a lot of people would definitely think that it’s an
Important thing for me to at least mention in this video [Music] he’s playing the same shit he did before the ace family also did another shady basketball event slash giveaway this year coming up very soon we’ll also be doing another basketball chairman where they had announced on their channel that they were doing a 100k basketball giveaway so yes ladies and gentlemen the ace family is giving away 100 000 damn so here are the rules location los angeles date friday january 11th time to be announced we’re only picking 20
Contestants for contestants must shoot from 10 different spots on the court whoever makes 10 shots in a row first wins 100k what is it with the 100k the charity was 100k now this giveaway is 100k i have to assume that it was for tax write-offs because it’s a very specific number but maybe it’s also just because 100k sounds cool when austin talked about the giveaway it was talked about as if a lucky random fan would be able to get the chance to have 100k all ages and genders are welcome if you think you can do it hit us up if you
Think your favorite youtuber or celebrity can do it make sure you tag them also put the video on my instagram so make sure you tag them in the comments guys it’s a 300k you don’t have to pay to enter although we suggest it’s up to you but we suggest whoever wins donates a portion to charity you all know captain i love giving back but it’s up to you and so a lot of people promoted the giveaway and a lot of fans got excited thinking they might have a possibility at winning this prize i mean 100k is a life-changing amount but the
Event did not end up being that when the teams for the giveaway were announced a bunch of famous youtubers were on the team so here’s the confirmed contestants that we have so far he got jake paul king batch rice gum and soulja boy but wait there’s more he also got face rug yg nick cannon and logan paul and the next people i see are ybn ddg jordan jones supreme patty jacob sartorius and alex wasabi all famous and rich people and the fans were really disappointed because it’s like okay so all of these team members are already
Rich and famous youtubers who out of these team members needs a hundred k not a lot of them a lot of people keep saying you’ll give it to someone who needs it like they kept saying everyone in the event you know makes a lot of money so they don’t need it then during the actual event no one actually was able to win the prize and it just kept going on and on and on with all of these youtubers basically failing at the entire thing so austin calls upon a random person from the crowd and who does he call upon exactly a close friend
Of his that he knew from his days playing basketball good basketball friend someone who actually played basketball college basketball i want them to come out let them get a chance too okay oh okay you can tell he can shoot he can shoot oh yeah he got that shot oh he got the rhythm this is it this is him and what do you know this dude ends up winning the prize in like just a few seconds super quickly super easily he wins the 100k somebody really won and the best part about it the person that one needs the money the most and he did
Say he’s gonna donate his portion of charity whatever it is give me anything just and something about that is just really really sketchy to me because once again there’s just no way to prove that austin actually gave away 100k to his friend they could have cut a deal and basically been like okay if you come in and win this giveaway i’ll give you like a small cut of this or something like that so it’s just kind of shady and also in general it was never a giveaway to begin with it was basically a gift exchange
Between friends he was the happiest in the world he said that a hundred thousand is the same amount he would have made overseas in three four years and he said that he’s gonna use the hundred thousand to move out of his parents house and he did say he’s gonna donate a portion of charity which is dope which is what we wanted and i believe him because he’s a good friend of mine forever so i trust him in that and it’s gonna change he’s gonna change a lot more because he really needs the money and that’s the best part about
This whole thing like he wasn’t even part of the contest that he wanted it’s just the way that it was blown out of proportion and the way that austin gave a lot of his fans hopes up is just really sad and on top of that the ace family has done a lot of questionable giveaways they’re always doing some sort of giveaway that’s supposed to give back to the fans but it never actually delivers on what it promises or a lot of it is just to benefit the ace family and give them more fame and attention which i think is just kind of a scummy thing
To do because you’re basically pretending to give back to your fans who look up to you and value you immensely and then you never actually do and just continue to take advantage of them for looking up to you that’s kind of scummy [Music] in 2020 the ace family launched their newest endeavor silly juice which was intended to be a new take on kids juices which also kind of tells you who their audience is if they’re creating a juice to market to children they probably don’t have a ton of adult audience members and silly juice is definitely a
Very silly brand for a number of reasons the first one being silly juice has an insane amount of sugar in it even though it’s kind of marketed as a better healthier option for juices it still has an insane amount of sugar and on top of that when people ordered silly juices and received their order so so many people reported packages that were either broken and damaged or even opened and had mold in it and this one so these are not i don’t even know why the freaking band came off and here’s another one so these are perfectly new you could see
That they still have guests and then i don’t know what the fuck that what came there but so you can see in this quick video this girl got an order of juice and it literally had one bottle completely drained there was mold on their bottles it’s like a blue mold which is a pretty serious thing especially if children are buying this maybe you want to figure that out yeah shady juice shady juice yet silly juice is still seemingly thriving and they’re still going strong and posting often on their social media about all of their juices so those were
Some of the earlier scams of austin mcbroom but let’s talk about some of the latest scams because there’s a lot of new developing things that have come out that we just have to talk about and there’s some of by far the worst scams in this video [Music] in february of 2021 austin mcbroom announced his latest ambitious business scheme i mean business venture called how i became a millionaire can you guess can you guess what type of business this is can you guess what this is my social media program i’m so excited for it just because i’ve always
Wanted to give knowledge knowledge we have only one to give game give knowledge on everything that we’ve experienced over the past five six years technically you could just google all of that for free but i’d rather hear it from austin if you’ve been following me for a little while you probably already know something i hate the most are these get rich quick schemes or courses that are supposed to teach you how to get rich quick the only people they ever benefit are the course sellers themselves or the get rich gurus
Um if you guys are interested in taking my program because my program consists of four courses which is how to grow your social media platforms how to make money from social media how to start a business and how to grow your business lately a ton of youtubers have decided to cross over into this realm and sell a quick and easy course basically because it’s super easy to just post a course promote it cash in quickly and then you’ll always notice a few months later the site ends up disappearing the instagram is totally
Inactive they’ve had exactly six posts on there every time i’ve checked and that follower number has only been going down so they’re not accepting anyone new so it’s probably safe to assume that they’re not keeping up with the 600 a year program that they make it’s not actually a sustainable business model and the only person that is getting rich quickly is the scammer the guru themselves so hi bam aka how i became a millionaire we’re gonna call it hi bam is an online learning program to teach users how to become millionaire social
Media influencers just like austin mcbroom austin is of course not the first youtuber to do this most notably jake paul has done multiple get rich quick courses or how to become a rich and famous social media star courses and i’ve noticed every youtuber who does this has a fairly young audience and instead of promoting the course on just how to get rich quickly like some of the other scammers we’ve talked about on this channel a lot of these youtubers promote it as how to become a rich and famous youtuber or social media star and
So i think a lot of these youtubers and influencers are capitalizing off of their young audience’s desire to become a youtuber one day they’re sort of capitalizing off of that parasocial relationship they know that their young audience looks up to them and wants to be them one day so what do you do if you’re a shady shitty person who wants to capitalize off of your audience’s admiration of you you sell them a course and give them the promise that they can be able to become you through buying this course nowadays
Since social media is is everything i feel like anything you do you have to be on social media right everybody’s on social media now and i feel like there’s a lot of people out there looking for answers and i feel like i’m your guy the whole thing screams incredibly predatory but it’s kind of a good thing that these courses are really just a complete scam made to benefit the youtubers themselves because if they were to actually work that would mean that we’d have more jake pauls and austin mcbrooms running around in the
World and i don’t think the world needs more of that so high bam courses have titles like how to make money from social media and how to grow your social media platforms and in order to access all of these courses you have to buy the gold membership which is 49.99 a month even though there’s only four courses in the entire platform you have to pay monthly i don’t understand why there’s no continuing education necessarily so let’s look at the intro video on the highbam website to see what austin himself has to say about this
Revolutionary course this is where it all started babe i just realized what might happen pretty soon um i think that there’s gonna be some company that comes out that contact you know all the shady influencers and is like hey we’ll build a get rich quick course for you all you have to do is promote it i swear to god that’s going to happen and a ton of influencers are going to come out with these types of courses prediction but god opened up another door and so we fast forward [Music] the standard get rich quick guru course
That’s like i came from nothing and now look at how rich i am here in my garage just bought this uh new lamborghini here because life is always that simple now this is my home my dream home and i’ve been very blessed and fortunate to have done it through the power of social media which is why i’m here today to teach all of you the secrets to social media and to help you accomplish your dreams in this program i’ll be teaching four courses the first course is how to grow your social media platforms the second course is how to
Make money from social media the third course is how to start a business and the last course is how to grow your business you must join now you only have 24 hours you only have 24 hours gotta sign up in 24 hours sounds legit now you can see why i was so excited to sign up for this however i couldn’t because i guess i missed the enrollment window so i had to wait another month and a half i don’t know what else to say i guess the next time i’ll see you guys we’ll be inside the program at least that video was slightly better
Than a tai lopez video um but both don’t really give you a lot of knowledge knowledge give knowledge besides just uh the same standard format of look at these things i own see i’m an expert in this by my course fans were also reporting that surprise surprise the website highbam’s website wasn’t exactly working and their cards were declined and they were booted from the site when they tried to enroll i made sure that i would be there i sat and watched as that countdown hit zero finger hovering over the mouse and wouldn’t you know it
Nothing happened i couldn’t join the text didn’t change it still told me i needed to follow the timer which was now gone how am i gonna become a millionaire now and that’s when it hit me i just got scammed out of getting scammed since i couldn’t join the program the only recent updates i could find were in a video by a youtuber named sloan and he actually had screenshots from some of his subscribers who did sign up for the program lots of not so surprising details here like the information is not even remotely valuable the videos seem
Rushed none of the live streams were ever done on time and it makes me sad that even with all of that bullshit the fans still want to forgive them and that’s what’s got to be the most fucked up part of all this is that you are specifically targeting your biggest fans you’re taking advantage of the people who trust you the most austin justified this by saying on the highbam instagram that they’re just overwhelmed with so much traffic so much demand to learn the wisdom from austin mcbroom which is what’s causing all of these problems and
If that is true that is really concerning because um i do not think it’s the best idea to buy from a site like this in my opinion these types of sites have and always will be a way for the guru to have a quick cash grab that’s it most of them don’t teach anything new and revolutionary or teach the same thing again and again and again and you can find so much so much valuable information online for free or through trusted educational platforms and sites that have much more legit courses than these so austin has gotten a ton of
Backlash on this course and the shady ways that he’s promoting this course and the fact that he has such a young audience that he’s promoting this type of course to all of it it’s just like why i mean of course you did but why then right after austin launched his get rich quick scheme i mean online course another controversy involving a mcbroom shady business popped off and that is the youtuber versus tick tocker boxing match a few weeks ago there was a big event called social gloves where popular creators on tick tock would box against
Popular creators on youtube some of the biggest names on each platform were chosen to participate there was a lot of hype surrounding the event as the fighters were promoting the event to their millions of followers on social media for a couple of months yet another company of austin’s that wasn’t fulfilling on its promises in june of 2021 austin was accused of scamming participants in the youtuber vs tick tocker boxing match austin decided to get in on the recent phenomenon of social media stars beating each other up
For money which is an interesting phenomenon to me if you want me to cover the whole boxing and social media thing that’s been happening lately and also the business behind it and the massive amount of money that’s being made in these types of things then definitely comment down below and i might do a video on that so austin mcbroom became a boxer in the battle of the platform’s boxing match which was intended to be a massive boxing match of youtubers versus tick-tockers that battle it out for the ultimate prize of one million dollars
Cue the doctor one million dollars now you guys had a bet you’re getting five mil but austin says listen if you win he’s going to give you a million out of his pocket is that best still on yeah put a million dollars up like me all right i’ll do a million dollars just like you do a million dollars yes ladies and gentlemen we just have a million dollar bet y’all got that right you shook my hand bryce hall claimed that he was going to make 5 million and a percentage of pay-per-view austin agreed with that number and said he’d be making the same
I can definitely see the brilliance of these types of boxing matches because most of the social media stars that participate in these are pretty unlikable characters so i think a lot of people can’t resist the opportunity to watch these stars get beaten up in the ring the event had seven fights between youtubers and tick tockers and the headlining match was between austin mcbroom himself and tig talker bryce hall he keeps saying you know if we fight has to be underneath his terms right you know i actually talked to producers yesterday and we’re
Making it to where it’s his terms he’s getting his five million guaranteed five million i probably shouldn’t be saying some of this shit but i’m just gonna say like legit though and who ended up taking home the prize austin mcbroom did i see him [Music] [Applause] he didn’t just win this fight he won a million dollars knocking out bryce oh apparently austin just happened to win the entire thing of course this one million dollar prize wouldn’t be that weird if it wasn’t for the fact that
Austin mcbroom himself allegedly owned the company the production company that put on the entire event who’s behind all this who actually ran the event here’s the trademark registration for social gloves the owner is listed as ace hack collection here is a’s hack collection inks filing and look who the director is it’s austin mcbroom multiple people have reported and austin has yet to deny that austin mcbroom owns social gloves the company that’s behind the battle of the platforms so austin literally quite literally allegedly won one million
Dollars from his own event that’s suspicious that’s weird then on top of that several weeks after the event many influencers and participants in the event came forward to say that austin mcbroom and social gloves has yet to compensate them for the time that they participated in that event i didn’t get fucking paid for the fight you don’t need a crystal ball to see that this is like everything that face family touches a nightmare one of the announcers was like i didn’t get paid but did the fighters not get paid
Nope nobody got paid fighters didn’t get paid artists didn’t get paid no no one got paid so was the adventures run for me yeah i think yeah i think so it looks like i haven’t been paid yet what’s the next day what are your thoughts on us allegedly the guy’s not getting paid josh richards who’s apparently a tick-tocker and podcaster as well as jake paul have both said on separate podcasts that allegedly social gloves is actually going bankrupt because they predicted that the event would have much better reception than it did and they
Predicted they’d be able to sell out a lot more tickets than they actually did they must be saying they’re getting paid because this would be 9.5 sure that they filed for bankruptcy um like two days ago or something i heard there was there was suing involved already billboard actually reported last month that the event was a financial flop and that it lost about 10 million dollars like that is a crazy amount of money and honestly in my opinion i think we’re gonna see social gloves austin’s company file for bankruptcy lost a lot of money on this
Whole event since they had so many stars influencers and even celebrities participating in it i mean you can literally see dj khaled on stage trying to hype up a crowd meanwhile there’s barely anyone in the crowd [Music] and i kind of feel bad for dj khaled watching that whole thing it’s kind of sad but also hilarious austin mcbroom responded to all of these allegations by saying a hundred thousand ppv buys is cap only the haters want to believe that if anything these people who are scamming which isn’t at social gloves are
Basically saying all of us fighters fan bases ain’t shit we all know social gloves put on one of the biggest social media events in history as all of you watched the real numbers will come out soon just know social gloves weren’t the ones who collected ppv numbers purchases don’t forget how you watched it so once again very reminiscent of the whole app scam he’s basically saying it wasn’t us who scammed everybody no we were actually scammed by some other company and that’s why we’re scamming you so the two rumors are social gloves
Bankrupt which is capped it’s false it’s not true everyone that was at the event knows that there’s probably like 20 people there just at the gate alone everybody made three or four million dollars so just that we’re gonna talk about people we’re not talking about we’re not talking about brand deals we’re just talking about at the event so social gloves is not bankrupt at all okay the second thing is saying that fighters did not get paid yes fighters have not got paid yet including myself why is it that a lot of if not all of
Austin’s businesses never seem to work so since filming this video more and more and more lawsuits have come out and austin mcbroom is in even bigger trouble and i am nine months pregnant and exhausted at this point from the confusing mess that is the lawsuits and allegations against austin mcbroom so i thought i would bring on a special guest riley my husband to explain what’s going on here and the additional lawsuits that have happened in recent weeks so here is a breakdown of all of the austin mcbroom lawsuits that we know about currently
Hi welcome to the first debut of what the fuck is happening if you don’t know me i’m madison’s husband in this debut feature we break down what the fuck is happening with awesome academic broom september 2020 subify a website used to create an engaging platform for fans to interact with content creators this website is used to create an engaging platform for fans to interact with content creators such as austin mcbroom this company is what the ace family chose to use for about two months with using this company subify the ace
Family brought in a total of almost two million dollars for the two months of revenue that they made they did not pay simplify a single dime ending up in almost 450 000 dollars that the ace family owed in addition to the ace family not paying subify they left the platform and created their own platform stealing subify’s trade secrets so with that being said 75 filed a lawsuit for one not paying them for two months and a total of 450 000 dollars and two stealing the trade secrets to make the ace website april 2021 a hearing
Construction rental company a company that the ace family used filed a lawsuit against them it is not released yet why they’re suing but my guess is they probably didn’t pay them june 2021 the battle of the platforms austin mcbroom created the ball the platforms to bring on big celebrities and the youtube and tick tock community to fight each other with this awesome mcbroom hired live x live a streaming platform to host the fight and to collect the revenue for the pay-per-view purchases right you’ve got social goals which is the promotion
Company that puts television right that organizer fights and puts you on the event live xlive is a live stream partner in order for an event to take place you need a lifetime partner right everyone thinks that social media did everything no social gloves partnered with live x live who live-streamed it and collected everybody’s money right after the fight was hosted austin mcbroom claims that live x live has not paid them yet therefore austin mcbroom cannot pay the people that attended the fight this resulted in a messy back and
Forth lawsuit war between mcbroom and livex live with the awesome mcbroom initiating this lawsuit so the reason why the flyers haven’t got paid yet because livex live has been holding on to all the fronts they have not paid social levels one penny and that’s why social gloves is suing live x live side note live x live is not the best company livex live is now facing 14 lawsuits concurrently the company also is currently being sued by two former executives and one investor for fraud just a bad move on austin broome’s part
Why would he go into hiring this company for a boxing match openly knowing that they are clearly a shady company going through a lot of legal allegations this article explains that livex live is getting sued by another company that is owed 650 000 this article was written before the social gloves event a missouri data discovery firm hired to help live x live prepare its defense against the 26 million lawsuit is asking a california judge to seize more than six hundred fifty thousand dollars in unpaid legal fees from chief executive
Robert ellen’s streaming app company anyways let’s move on to why livex live is countersuing austin mcbroom livex live is now suing them for 100 million dollars worth of damages as annotated in the lawsuit documents that livex live is suing awesome broom for five different causes involving defamation such as damaging the share price of live x live partially in business practices for example us mcbroom claimed to livex live’s chief marketing officer that we don’t need to do marketing we have six million impressions also make room and
Sgp represented the livex live that their anticipated viewership for the event was 2.2 million paying audience members and that sgp was committed to and confident that it would achieve these ticket sales austin mcgroom’s arrogance was astounding as he failed to honor minimal marketing tasks which sgp was contractually obligated to perform simple tasks such as ensuring that the fighters deliver social media posts with links to purchase tickets when unfulfilled austin mcbroom promised and it is filed that they would make an
Estimated 500 million dollars live x live filed a lawsuit against social gloves also austin mcbroom for not reaching the income capstone promised of nearly 500 million dollars therefore live x live did not pay austin mcbroom a little side note in july when the fight was hosted a car rental company by the name of gc lux car rental claimed through an instagram post that austin mcbroom did not pay them for the cars that he rented totaling in about seven thousand dollars seems like austin mcbroom just doesn’t like paying people
You know like who needs money yeah who needs money for exchange’s services no one apparently everyone just wants quote from him anyways yeah i would love to also make broom clout so back before this whole battle of platforms was created and stuff and social gloves was already a company james harden invested two million dollars into the social gloves company after investing into this company two million dollars which is a lot you know it’s a lot for everybody after investing two million dollars james harden was promised an almost 400
000 profit for the investment after the fight debuted james harden was not paid anything therefore james harden filed a lawsuit against social gloves austin mcbroom for a 2.4 million dollars and is still counting a couple more people filed a lawsuit against social gloves these people were big tick-tockers or tick-tockers tick-tock creators tick-tock content creators two tick-tockers taylor holden and nate wyatt filed a lawsuit against social gloves taylor holder filed a lawsuit against awesome make room over boxing event
Alleges that a tailor was paid 85 000 up front to sign on to the fight and was guaranteed the amount equal or great than 2 million or 2 percent of the adjusted gross revenue of the event austin was bold he was legit offering gross revenue of the event break it down a little more here is just a quick summarized timeline on all of austin mcbroom’s lawsuits there’s probably more out there that we don’t know about but we did our due diligence and i’m honestly tired of this family here’s our timeline september 2020
Subify files a lawsuit against the ace family for not paying them four hundred and twenty thousand dollars april 2021 a heard construction rental company files a lawsuit against the ace family for reasons unknown probably not paying june 12 2021 live x live files a counter lawsuit against social gloves ultimate broom were failing to reach the income capstone after awesome mcbroom sued them for withholding their funds july 10 2021 a small car rental company gc lux claimed through an instagram post no lawsuit yet that we know about
Claimed on an instagram post that the mcbroom family did not pay them for the 7 000 worth of car rentals august 2nd 2021 taylor holden and nate wyatt files a lawsuit against social gloves austin mcbroom for not paying them almost 2.5 million dollars again august 2nd 2021 james harden files a lawsuit against socialglove’s awesome broom for 2.
4 million dollars this will be in the link below if you want to see me more often comment below [Music] and yet still despite all of these business failures despite all of these scams austin mcbroom seems to be still thriving and posting regularly on social media about his lavish and luxurious lifestyle and it’s honestly kind of hard to understand or comprehend the level of wealth that the ace family is living at the ace family has lived in multiple mansions their latest mansion was apparently a nine million dollar mansion
That they combined with another mansion to build one giant mega mansion and on top of that they seem to have multiple new fancy luxurious cars every month if not week and i don’t understand how someone can live to that level and that magnitude of spending to me it just screams not sustainable even if you’re making an insane amount of money i don’t understand how you’re able to continually make such such large purchases if i think about even the richest people i know they might own one or two fancy cars or one nice house but
To that level i don’t know i have to question it personally but that’s just my personal speculation it really makes me wonder is all of this sustainable and well according to recent allegations it might not be anonymous screenshots circulating on twitter those screenshots included alleged court documents showing the house being foreclosed on accounts of missed mortgage payments there was also a screenshot of the ace family’s home listed on zillow labeled as pre-foreclosure images of alleged legal documents were leaked that show that the
Ace family’s la mansion is up for foreclosure after failing to make mortgage and tax payments and fans even found the pre-foreclosed home listed on zillow for seven million four hundred and fifty six thousand and six hundred dollars speaking of the ace family according to leaked documents online they may be allegedly facing foreclosure after missing tax and mortgage payments on their nearly 10 million home and all of this raised massive concerns about the ace family’s financial situation but uh don’t forget to buy austin mcbroom’s
Course on how he became a social media millionaire aka a failing social media millionaire so that you too can become a failing social media millionaire it’s hard to say if the house will actually foreclose and it’s also kind of hard to say definitively whether or not the ace family is financially struggling we don’t know the inner workings of their finances of course regarding the ace family house austin mcgroom recently made a statement claiming that all of the allegations about their housing situation were false now i am not a
Realtor so it’s hard for me to definitively say whether or not the ace family home is for sure getting foreclosed on but it looks like a lot of people who are experts and who are realtors and have access to the database that shows foreclosures have confirmed that the ace family home is a hundred percent up for foreclosure and that austin mcbroom is definitely losing the house at least that’s what it says on this foreclosure database i mean the papers are real so yeah no there’s no question about zack’s brother has he’s
Like a realtor you want to tell the story zach so don’t oh yeah he’s not a realtor yet he’s getting his license he’s almost gonna get it but um you can there’s a back end system for people in real estate to see um title and what you own a house and we verified that he did in fact default but it feels like austin mcbroom is like a circus ringleader or a magician so maybe he’ll be able to pull something out of his hat like a con artist or ponzi scheme to fix this money issue through scamming and creating another money
Issue that he has to fix down the line ultimately it’s all unsustainable and eventually his house of cards will completely crumble so i think really only time will tell we’ll see if the house ends up foreclosing so far austin mcbroom has remnantly denied these claims and said their house is not for closing a lot of these recent business ventures may also be a way to get cash really quickly because it might be needed all i can say is that it wouldn’t be that surprising if the ace family ends up having a ton of money
Troubles we’ve seen time and time again with people that portray this insane rich lavish lifestyle that no matter how much you make you can always spend more than you’re making and get yourself into financial trouble though it seems like people like austin are always able to somehow make things happen and move things around is that a spider oh the downfall of austin mcbroom and in turn the ace family is disheartening because at the end of the day if austin mcbroom did none of these scams in shady businesses he would have still been a
Millionaire with his success on youtube he could have still lived a great and cushy life but instead austin mcbroom wanted more and more he wanted more fame more money and more power and it looks like in the end he’ll end up with nothing but just a giant media circus it’s hard to wish austin any ill will because of his adorable family so i’ll end this video by saying that i just hope he learns and eventually stops doing all of this shady stuff i hope that he legitimately changes and gets involved with legitimate businesses and most
Importantly stops creating the same type of shady businesses and scams over and over and over again you’d think that he’d learn by now after being accused of running a ton of scams but i guess they’ve worked for him so why change anything i wanted to end this video with a little bit of empathy but after a few weeks of editing and looking into more and more of this situation i just feel like i can’t do that i can’t go that easy on austin because the resounding thought that i’ve had through the process of editing this video is that at
The end of the day the people that austin mcbroom screwed over the most are his own children austin’s children are the face of the ace family brand they built that brand they built what it stood for without austin’s children austin himself would be nothing he would have nothing he used his children to build up the ace family quote-unquote empire as he had his children work their entire childhoods the entire timeline of their existence how long they’ve been alive on this earth to build up the brand and now these children will end up
Getting nothing out of it and probably won’t see a dime of the money that they rightfully deserve out of this brand because of the poor decisions that austin mcbroom has made i called it man those kids are not going to see a dime i think well there’s not going to be a dime whatever yeah but you know the ace family this guy’s been scheming for so long and now he’s about to lose everything which he deserves he’s got so many views he’s got so much uh a legitimate money if he wasn’t such a greedy fucking piece of shit
He would be doing great in life so at the end of the day the people he scammed the most are his own children and that aspect makes me upset and makes me feel like austin mcbroom does not deserve an easy pass or a hope for change in the future instead his children deserve something that ensures that they’re able to get what’s rightfully theirs out of this ace family brand but i’ll cover that aspect of family channels a little bit more in part two i hate that spider it’s so tiny and creepy so that’s all for today’s video if you made it this
