'Sell a real product': Internet calls out 'Mama June: From Not To Hot' star Pumpkin for her new money-making scheme

GORDON, GEORGIA: Lauryn Efird, popularly known as Pumpkin from 'Mama June: From Not To Hot', has always been adored by viewers for her unwavering support of her sister Honey Boo Boo. She bravely fought for custody of her little sister, rescuing her from their mother June Shannon. Throughout the years, Pumpkin faced numerous challenges, shouldering family responsibilities while raising her own four children.

However, financial struggles plagued her, leading her to explore online avenues for income. Initially met with criticism for soliciting funds for trivial reasons, a recent event has cast doubt on Pumpkin's intentions, leaving fans questioning whether she scammed her supporters.

What is 'Mama June: From Not To Hot' star Pumpkin's new money-making scheme?

'Mama June From Not To Hot' star Pumpkin has unveiled her latest money-making scheme that has left fans questioning its worth. Using Cashapp as her platform, Pumpkin introduced "Pen Pong," a game where followers can purchase a pen for $10, 2 pens for $20, or 3 pens for $25, with an additional $5 for shipping. Each ball is thrown into a cup, and the buyer receives the pen inside the cup where the ball lands. This ball will be thrown live and with Pumpkin from behind the screen for the viewers to see the game. However, the internet has pointed out that customers have no control over which pen they receive, and the prices seem exorbitant for a simple pen. Some fans speculate that the allure lies in the chance to receive a keychain from Pumpkin's new "Sisters Closet" line. Nonetheless, the controversial scheme has sparked debate, leaving many wondering if this is just another attempt to exploit her supporters.
