Ridiculous that this is a controversial take, but you have to stop reporting fundraisers and blogs as scams when you don’t actually know they’re scams. No, “multiple people contacted me like this” is not proof that something is a scam. And yes, there are scams out there to be wary of, but do you know what allows the scams to flourish? When the legitimate fundraisers and blogs, vetted rigorously by unpaid activists, keep getting deleted without cause by GoFundMe and Tumblr, because people baselessly reported them. Scammers exploit the confusion to slip between the cracks and impersonate people. Reporting legitimate and likely-legitimate fundraises literally creates the conditions in which scammers thrive.
You don’t have to donate to or share fundraisers if you’re not comfortable and confident in the veracity. But you have a responsibility not to spread misinformation about them, either.
