One angry ticker holder is taking a $100 million class action and is trying to get others, who were left angry when the festival did not meet the high expectations it had set out, to get involved also. The festival was promoted as a luxury event held on a private island in the Bahamas, however, when attendees arrived, it was far from what their expectations had been.Expectation v. Reality for the biggest scamming festival in the 21st Century #FyreFestival@WNFIV @FyreFraud pic.twitter.com/75SZb6iDdm

The claim also goes on to say that both Billy and Ja Rule warned A-list performers not to attend apparently knowing it would not be a success.
Relieved to share that all guest are safe, and have been sent the form to apply for a refund. Our deepest apologies... #fyrefestival
