Ive gifted him before, and got involved in one of his giveaways and lets just say I very quickly challenged him on a winner of one of his competitions and he said yes he knew her but because she had a good following, he thought it was good for everyone involved. Ultimately, he said 'yep, I just send the stuff to my pals...'. I refused to send the gift to the'winner' and it was never brought up. I also challenged him on why the post had been removed and he said he always removes them. Its blatant scamming.
In other news, i now see small businesses I know gift him stuff and cringe, because they will get NOTHING in return, but I guess its their lesson to learn.
