The comment above this one sums up what an illegal lottery is. He has openly admitted he knows children are his core demographic, which means these illegal lotteries were clearly targeting them. With things like “if you buy my X you can possibly recieve a ps5!” Or implying he would sign random shirts and telling his audience of children they have a chance at getting a signed shirt if they bought his merch. Incidentally, that was a lie. The video proves it by showing a live stream where staff were quietly signing shirts using Jimmy’s signature, essentially forging his name. One employee realizes that they were caught and briefly looks guilty on stream before pretending nothing happened . And then there’s the feastables bullshit, where he tells it’s audience his xhicolate is “healthy” which, yeah once upon a time they were gealthuer, but he changed the ingriediants to significantly unhealthier ones and still told his audience it was “healthy”.
