Kanye West failed to take the White House in 2020, but somebody didn’t fail to take YE for some of his campaign funds. According to TMZ, Ye’s campaign committee states a fraud scheme swindled the campaign out of needed funds and instead paid someone’s credit card bill.

Kanye 2020 reported to the Federal Election Commission someone that who was not a part of the committee stole nearly $4,000 to pay off their personal credit card bills.

An investigation revealed the funds were stolen over three separate transactions between December and February. The campaign was unable to recover the funds from the First Bank of Wyoming.

The FEC and Kanye 2020 are working to find out who swiped the funds in order to make an arrest.

It’s been almost two years since Kanye West unsuccessfully ran for president during the 2020 election. His run was filled with controversial moments which include accusations that his campaign was secretly run by Republicans and reports that it violated fundraising practices. The rapper himself reportedly said that the run “cost him his marriage” to his now ex-wife Kim Kardashian. Well, it turns out that his campaign cost him more than his marriage. According to his committee, the run also cost him a few thousand dollars thanks to a fraud scheme that was executed against Kanye.

TMZ reports that Kanye’s campaign committee filed a letter with the Federal Election Commission on Tuesday. In the letter, they allege that someone who had access to the campaign funds stole the money to pay off credit bills. The committee says someone who was not affiliated with the campaign took $3,999 in total through three separate transactions that were made between December 2021 and February 2022.

“It has been determined that the disbursement for $1474 on 12/9/21, $1280 on 2/8/22 and $1245 on 2/22/22 was an external fraud situation,” the letter reads according to Insider. “After investigating, it was determined that an individual not connected with the campaign accessed a campaign account to pay his own credit card.” The latter later adds that Kanye was not reimbursed by the First Bank of Wyoming, where the campaign’s account was held, for the allegedly stolen funds.

“The bank was unable to reverse the transactions at issue due to the way they were presented for payment,” the campaign wrote.
