Mee6's $3,000,000 Discord NFT Scam!

- Mee6 completely screwed over it's NFT holders by soft/slow rugging the project.
Now to understand the whole Discord NFT fiasco with Mee6, you need to go back to the start of it all January 2022. NFTs and crypto was the craze and everyone and their dog was hopping on the trend. Mee6 was no different, looking to get as much money as possible from it's Discord users (and fanbase as Discord's top bot) through an NFT sale.
This NFT promised a lot, mee6 tokens, premium features, exclusive chats and groups. But does this value stay forever or does it fade away after each slow failure of the project. Delays after delays, empty promises after empty promises. At what point do people stop and think "is Mee6 trying to take our money and scam us?" And I hope that this video makes this clear.
I also edited this bad boy for like 18 hours straight and pulled an all nighter so forgive any mistakes. I wanted to get as much info out there as possible as soon as possible so people don't lose more and more money.

NFTs are basically like digital collectibles, they suck because they're expensive and you get nothing physically from them.
Greed is an evil thing. If they’d have just stayed in their lane and continued being one of the top Discord bots they could’ve continued raking in a continuous stream of money. What a shame.

Honestly if people still invest in NFTs in this day and age, they aren't getting scammed they are getting exactly what they paid for
I have no problem with nfts as a concept
Verifiable ownership in the digital space is a useful thing. But these scams are just so damn obvious I don't get how people fall for it these collectibles are just stupid. At least the actual artists are getting a lot more for their art as nfts.
Which is nothing

as someone that use to volunteer for mee6's support team back in the old days, it's sad to see this happen. they've changed :(
you were never to the core of it, and that might be a good thing for you
and you did it for free!
with all these NFT scams happening month after month for actual years now, you'd think people wouldn't be dumb enough to invest in dumb shit, especially from an already suspicious group. Makes me think the people falling for these scams shouldn't get any sympathy
im surprised people still think nfts are good anymore since nearly every big nft project is a scam
My sympathy for victims of NFT scams diminishes by the day. Every single time, the same thing happens! And even when the project is legit, the price collapses after the fad dies out because they're assets with no real value! The best hopes of NFT gamblers is that they will manage to trick a bigger fool into buying their tokens before that happens. They're either too gullible or scammers themselves.
@@wparkerunc Nearly? The entire concept and practise of any NFTs are a scam
A lot of 'problems' they were trying to solve with NFT (proof of ownership) just did not work. It really didn't help that anyone could claim whatever they want then advertise their self created NFT.
The first couple NFT scams I felt bad for, they were promised a lot and I can KINDA see how they fell for it (I wouldn't but I can see how others would). But now that there's been so many of these scams outted publicly, it is 100% the fault of the investors, if you aren't doing your research before investing in a project like this, then you can't blame anyone else. You wouldn't trust a random person irl trying to sell you a project like this, so why trust random people online. You like the discord bot, cool, I love the Wendy's Baconator, I'm not gunna invest in a project just cause they slap Baconator on the name though.

I used to use Mee6, but since they started nft i stopped using it

Honestly, when all this settles down and Mee6 is (hopefully) shut down and the founders (hopefully) held criminally liable for all the shit they've done, it'll be funny to look back and see all the times when they could have - and should have - been stopped by Discord cracking down on their TOS violations. On some level, we owe Discord a thank-you for allowing these idiots to keep going and run themselves into trouble with a community of people with more money than sense, meaning they're almost guaranteed to be sued.
they didnt break any laws they ran an obvious nft cash grab and people were stupid enough to buy it, probably just realized how irrelevant discord is getting
@@user-tg9qf2mt5b This cash grab you mentioned is called a "scam", meaning they are breaking the law
Okay, when are we going to start taking action against Mee6 on our own as a community? Discord won't fix this issue, so it leaves us no choice other than to do whatever we can within reason to get Mee6 off the platform.
Other than removing them from servers, not much else. If you were impacted by Mee6's rug pull though, you can find a lawyer and sue the corporation.
Apart from a mass boycott of their services or public backlash, I don’t think much will work.
The Mee6 saga never ends!

It just keeps going and

Truly one of the DBZ sagas
Forget DBZ this is one piece
It's more of a franchise at this point
"We want to make sure everyone can get on board" is such a bad excuse because the whole point of limiting supply is so that there's more people who want it than can get it.
They really pulled the "Everybody criticizing us are haters that were never actually affected just trying to get mad at something" card, they could not care less about being subtle.
"We're lowering the price to 0.18 ETH" Jesus that's almost 300 dollars
Damn, NTTS is out here absolutely destroying Mee6. You're the Coffeezilla of the Discord community.

4:23 A Dutch auction will typically have a cheaper price than an English action (a normal auction) and exploits FOMO less. With an English auction you can get into bidding wars where people who don't want to miss out keep bidding higher and higher. With a Dutch auction you find the lowest price that everyone is willing to pay in order for you to sell out without anyone else at that price point. There is no extra bidding to drive the price up.
Except blind auctions are possible on-chain (using S[N/T]ARKs), so there's no real reason not to use a Vickrey auction.
@@pandapip1 One reason would be an increase in gas prices.
I mean yeah, it isn't a usual bidding war but either way it builds fear of others getting what you want. With a Dutch auction, it sounds like you have zero idea whether somebody will actually "outbid" you (in the sense of paying a higher price than you would), thus leading to more risky decisions because you have less information and might want to make absolutely sure nobody takes you off guard by buying it before you can. Correct me if i'm wrong though.
@@somekinnn You just pay what you think it's worth. If more too many people value it more than you than you won't get it.
@@somekinnn Bidding wars increase your spending by only a little at a time, making it easy to accidentally spend hundreds of dollars more than you wanted to because it happened in little steps of 10. Dutch auctions are still fallible, but definitely less so than English ones.
Wonderful work! I would have loved some date of reference of the speeches you cut in, but sick research anyway
I honestly was wanting to do a bit more with the AMA parts but I legit uploaded this a minute before it got released (to hit my normal schedule)
@NoTextToSpeech damn, that was some hard research then
@@NoTextToSpeech do you think mee6 will ever be deleted
@@razorwolf2758 the response he may give:
no.
(11:00) Why are they not using the Hammertime function in Discord? This will format the date and time not only according to the user's locale (so 12 or 24 hour time) but also adapts to the user's timezone. If you type "2pm EST" manually, you have both failed to provide a high quality message, but also "EST" is such a vague term.
Probably just an oversight.
Everytime a big company/person launches a NFT project i always assume its a cash grab
99% - 100% of the time it is
Better yet, money laundering.
NFTs are actually good because they made money laundering so easy.
There is no other good reason anyone would do otherwise.
Oh no, who would have though that a NFT project is a scam... This is definitely the first time this has happen.
Wow! Amazing work, NTTS! I can't even imagine having to listen to their AMAs.
Thank you for bringing this to the attention of so many discord users. I know its not much but I will be switching from Mee6 to Polaris. And I will urge others to do the same.
What I want to know is what they were even promising with their nfts. They couldn't be trying to sell nfts based exclusively on their name as a discord bot right? Right?
Wrong. MEE6 Devs are REAAAAL assholes.
Wow I’m impressed this video is right up coffezilla’s street. And you did a wonderful job doing something outside of your regular format. Good Job
At this time, they don't deserve failure anymore. They deserve jail time
When i heard the word "scammed nfts" ngl i had an laugh attack.
As if nfts weren't scams already.
But damn that's rough.
With how this Mee6 saga is going, I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled something like stealing all the user's tokens in every server the bot is in.
Wouldn’t be suprised if they already did it
@@razorwolf2758 I don't know if that is possible
@@Azaelris you’d be surprised with the amount of things coders can do, especially with how many vulnerabilities discord has
@@-medicine Well the actual cookies that hold login data aren't really accessible.Any bot privileges need to be listed out.
as a guy who doesn't know any vulnerabilities ceronero knows, the only way I can see MEE6 getting tokens is through scam links
when you see any trusted bot get hacked, you dont get your token stolen, you get DMd a scam link
as jesse once said from breaking bad, "they can't keep getting away with this!"
Its time we go straight to the problem, DISCORD. Lets push them until they have no choice but to delete m6 from the platform.
Mee6 is already pushing their discord protection to the limit
I am not a lawyer but I do have some understanding of the law and I strongly believe this will involve legal matters.
Also thank you for doing this video since I posted it on my Twitter and I'm sharing it with some of my friends to get the word out to them.
I don't use this MEE6 because frankly I never really trusted them and from what I have read they're not as good as they claim to be. But I do know others who I've been on their discord do use it and they should really reconsider using them at all.

People who buy NFTs _almost_ deserve to get scammed.
nobody truly deserves to get scammed but it doesn’t take many brain cells to realize nfts are dumb as hell
I don't understand why people think NFT = scam. NFTs are investment. Usually a bad one, but investment nonetheless. Wishing anyone who invests into something to get scammed is not a good thing.

great vid that explains some more mee6 controversy! but which better discord plugin did you use you unhide the channels?
what was the engagement in the community like in their discord and on team related posts on socials like before the mint? there’s no way only ~600 unique wallets were actually interested (minted an nft) and the relative lower levels of engagement weren’t picked up on by multiple people
I don't even use Discord anymore, this is just fascinating to see this all play out with Mee6
At this point they know they can do what ever.
Even if they get sued, they will have to pay a small amount and then they are free.
That's what I was thinking
Imagine if Someone sues them For More tuen they have, probably will not happen but if someone say the funni beast man did, then mee6 would Prob is die
@@just-a-fnf-fan they wont get sued for that amount. as NFT are a good scam
So far I have not heard of an nft project that didn't fail or wasn't a scam, yet people still buy into it
The ones that don't fail didn't oversell what people would get, and often has everything built before the sale meaning benefits were automatically found.
Ens for example is nfts that act as routing ids to make easier to use addresses.
Some are purely for art, I know some were made by artists and they would give holders early insight into what they were working on etc.
But the reason you don't hear about em all as much is because they don't go extreme hype like the scams the scams are designed to get attention. That's why ive gone by the general rule "if everyone is talking about it its probably not that great" of course there's exceptions like ens but you get the idea.
I will definitely be looking at what functions I have Meee6 set up to do, and see what I will have to do to migrate these functions to another bot.
If I knew the Meee6 leadership was this corrupt, I would have ditched the bot a long time ago.
“We know how to build products fast.”
Yeah, and spend money too 😂😂
You're going into CoffeeZilla territory, and you're doing it well!
(In terms of content and style, what with the crypto scam investigating)
How can I trust you guys?
Mee6: Yeah
it is SOOO good to see everyone in this video going under
They only burned the rest of the supply because a bunch of people were screaming about it to ensure value stays high or whatever for those that purchased.
NTTS really goes balls deep for Mee6 controversies, legend
Technically, the thing with the NFT sale being over for good and then coming back a week later breaks the law in a few areas. Australia in particular comes to mind, with the ACCC rules for advertising specifically highlighting this.
We need a No Text to Speech and coffeezilla team up!
This scam technology I voluntarily invested in scammed me? Holy fuck!
seeing that version of the world in your pfp again after so long feels really weird
happy that people are bringing light to the mee6 scams
I dont know anything but is Mee6 something that you buy for your server?? Because I had mee6 since Aug 31 2020 and it was free??? It wasnt something big personally but people liked it due to the levelling features which heightened their activeness to the server. I dont know whats going on anymore since Ive been way too busy and did not even bother to know whats going on around me
What’s really sad is 3 million probably isn’t enough to secure financial stability for all the people that worked on the scam (inflation, taxes, bills, etc), so it was completely pointless.
Dude, if you're a bit frugal, you can retire with half a million. Unless they are completely incompetent managing their money, 3 mil is a lot.
@@tucoramirez9557 Theres a lotta people involved that don't seem past their mid 30s. Half a mil for 30 years seems like a bit of a stretch
They basically screwed up a bunch of things, didn't have a coherent plan, sold an ERC-1155 (more like a token) instead of a ERC-721 (serialized) where the 721 would be later airdropped. I think they canned this partway through or something because they realized the gas costs for airdropping that many 721s would've eaten away at their revenue quite a lot lol.
There was a slight bug that allowed anyone to "mint for free", but they would receive no NFT, despite it _looking_ like they had received one, which a bunch of people freaked out about.
Then there was something else that happened (maybe not NFT related? I can't remember now.) where they lied about something that happened, some security flaw or whatever & blamed others then later admitted it was their fault lol.
I actually know a person who was (and maybe) is the graphic designer of MEE6, really wandering if they still work there.
Thanks NTTS for inform us. That why I love NTTS video.
We need Coffeezilla on their back
I think you could public the all speeches on a long unlisted video for all the ppl that are curious abt them.

mee6 sucks anyway bleh
MEE7!!!!
wtf mee7 exists?
hopefully you don't scam people >:(
They really said "we didn't get hacked, we got socially engineered." Yeah man. That's called getting hacked. Weakest link is always the person, and the crypto/web3 space is uniquely susceptible to it because of their misplaced belief that the technical security alone fixes all of their problems as opposed to just moving them around.
MEE6 could be held criminally liable for this. Easily.
A 23 minute video with tye word scam on the title and a disclaimer?
Ooh boy, this is good!
"What actually happened is social engineering-"
YEAH, THAT'S HOW MOST HACKING ATTEMPTS *SUCCEED*.
lmao yes I did a double take at that. 'it wasn't a hack, it was social engineering' that falls under the umbrella of hacks. it's a hack. not all hacks are done with code and in fact social engineering is an easier method of hacking than most others because despite what most people would claim, most people are actually quite trusting of strangers on the internet
circa 18:01 who tf keeps security-related permissions on their everyday account? If you have an account with that sort of access to Discord's biggest bot, it would be the most basic security practice to keep that account safe, def. not keeping these privileges on your known main account.
Would love to see some proper litigation into this
something I didn’t see as an alternative that I’m going to put here since I hear it’s good
unbelievaboat
"We are a real company!" now this got me ahah.
Honestly in my opinion mee6 cannot really be trusted anymore seeing as this is ANOTHER flaw thanks for this NTTS you truly are the coffeezilla of Discord!
i started work on a bot in 2018 and all the way back then i hated mee6. something about it. maybe it was useless levels, that do nothing other than pester you that a number went up in mee6's database, maybe it was simply how overused mee6 is. idk
whatever it was i guess my suspicions were accurate. not only is the bot garbage but the devs are lying scammers too
It’s a shame that people got scammed, but also, they invested in NFTs
Dang a 23 minute NTTS video let’s go

I also didnt have breakfast today, I only had a meal in the morning
If discord doesn't do anything regarding this I feel like the community should ask the owner's of the servers to remove Mee6.
I literally think the Co-owners are Hold at gunpoint by the owner
I don't think you fully understand the meaning behind "co-owner"
Fitting how they call it a Dutch auction because we hate paying full price for some things
"People who get mad are not the ones that are effected" they basically just admitted its the ones who just accept it gets effected
Mee6 is doing the closest edge to a FTC audit in the past 3 years. I think they are probably under some form of investigation already considering the shadiness and illicit activity they are demonstrating. I really hate interacting with mee6 in any server, there is no saving them. Just switch to Dyno, it is the next best bot in my opinion.
Okay, so NTTS is the next Coffeezilla.
I love how the co founder is called Anis, seems fitting indeed
In retrospective it all make sense, every move is to take more money. Delay because they want money, splitting into avatar/pass is due to by the time it's the craze of pass meta.
if it isn't one thing with mee6 it's another
