I work for Uhaul. If At all they got a glimpse of the Rental ID on any camera, depending on the size TM for 10 foot, DC, for 15, El, 17, TT for 20, and AT/JH for 26 foot trucks. Give U-Haul a call(if you can come up with the ID) and report it. The vehicle IDs are tagged to the people who have rented them. Lets get these guys!
Matthew, I have a restricted income but I can share this.GFM won't take it. Please use this for Crays It's at least a show of moral support from Nana from Montana and Pony🐈⬛
I stopped by Craze Outdoors this afternoon (Wednesday) after placing an online order. I chatted with Jason and he was still shaking in anger and yet he was close to tears of thanks for this community. Diego filled what he could of the order. The rest will wait. Which is fine. Thank you Matthew for the rallying cry to the community. I donated to the GoFundMe and it’s over $6,000 as of 6:40 pm.
I donated-not a lot, but every bit counts. A few days ago, I got sick and lost my electricity at the same time. #vanlife. I am incredibly thankful for having the Vtoman power bank that I won last year. It literally saved me. Even though I am geographically isolated, I still feel like I am part of an important and supportive community. I am happy to be able to give back both monetarily and energetically. Thank you for keeping us all connected, and tell Craze Outdoors, they are supported.
I donated as well. Hats off to you Matthew for taking the time to start the Go Fund Me for Craze. We all know that this family is near and dear to your heart. I hope this effort will at least cover the deductible they will have to pay out of pocket.
Heartbreaking news, I truly hope and pray the thieves are caught. Won't do much for the company unfortunately and sadly I'm speaking from experience. Sucks this happens often to people that put their all into making a quality company. My heart breaks for the entire team at Craze Outdoors. Very thoughtful of you Matthew to set up a Go Fund Me.
I donated $10s, wish I could give more! I just don’t have the funds! Between my apartment rent and food kind of hard up! but Craze did not deserve this. We gotta do what we can for them. I’m sure you’ll get more.!
so sorry these guys had a experience this i hope they can recover and build back up from this they seem like incredible people. definitely wish them the best of luck...
Tragic when it hits the LOCALS tears for them just unbelievable, its happening all over N.Y and now its in Canada everything going Global, Great thought Go Fund me.
Small businesses are the backbone of our community. I chipped in what I could. Sending them love, I own a small business too. I know what they are going through.
It’s been 3 hours since you posted and you’re almost halfway there. I’m # 84. I bet this is almost the worst possible time for them to have been robbed. The beginning of the camping season, and just after they made a major investment in their expansion. I don’t just feel bad for them; I feel bad for that employee they were about to hire and the people who were buying camping gear from them who are living in vans, cars and RVs because they can’t afford rents. And I feel bad for the people who can afford rent but need the spiritual renewal that comes from being out in nature while camping. It’s just terrible.
Have added a little extra to the gofundme our hearts go out to the family of CrazeOutdoors and hope they do not give up on their buisness after this, sending love from the UK.
I know how they feel. I have been robbed four times in the last two years and they have trashed my house including ripping off the garage door. I have finally moved out and took what personal items were left. I am completely destroyed. My house is off grid so when I was not there it was a perfect target. My condolences to your friends. I hope they recover. I don't think I ever will!
Patricia I was shocked to hear how many times you had been robbed and especially for a woman it's a very scary thing. I hope your new place is safer and honestly speaking, you should maybe look to getting some therapy, please don't underestimate the impact the robberies have had on your mental health. There is an online therapy organization that many people have turned to they are called "Betterhelp". Wishing you good health and safety going forward.💞
I donated. I don’t have much to give since I’m starting my own business. Helping and supporting others is the way the way to spread light and defeat the dark.
Every little helps Tina and it's the intention behind it that matters. If we all have positive wishes for the business to recover then the Universe will make it happen!😊
@Matthew, I hope you contact all the other vanlifers to ensure they see this video. I'm sure the other vanlifers in Alberta and BC would help get the word out for all the products.
Donated! It’s such a devastating thing to happen to a small business. I hope the insurance covers the inventory stolen and that the police are able to catch the thieves. I pray for the mental and physical health of everyone at Craze Outdoors and yourself. You are collaterally affected as well. Being robbed takes an emotional toll. You have a wonderful supportive community gathering around you and the Craze family. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Those sons of …. that is awful. As a retired economist, I can attest that small businesses are the greatest generators of employment relative to their size and are the foundation of local economies. So I donated what I could from here in sunny NB on the east coast. Local businesses deserve our support and the family owners seem like great people. Hopefully the sons of… will be caught quickly and the goods returned to Craze.
So sorry to hear that Matthew. They didn't deserve that at all. Of course, I'll help. If there is anything else we could do for them, please let us know.
Insurance is great, but it doesn't cover the emotional impact it has on you - whether it is personal or business. So sorry this has happened. I'm so sick of people trying to steel what you have worked hard to achieved!! Matthew, can you post the pictures that were on video? This might help catch these scumbags!!
You're right Phyllis and I think this Go Fund Me will show the family that there are people who care and who are willing to support them both financially and emotionally. They made a very good decision in making Matthew an ambassador for Craze as he will always support them in their endeavors because he's a very loyal and caring person.
Wow, over half way there in just 6 hours! Mathew, you're one of the good guys and I'm in awe of the support offered to Craze, just because you asked ❤❤
This is sad news. So sweet of you to create a GoFundMe. By the way, your description is really well written 😅 I'd give you an 'A' if you were my student. Grateful for Craze for offering the location for your meetup🙏
Oh Matthew, you are such a genuine friend to Craze Outdoors. It makes me sad that there are so many people who think they are entitled to take other people’s property and potentially ruin their lives. Hopefully they had good business insurance that will help recover their loss. We have to keep our eyes out for someone selling those products to make sure they get caught.
Oh no! you are such a man of integrity to try and help this family. As a business owner, I know how violating it is as well as the financial ramifications of this theft. Thank you for supporting them in the way you can.
Their insurance will also cover their online orders too, besides their stolen onsite inventory & property damages. We've been through this in the past, too. The psychological effects from it last forever, though 😢
That is so sad, what makes people do such things. 😠 I know this is not the same, but when my brother was very young, he got a sled for Christmas, on Christmas day he went sledding, came home, left the sled in our yard long enough to have lunch, when he went back out, it was gone, someone stole it, he was heart broken. I can just imagine what that family is going through, having their business robbed. You are such a wonderful and caring person to do this for them, bless your heart. I did donate, wish I could do more, but as the saying goes, every penny counts.
I'm happy to help. Visiting Craze is still on my list for this summer when I come to Calgary. They are good people, and I hope the jerks who did this to them are caught and prosecuted!
We all want our friends to succeed so when this happens it is heart-wrenching. This isn’t someone stealing food to feed their family. I wish i could help out with the GoFundMe but my funds are tight right now. But at the end of the month, I will definitely stop by craze outdoors and hopefully beable to buy something.
How sad, I hate when any business gets ripped off but, especially small family businesses. Donated and Insurance or not, I hope they get to see that, we will support people, who support you.
I’m so surprised by this. It’s infuriating to hear. A small business that’s so awesome deserves better than this. Ty Mathew for being a man of integrity.
So sorry to hear that this happened to them I will keep them in my prayers for a full recovery above and beyond what was taken. Thanks to you and our community I believe we can reach that goal and beyond. I pray they get caught and you keep us updated
I completely get the mix of emotions having been robbed myself in the past. Very upsetting and I extend my heart to your friends. I think it will be very prudent for the community to be aware that these robbers will be trying to sell these items on all the marketing platforms or out of their personal spaces. So ... keep an eye out for shady transactions. Hopefully these criminals can be identified and caught. I wish for Craze Outdoors to recover quickly.
Wow, I love those guys at CrazOutdoors ( my spelling maybe wrong). I dunno but it shook me to my core and I'm just a nobody. I will scrape some up and it's going to these great bunch of guys. I do hope these miserable people get caught. Love goes out to those guys.
Glad I can help, even though it's only a drop in the bucket. Looks like a lot of drops have dripped in today. Even if insurance covers some or all of it, it will take a while for them to recover. Not to mention an insurance rate hike most likely.
The worse part is losing trust in people and having to look over your shoulder...someone went thru moms place years ago, and she locked the doors forever after...funny side note was she caught them in the act and chased them down the driveway....lol!!! Gone are the days of open doors😢❤love and prayer to craze outdoors...we re in the USA but if er were up there, we d buy something...hope to visit Canada someday....😊
Wow I hate those type of people and I hope those people get in trouble and pay the fine and much appreciated of you matt and their products and great people at craze out door hope they get better soon in advance to their business.
The words I have for these people are not You tube friendly. Glad they had cameras up, but another source of security would have a couple different NO Mads that they trust, park in the yard at night. Come in after closed, leave before open. Cost ZERO. Gain making it known that they have someone around, making it easier and faster to notify the police. Another benefit would be to the No Mad. Not having to look for a place to sleep. Having a safe place, where they dont have to be concerned about the KNOCK. Stupid part on theiveies, the people who would buy what they took, are part of such a huge community. Hope they get what they deserve. safe travels

I donated what I could. I'm so mad at the scum buckets who did this horrible thing to such a nice family. Luckies Unite!

I keep coming back for the comments. Such a positive audience. I love community.
I'm so tired of thieves. It's a horrible feeling, no matter how small the loss. I hope they are able to recover all of the value.

@@TheLeopardGirl Thank you for being such a positive and supportive person. Your comments are always so kind; I love reading them.
@@Kristina_GiselaThank you sweetie!💞
sent what i could, every little helps..sent from Italy with love and hope
Oh man I recently went there because of you. They were so nice. I was going to go back to get setup with a cooler and ecoflow
Boy oh boy.
Please still do that!
@Matthew, I hope you contact all the other vanlifers to ensure they see this video. I'm sure the other vanlifers in Alberta and BC would help get the word out for all the products.
$3400 then we’d reach the 10k keep it going everyone.
Donation sent ✅️ I hope they catch the crooks.
Donated! So sorry this happened.
My heart hurts for them. Thanks for helping out, Matthew.
OMG…that’s horrible…. Contributed as I was able…. Hopefully law enforcement can track down these thieves in good time.
Just donated to the Go Fund Me. Every little bit helps. I feel like we are helping a friend.
I’m so sorry to hear about the robbery! It’s heartbreaking what is going on in the world right now
Donated! It’s such a devastating thing to happen to a small business. I hope the insurance covers the inventory stolen and that the police are able to catch the thieves.

That's heartbreaking and beyondmaddening. You're a great guy for helping out. And obviously a great friend
Oh my! Glad it wasn't when they were in the store. Praying they get caught!
So sorry to hear that Matthew. They didn't deserve that at all. Of course, I'll help. If there is anything else we could do for them, please let us know.
Good going Annie Rouleau. That is a HUGE donation. I sent them just $20 by mail. Every little bit will help.
Mike from Montreal.
@mikeperreault8939 I don't "do" online financing - do you have the address where you sent your donation so I could send them something directly?
You're very kind Annie, thank you, it will really help Craze Outdoors going forward.💞
Insurance is great, but it doesn't cover the emotional impact it has on you - whether it is personal or business. So sorry this has happened. I'm so sick of people trying to steel what you have worked hard to achieved!! Matthew, can you post the pictures that were on video? This might help catch these scumbags!!
Yes - as soon as I am allowed to I will

Wow, over $7k donated in less than 24 hours. Let’s keep going everybody. 💰💰💰💰💰💰
Wow, over half way there in just 6 hours! Mathew, you're one of the good guys and I'm in awe of the support offered to Craze, just because you asked ❤❤
I am so sorry for your friends of the channel. Donation complete I hope it helps. I wish I could do more. I will be a customer in the near future.
Oh No!!!! I hate to hear this! I hope and pray they get these criminals and maybe even some of their stuff back! I will definitely donate! ❤
Matthew you have such integrity I’ve made a donation because of you and these people seem like really good people. I hope the best for them.
They are such a nice family and seem so giving You are a great friend
Every little bit helps, everyone. Please, let's show them some love ? So, sad. I'll be praying for them, Matthew. Sending love, from S. California.
This is sad news. So sweet of you to create a GoFundMe. By the way, your description is really well written 😅 I'd give you an 'A' if you were my student. Grateful for Craze for offering the location for your meetup🙏
Not ONLY potentially, but for some, HAVE ABSOLUTELY RUINED LIVES.
Great idea/job Matthew 👍 starting a go fund me!! 👏.
Done 💞. It’s looking good $ already, Matthew. You’re doing a great thing for them. Love you darlin’🥰💞😘🏴☠️🍀

That's truly terrible, I've donated what I can and will share the link out, they seem like good people and deserve better than this.
So so sorry. I too had my business robbed years ago. Insurance should help but the disturbing situation is heartbreaking.
Karen from Florida 🌴💕
😢 now those poor people will have to spend even more money to upgrade their Anti-Theft Equipment.
Their insurance will also cover their online orders too, besides their stolen onsite inventory & property damages. We've been through this in the past, too. The psychological effects from it last forever, though 😢

This is heartbreaking! I just donated to the cause. I am sure the 'Luckies' can smash the $10,000 goal! Let's Go Luckies!
Absolutely girl!💯
Donated. Even though I don't have much. Craze didn't deserve this. I hope the police catch the thieves.
Sending PRAYERS and my support🙏.
That’s so sad. They have items that are easy to move so I can see how they would be a target. I sure hope they are insured.
I'm happy to help. Visiting Craze is still on my list for this summer when I come to Calgary. They are good people, and I hope the jerks who did this to them are caught and prosecuted!

How sad, I hate when any business gets ripped off but, especially small family businesses. Donated and Insurance or not, I hope they get to see that, we will support people, who support you.
Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I hope they catch whoever's done this horrific act. Prayers for them.
So sorry to hear that i hope they catch them.
I'm so shocked!
Small family owned/run businesses are the backbone of local economies.
Happy to do what I can. Thanks for the GoFundMe !
I’m so surprised by this. It’s infuriating to hear. A small business that’s so awesome deserves better than this. Ty Mathew for being a man of integrity.
Awesome job Matthew.
There are some very generous and good hearted people out there!🥰🥰🥰
Donated. So sorry for them. But so glad they have you Matthew and the community here to help❤
That is just awful n heartbreaking to hear but I m glad you let us know. They are such good hardworking people. I ll do what I can❤❤❤
I just checked and it’s up to $6100 so far. Good work everyone. Let’s give them the help they need. Community unite!!!!!! I donated as well.
So sorry to hear that this happened to them I will keep them in my prayers for a full recovery above and beyond what was taken. Thanks to you and our community I believe we can reach that goal and beyond. I pray they get caught and you keep us updated

Omgosh 😮I'm so sorry for them ,words can't explain and express the feelings that they you are going through Sooo sorry 😢
Wow, I love those guys at CrazOutdoors ( my spelling maybe wrong). I dunno but it shook me to my core and I'm just a nobody. I will scrape some up and it's going to these great bunch of guys. I do hope these miserable people get caught. Love goes out to those guys.
That is so frustrating and discusting! I will be praying they get caught!
Very sad to hear. Hopefully the idiots who did this are caught and the stuff is recovered.
Wow over 6100$ raised in 9 hours ❤❤❤ your loyal followers are amazing Matthew
Glad I can help, even though it's only a drop in the bucket. Looks like a lot of drops have dripped in today. Even if insurance covers some or all of it, it will take a while for them to recover. Not to mention an insurance rate hike most likely.
People that do that suck I hope they can recover from this
So sad for them…. Donated x
Life sometimes suck, they are lucky to have you. Thanks
The worse part is losing trust in people and having to look over your shoulder...someone went thru moms place years ago, and she locked the doors forever after...funny side note was she caught them in the act and chased them down the driveway....lol!!! Gone are the days of open doors😢❤love and prayer to craze outdoors...we re in the USA but if er were up there, we d buy something...hope to visit Canada someday....😊
So sorry for them. 😢Hopefully they have insurance.
So sad and infuriating. Hope they'll be ok.
Wow I hate those type of people and I hope those people get in trouble and pay the fine and much appreciated of you matt and their products and great people at craze out door hope they get better soon in advance to their business.
So sorry to hear this... Helping out from Florida - 🙏
This is heartbreaking 😥😥😥. People suck
❤❤❤It wasn't much😢..I wish I was rich...I would soooo give to a family run company. We need more of them.
Hi Matthew. Just donated. Hi Penny. ❤️
Sadly today we have to protect ourselves at every turn
I'm so sorry that this happened to your friends. Hopefully their insurance will cover most of it. 😢
The words I have for these people are not You tube friendly. Glad they had cameras up, but another source of security would have a couple different NO Mads that they trust, park in the yard at night. Come in after closed, leave before open. Cost ZERO. Gain making it known that they have someone around, making it easier and faster to notify the police. Another benefit would be to the No Mad. Not having to look for a place to sleep. Having a safe place, where they dont have to be concerned about the KNOCK. Stupid part on theiveies, the people who would buy what they took, are part of such a huge community. Hope they get what they deserve. safe travels
Hey Matthew and Penny..so sorry to hear that....
Made a donation 👍😊
Glad to be a small part of something that will hopefully make them feel better during such a lousy time.
Oh wow, what bastards I hope there caught, n hope the store recovers n the community helps out
oh my goodness that’s so sad I hope they find the thieves, very sad situation.
I hope to stop and see the store soon. Thanks for letting us know.
