xQc left shocked after fan donates a staggering amount during his charity for LA wildfires livestream

Twitch and Kick streamer Felix "xQc" was left shocked after receiving a four-figure donation during his Los Angeles wildfires charity livestream. At the one-hour-19-minute mark of the broadcast, xQc was reacting to TikTok videos when a viewer named "Black Cat Green Eye" donated $8,888 to the cause with no message attached.

The former Overwatch pro was taken aback when he noticed this and immediately began verifying whether the donation amount was legitimate:

"Wait, what?! Brother... $8,888 donation? What?! With no comment? Dude, I've got to double-check. Hold on. I really got to double-check this for validity. Notification of payment, hold on. I'm not going to leak it, but..."

According to xQc, the $8,888 donation was genuine. However, the content creator claimed that the person donated the money to the "wrong place" because the funds were transferred to his personal account rather than the charity account:

"This guy is legit. Guys, this guy is legit! Yeah, that's insane! Hello?! 'It doesn't say on the top left (The charity donation goal meter).' Yeah because he donated it to the wrong place. If he wanted to donate to the charity, it's at the bottom. He donated it to my personal account."

While assuring his fanbase that he wasn't "scamming" them, the French-Cadian personality stated:

"Yo, by the way, I'm not trying to scam you. I'm donating more. Okay? If you donate, like, three bucks with the same ID, so send PayPal, and then you tell me that it was for the charity, I will transfer it over. I will pay the taxes on it. All good! Or you can charge back. But otherwise, boom! 8,000 stones! Massive! 8,000! You didn't have to, but everyone, that is absolutely massive! Boom! 8,000 t-shirts, 800 houses... thank you!"

A few moments later, the Twitch streamer received another $8 donation from the person who gave $8,888, informing him that the funds were for charity. He responded:

"'Yes, it was for charity, MB (My bad).' Wait, really?! Dude, I got you! That's massive!"
