The Pokemon card-collecting craze among online influencers is nothing new. Many big names, including MoistCr1TiKaL, Logan Paul, and many more have shared their enthusiasm for collecting Pokemon cards and also instances where he had to lose a lot of money due to them. Ex-Twitch streamer Ludwig has also joined that list.

However, compared to others, Ludwig’s loss was much more insignificant. But being the guy that he is, Ludwig not only just got scammed, he actually fell for it willingly. In his recent trip to Japan, Ludwig has been exploring the eccentric alleys of the country with his friend CDawgVA. But the Mogul was clearly not prepared for the craziness that the country has to offer.

Being a tourist hotspot of the world, there are a lot of traps around the streets of Japan that can put a dent in any unsuspecting tourist’s pockets.

Unfortunately, the beloved Youtuber, Ludwig, got to know about this in a bad way. Recently he visited a special pokemon shop on his Japan trip. The specialty of this shop was that they exclusively sell pokemon mystery packs. Unlike normal Pokemon packs, these Mystery packs only have one card. However, the shop claims there is a higher chance of getting a rare card from these packs.

This shop also offers to buy the card back if the buyer gets a rare card and is willing to sell it off. Ludwig fell for the promise willingly and bought one of the mystery packs. But disappointment quickly spread across his face when he opened the pack, just to discover that the card that he got was valued way less than what he paid for. 

Ludwig bought the pack for 3000 Yen, which is equivalent to something around $22. However, when he went back to the store to sell his card, he found out the card he found sold only for $4. Ludwig was awestruck by the brilliance of the whole system, all he could manage to say was, “I Just Got F*cking Scammed.” He ended the video on a note by warning the people not to get scammed like him and to just buy Pokemon cards.
