Kanye West, the billionaire and famous American singer, revealed that he turned down a $2 million offer to participate in a scheme promoting digital currency scam aimed at his fans. The scheme required West to promote a fake digital currency to his 32 million followers and then claim that his account was hacked. West said, ‘I was offered $2 million to deceive my fans by advertising a fake token. I said no to this offer and ended cooperation with the person who made the offer.’ The offer involved an initial payment of $750,000 and an additional $1.25 million after 16 hours. West’s disclosure has sparked mixed reactions in the digital currency community. Some applaud his decision to expose this fraudulent attempt, while others speculate about his motives.
