  • Out of the many HUGE red flags surrounding this event, this one in particular caught my eye:

    The new festival was being marketed under the slogan “FYRE Festival 2 is real”.

    If you have to market your event by starting with such basic information, (e.g. by trying to reassure people that your event actually exists and isn’t a prank) that should worry both you and your customers.

  • I find it amusing that there are people who fell for this scam twice.

    • I think most people who bought a ticket are youtubers and other influences who don't want to miss train wreck 2.0. Netflix made a documentary about Fyre 1, you don't want to miss out on Fyre 2. But the people who did fall for this second scam (3rd or 4th if you count his other scams) deserve to fight to the death for a matras in a refugee tent encampment.
