Brittany Dawn
Texas-based influencer Brittany Dawn began her Instagram career as a full-on #fitchick, sharing sunny snaps of smoothie bowls, healthy meals, workout plans, and impressive befores-and-afters of her fitness journey. Life was good. Then she asked people to pay her hundreds of dollars for personalized diet and exercise programs, e-books, and online coaching sessions. Spoiler alert: people did not get what they were promised, if they got anything at all. She was confronted by angry followers for a bit but has since transitioned into #Christianfluencing, i.e. spreading the word of Jesus.
