Reply to comment by BarAgent in The Fyre Festival fraudster is launching his latest thing, and it looks like a party on an island. by shakycam3

Didn’t start off as fraud. But when incompetence doomed the festival they refused to be honest before it was too late and cancel/refund. So then it became fraud. Also I think he lied to investors a lot.

You’re forgetting the part where he made fake documents to con investors into giving more money.
