The video goes into some detailed allegations of actually illegal practices taking place with a lot of their contests and giveaways, such as obfuscating the "no purchase necessary" clause in their promo copies, making it unreasonably hard to enter the contest without making a purchase, "fixing" the contest so that some prizes go out to friends/family of the company instead of outside entrants, forging autographed merch, etc.
He provides a lot of evidence, largely including video footage and screenshots of the exact things he's alleging. In fact, just about every claim he makes in the video is backed up by a clip or a screenshot. Whether or not those prove the claims he's making is one thing, but to say he's not provided any coherent evidence wouldn't really be accurate.
Did you watch the video? I know it's long and not the most entertaining thing in the world, but I'm getting the feeling that you're running on assumptions here, because a lot of the blanks you have are filled in by the video.
