A new class action lawsuit filed by an investor in Trumpworlds favorite Lets Go Brandon meme coin claims that some of the tokens key players orchestrated a pump-and-dump scheme.
The news marks the latest bit of drama that has plagued the coin since its inception last year and which has persisted since the cryptocurrency relaunched in February. A number of former President Donald Trumps most loyal fans bought into the crypto hype, only to see the value of their investments plummet.
Attorneys for the plaintiff, an investor in the coin named Eric De Ford, claimed that the tokens executives and insiders made false or misleading statements and disguised their control over the [c]ompany. Ultimately, the 79-page suit filed in Florida alleges, those insiders cynically marketed the LGB Tokens to investors so that they could sell off their portion
for a profit, even as the selloff caused the value of the coin to drop precipitously for the remaining crypto holders.
The defendants included the Trumpy hedge funder James Koutoulas, NASCAR, and conservative media personalities Candace Owens and David Harris Jr., among others.

There's an old adage about lying down with dogs and getting fleas that holds here. Do business with a known con artist, and you're gonna lose your money.
