Internet celebrity "Hawk tuah girl" Harry Welch revealed that he was investigated by the FBI for his meme project

On May 21st, internet celebrity Harry Welch (also known as "Hawk tuah girl") revealed in her latest podcast that she had been investigated by the FBI and SEC for promoting HAWK memes. After its launch, the meme quickly plummeted by 90% and was referred to as an "exit scam" by several cryptocurrency commentators. Welch stated that the investigative agency checked her phone and conducted inquiries, but ultimately concluded that she was not at fault. She admitted that she lacked knowledge about cryptocurrency, trusted the wrong people, and felt guilty for causing damage to her fans' investments. Welch claimed that she only charged marketing fees and did not profit from the currency itself.
