In yet another controversy surrounding his financial activities, streamer Sliker has been accused of creating a fake charity supposedly supporting Somali pirates, with donations secretly funneling directly to his personal PayPal account.
This marks the third time Sliker has faced accusations of financial misconduct, raising serious questions about both his ethics and platform accountability.
The alleged scam involved Sliker promoting a donation link under the guise of helping Somali pirates. While the cause itself got folks talking across the streaming community, what followed was even more disturbing.
According to reports, funds sent through this link were redirected straight to Sliker’s personal accounts rather than any legitimate charitable organization.
Sliker’s history makes this accusation particularly credible. He previously admitted to borrowing nearly $200,000 from fellow streamers and viewers, claiming he needed the money to cover gambling debts. That incident led to temporary consequences but apparently wasn’t enough to deter further questionable behavior.
Is anyone really surprised?
The streaming community has responded with mixed reactions. While many condemned Sliker’s alleged actions, others pointed out the absurdity of the situation.
“Anyone donating to a Somali pirate charity deserves what they get,” wrote one commenter, highlighting the bizarre nature of the supposed cause itself.
Platform enforcement remains inconsistent despite Sliker’s pattern of behavior. Many viewers are questioning why he hasn’t faced permanent bans after multiple instances of using his platform to solicit money under false pretenses. Content creators with similar histories have typically faced more severe consequences.
This highlights the ongoing issues with the verification of charitable streams. While many content creators use their platforms for legitimate fundraising, cases like this damage the credibility of genuine charity efforts throughout the gaming community.
