TL;DR: Things look incredibly bad. The completionist has practically admitted to misleading donors, and it seems like he is expecting the IRS will get involved (IGN). It also seems he’s threatening legal action for slander (Jobst).
The allegation that the money was not donated seems to be true (up until the AFTD donation in November of 2023) (IGN, AFTD). The Completionist has admitted he “made statements potentially implying donations were made when they had not yet been” (IGN). Karl basically states that it isn’t a potential implication, but a direct claim that he made, and is additionally is alleging that the way The Completionist benefits from IndieLand constitutes charity fraud (Jobst).
I don’t watch much Completionist stuff but he really seemed like he was reading a script written by a lawyer for this “response”. As well as, looking increasing angry.
