#scammed
This is real. I’ve been completely fucked over, I am blown away by the support. Do not attack anyone mentioned in the video please.
I love making content for you guys, and this is easily the most real video I’ve ever made. I revere nothing but my family and closest friends. They are one in the same as this business. I will do everything in my power to keep the dream alive. Pt 2 coming soon.
I’m just glad it wasn’t Clint. So sorry this happened, we love papa
It all seems like a big joke/satire.
im sorry about this
All hail oompnah daddy
Can't wait for part 2 man, this is madness! Hope to see you on top with the biz very soon.
after this video i realized all the men related to oompa sound almost exactly the same
That’s what I thought.
@@enderconoyears and years of inbreeding
That’s the south for ya
man
Literally
Feeling a little broke rn. How about we start up a candy company buddy?
This comment is absolutely hilarious.
This story is crazy, literally stealing his money was as easy as stealing candy from a kid hahahahahha.
Sorry.
Caleb's Caramel Toast Kens?
All jokes aside, I love Your stuff man.
bet
You could call it cinnamon TOast crunch
Its absolutely insane how Caleb is a mirror image of his dad down to the voice. Love you oompa, hope things turn around for you.
Right? I was convinced for a fraction of a second it was just Caleb acting haha
He is a mirror image of his dad I saw it especially in his father's day post on Instagram
@@oz78ME TOOOO
His cousin sounds EXACTLY The same too!! It’s crazy
His dad sounds a lot like Clint as well
The scariest part is the fact that Jake probably sent Wil there as the fall guy, he was not only gonna scam Caleb's business but was even willing to also have a innocent man take the blame for his scumbag actions.
I mean they laid it out in detail that he was pretty much sent there as a fall guy for Jake and as an end result got bankrupted.
@@spiro3142 ik cuz he's a spineless criminal
The fact he can be so nonchalant about being scammed and still making the video funny to watch is insane. An absolute mad lad❤
He has to be fort he sake of his business. He's also fortunate to have a significant cash flow from TH-cam. I have no idea what I'm talking about.
@@officerjimlaheyand your probably still right about even not know what your talking about
I mean he is a multimillionaire,
Did I read he doesnt know what jake looks like? Please tell me will is jake 🤣😭
It's just money, but it's also behind the camera. Things are different when you're laying in bed at night I suppose
Dude seriously massive respect for taking Will under your wings, he got kicked to the curb and stabbed in the back just the same and the fact that you hold no grudges or ill will(funny pun moment) against him is commendable. Hope things get sorted and you guys turn a profit as soon as things are up and running
Funny pun moment 😂
you mean tyler blevins?
Missed a Will Smith joke right there
I keep seeing people with my name/part of my name do terrible stuff like this it's terribly disappointing.
@@Coffeebean2010 Don't let it get to you my dude, you're always more than the name you've been given
As a welder myself, I was beyond happy to see clint is a fellow member of the trade
Was my main job before working with Caleb
Was awesome to see Clint a welder too as a fellow 80 hours a day welder
@@ClintMondocare to address the rumors that you and oompa are in fact the same person?
@@ClintMondoayo that's what I'm training for currently
@@ClintMondo now all the Marvin Heemeyer jokes are a little more concerning.
HUGE kudos to Will for being the ONLY decent and honest person in the whole story. That’s what brutal honesty and true integrity look like. He must have some badass family members!
I like you profile pic
So everyone else during this story was lying? Jake was definitely a scammer but everyone else?
Will knew all along and as he said he was slowing down the work and that was so they could get more money. All Will did was jump ship. That is so obvious to me and I cannot believe they don't see it. He only told the truth when it became more advantageous to switch teams. He knew all along what was going on.
@@AnyoneCanSeefair assessment based off of this video alone but in the other video jake admits in writing to manipulating and blackmailing will, and if will really was in the know jake would’ve used that against him but he didn’t. Definitely proves his innocence.
Big ups to Will, bro went from the most "useless" employee to literally saving the entire business. You can tell hes a very nice and genuine guy, so glad he ended up joining the team.
best character arc ever lol
all it took was a little patience and generosity from Caleb, and some honesty from Will.
Jake's problem is asking Will to be part of the "project". He can stand as a witness for the case.
lol, what r u sayin...
@@konaqua122
Yeah something tells me jake isnt the sharpest tool
It’s terrible that this happened, I don’t understand why someone would steal money from a candy company.
ikr this is just sad😢
It’s like stealing candy from a millionaire TH-camr
Because money
@@mello5442 the fact someones rich does not justify stealing in any way
Cause the guy wanted to get his anime waifus
You cannot convince me that Caleb's dad in this isn't just Caleb in a costume.
He not only kept this video still serious, but did add his own Oompaville humor to ease tension. That's something i can respect. Hard to be positive in situations like this. Hope this go well, Caleb!
This is real? I think it's a joke so stopped watching
@@bigboicreme if i remember, he mentioned having some personal issues he couldn't speak of legally in a previous, so i assumed this was the follow up.
I’m not an avid viewer and can’t even tell how seriously to take any of this
@ShyMooKohai01 yeah whole situation is really sad. Glad he is getting back on track
@@nicoleparreira1024 it is serious
Sorry bro I was just needed more cat food in Battle Cats :(
ONG
how could u ;(
😡😡😡😡😡

We need another Matt and oomp colab
I feel so bad for Caleb. He's such a solid dude and you can tell he had so much passion for his work and candy project. Def did not deserve what happener to him. I believe he will get through this even stronger, smarter and better than ever.
The love we all have for Oomp, he could NOT not succeed! There are MILLIONS more of us that would have come out of the woodwork for Oomp 💪🏼❤️🫶🏻🤘🏻💯😊
I feel bad too, and wish he hadn't learned this lesson about not trusting people too much - it was an expensive one.
@theautarch7837 we all gotta learn to get better. I'm sure hes gonna look into preventing these sorts of situations
I like the documentary format you went for, it helps with the emotion and getting viewers to feel more empathetic. I’m truly sorry for what happened, you really didn’t deserve this.
The worst thing is betrayal comes from a friend not an enemy.
Especially when you've trusted them
How would u get betrayed by an enemy?
@@zoobmaball3697 that's the point. You can't
But an enemy can’t betray you.
That's why you keep business separate. People you do business with can't be your friends. Cut throat I know, but its for the best
As a lawyer, I see people ripped off all the time. There are always warning signs. Never enter into a big contract without first meeting the person face to face, visiting their workplace, speaking with their other clients. If you can’t afford to fly to meet them and visit their workshop/business, you can’t afford to enter into the contract. Definitely look at their previous work and speak to their former client’s, and know what questions you want to ask. If you are getting something built, visit the factory regularly. If you can (and you should be able to), stagger the payments so that you can see the work is getting done as you are paying. Finally, never contract a friend/internet acquaintance who is an up-and-coming professional to do professional work for you. That kind of thing is usually really hard, and inexperienced people generally don’t have the ability to do it. Please learn from this poor guy’s mistake.
As a lawyer? How about as a functioning adult? Most adults know all of these things and don't need to pass the bar to not do this.
@@CemeteryLarrynot every adult is well-educated on stuff like business. usually you dont need to know much to enter the workforce.
Some solid advise. Doing business with family and friends is definitely stressful and can lead to some bad outcomes. But is looks like he's making it work. If you have no experience there is a world of consultants out there. And you can't just entrust the the success of your business on one guy. You said multiple payments in stages is better. After an initial payment, all other payments would require parts lists and labor costs, and a physical inspection to make sure the work is getting done. In my personal experience, the more casual the relationship with a manufacturer, the more chance there is of a project going south. You have to lay out your expectations at the beginning, remain professional, and make sure the work is getting done. I really feel bad that this happened to Oompaville. With someone of Oompa's intelligence, I think he learned a lot, and now has the expertise to take things to the next level. You will find that if you cross train your staff, and somebody gets ill or leaves, the business just keeps moving along. Always be training someone like an Ops Manager to take over your job. If you do that, you can take a vacation from time to time, or attend to family matters without worrying that your business will collapse. Cross training lowers the stress level for everyone.
@@CemeteryLarry again, as a lawyer, who has had hundreds of clients over the decades who have made these mistakes, I can assure you that there are a significant number of adults who don’t know this - including, self evidently, Oompaville. People tend to trust people they know to do the right thing. That’s human nature. As an adult, I would have thought you would now that. But I guess not.
@@CemeteryLarryI did make this mistake when investing in crypto. I didnt see the company in person but still ended up being a sort of rug pull. In my defence I was a beginner in investing and learned from it. (. Not a huge amount tho 15 k or so )
the fact that he never broke down or lost his entire temper shows how strong caleb is. don't give up big man, we all love you
With that level of composure my guy is unstoppable
Who is Jake?
*gasp* the crypto king?!?!?!
Strong or mentally unstable 😅
I can’t believe he doesn’t dox the scammer to warn possible future victims. Dude sounds like a big time con artist. Probably has tons of victims in his wake.
Just recently discovered your content as I’m a KallMeKris fan. Watching this video made me really appreciate the strength of character you possess. Starting your own company including manufacturing - wow. Respect. So sorry you were betrayed by someone working for you. Glad you were able to overcome this adversity. Can’t wait to try your candy! (Which is currently sold out - congrats!)
Absolutely. I love kall me Kris so he is so great for her
Whats the red flags that he didn't even noticed this?
You lost a friend but gained a better one. Y’all will make it, I have faith
Real same situation found more responsible and mature friends!!! Got me away from a bad path!
@CeedayGaming no one cares
Y'all "will", get it? Will as in the green guy in the video? 🤠
@CeedayGaming🧢🧢🧢
A close friend, yet you never even met them before in person. Guess definitions of close friends vary.
I love that oompa is still laughing and being funny, even after he lost 1 mil. It’s insane how oompa can stay so calm.
well i guess he got his machine working now so the goal is accomplished.
@@snuggleblanket1eah but he's still 1 Mil in the red, in his place I would've been searching for Jake day and night 😊
edit: the emoji was a misclick but it's funnier now
I would argue that it's just on camera. I doubt that he is that calm off camera.
But even so, he got his business started so, even if he is in the red, at least there's hope that they can get the 1m back. (Even if a case against jake would not push through, although I hardly doubt it because of the soon-to-be star witness Will)
I mean comedy is probably just his coping method
@@hugotimmo4989comedy is a lot of people’s coping mechanisms. It helps and I no harm comes from it. 😌
I bet there's a ton of homeowners having flashbacks about the time they hired that smooth-talking contractor, that was a friend-of-a-friend. This behavior actually gets easy to spot once you've seen the patterns.
🌚🌚 yeah, friend of my mother in law. At least it was only 1k he got from us, we figured it out quiet early.
My mom is one of those homeowners 😢. She was scammed out of $140,000. It was horrible.
Never give money to anyone who plays gacha games or is obsessed with crypto. It's all a gambling obsession, theyre mentally compromised
Facts
It’s insane people think crypto is an investment. It’s the biggest scam ever.
Caleb & Coffee is the ultimate crossover we didnt deserve, but needed. 2 internet detectives working together makes me smile so much
I agree:)
Agreed
Agreed
Yoooo Wsg Heisenberg
They’ve collabed before…
Props to Will for sticking it out in what would have been a very hostile environment for a while there.
Especially considering from his perspective he probably had no idea where it was coming from. His boss sent him to help with this machine that he's probably under the impression Oompa and his crew have some idea how to use, and these guys all hate him for not being a machine wizard lol. I'm glad they worked things out and became friends after though. Nothing like a common enemy to bring friends together! XD
Kinda harsh how he was treated at first
@@nointernet2649in hindsight obviously, but keep in mind that they were under the impression that he would be a specialist, that would be able to put the machine working no problem
I don’t trust will I think he knew more that he’s letting on prolly got fed up with jake after not getting payed and turned on him maby I’m wrong but somthin sus about him
@@neighborhoodturnt bro it's real life not among us
Caleb was dragged to his lowest point but remained composed and prioritized the well-being of his employees. To be able to maintain your dignity and remain selfless is nothing but admirable. I'm glad he pulled through and I have nothing but respect for this man. I will 100% be buying some candy and will continue supporting this beautiful man.
I’m so sorry this happened but Dads impression of Jake had me rolling. I hope justice is served in the end.
For real!
Keep a hold of Forrest! Seems like the dude would walk through fire for you.
I honestly hope you'll be able to deal with Jake and I'm really sorry this happened to you. I don't understand how people can do this. Greed is a b*tch... 😡 I loved the documentary style of the video btw. Very professional and well produced 🤌
He is my best buddy. I love that guy. Thank you!!
@@oompavillewhatd he say that was 'conveniently' blurred out
@@kazxis6057”We should name your first store Allahu Snackbar”

I’m really confused now which one is Forrest?? Is he the one on the forklift? I went back through the video and I thought they said his name was something else.
where is the gofundme link???????
was gonna donate to children's hospital but this is more important

can u post more...I don't think I can take these week long intervals anymore😭😭😭😭
That's what I'm wondering, where do I buy shares? I love candy
Candy is permanent, sick kids aren’t
@@davidcrocker846😂
It's crazy that he can be on this channel and talk about something so serious without breaking down. In fact, throughout the video, he's so comical about this, cracking jokes and stuff. True talent.
Probably his way of coping. You can still sense how hurt he is by the situation though. I feel so bad.
If your going to cry over money than that’s sad. It’s an object. True talent ? It’s called being a normal human being who doesn’t snap in half like a pencil when faced with problems.
@@vincedamato8563 when you work hard and persevere through issues to get that type of money just to have it stolen from you in a scam, it's not sad to cry about it, it's fair. humans can snap when faced with problems, whether small or big, and have that right
@vincedamato8563 ah yes crying over getting scammed out of over a million dollars is sad ya know the money that goes twords paying bills and getting food totally pathetic but no fr go see how it feels to lose that much then come back here and say you wouldn't break down
@@themanwhosapproaching humans can snap when faced with small or big problems ? Bruh that sounds more like a mental issue. A normal healthy human being is able to control his or her emotions and never be negative no Mather what the circumstance. Crying is so common these days and its not surprising seeing how probably 90% of the population not including kids are more or less mentality unstable. Humans are given a body with everything it needs to thrive and yet we should cry and self destruct over an object or currency called money.
At 33:45 that sound that was over dubbed was from the beginning of Aphex Twin's "Alberto Balsam". Respect to whoever on the team did that. You are my kind of people.
Absolutely disgraceful. $10,000 in gacha games, and ran away with the rest? Dude. I’ve playing gacha games for nearly a decade and my total amount hasn’t even come CLOSE to that. What an actual impulsive maniac. I hope justice is served swiftly and quickly.
@striyrex6075 right. Which makes it even worse. Multiple instances of 10K and continued to run. Absolute garbage.
Bro I could put down for a house with that
DarkSydePhil spent 100,000 on a single gacha game. The addiction is real
Yall pay for gachas? Just get a moded version! Free pulls
I bet the game was summoners war
It makes me happy that Will was in the dark about this whole scam too and that he wasn't involved. He looks like a really nice and genuine guy. I hope Caleb and the boys will be able to help him out.
No, he looks clueless. But i guess that is What ”genuine and nice” is 😂

@@bigboicremewhy wouldn't it be?

Now I do.
Man props to Caleb and Will for working it out and being better in spite of the adversity
It's insane that you can stay so calm. I hope everything works out man
go boxing ring
@@LunaTulpano bro, jail time.
@@al3xsmoothwithitI agree
@@al3xsmoothwithitdid you see how the vid ended? I feel like we won't see that man for a looooong time😂
Go sleep
Caleb responding to the question "What are you gonna do about Jake?" with a sinister smile as the video fades to black has to be the most spine-tingling thing I've seen in a while. Hope this guy gets what's coming, and I hope you guys get back what's been stolen.
Jake's problem is that he asked Will to go to Oompa. This means he has now direct connection to Jake. Will, being a childhood friend of Jake, would have access to Jake's address, probably some conversations, and other important stuff. Him, being friends with the culprit, Jake, is a strong witness in court.
If Will doesn't exist, there's no chance that Oompa can get the 1M back since they never met in person, like ever.
Coming soon: Sour boys Jake flavor.
@@Enterstyxit will never arrive, just like Jake
@@Enterstyx ah sour patch kids first sour then sweet revenge nwahhahahh >:]
@@konaqua122 Well, if Will ever turns up missing, we know who made them disappear.
Around 6 years ago the same thing happened to my family, my parents’ high school friends they were making a company with took our 3mil and refused to give it back. We’ve been fighting them in court for many years now, and it looks like we might be getting our money + interest back. Stay strong oompaville, it’ll all work out in the end.

Bought myself some of your candy today. Glad you're able to get the ball rolling despite all of this, and I'm so sorry this happened to you. You're such a bright soul, with a great team behind you, and none of you deserve this.
I feel your pain, I am a 22-year-old housing developer and was ripped off when I found out my subcontractors charged me a 150% markup on the job and lied to me. I was locked in this disgusting contract and the only way out was to hire a litigation lawyer to get a mutual release because they could've sued me for breaching the contract and damages with "potential loss of profits".
Did you end up hiring the lawyer?
@@Kazmi1217 Yes, I ended up getting a mutual release with my litigation lawyer.
@@Kazmi1217 I also ended up becoming a sigma male.
@@DisabledDollDiariesI think I found one of the subcontractors
Wasn’t the litigation lawyer super expensive as well?
On a happier note, Caleb's dad is like and old version of himself who is being voiced over by his son. My heart aches that something like this happened to you guys, love from everyone ❤
I still have no clue how Oompaville can talk about something so serious and still make jokes and make others laugh. We love that, hope everything gets better. Sending my best wishes to you Caleb
That's life my guy. Misfortune happens but Misery is a choice. Caleb has had the misfortune of being stolen from but he has the wherewithal to avoid the misery and make the best out of the situation
@@TheYardninja correct but, think he’s choosing misery for Jake lol
I've watched oompa a lot mainly from his part in the podcast with muta, and it seems like his self-deprecating/edgy humour is almost like a defense mechanism that he knows keeps the others on their toes so he consciously doubles down on it so they aren't clear on what's going on in his mind. that's some 4D chess gaming right there. Kinda like Sam Hyde but oomp's got his own style of it going.
He’s kind of a sad clown personality, it can be hard to tell when something is seriously wrong bc he makes it so lighthearted
Wait... Is this satire or he really did get scammed?
22:39 "Blue hair, Fortnite" 😭😭😭
i feel sorry for Will being the scapegoat for Jake, the fact that he was basically ruining both Oompa and Will for his personal gained hope there will be justice

Man took stealing candy from babies to the extreme. Honestly, really terrible that this happened and I hope that Caleb and everyone he's working with have it all figured out in the end.
I have been watching this man since day one and I have so much respect for this man for everything he has accomplished, very horrible that someone would do this to this man.
@CeedayGamingnever heard of you, and never wanted to
I find it comical how you consistently refer to him as "this man".
This man
What man? This man?
Were you talking about this man?
29:16 "We had a moment where we were going to consume Will" Killed me the first time and had to re-watch it after it was over. Definitely a crazy situation though. If I remember, I'll have to look at some of your candy.
The fact that all these people almost instantly came to calebs aid goes to show how awesome he is
It more goes to show how awesome they are for helping him. Getting help doesn't make you anything but fortunate, and hopefully appreciative. When you're a known public figure, people are often more willing to help you.
…it’s his family and friends, I hope they would.
@@skeletontoes7692exactly. Not sure why they are so surprised.
You can tell that oompa is so far beyond being sad about this. Like he seems ready to destroy this man and laugh while doing it. And more power to him honestly bc most people don’t have the drive to tackle anything this hard. Best of luck oompa we’re cheering you on
The love we all have for Oomp, he could NOT not succeed! There are MILLIONS more of us that would have come out of the woodwork for Oomp 💪🏼❤️🫶🏻🤘🏻💯😊
I'm incredibly disappointed. It's so hard to see things like this happening to genuine people. I really do hope karma takes care of this situation in the most satisfying way possible.
Karma is real. The scammer will get what he deserves and then some.
Karma will make her mark, she always does one way or another
Sadly it is genuine ppl who are more likely to be targeted by scammers.
People who got access to his candies due to country (I’m from Australia so I can’t) should take this as an opportunity to support the business by buying the stuff at stores etc to clear him from his losses asap, these guys deserve it after all that bs
They don't ship here ?
Incredible high quality video. Caleb always acts goofy and dumb but its actually a genius with a big heart that was sadly used against him. When friends stab you in the back it hurts twice as much. But seeing how he handles things everything will do a full 180. We believe in you Caleb. May justice come for Jake
he does not have a big heart

Weird. I wonder if dude was actually ever sick. Also, how tf does someone come up with a "american-made-mass-candy-production-and-packaging-machinery" grift. Can't wait for part 2, need to know more
Jake is the biggest ball of slime. I hope he gets in trouble for this and is held accountable for his crimes. Caleb, you went above and beyond to help in every way you could. You absolutely did not deserve what happened to you. You’re such a nice and genuine person. I’m very sorry this happened to you. I hope your company comes around and is super successful.

It’s such a shame that a friend betrayed you and it seems like all these situations came from people close to the victims.
I can’t begin to believe what your going through right now. You’ve been one of my favourite content creators for a long time, and it’s terrible to see you get betrayed after being so nice. We’re all here for you Caleb. I really hope you can make it through this.
*you’re
It blows my mind how anyone can call a person that they have never met, a friend. If I am hiring a contractor for that sum of money I am meeting them in person first.
Nah bruh that’s just depressing, hope you somehow recover all of that money
Unfortunately that never happens. In the money he paid for a PI and Lawers hes’s looking at a loss no matter what most likely. And even if homeboy is prosecuted if he has the money hidden well enough, it just disappears.
@@bochapman1058I don’t think it’s about the money anymore.
I can't even begin to imagine the stress and anxiety this caused you. As an avid fan for 6 years I've grown a lot as well as you have. My family owns a comic store in Alabama. We've had a similar incident but not nearly as bad as you've had it. One of our properties was being sold out from under us and due to the law we were forced to move within 7 days of just moving into the property that we'd just almost paid off. I wish you the best Caleb and I will continue to watch your content until youtube becomes irrelevant.
family? Alabama? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
I am so sorry caleb that you have been through this honestly its been so rough this year and lately but I am so proud of you for being able to create content and truck through ur actually amazing fr.
Dads remark killed me “will …. Blue hair, Fortnite” that says it all that killed me
I wish you all the luck in the world man you completely deserve the money you've made and karma will catch up to this guy.
I have been waiting for this for so long to find out what happened behind the scenes. So sorry that this happened to u Oompa. This was so undeserved. You bring joy and entertainment to so many people. This should’ve never happened
Remember when everyone was blaming his ex 💀
I never would have expected the man who stalked and killed a bear with nothing but a bow and arrow and no shoes to say “blue hair, fortnite”
😂😂😂
How is this a close friend it's some guy you never met that you hired to do a job for you lol
Sorry this happened to you guys. I've been waiting for this video. It seems like you guys are on the up and up! Ready for part 2.
This will change you as a person. Almost to the point of paranoia.
I had a close family member steal a grand, which 10,000 would seriously improve our lives, I can’t imagine this much.
I truly am sorry. Your videos bring so much laughter and joy.
oompaville was one of the last people I’d ever expect to get scammed. I wish him all the very best.
The guy is a legit engineer though, he just decided to scam to fund his Genshin addiction@@tylershadlow5792

Of course he was...
Could you imagine the anxiety of being Will in that room after telling everyone they didn't design the thing?
the amount of bricks that man must've shat
Im amazed by how well youve handled this incredibly stressful situation. Im even more amazed that you never gave up and now the candy company is about to finally come to fruition! Your bravery and perseverance is so inspiring.
It's only when you give up, that you lose. See, with success comes trials and tribulations. But if you've built something that works, and you have proven that it can scale up, you can ride out some pretty severe storms. It won't be fun in the short term, but in the long term, you can definitely get back on top.
Calebs dad is the most country dad I’ve ever seen🤣
He’s the physical embodiment of all of southern states in America
That is absolutely disgusting. I can never understand how greed can corrupt a person, to the point where they can sleep at night knowing they have possibly ruined someones life. This fellow Virginian is rooting for you and your family, and hope that Jake gets whats coming to him.
I'm sorry this happened to you. Ik 2$ isn't much but I love you Caleb and this is just truly sad 😔 ❤
I think we all know where caleb got his personality/sense of humor.... cause dad is hilarious 😂
NO, NOT A CLIFFHANGER!!!!! But really that is very unfortunate to hear, especially for a startup business too. I've seen this plenty of times in my field, but its still unfortunate to learn about this the hard way. I wish you the best of luck with your business, and if pursued, any legal action too :D
Haha
I think the word "scam" isn't a strong enough word for this. I would call this fraud. The smile at the sudden end got me though, hope that guy ends up in jail and every cent is returned to Oompa.
Yeah, it is fraud. After all they had contract where he was promised specially manufactured machine made by this company, but it was just an resale. Ofc, we haven't seen the contract so who knows if there's some stuff there, but from information we have this seem like actual fraud and breach of contract.
I can't help but love how Caleb has everyone by his side to help him, I also love how much Caleb is like his dad 😂❤
I’m so sorry this happened to you Caleb :( you are such an amazing person and shouldn’t have to go through this. Thank you for still posting when you didn’t have to at all. I really hope everything is okay now. Thank you for all that you do for us. Great quality video and form of story telling.
I thought something big went down, but I didnt expect this. Im so sorry to hear about this and cant even imagine the stress this all
caused. I wish the best for you
I love Caleb's dad hah
Hopefully Jake gets what's coming for him. What a piece of work.
@tsa2towers dunno but some people are saying jakerton but i dont beleive that
Man I couldn’t tell if this was a skit and then when I realized it was real… I was really wishing it was just a skit cuz how unfortunate this situation is but man I’m glad you’re all up and running now. Next paycheque we buying CANDY
It’s shocking how you are so calm after you lost $1,000,000. Keep it up
We don't know what's going on inside his head
He's doing just fine don't worry..
Not like he ain't got a few more millions sitting around
@@konstantine381lol he still lost a million regardless, no one likes to lose money
I can't believe somebody would steal from somebody so honest and genuine. This world truly is a terrible place.
Upon first glance I believe Clint has committed this crime
Clint would never
Hadn't seen him in a while and I genuinely got concerned
Already stole his last name...
@@heatfragment I'm glad you know him so personally
@@sgtstr3am785 yes i know him personally, he's my great great grandfather on my mother's side.
This felt like a Netflix documentary
I think one of the many things necessary to succeed is to have a team of people that are just as passionate about the business as you are and you’ve got that. The ending was sick and like your mom said jake deserves all that comes to him
Wow...the way this was made, I almost didn't believe it could be real at the beginning. Like a mockumentary, until I watched the whole thing. Caleb, you and your family are awesome and this will be a massive success and endeavor for you! I wish you luck man. Also, I live in TX if you want a loyal and non scamming employee 😂
Same, I second this, I'd definitely donate some time to help keep him afloat
I agree with everything Forrest said... I'm fuming and already came up with multiple scenarios to eliminate Jake. Honestly just thinking about the stress makes me feel nauseous, I can't imagine how Caleb dealt with it
When Oompa said they "were going to consume Will and sacrifice his heart to the blood gods", I laughed unnecessarily hard!!
I seriously don't understand how people can be so evil. I'm really sorry, Caleb and I'm willing to support you on whatever venture you have next along with the oompa store
being evil is actually pretty easy. you just need to sacrifice all of your morale while thinking you didn't sacrifice anything.
@@YoruharuBeing evil is actually easy🤓🤓🤓
@@bromann0603 actually, you forgot the "acktually", actually, actually
@@Yoruharu my fault gang
@@bromann0603 no probs dude
I legit hate scammers. Why can't they just get a job??? I'm sorry this happened to you Caleb. Sourboys to the moon! 🚀
the thing is he had a job 😭
I love how when he is asked whats gonna happen to Jake, Caleb just smiles.
"as soon as Tyler Blevins shows up" in reguards to Will's arrival is so funny.
14:05 I loved her response to that question; what an awesome mom you have!
Sorry this happened to you, I hope you can recover your losses and that justice is served.
Clint calmly forgetting that him and Caleb are related had me like “yeah they’re definitely related 😭❤️”
"He wrote a cease and desist letter when he was 10" jake chose the worst guy to scam, this guy's been in the business and he's a professional. This is like the john wick of court cases.
