Ethan “Rampage” Yau recently exposed an alleged “scammer” on Twitter after failing to pay him a six-figure debt. The World Poker Tour (WPT) ambassador claimed that Dustin Aab, who is known as an Instagram “influencer”, owes him well over $450,000 which has not been repaid since January.
Scammer Alert
Yau revealed that Aab took a personal loan from him in January after he won a $25,000 high roller event at Wynn Las Vegas in December. The agreement was that Aab would pay the loan in monthly installments but that did not happen.
Yau warned his followers and fellow players not to trust the guy especially as he presents himself on social media as a business consultant who helps people build seven-figure companies.
Poker Community Reacts
Many members of the poker community sympathized with Yau after what happened, but others also criticized him for trusting his money to Aab despite all the red flags.
Aab goes by the name “dustindacloser” on Instagram and claims to be an angel investor. He runs a consulting business that promises to help people grow their money, with services like credit repair, Amazon automation, and sales training. These types of services are commonly offered by scammers posing as marketing experts.
