FB Co-Founder Tags Tesla, SpaceX As Musk Scams

Apparently, Mark Zuckerberg isn't the only Facebook founder that's wary of Elon Musk.

Facebook co-founder and Asana CEO Dustin Moskovitz took a jab at the billionaire on Thursday, Grace Kay reported for Business Insider, saying Musk is a scammer.

Moskovitz said people often argue Musk makes up for his antics through the value his companies Tesla and SpaceX bring to the world, but the Asana CEO said he's not sure the billionaire's success is legitimate.



"The point is I don't really see these companies as seeing Musk as a genius or at least don't give nearly as much credit to him as others do," Moskovitz said. "If they were really built on outward lies, rather than just self-deceptions (rose-colored glasses), then we should really see them as scams he got away with."


Moskovitz said that he believes Musk accelerated the development of EVs by one to two years at most and he thinks the Tesla CEO might actually have delayed it by "overpromising."

Moskovitz said that Musk attracted customers, workers, and funding through his lofty promises for EV ranges, as well as autonomous driving and automated assembly plants.


Moskovitz pointed to a recent report from Reuters that claimed Tesla, through a direct order from Musk, had exaggerated the expected range for its EVs on the vehicle's dashboard.
