A Kick streamer has been banned by its co-founder when he allegedly dined and dashed a homeless woman. The streamer, who goes by Dumbdumbjeez, seemingly entered a contest on the streaming platform and took out an alleged homeless woman named Mable on a date.
As per the rules of dine and dash, he left the woman to pay the bill. A video of the livestream went viral on X (formerly Twitter) and reached the platform's co-founder, Bijan Tehrani. Tehrani mentioned being "disappointed" and banned Dumbdumbjeez. He also announced that the prize money of $50,000 would be given to the woman in the video.
He wrote,
"This pathetic and now banned streamer did this while trying to win a contest for $50k. I’m disappointed this happened on Kick and we’ve got $50k for this lady if anyone can connect us."
Per the video, Dumbdumbjeez went for dinner with Mabel and was billed $76. When the bill was brought, he told her he had to get his wallet from the car and then left the restaurant, never to return.
The video received a lot of backlash from netizens who called out what the Kick streamer did. An X user wrote,
"I hate this new generation of streams."
"That's the nastiest thing a human can do," penned another.
Many also asked the streaming platform to ban the streamer.

Following his ban from the streaming platform, Dumbdumbjeez took to his X handle to speak up in his defense. In the clip, he alleged that Mabel was aware of the dine and dash prank and claimed that he had given her the money beforehand.
He titled the video "THE TRUTH ON WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY ON KICK."
"Before streaming, I talked to the female. I talked to the lady, which is Mabel, cause as you could see when I sparked my stream I went right towards Mabel bro. Like I seen her before I got dropped off before I sparked my stream."

"I literally had the conversation about her what we gonna do you feel me? I gave her the money already beforehand to let her know what we was gonna do. That's why I said I was going to leave her and come back," he continued.
Dumbdumbjeez further argued that he is a content creator and that his idea of dining and dashing with a homeless woman was only for marketing. However, it came out in a "bad way." He also admitted that he was disqualified from the contest and even banned from Kick.
