Remember when Gilbert Arenas “quit” Instagram recently after he made a bunch of really tasteless comments about the Flint water crisis? So much for that!

He’s back on IG using the name @gilbertarenasthebadguy, and earlier this week, he used the social media site to talk about the time he scammed a strip club out of $40,000. If we had to guess, Arenas is just trolling like he usually does here, and he didn’t actually do this. But who knows? Maybe he’s telling the truth (and is dumb enough to talk about it). Here’s the post he put up with a full explanation on how he scammed the strip club by using his Black Card:

Here’s the caption since there’s a good chance this post will disappear before long:
