Default Whatnot bans Blake Martinez

It has to be especially egregious if scammer’s paradise Whatnot bans you from their community.

Never been on whatnot
Thought it was odd the story I read earlier in the year quoted 9mm after quitting last year. I know little about pokemon but seemed like a crazy number.
And whoever that 'snee' is in the article can anyone tell me what the move is at the end when all the cards are just thrown around? Very classy op.

SMH made millions in the NFL but decided to run a scamming business. Guy seemed to be a straight lace guy. Disappointed to see him likely be a scamming scum bucket.

Wow, talk about here today, gone tomorrow. It felt like every time I signed on to Twitter, I mean X, that this story was being pushed by another hobby account that just steals from one another.

This is why we can't have nice things.

I am shocked that anyone that does pack rips and gambling on whatnot would ever try to scam anyone. This must be the first time anyone was ever scammed on that platform or in breaking in general.

Wasn't he also joining Fanatics live?
If Fanatics or another site pickups the account, it will be interesting if we see a similar "we were leaving anyways" spin, like what happened when eBay booted PWCC.

I loved Blake Martinez as a player, but maybe he and Evan Mathis can start up a program together as former NFL players disgraced in the card hobby industry now

Story I read today is he had a 'tearful video' and multiple references to 'optics'.

Due to the apparent volume of breaks, could there be a class action? When 'optics' keeps being thrown around, not a denial.

Been following it on Reddit. Looks like there is a massive wave of refund requests hitting WhatNot. People asking for thousands and ten of thousand of dollars back in refunds.

This is just beginning for them.

Will NFL take any disciplinary action?

Maybe not since it’s not domestic violence or smoking weed

Obese Superman says stay tuned…

I don't know of this situation, and am not involved with anything Whatnot, but from everything I've seen with what people wrongfully get away with there, this must have been really egregious for even the cesspool of whatnot to put their foot down. I've sent complaints to that platform for previous scams I've seen done unto others there.

The Giants dumped him before last season began. He spent time on the Raiders practice squad, before retiring.
