I doubt if she had much to do with the scam. It was probably some grifting conmen that came sidling up with, "hey, here's a great idea!" and she's like, "sure, sounds awesome, I'm in!" and then they rob her and everyone else blind.
There is a model where celebrities endorse shitcoins for a set amount of real money (U.S. Dollars). Trump endorsed some shitcoin before the election, was paid for it, but it was only available in Europe. She definitely made money from it, if not from people pumping the value or from an endorsement fee. If it was just an endorsement, they can't pin for anything.
Right and that money still has to be taken from her to make sure she doesn't do it again. Whether the victims are rubes or not. You always confiscate the proceeds of illegal activity and refund the victims when you can. Even when they left their car door open.
Oh I don't doubt that she made some money, but I doubt that she had the knowledge to orchestrate the con.
No fucking way. She doesn't even know how to make her morning coffee. She was approached by people who knew exactly what they were doing and going to do. She isn't named in the complaint because the lawyers know better. At most she'll be deposed for what she does know, but that's it.
