Yeah, it's shitty of this guy to fake donations only to charge back... But no one's life should be ruined over something like that
The kid is an absolute dickhead, and he should pay for any and all damages but a 50k debt at 18 can destroy his life. If he can somehow chargeback at least half of the donations I really do think he should, a 25k debt is a lot more manageable and not as life destroying as a 50k debt.
Why would someone be an 'idiot' if they didn't happen to check their credit card bill online during the month? I have a card or two I rarely use and would never think to check the balance every week or anything. I'm not using the card. I'd certainly notice at the end of the month, but to not only assume, but expect under threat of being an 'idiot', people to check their bill online everyday or something is ridiculous.
He'd just do a chargeback with his credit card and PayPal will be the ones making a loss.
But good to see PayPal not always siding with the donator. Seen cases where the streamer has made big losses because of trolls like this.

How can people feel bad for the parents?
If they didn't notice $50k go missing for over a month they're idiots and deserve it. That or they're loaded and literally didn't notice the $50k go missing, in that case they won't miss the $50k anyways, and will have learned a lesson.
Hopefully he is rich and can pay. If not in the end the credit card companies will charge us in some fashion to get the money back they lost.
People worried about this kid:
His Twitter hints that he has very well off parents (his "first" birthday gift of the day was a $200 workout bench), and he's poking fun at his $1010/month payments for this little stunt. He talks about blowing $4000 like it's nothing.
So, yeah.

Good, fuck this guy. He went out of his way to essentially put money in strangers' bank accounts only to yank it out after they've possibly spent it. I hope he feels this loss for years and years.

He should receive a pretty huge fine and have a credit card ban for like 10 years, but he should get the money back.
He's an idiot but this would ruin his life.

Not only that but the streamers also eat the fees on refunded donations.This is their livelihood though. A lot of Twitch streamers that are popular rely on it for money. Chargebacks taking those funds out of their pockets, as I understand it anyway, is pretty fucked up.

In my very limited understanding, he's using paypal and fraud laws don't count there?
No it won't, the guy is loaded.
Apparently he won't, seeing his twitter account. Seems like $50,000 isn't a big deal to him.

Odd.Suck a cock.
Good for the streamers though!
He tried to ruin the finances of the streamers, he got what he deserved.
Or what do you think would have happened to all those streamers when they spent the money and he took it back?

What an idiot.. I feel bad for the parents.
He can use the money he spends in casinos to pay for it.
I'm not too clued up on it but I think streamers also have to pay for the processing and chargeback penalty fees so they straight up lose money due to it in the end.
