I feel that is my duty as member of the read.cash to report scammers that intent to impersonate and pretend to be someone's else only to have generous people to fund their fake campaigns on read.cash, I hope this article help to elucidate users to not fall on scammers games only to hurt the platform, let's help the environment to stay clean reporting flagged scams.
One thing that I hate more in the world are people who pretend to be someone else in order to benefit from people benevolence, using their good heart to steal from them, I was just browsing the site when I saw this, boosted on top of the platform "Help to Save my Eyes" and immediately that call my attention, last week I warned about that account but seems that still active, and I also saw on the news because was widely known due to severity of Marta burns and the consequent campaign to help save the eyes. Marta that's a Spain citizen was in U.S when her accident happened, she was doing a cosmetic soap when caustic soda get in her eyes, causing severe damages to her corneas. Her mother who lives in Spain was unable to travel to United States due restricted measures to protect people from COVID-19, took them to open a GoFundMe campaign to save her eyes.
The GoFundMe campaign raised more than €250,000 with an initial goal of €75,000 and all this can be proved on theGoFundMe campaign website where also can be found the contact details of the original Anna Gongora, or in Linkedin website where she have a profile to legitimate her person and doesn't have any reason to conduct more campaigns in other sites, this account on read.cash and other platform are fake!
Marta is laying on bed, facing problems and in risk to lose her eyes, the family is suffering and this fake account @AnnaGongora is using her story to benefit from it, it's time to stop funding campaigns that are dubious and clearly to play with people feelings.
