1
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So I think the title of this article

2
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
pretty much sums up what we're
gonna be talking about today.

3
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Pastor accused of three
million dollar crypto scam

4
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
says he may have misheard God.

5
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Oh...

6
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
No, man, what makes you say that?

7
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What makes you think that
God wouldn't want you to

8
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
do a rug pull on your congregation?

9
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's crazy.

10
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This story's been in the news
the past couple weeks,

11
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm only a little bit
familiar with the details,

12
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so I had my

13
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(rock music) elite team of
content supervisors,

14
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
uh, which is just one guy,
his name is Robert,

15
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
go through, and
(music stops) find me

16
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
all of the necessary information

17
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so I can fully understand this story

18
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and relay it to you.

19
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Everybody say, "thank you Robert."
(sparkling sound)

20
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(wholesome music)

21
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now everybody say, "thank you Danny."
(sparkling sound)

22
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(wholesome music continues)

23
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now everybody say, "love you Danny?"
(distorted sparkling sound)

24
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(music stops)
And now let's get into it.

25
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
An online pastor was
charged with civil fraud

26
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
for selling a cryptocurrency
that regulators described as

27
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"practically worthless."

28
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
His explanation: God told him to do it,

29
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
although it's possible
(laughing) he misheard.

30
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's interesting that he's
only saying that

31
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
he MIGHT'VE misheard

32
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
now that he's being called out for it.

33
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He got caught, and now he's like,

34
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Well yeah, I might've misheard him."

35
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Something tells me in the
initial stages of this scheme

36
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
he wasn't going around
telling people, like,

37
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Now I might've misheard God,

38
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but I'm pretty sure he wants
you to buy this cryptocurrency.

39
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
God's been really into
the blockchain lately

40
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He thinks it's the future."

41
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I like that the regulators described
it as

42
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"practically worthless."

43
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's not completely worthless.

44
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But it's-- it's pretty much worthless.

45
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(chill jaunty music)
Eh, it's kinda fun to buy, I guess.

46
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You know, it's fun to get
involved in a little project,

47
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
setting up your crypto
wallet and everything,

48
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but for all intents and purposes

49
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
this will make you broke.

50
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This is a horrible decision to buy.

51
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
LITTLE fun though.

52
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Colorado securities commissioner
filed a legal complaint

53
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
against... Eligio.

54
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Eliggy-o.

55
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(mispronouncing, which he will do
for most of the video) Regaldo.

56
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Eligio Regaldo.

57
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Who goes by Eli--

58
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Oh thank God.

59
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and his wife, Kaitlyn Regaldo, last week.

60
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The couple raised nearly
3.2 million dollars

61
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
by targeting Denver's Christian
community with the cryptocurrency,

62
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
marked as INDXcoin, the complaint said.

63
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Sorry, you're not even gonna
give it a Christian name?

64
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
IND-- Index?

65
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Indix?

66
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(shocked sound) In-dicks?

67
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You put these crypto coins in dicks?

68
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Shoulda called it God Coin or something.

69
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Something creative.

70
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Tithe Coin, maybe? I don't know.

71
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Investigators accused
the couple of violating

72
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Colorado's anti-fraud licensing
and registration laws.

73
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They alleged the cryptocurrency
was promoted as

74
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
low risk, high profit investment,

75
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
while it was actually illiquid
and practically useless.

76
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Well, hold on now. Maybe he didn't say
who it was high profit for.

77
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It WAS high profit, it was just for him.

78
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Wait, high profit...

79
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Are you sure he didn't mean

80
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
high PROPHET?
(angelic choir)

81
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Jake, on the screen, can
you spell "prophet" with a PH?

82
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Like the Biblical type of prophet?

83
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And then you can also keep
me explaining this part of the joke in.

84
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That way if anyone's listening
to this and not watching

85
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they can still get the joke that I made.

86
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Thank you.

87
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(angelic choir)

88
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Look, I said it was a
low-risk investment,

89
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I am a high prophet!

90
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I was high when I heard this from God,

91
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that's why I might've misheard him."

92
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Cryptocurrency is usually able
to be converted into cash

93
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
or other currencies through a digital
platform or trading exchange.

94
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The Lord said:

95
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(distorted deep voice)
"I want you to build this,"

96
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Regaldo said.

97
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We took God at his word and sold
a cryptocurrency with no clear exit.

98
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
From this quote, like,
if this is an exact quote

99
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm having trouble seeing how
you might've misheard him.

100
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He seems completely clear.

101
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He either said, "I want you
to build this cryptocurrency"

102
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
or "love thy neighbor,"

103
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I can't remember exactly which one it was.

104
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It was one of those two, though.

105
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Again, I'm SUPER high.
(The Next Episode plays in background)

106
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Then he says, "We took God at his word

107
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and sold a cryptocurrency
with no clear exit."

108
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now it sounds like
he's calling God a liar.

109
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Look, I'll say it guys, it's our fault.

110
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Our fault we trusted God."

111
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We allege that Mr. Regalado took advantage

112
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
of the trust and faith of
his own Christian community

113
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and that he peddled outlandish
promises of wealth to them

114
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
when he sold them essentially
worthless cryptocurrencies.

115
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I don't think I've ever been to church

116
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and my pastor started preaching about

117
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(club music, ka-ching sound)
outlandish promises of wealth.

118
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I feel like if your pastor
starts saying stuff like that

119
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
there's definitely a problem.

120
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That being said,

121
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Uh, the pastor totally abused
his privilege and his trust

122
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that his congregation had in him.

123
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's insane.

124
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This is someone that's supposed to be
like a spiritual guide to these people,

125
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and you know what, to be fair

126
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they might be praying a lot more
after this has happened to them.

127
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But I don't...

128
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Still don't really think it was right.

129
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The couple sold the digital asset
to more than three hundred investors

130
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
between June 2022 and April 2023.

131
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Three hundred investors...

132
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And made three million dollars?

133
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Wait, what? How does that add up?

134
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
How much were these
people investing, dude?

135
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Three million divided by three hundred.

136
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So on average, members
of his congregation spent

137
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
ten thousand dollars on this?

138
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They got three hundred
people to spend on average

139
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
ten thousand dollars
on this cryptocurrency.

140
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Dude, that's insane!

141
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Oh my god, that's messed up.

142
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I hate to say it, man.

143
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I think he misheard God.
(depressed sound effect)

144
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Either I misheard God,
and every one of you

145
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
who prayed and came in, you as well.

146
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
No, wait. Hold on.

147
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
THEY didn't mishear anything.

148
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They heard YOU.

149
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He's saying,

150
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Either I misheard God
and so did all of you--

151
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I mean, we all did, right?"

152
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They're all like,

153
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"No, YOU said it.

154
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We heard YOU.

155
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
YOU were supposed to
be telling us what he said."

156
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Or two, God is still not
done with this project.

157
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Uh, I unfortunately am.

158
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I have already sold all my cryptocurrency

159
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and yours is now worthless,

160
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but, y'know, you guys might still
have something going on,

161
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I don't really know.

162
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm not involved anymore.

163
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Okay, now it looks like
we've got some kind of

164
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
video apology maybe?

165
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I think this is the pastor here.

166
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So this update is to really just
take some things head on,

167
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm not reading from a script

168
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I didn't prepare
any notes like I normally do.

169
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Yeah, you should 100% be
reading from a script, dude.

170
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You really fucked up.

171
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You should've written something
down. Do not freestyle this, man.

172
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Also, you know.

173
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Beautiful house behind
him. Beautiful view.

174
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I-- actually, I can't
tell if this is real.

175
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Is he green screened into
this or is this his real house?

176
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It kinda looks like it
might be green screen

177
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I'm wondering, like,

178
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is his house even nicer than this?

179
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Like this is what he green
screened himself into

180
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
to make it seem like he's
not living a lavish lifestyle.

181
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What does his actual house look like?

182
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's just Heaven.

183
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(angelic choir)

184
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Kaitlyn and I are being
charged in a civil charge

185
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
for basically selling millions of
dollars worth of cryptocurrency

186
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that is deemed
worthless by the state.

187
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I think it's probably also
being deemed worthless by

188
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
like, the value of the cryptocurrency.

189
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm assuming that this guy, like,

190
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
made all of his followers
buy it, and then he sold it

191
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so that it's now completely worthless.

192
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So I would have to guess
that it's not just the

193
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
regulator's opinion.

194
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
There's like an objective
value to cryptocurrency.

195
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Any cryptocurrency, you can
look at what the value is.

196
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's not like it's subjective.

197
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's not like they're telling you

198
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
your hairstyle is worthless or something.
(sad piano music)

199
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That would be messed up.

200
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
There is no exit for people who bought.

201
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So everyone that's watching this
who has put money into this,

202
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
who wanted to take money out,
you've been unable to do that.

203
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
How did HE exit then?

204
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I don't know how
cryptocurrency enough works

205
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
to give a detailed analysis of this,

206
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but how did HE make money from it, then?

207
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
If no one else can sell it?

208
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I guess he figured out some way.

209
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The charges are that Kaitlyn and
I pocketed 1.3 million dollars

210
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I just wanna come out and
say that those charges

211
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
are true.

212
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(Danny laughs)

213
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So there's been 1.3 million dollars
that's been taken out of, I think

214
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
it was a total of 3.4 million.

215
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So you exited!

216
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So what is all this about "no exit?"

217
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
There's no exit.

218
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You just said you sold it!

219
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You exited!

220
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Tell everyone else how to do that!

221
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I hope that, um, in this video

222
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm not coming across as like
bashing Christianity or anything.

223
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I think that his congregation was
totally swindled by this guy.

224
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This could've happened
in any religion, probably.

225
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This guy is just a con artist.

226
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So how this whole thing started

227
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is the Lord told us,
in '21, to walk away

228
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
from our marketing company,

229
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and then he took us
into this cryptocurrency.

230
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Well, that cryptocurrency
turned out to be a scam.

231
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's so crazy to, uh, describe
something that YOU made

232
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"turning out to be a scam."

233
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Like, "We had no idea."

234
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He's describing the
cryptocurrency as having, like,

235
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
a mind of its own.

236
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"It double crossed us,
this-- this dirty coin."

237
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's like, YOU made it.

238
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's like painting a picture of the moon

239
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and then being like, uh,

240
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"The picture turned out to be a moon!

241
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We didn't realize it until we were done.

242
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I was looking at the
moon, I was painting it,

243
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and all of a sudden the picture
turned out to be a moon!"

244
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So the people who bought
this, who are already basically

245
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
4Xed leveraged on this,

246
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and so the Lord says, "Give that to 'em,

247
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but also give them a 10X."

248
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And I'm like, "Well, where is
this liquidity gonna come from?"

249
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and the Lord says, "Trust me."

250
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Sorry, was he in like a business
conference room with God?

251
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Usually when you hear, like, the kind of

252
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"wealth televangelist"
pastors talk about it,

253
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
even they're not having, like,
these in-depth conversations.

254
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They're just getting,
like, signs and stuff.

255
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This guy was writing code with God.

256
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Which makes the claim
that you "misheard" even wilder,

257
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
cause it's like,

258
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
you had this multi-day
long development process,

259
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
you were getting instructions
the entire time,

260
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and now you're like,

261
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Well, eh, I guess I misheard all of them.

262
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They were all wrong.

263
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He was just talking about, he was just...

264
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
just said I should go on vacation.

265
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Dammit."

266
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So we have the records to prove all this.

267
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And then as we're sowing all this money--

268
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Why is he saying he
sowed all of the money?

269
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We're sowing all this money--

270
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Is that, like, to avoid
using the word "stole?"

271
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Yeah, you know, your actions
have consequences, man.

272
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You reap what you sow.

273
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You walk into a jewelry store,

274
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
you hold up a gun,

275
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You sort of sow chaos in the store

276
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and then you reap the diamonds."

277
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And so we sowed a
hundred thousand of that.

278
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And then from that point forward,

279
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
things really started
escalating and just continued.

280
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Basically all I'm getting from this video

281
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is he's, like, completely
admitting to everything

282
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and his excuse, of course,
is that God made him do it

283
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
or told him to do it.

284
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But at the end of the
day, he is just, like,

285
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Guys, I've been accused of a crime,

286
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so let me just defend
myself by saying, uh,

287
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(evil battle music)
here's how I committed the crime,

288
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I did do it.

289
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(music stops)
There was a little old lady

290
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
walking down the street,

291
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so I did walk up to her,
and in my defense,

292
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(music starts)
I did push her down and take her bag.

293
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(music stops)
Now, that seems ugly,

294
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but let me be clear

295
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(music starts)
that I did also shoot her in the knees.

296
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Okay, so now we've
got a LinkedIn profile

297
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
for this company, INDXcoin.

298
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999

the metaverse, DeFi, and ETFs,

303
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
without becoming an
overnight crypto expert.

304
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Okay, but to be clear,
we're NOT participating

305
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in any of these, right?

306
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's just INDXcoin?

307
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(fun dance music)
You get to participate in Bitcoin,

308
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
NFTs, the metaverse,

309
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
without having to
participate in all of that

310
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(booing sounds)
Bitcoin, NFTs, the metaverse.

311
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Damn, there are no jobs
available at INDXcoin right now.

312
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That sucks.

313
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I was gonna apply, I hear
the salary's really good.

314
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And then here are the two scammers listed

315
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
as the two only employees.

316
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The wife, her bio is "Jesus,
family, and business!"

317
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and the husband's is,

318
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Jesus, PEOPLE, and business."

319
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Dude, if I was his wife, I'd be
so pissed off about that bio.

320
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(ominous battle music)
"Who's people? Am I people?

321
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You just love everybody the same, huh?

322
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Everybody's people?

323
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Where am I on the list?

324
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Where am I?"

325
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(music stops)
And they've also got a website.

326
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
indxcoin.com.

327
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's crazy that all of this is still...

328
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
up and running.

329
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Like, he's being investigated for it,

330
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
he actively admitted that
it turned out to be a scam,

331
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
against his own will.

332
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But the website's still up.
Can I still buy INDXcoin?

333
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(triumphant fanfare)
Oh, buy now!

334
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Oh, okay. You can't buy it anymore.

335
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Proofed by Hacken?

336
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What does that mean?

337
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Is this who made it? Hacken?

338
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You cannot buy a cryptocurrency

339
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(laughs) made by a
company called Hacken.

340
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Yeah, we're called Hacken cause we're
gonna hack into your computer

341
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and steal all your information.

342
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You should've known, it was in the name.

343
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We named our company

344
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We're Gonna Hack You.

345
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
A coin that will transform the
world and you along with it.

346
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Join a community. Access courses.

347
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Enjoy content. And create wealth.

348
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I gotta say, there's no, like,

349
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
religious messaging in this
website anywhere

350
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that I can find.

351
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Let me see if I can
control F God real quick.

352
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(error sound)
No.

353
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
No God or Jesus anywhere
on this website.

354
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You could at least credit the
guy that came up with it, dude.

355
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Dang.

356
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Okay, this video's called,
"INDXcoin Update"

357
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
from June of 2023.

358
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So this seems to be while
the scam was going on.

359
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He's giving a little update, let's see.

360
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Good morning INDXcoin,
good evening INDXcoin

361
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
wherever you guys are calling in from--

362
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Where are YOU calling in from?

363
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Just out of curiosity.

364
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You're in front of a green screen again.

365
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Does he have like, an actual church,

366
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
or is it like an online-only church

367
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and he's always in
front of a green screen?

368
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Cause I know those do exist, too.

369
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Show us your house, man.

370
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Maybe this is before
he stole all that money.

371
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He really did have to use
the green screen back then

372
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
cause his house was small.

373
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now he has to use it to
make his house look small.

374
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Is he using the green
screen cause he's, like,

375
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
already on the run from something else?

376
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Some previous con?

377
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Don't mind the green
screen behind me, guys,

378
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I actually am in the
Witness Protection Program.

379
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
A lot people wanna find me

380
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and a lot of people wanna hurt me.

381
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Heh heh.

382
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I have torn multiple families apart."

383
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Wherever you guys are calling in from,

384
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
good morning, good afternoon,

385
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and uh, goodnight.

386
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He just goes to sleep.

387
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Good morning, good afternoon,

388
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and, uh,

389
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
fuck it! Goodnight."

390
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(Brahm's Lullabye plays, snoring sound)

391
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
For us, we've been look at this,

392
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
we've been building out
INDXcoin, getting ready,

393
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
uh, we got our license which
everyone thought was impossible--

394
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They got their cryptocurrency
selling license, which nobody

395
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
thought they could do.

396
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Why do I not believe that?

397
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Feel like that that's super easy to do.

398
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Countless influencers have started
cryptocurrencies, dude,

399
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I don't think it's that hard.

400
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We're waiting for liquidity,
we're waiting for people

401
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
to basically come in and buy,

402
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so that people can kinda
come out and uh, sell.

403
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Uh, everyone's gonna get
rich, that's what he's saying.

404
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And right now he's saying,

405
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"All these people have bought in,

406
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
we're just waiting for
MORE people to buy,

407
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that way you guys can all sell.

408
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(carefree music)
And me too. We're all gonna sell

409
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
once more people buy."

410
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So it's kinda sounding like

411
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
he might not have even
anticipated this being a rug pull

412
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that only benefitted him.

413
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He might've been TRYING

414
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
to make a Ponzi scheme.
(police sirens)

415
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You know, where the
first people make profit

416
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because you give them
the next people's money,

417
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and it just keeps going like that,

418
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and of course eventually
you're gonna run out of people.

419
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And money.

420
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But for a while it works.

421
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(laughing) But it sounds like--

422
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
it-- the coin was so fucked up

423
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that it-- he couldn't even do like,

424
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
one round of Ponzi.

425
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He just, like, took everybody's money
and then nobody could get out

426
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and he was like, "Shit,
I gotta get outta here."

427
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So maybe he did intend
for SOME people to make money

428
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
off of this, I don't know.

429
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This is John 6 verse 1 through 5,

430
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
it says, "After these things, Jesus
went away to the other side of the sea

431
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
of Galilee or Tiberius--"

432
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Yeah, I'm gonna be honest, this
has nothing to do with cryptocurrency.

433
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I hate to say it, I don't think the
people who wrote this part of the Bible

434
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
even knew what INDXcoin was, dawg.

435
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Okay, so it looks like the
latest update to this story

436
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
was January 31st.

437
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Pastor charged with stealing millions
seen in Zambia after missing hearing.

438
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Seen in Zambia??

439
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What is he, Bigfoot?

440
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Oh, there he goes, oh, he's gone!

441
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Dammit, we still can't catch him!"

442
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So he flew to Zambia so
he didn't have to go to court?

443
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Denver pastor Eli Regalado,
facing civil fraud charges

444
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
for allegedly selling millions in
a bogus cryptocurrency scheme,

445
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
was seen in Zambia teaching
about God and finance--

446
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Probably mostly finance.

447
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
--at the Gifted Faith Ministry in
the company's capital after

448
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
missing a court hearing on Monday.

449
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Regalado's appearance at the
church's Glory Shift Conference

450
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
on multiple days this week
comes after he missed

451
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
a Monday court hearing, where a
preliminary injunction and asset freeze

452
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
were granted after he was
accused of exploiting

453
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
his religious influence
to defraud investors.

454
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Oh yeah, here he is.

455
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Wearing the gray hoodie, Pastor Eli visits

456
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
a church conference in Zambia after
missing a court hearing in Colorado.

457
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Man, he got outta there fast.

458
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Everyone in this picture, you
gotta run away from this guy, dude.

459
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(fast-paced action music)
He's gonna steal all of your money.

460
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Alright, well, it seems like for now
that's where that story has ended.

461
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I hope you guys enjoyed this video,

462
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I'll see you guys next time.

463
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Uh-buh-bye.
