Leonel Moreno, a Venezuelan TikTok influencer known for mocking the U.S. immigration system and advising others on how to exploit it, has come under scrutiny. With over 502,000 followers on TikTok, 16,000 on Instagram, and his own YouTube channel, Moreno has been criticized for his actions, including offering $20,000 to retrieve his banned TikTok account and allegedly shopping for guns. He has admitted to attempting to settle in Canada before the U.S. due to the latter's handouts. Child services are investigating him, and he has faced backlash from his compatriots, calling him an 'utter embarrassment and disgrace.' Moreno, who also goes by the name Capichi, has been banned on Instagram and TikTok, resulting in the loss of millions of followers.
