Twitch streamer Kylee “justfoxii” Carter revealed that a stalker recently set her car on fire, causing an uproar in the streaming community.
Stalking is, unfortunately, a very common risk associated with getting big on Twitch. Felix “xQc” Lengyel has moved several times to avoid fans attempting to break into his home, and Imane “Pokimane” Anys has reported similar incidents. Kaitlyn “Amouranth” Siragusa has been stalked at multiple conventions and at home, which is why other female streamers like Sweet Anita refuse to go to in-person events.
The most recent victim of this type of scary behavior is justfoxii. In a YouTube video, justfoxii told her fans that a fan found her home and set her car on fire.

What happened to justfoxii?
justfoxii seemed rattled as she discussed what exactly went down with her stalker. She informed fans that the man was arrested and she was currently safe. But she was still shaken up.
For the past year, justfoxii said that she’s been dealing with stalker-related problems. It has caused her to reduce the number of streams and videos she’s produced, admitting that she’s been “drained” from everything.
According to justfoxii, she got a call from her mother while on vacation informing her that someone had caught her car on fire. Checking security cameras from her phone, justfoxii saw her car completely on fire.
“I couldn’t believe I was watching my car, which I worked so hard for, just burn,” she said. “And for somebody to take that from me is very hurtful. I will never be able to understand that.”
She watched the man put a brick and some pot on her hood and then “walk away casually” while it was set ablaze. Her car was engulfed in flames and even spread to her fence and home, where her mom and animals were. This left justfoxii “traumatized” beyond explanation, especially after hearing that the man traveled 700 miles to do this to her.
“I never thought when I started streaming back in 2015 that something like this would happen to me,” she said.
Despite the trauma, justfoxii said she will be back to streaming soon. She wants to start “grinding” again but is not feeling a lot of inspiration due to the dangerous stalking. Luckily, she’s felt a lot of support from most of her fans and is hoping to see them again soon.
