Craig Douglas, who is better known by his stage name Nepenthez, has responded to his brother claims of a scam and a fake mortgage in a video that is no longer public
In the video, the YouTuber talked about the accusations and said that he was not guilty. After a TikTok video made by Nepenthez’s brother, John Douglas, went viral, the accusations began to spread on social media.
In the video, which has since been taken down, John said that Nepenthez was running a scam and a fake mortgage. He also said that Craig didn’t help him get his own YouTube channel up and running.
Nepenthez said that his brother’s claims in the viral video that was taken down were “harmful” in his response video. He said he didn’t want to talk about it on social media because it wasn’t the place to talk about personal things.

“A year and a half ago, I had to take my brother to court because he was harassing me and abusing me and manipulating me, and it was difficult to deal with,” Craig said in his now-deleted response video. “The final straw was when he started shouting at my kids.”
Nepenthez speaks about court case
In his response video, Nepenthez also talked about the court case. This was after he ran a website where gamers could bet online currency. In 2016, the BBC reported that the YouTuber pleaded guilty to breaking the UK’s Gambling Act and was fined.

Nepenthez said in the video, “I didn’t lie about anything in court.” “I was convicted for facilitating and promoting gambling without a license. One conviction was for facilitating gambling without a license, and another was for promoting gambling without a license. Both carried ยฃ8000 fines, and I was also ordered to pay court fees of ยฃ80000.”
