I Want To Spread Awareness About The Scams That Have Been Going Around Tumblr Taking Advantage Of Innocent

I want to spread awareness about the scams that have been going around Tumblr taking advantage of innocent people’s suffering.

These scams operate by finding GoFundMe’s and copy-pasting the stories onto a tumblr post where they will link their PayPal account at the bottom for people to send money too.

They’ll send out DMs and messages to people’s inboxes asking them to donate saying that the donation link is in the pinned post.

These scam blogs are always just a few days or weeks old and they retweet pro-Palestinian posts to make themselves look more legitimate. If you attempt to confront them about it they will instantly block you.

I’ve received a large amount of these scam messages in the past week, a few of which had a concerning amount of notes, and want to raise people’s awareness that way they people who actually need help can receive it.

This is the link to a longer post I’ve made with a few ways to identify possible scams:
