Sotheby’s, Paris Hilton and Justin Bieber sued over Bored Ape NFTs

Sotheby’s is being sued by investors over an auction of more than 100 images of cartoon monkeys.

The 279-year-old auction house has been named as a defendant in a lawsuit alongside celebrities including Paris Hilton, Justin Bieber and Madonna who promoted Bored Ape Yacht Club non-fungible tokens (NFTs), a series of 10,000 collectible, digital monkeys.

This scam was so blatant it’s hard to believe it could be pulled off.
