    I would assume Kickstarter would have some kind of funder protection or something? I know it’s always at your own risk to fund projects, but this clearly reeks of scamming.

      Kickstarter doesn’t release the funds to a project until the goal is hit, and if it doesn’t reach the goal they don’t get anything. I’m not sure if they collect the money from funders before the target is hit or not though.

    Gotta admire the drive. Now apply that ambition to something legit and worthwhile.
