11 November update:

This is a scam. I've condensed this post so it is easier to read.

Current accounts: fuzzychildlight || deliciouslightpenguin || bitchygardenarcade || magnificentdragonengineer (blog is still up but the post is gone)

Past accounts: androgynousrunawaytree || deepesttragedyprince || atomiccollect29r || androgynousmusicpeace || generousreviewladdy || scrumptiouswastelandphantom || shinytastemakerphantom ||

Please report and inform anyone you see reblogging from them (report -> unlawful uses -> phishing. explain that the blog is not legitimate and their post is using the same story by past scam accounts). Check scambuster blogs like kyra45 for guides and updated list of scams.

Also as @/nabulsi mentioned in the notes, be aware of this profile picture as well as a few others. They have been reused multiple times when a scammer makes another account:

GFM posts are very rarely scams, and there are people who thoroughly vet them! Please take your time by donating and sharing these verified fundraisers instead.

sure! just let me know which name i should send it to: doreen, dorine, conzolata, rose, linet, or kezia? the donation links in each one of these reblogs of your single donation post are different, and some have been taken down, so i wanted to double check 💖 i wouldn't want to send money to a sick woman in the midst of a genocidal campaign only to have that money end up in the pockets of a scammer 🥺🙏💖

[kyra45]

Anon the blog you’re having trouble spelling is shinytastemakerphantom. Hope that helps! I searched the ask until I found it.

Anyway not vetted/verified. It’s a scam.

Hey everybody, this is a known scammer. I'm going to post this in the free Palestine tags just in case someone knows better than me, but as far as I'm aware, this blog is a scam. Watch out, please.

I can't find much about this blog but signs point to it not being genuine. This blog is two days old.

First thing I did was image search the photo of insulin. There are at least three different posts with different names with this image, the oldest being from July, by a Marystella Majuma, and then the same blog posted as a Lavender Hamad Namisi.

This image has been used by a confirmed scammer. There's no link to the vetting!

TLDR please be careful about this one, things seem a bit fishy.

I'm sorry, you've obviously mistaken me for someone who hasn't received this scam ask before. @kyra45 we've got another one.

[scam-alerts]

🚨Scammer Alert🚨

Post updated 12/13/24

New accounts running this scam:

Banned accounts running this scam: @profoundcollectionangel > @supportgazalady + perfectlythoughtfulbanana

Evidence of them being scam accounts:

Stories are near if not 100% identical. (hint: mother has LS)

They repeatedly change their 'real name' (as seen below.)

Accounts reported to also be run by this scammer: fuzzychildlight now qualitycherryblossombluebird deliciouslightpenguin now weepingwerewolfdestiny also maximumdinosaurbouquet (12/2/24) magnificentdragonengineer (blog is still up but the post is gone)

Reason(s) why it is to be believed this same scammer is running @deliciouslightpenguin>weepingwerewolfdestiny: -Claims to need Insulin. -Claims to be a Palestinian from Gaza. -'Vetted and verified' but will not say by who. -And, going through various reblogs every week up until their original posting date, you'll notice that- like the image above with the accounts listed above, they have a very bad habit of changing their name and using the name Alfaat.

This same thing can be seen with @qualitycherryblossombluebird:

Comparisons between weepingwerewolfdestiny and maximumdinosaurbouquet:

Again, notice the name Alfaat.

Previous/banned blogs that ran this same scam were: androgynousrunawaytree > deepesttragedyprince > atomiccollect29r > androgynousmusicpeace > generousreviewladdy > scrumptiouswastelandphantom > shinytastemakerphantom > holywerewolfgiver

The names they used on PayPal.me in the past have been: Betty Nekesa - Masudi Salim Akinyi Salome - Nestor Sally Jane Kisiangani - Diana Achieng Mercy Siomi

supportgazalady - Masudi Salim (12/8/24)

weepingwerewolfdestiny - Masudi Salim ( https://archive.ph/MRDiZ 12/2/24)

maximumdinosaurbouquet - Diana Achieng (connection) ( https://archive.ph/6QrMT 12/2/24)

Diana Achieng is being used by @foggyruinsblog

Hi there! Sorry to bother, but hoping for a second opinion from someone with keener eyes than me. I'm seeing a blogger @/furryreviewearthquake making the rounds who is sharing a PayPal link instead of a GoFundMe. They have the classic "need insulin, living in half of a church" story, and the style of url with three random words always smells scammy to me. I looked up the name on the PayPal, Alice Simtei, and found another person concerned of a scam. This blogger also used to share a paypal under the name Lavine Akoth, which apparently used to be shared by the known scammer @/shinytastemakerphantom. I'm not keen on calling them a scam until I'm more sure. If you have a chance, can you weigh in? Thank you so much for the hard work you do btw

source the blog has stolen their text partly from:

So if anyone else sees a blog with the “half of a church” story that isn’t using this link it’s a scam blog. The scammers may often copy the names with a PayPal, but they aren’t the gfm owner nor related/affiliated.

($70,694 raised of $80,000 goal)

The church story is also partly referred to in my guide on spotting scams where someone’s pretending to be Palestinian, and also insulin is referred to in the same guide. Since both are commonly stolen by scam accounts.
