Streamer RaKai has reportedly been hit with a two-year ban from Twitch.

During a recent stream inside of a Walmart store, the 17-year-old was seen picking up a bouquet of flowers and handing it to a woman as a gift, apparently without paying.

RaKai shared a screenshot from his Twitch dashboard notifying him of the ban to his X account on Tuesday (Dec. 2). The message listed "Illegal Activities" as the cause of his 730 day suspension, set to end on Dec. 2, 2027.

Complex reached out to Twitch for comment on the alleged ban and will update this story if we hear back.

RaKai isn’t the only streamer to get into some hot water over alleged theft lately.

Nina Lin was recently banned from Twitch after some users pointed out that she didn’t scan a steak while using a Target self-checkout station in a recent stream.

Lin addressed the supposed theft further into the stream, saying, “I'm telling you, bro, even if it was the steaks … ain't nobody missing no fucking money, bitch. Calm the fuck down.”

She continued, “No, Target is not losing no type of fucking money from some steaks, bitch. Fucking bum ass steaks, I don't give a shit. Matter of fact, put this on Twitter, too: Your mom's a bitch, she was a bitch, and happy holidays, all you hoes is bitches … I don't give a fuck. Happy holidays, whores.”

Lin also claimed she stole shoes, saying, “I got these from Target too, guys. Guess how much I paid? Free-99. Get mad, bitch.”

The 24-year-old seems to be taking it all in stride based on recent comments on her Instagram Story.

“At least we copped a pic with chat in Aspen,” she wrote on Tuesday. “Let em dick ride mis mad they got rage baited.”

She continued, “BIG BANNED AGAIN [laughing emojis]. W RAGE BAIT [laughing emojis] I hope these hoes stay madd.”
