Some Guy Snagged $1 Million from Trump Fans with a Fake Dinner Contest

As Politico reports, Ian Hawes, a 25-year-old self-proclaimed "registered genius" who has no affiliation with the Trump campaign, has control of the domain namedinnerwithtrump.org and an affiliated PAC. The project teases a chance to enjoy a meal with the presidential hopeful, and although participants don't have to donate to enter the contest, the website has reportedly fooled over 20,000 donors into ponying up to boost their chances. Hawes has raked in some $1 million in donations—none of which has made it to the Trump campaign. A large tranche of the money has instead found its way into CartSoft LLC, a company Hawes owns, according to the Federal Election Commission (FEC).

"I assumed it was coming from Trump and we donated $1,000 because you might have a better chance [at winning the dinner] than if you'd given $100," David Easlick, a Virginia-based lawyer, told Politico after learning the truth of Hawes's scheme.

They must know the deal, if they thought $1,000 would give them a better chance.

Didn't you read the article? He'll be fine. He had a disclaimer and everything. It's not his fault the alt-righties gave him money and never asked for it back.

Yea, they thought they were donating to Trump U.

How is it fraud?

 

[alpine]

It is just as ( maybe even a tad less ) fraud as Trump himself...

So if you look at it carefully; Trump fans, in fact, supported the idea of "Trump", by donating to this cause...

Fraud was committed and you celebrate it? Folks, It is people like this who support Hillary for President. Not surprising they would support a lying criminal that uses the dirtiest tactics to win an election.

And you complain about corruption...
Well, it is corrupt,
