Oh, karma, some times you are just too sweet!
Matt Colvin and his brother, Noah, from Hixson, Tennessee, set out to profit off of the panic over the spread of coronavirus. Noah collected over 18,000 bottles of hand sanitizer and Matt tried to sell them on Amazon from anywhere between $8 – $70

Now that the state attorney general is investigating the two for price gouging, Matt’s suddenly found a conscience and says he’s, quote, “exploring ways to donate all the supplies.”
