An employee of MrBeast is addressing claims made by a former coworker that the YouTube star engaged in fake giveaways and produced unauthentic content.

Earlier this week, a video published by DogPack404, a former employee of MrBeast, branded the YouTube creator a "fraud" and accused him of lying about the legitimacy of his videos. He also alleged MrBeast's company "rigged videos," ran "illegal lotteries," and "sold fake signatures."

Early Monday morning, a current employee at the company, who claims he fired DogPack404 for "erratic behavior," debunked the rumors in a lengthy post on X, formerly known as Twitter.

After responding to every allegation aimed at MrBeast, the current employee, whose Twitter handle is @Chucky, rejected DogPack404's claims in a lengthy rant.

"We do not fake giveaways, I have been hands on with some of them and have personally been the person to connect winners with our accounting department to get paid," Chucky wrote. "I could keep going but I don’t want this to be to long."

Chucky concluded his response by shedding light on the man behind the DogPack404 YouTube account, referring to him by what appears to be his real name.

"Dawson himself said on Reddit that he was on shrooms and weed when filming, which might explain some of the made up stuff," he explained. "Dawson was only employed from March 25th 2024 and was let go on April 19th 2024. He was on a 90 day trial and we ended it early and paid him out to June 25th as we guaranteed the 90 days of pay so he could transition into a new job."
