Armstrong claims that he was threatened into transferring the title of his 2018 Lamborghini Huracan Performante to Carlos Diaz.
“Defendant Diaz warned Armstrong that he had killed people before, and implied that the same fate could befall Armstrong,” per the suit.
Diaz never returned the car, the suit says, adding: “Armstrong is not aware of the Lamborghini’s current location or ownership status.”
Furthermore, the lawsuit alleges that the six people violated the Georgia Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. The defendants have “engaged in a pattern of racketeering by engaging in a series of acts, schemes, and transactions that were all committed with the intent to extort the Lamborghini and money from Armstrong.”
The YouTuber claimed that Diaz contacted Armstrong’s wife and threatened his life unless he paid $3.2 million and issued a public apology.
The defendants also took Armstrong’s Twitter account in order to harass, embarrass, and intimidate him publicly, he said.
Armstrong is not the only one filing lawsuits.
