IANAL, but can't MrBeast sue the ad creator company for damaging his reputation?

Good luck with that, I guess This company is gone before misterB can finish writing his lawsuit, and with it all the scammed money. But I guess there is some law forcing platforms to not promote scams, I hope, at least in some countries.
