A Hong Kong-based scooter-sharing company, Lightning Shared Scooter Co. (LSSC), ran a massive investment scam, defrauding hundreds or thousands of people across the US. Victims, including police officers, military personnel, and even a former White House press secretary seemingly endorsed the scheme. Investors, many from low-income communities, poured thousands into the app, believing they were earning money from scooter rentals. However, they couldn't withdraw their funds, realizing it was a scam. Law enforcement in multiple states is investigating, with losses estimated in the millions. The scheme highlights the vulnerability of trusting endorsements and the sophisticated nature of online investment scams.
