The ousted GOP Rep. announced his latest money-making scheme on Cameo in a recent video shared to X, formerly Twitter.

Former New York Republican Representative George Santos was widely mocked after he announced his latest money-making scheme on Cameo on X, formerly Twitter.

Santos made headlines recently for joining Cameo, a site that allows fans to send a video request to celebrities to send personalized video messages to fans' friends, loved ones, or to the fans themselves.


Now he's announced he will create personalized video messages on the platform—for $500 a pop—dressed as "Santos Claus" to commemorate the holiday season.

"Santos-Claus is coming to town!" Santos announced, sharing a video in which he shows off a Santa Claus-inspired hat and beard and refers to himself as “the OG, original sassiest person in the world.”

He added:

“Actually, the OG Claus. I don’t care what you say, I don’t know about no Santa.”
“This is all about Santos Claus. So if you’re looking for a sassy, awesome Christmas message from yours truly, make sure you don’t miss out."
"Limited time only. Bye.”

You can see his message below.

Santos was mocked immediately.



After a damning House Ethics Committee report revealed he spent thousands in campaign funds on a variety of non-campaign-related items, including OnlyFans, Botox, and trips to Atlantic City and the Hamptons, Santos announced he will not run for reelection.

The report alleged Santos had committed "knowing and willful violations" of House financial disclosure rules and filed "false or incomplete reports" with the Federal Election Commission (FEC).

The 56-page report offered extensive evidence indicating Santos’ misuse of campaign funds for personal purposes, fraudulent activities toward donors, and submission of false or incomplete campaign finance and financial disclosure reports.

It further accuses Santos of exploiting his House candidacy for personal financial gain through a series of deceptive tactics, including lies about his background and experience to constituents, donors, and staff.
