#Palestine scam

My name is HAMDI AHMED, and I'm a disabled Palestine queer. Tragically, my family's evacuation plans from Gaza were thwarted by the loss of my father, our breadwinner, during the genocide. Recently, my mother fell victim to an airstrike in Deir Al-Balah, leaving me without a home. With no income and relying on the kindness of friends, I urgently need to evacuate to Egypt for safety. Any donation, no matter how small, would make a world of difference. Thank you for your support.
I would stop responding to these, but the sheer amount of people determining they’re not a scam is wild.
As far as I’ve seen, anyone asking for help through asks is a scammer. If you actually need help, please don’t ask through asks. If you do you’re probably going to get buried by scammers.

Hello, am really sorry for sending you private message concerning my request in the ongoing situation in Rafa. The continuous bombardment and the ongoing genocide pose a significant threat to their well-being. What pains me even more is that due to the lack of medications in Gaza, my Mom, who is a type 2 Diabetis patiant and was scheduled for an urgent eye surgery, have had no access to insulin or any medical care for the past 3 months. Some of my family members sought refuge in the southernmost part of Gaza (Rafah) in tents. However, my parents, and sisters have no alternative place to stay, forced to remain in the Nusierat refugee camp, which is now the subject of continuous severe bombardment since christmas started.” Am on my knees requesting for your donations. Please help where possible.
You are a scammer and are literally the scum of the earth

I’ve been calling out this scammer when I see it (anytime someone submits an ask talking about aid for their grandma or mom with “diabetis”, I say some shit) and this was the response I got… LMAO. Question, what does pugah even mean?
Please only donate to real, vetted funds. Generally, assume that a PayPal link is a scam.

I am Kelly, My family is in danger. They are trapped in a city in Gaza called Rafah. They fled there because my grandmother was diagnosed with cancer and the only chemo treatment she could receive was there. Due to a militia that is increasingly taking over the country and bombing hospitals, all of the disabled, sick and elderly had to flea to Rafah to get medical treatment. Hundreds of thousands of Gaza people fled out of Rafah earlier this week after the militia overtook the Gaza military. My family was unable to flee because my grandmother is elderly and sick.
As of yesterday, my grandmother, disabled aunt, aunt who is sick with Malaria and my two teenage girl cousins were trapped at the top of an apartment building that has been overtaken by militia. They are helpless.
My aunts are sick and they have been injured. My two cousins are just children. Please help my family in one of two ways.
you're truly disgusting trying to use GENOCIDE to scam people out of money.
You literally stole your post word for word from this gofundme. link to further proof. eat shit and go fuck yourself. and they blocked within 10 seconds of publishing this lmao, absolutely awful.

so i just found out that people are using palestine as a way to scam people (and i may have accidentally reblogged at least one such scam, it is now deleted. i forgot to take down the fucking account name before i did it, though, sorry.)
for those of you pulling that shit, and i say this as someone who would never wish death on their worst enemy and someone whose entire system is generally in the same boat:
you deserve to fucking die.

!!BEWARE OF SCAMMER ASKS IN YOUR INBOX INCLUDING THE FISHY PALESTINE ASKS!!
Ever since the #Free Palestine movement, unfortunately some really disgusting folks are using these times as a way to take advantage of people's kindness by pretending to be Palestinian victims and refugees.
If you've been getting these kind of asks in your inbox something along the lines of "Palestine" and a BIG tangent of their life but the blog looks fishy and the profile pic looks stolen? yeah that's too good to be true.
literally no actual person that genuinely needs help is going to directly ask a random person like you in your inbox, a real person that needs help makes a post in general with all of their donation links and never directly asks anyone.
Also majority of the time these scammers will steal real victim's pictures to make it look legit!!! Don't fall for it!!! Donate to actual places and real people!!! PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!

Look. If you send me an ask asking for me to either donate to you or to ask other people to donate, I will delete the ask. Not because I’m heartless, but because I will one hundred percent assume that you’re just another scammer trying to profit off of the suffering of Palestinians.

GUYS I'M CACKLING, LOOK WHAT A PALESTINE GOFUNDME SCAM ACCOUNT SENT ME AFTER I CALLED THEM OUT- (btw please look at the entire post so you're aware of the situation, more below)
Tumblr media
Breaking News! Filthy scammer gets angry they got caught!
I hope every last penny they've stolen is wiped from their account. They won't even see that because the Tumblr is gone but, the message is the same for all scammers. Fuck off, get help. You're sick and disgusting.
Here is the real GoFundMe page
Scammers on here (and possibly on other platforms, but I simply don't know for sure) continue to steal the story and images found on this GoFundMe and instead link personal PayPal accounts through linktree's titled "GoFundMe".
From my observations they mostly target ask boxes, and literally just copy paste their pinned post, which again, is just the stolen info from the real GoFundMe with the names changed. They also reblog Palestine related posts to try and make their blog more believable.
It is possible that other stolen stories may begin circulating
I've only seen Yasmeen's info being used, but others may start trying to use other families experiences as they start getting caught(if they haven't started already). That's why it's very important to investigate things like this. They spread like wildfire, and that's how scammers take advantage of real people in need.
I would say to tread very carefully and look for inconsistencies or things that seem suspicious. Like the linktree link. I have copy/pasted the entire stories into a search engine(which is how I found the real GoFundMe) to check as well. There are many more posts (much more informational, and widespread than this one) on the topic, and I ask you to please check them out. Please stay informed and aware of potential scammers, and think before you reblog!!
Friends, please spread this around, read up on this if you can.

Hello, I am from Gaza, due to the shortage of medicine in Gaza, my mother who is a type 1 diabetic and was supposed to undergo urgent eye surgery, has not been able to get insulin or any medical care for the past three months. . Some members of my family fled to the southernmost part of Gaza (Rafah) in tents. But my parents and sisters have nowhere else to stay. They are forced to stay in the Nuseirat refugee camp, which has been bombed since the beginning of Christmas. "I am on my knees asking for your donations. Please help me. where you can.

Tsk tsk tsk, another scammer. For the love of all that is good stop fucking doing this. It surprises me that people can go this low
Here’s a post that helps you identify scams (this is a Palestine one obv)
For the link I provided, you can go to the account. She is a scam buster, so if you aren’t sure if something is a scam or not you can ask her.
Don’t let them take advantage of your kindness!

Please be careful of scammers such as the person mentioned above, they’re taking advantage of a fucking genocide, which as disgusting as it is unfortunately isn’t the first time this has happened. This person specifically creates new accounts every once in a while and copy-pastes the same ask about their mother having kidney failure.
Please verify any accounts that ask you for donations before you do anything.

Goal: $700
This is most likely a scam
Blog 1 day old
Reblogs are sort of random which no clear theme
Has reblogged things about Palestine, but it has no consistent theme and any posting had stopped 14 hours ago
Other blogs have received this ask and seem to believe it may be a scam
Apparently, you can't actually use Paypal in Gaza? I didn't know that until I looked it up and apparently Paypal wont offer full services to people with Palestinian accounts (yikes)
Feel free to debunk this if you wish, but I find it very distasteful to be using the active massacre and genocide of a whole people for a scam, especially when the money gained is being taken from people who are in dire need.
