Ludwig Ahgren and xQc Team Up to Reimburse Twitch Fans Scammed by ItsSliker
Ludwig Ahgren and Felix “xQc” Lengyel have joined forces to reimburse all the Twitch fans who were tricked by ItsSliker into giving him money for his gambling addiction. However, they have different motivations behind their actions.
xQc’s Reasons for Reimbursement
The YouTuber believes that xQc has two main reasons for participating in the reimbursement. He suspects that xQc feels guilty because he has earned a substantial amount of money from gambling. Additionally, it could be a strategic move for xQc to improve his public image.
Ludwig’s Reasons for Reimbursement
Ludwig, on the other hand, claims that he is doing it because he has the means to help and wants to make a positive impact, even if it means temporarily compromising his values by accepting sponsorships from mobile games.
Positive Trade-Off
Ludwig considers the potential trade-off worth it, stating that he doesn’t mind promoting low-quality mobile games if it means improving the lives of many individuals.
Twitch’s Response and Removal of ItsSliker
Twitch has taken action by removing ItsSliker’s partnership with the platform, although he has not been banned yet. Ludwig believes that ItsSliker should be banned and commends Twitch for taking steps to prevent him from earning money on their platform.
ItsSliker is estimated to owe approximately $380,000 to streamers and fans he scammed. Despite their different motivations, Ludwig and xQc have received praise for their efforts to assist those affected by the scam.
