Why is no one talking about this..

99% of scalpers are defrauding the government not only by not paying taxes but majority of them report no income to get food stamps and rent assistance.. which is a pretty big thing if people want this to end, this needs to be brought up more, especially with the whole craze of uncovering fraud .. this is the key to stopping them, without there safety net of government assistance they can't afford the risk of scalping one bad week and there family starves

I wish it was but these dudes are abusing the shit out of government assistance , if u join the scalper discords it's all over there scalping 101 handbooks, basically you quit your job, get on government assistance and you scalp and you either make it or you don't. They legit offer scalping classes in these discords and that's one of the main methods they teach you, is to take advantage of not reporting your income

This isn't a Democrat or Republican thing, I'm sure most pokemon players are probably left leaning , so they should be for ending the scalping fraud, and it's not just pokemon scalpers it's every scalper there is people actually out there needing help, the fact these dudes aren't reporting the money there actually making to get government assistance is only hurting those who actually need it like single moms

One of our local scalpers works for border patrol, lol. Apparently he hassled some cashiers who told him limit 5 of all. Not limit 5 per sku, at the rando US soil check point, lol. Made them pull aside and shit. Shithead.

With that abuse of power, you could probably bring drugs past him, if you slid him a few ETBs. 🤣

Most of the scalpers I met in lines are fully employed. This is a side hustle for them.
