A Miss Bumbum contestant has been disqualified for trying to cheat the system.

Livia Santos, who was representing Tocantins, is being accused of cheating to get more votes. But the former contestant just feels robbed and upset. She has accused the organization of trying to extort her, saying that the organizers asked her for money so that she could win.

Although she is being accused of hacking the system, she says that preventing access to automated software is not enough. And she said that either way, the organizers are manipulating the data. For example, she was watching the contestant who is in first place, Claudia Alende, and she suddenly got 6,000 votes at once.

She said she contacted the organizers, who were surprised about what she had discovered.

Santos would also like the organization to prove that she was hacking the system.

"I want him to prove that I was hacking," she said about organizer Cacau Oliver. "I have employees who have been voting for me since two months ago."

Oliver said he is not worried about Santos' threat to press charges. He called it "normal" for her to feel aggrieved.

Before being disqualified, she was 50,000 votes ahead of Alende.

Livia said that what she was doing was buying votes, but that Oliver knew she was doing this.

"My husband gave his own workroom 17 computers in there with people voting for me," she said.

But Oliver denies having prior knowledge of Santos' vote-buying.

"If she paid for an Internet cafe, that is already fraud," Oliver said. "She bought votes and I do not agree with that."

For Oliver, it was an easy choice to eliminate her. He wanted to avoid bad press, and he also felt that doing this was what was fairest to the other contestants.

Alende was also accused of voting fraud, but she will remain in the competition. After investigating Alende, she was found to have not bought votes. Instead, she is doing well because of her large social media following.
