OverDrive commented on the accusations against Harumi regarding scamming.
"It's a strange situation with Harumi. There have already been 2 videos about him, a bunch of disgruntled people, and he hasn't posted anything about it. If this happened to me, I would spend a week streaming and explaining myself. From just one stream, I had 3 people with messages saying he borrowed money from them with interest.
I don't think he intends to scam; it's too public. But why borrow and not return winnings on time while being a BetBoom partner, that's the question," wrote insider Alexey "OverDrive" Biryukov.
In late May, YouTuber Koldyn released a video accusing Vladislav "Harumi" Radvilovich of deception and fake giveaways. More details on this situation were reported here. After the release of the first video, we reached out to Harumi for comment. He stated that he plans to resolve everything within a week and denied accusations of ludomania.
Yesterday, Koldyn released the second part of the video. The video author claimed that back in early June, he sent Harumi a list of 12 people who hadn't received money or skins. According to Koldyn, Harumi only resolved the issue with one person from that list.
Following the release of the first part of the video, new victims of deception contacted the YouTuber, still waiting for their prizes. Additionally, someone approached Koldyn who, in December 2023, lent Harumi a knife worth $500 for "a week". It's reported that by the time of the video's publication, Harumi had only sent him $50, keeping the knife for himself.
Koldyn noted that Harumi's advertisers have not terminated their contracts with him, and currently, Harumi's team is participating in the Valorant BetBoom League: Summer. Koldyn's video with screenshots of conversations can be found on YouTube under the search query "Harumi - scamming the entire community (part 2)".
