What's stopping me from setting up a gofundme page that

>>1564328
Nobody will donate much to a complete stranger

Your parenting.

nothing apart from criminal law (fraud).

>>1564411
How is that possible though?

>>1564435
well, if you want to get the money out of gofundme there's a paper trail to your person. so you're banking on nobody getting suspicious and alerting authorities. it's a fair bet, you know the risk, you know the benefits. the choice is yours.

>>1564343
Not entirely true. You'd have to pull off an intricate and touching story to get widespread attention and sympathy.

Then >>1564411 happens.

OP go read some articles on people trying to pull this shit, see what happens, then reconsider.

>>1564454
What if I make some kind of proxy bank to store the money. It'll work with a story that involves being a third world shit hole.

>>1564467
What do I even look for? I google'd Gofundme scams and it was just people creating pages like "please gib me dats, i want a new car". That's hardly a scam..

>>1564570
Add "fraud arrest" to your search. You're not looking for ongoing scams, you're looking for those who got caught.

>>1564328

Your conscience.

Or are you like Shillary and have no soul?

>>1564328
LITERALLY nothing

I know a guy who pulled that off by pretending that his niece had cancer. The image of the girl was pulled from the net and was literally reverse-searchable

5k in 30 days.

Well not me PERSONALLY, but this guy I know.
Him and her GOT. IT. ON.
WHOOOOHOOOO!

It could work if you pretend to be a cute girl or a little kid. Or say you're gay. People love fags.

Start a black lives matter fundraiser to help repair black neighborhoods destroyed by racist white looters

okay what about if you kickstart a device in which the idea is incredible and it solves a problem many people are currently having. it works as advertised but theres a fundamental flaw that will definitely receive negativity. is it immoral to shill a shitty product that has potential to make me a ton of money?

>>1564491
if you're dumb enough to think you can scam people without already having an air tight way to get away with it, you deserve to go to jail when they catch you for it. which they will.

>>1564328
The fact that if you did, you'd be a shitcunt.

I know someone who went to prison for doing something very similar.
