In the comments section of a YouTube video about a car giveaway, the Ace Family, an American YouTube family from Los Angeles, California, got into serious trouble. In June, the family announced on their YouTube channel that they would choose a winner to get Catherine’s old Tesla. People began criticizing and questioning the family’s legitimacy after the giveaway announcement. Their supporters have accused them of being biased in selecting the winner and being vague throughout the process. For the past month, Austin and Catherine have been missing on YouTube. The Ace family’s most recent video was used to promote a giveaway that they were organizing.
They stated in the video that because Catherine was getting a new car, they would gift Catherine’s old Tesla to one of their fans. To participate, fans merely needed to download the Kick app, follow them on the new streaming service, & tag two friends in the comments. They also went into great detail about it in their YouTube video. The step-by-step directions were also included in the caption of the video and on their Instagram page. The terms and conditions were also mentioned. Fans have since accused the couple of rigging the giveaway, alleging that they were biased in selecting the winner rather than agreeing to a random pick.

In response to a YouTube video about a car giveaway, Ace Family, an American YouTube family from Los Angeles, got into serious trouble.

Their supporters have been accusing them of being biased in selecting the winner and being vague throughout the process. Netizens flocked to YouTube and began commenting on the video. It has already received 168,700 views and 3.7,700 likes. For the past month, Austin and Catherine have been missing on YouTube. The Ace family’s most recent video was used to promote a giveaway that they were holding. They stated in the video that because Catherine was getting a new car, they would gift Catherine’s old Tesla to one of their fans. To participate, fans merely needed to download the Kick app, join them on the new streaming service, & tag two friends in the comments.
They also went into great detail about it in their YouTube video. The step-by-step directions were also included in the caption of the video and on their Instagram page. The terms and conditions were also mentioned. Austin had previously gone live on Kick to explain the contest in greater depth prior to their revealing the winner. They further stated that the winner will be chosen at random and announced on June 25, 2023. Things became tricky at this point. Fans have since accused the couple of rigging the giveaway, alleging that they were biased in selecting the winner rather than agreeing to a random pick. Furthermore, despite selecting the winner, they did not reveal how it was done, according to their supporters and followers. The manner in which the winner was announced gave the impression that it was hand-picked rather than truly random. Furthermore, the Kick broadcast was meant to appropriately reveal the winner, but this did not occur. Catherine and Austin did not announce the winner on their social media accounts or reveal the identity of the winner.
