It's way more than just pushing timelines back. The person took $400k from people without knowing anything about how to provide what those people had already paid for.

I especially liked the "we tested the lamp we sold as 50k lumens to find out it only did 39k". Like, how do you even go setting up a product page for a product whose main selling point you didnt even test before?

That's how most Kickstarters operate. One of my first jobs was at a contract manufacturer that would get hired by ideas people without experiences to make the products reality. Kickstarter campaigns were our bread and butter. Usually they found us after trying it on their own first and failing.
