Hello there, am sorry for stepping in your inbox without your permission. Am having a request concerning my family. My family is still living in the Gaza Strip, and like so many other families, their lives are hell right now. My family includes my father and mother, my sisters Nisreen and Yasmine and my brother Anwar. My dad is 77 years old and my mother, who I call the soul of my soul and the balm of my life, is 75 years old and confined to a wheelchair because of a war injury when she was young. My brother Anwar and my sister Yasmine suffer from diabetes mellitus type 1… They need insulin urgently and regularly. Any lack of insulin puts their lives in danger, as what happened with my older sister Ibtisam, who lost her life 10 years ago due to a lack of insulin.” Kindly donate any amount and reblog.
Just give it up already man. Don't you feel tired of trying to profit off of the back of a genocide? Or any of the other scams you've made countless blogs for?
Over 30,000 people have died in Gaza, nearly half of them children. Just a few days ago Israel started bombing the last safe city that they told everyone to evacuate to, so the number is likely even higher now. The bodies of the dead aren't even buried yet and people are still dying every moment, yet your only concern is trying to steal money from people who would otherwise be using it to help the remaining families escape from death. Do you truly care so little about your fellow humans?
Can you sleep well at night knowing that the piles of money you've stolen over the months (years?) could have been the difference between life and death for the people you impersonated? Can you live with yourself knowing that your actions have very likely led to the deaths of other human beings? Will you continue your scams even knowing that your actions have a body count? Do you have the decency to feel guilt for what you've done? Can anyone—whether a higher power or the people you harmed—ever forgive you in a way that matters?

Hello there! My family needs to leave Gaza out of necessity . I appreciate your efforts and time in reading my plea. There are no words to describe the horrors unfolding in this place.never expected to find myself in this situation. Because of this horrible situation I have decided to come before you guys for a financial support so that I can evacuate my family from this hell that we are into.The funds will be strictly used for the evacuation . I will personally bear any additional expenses incurred.Your support will make a significant difference in alleviating the suffering of my family ,We urgently need any kind of support before it is to late. As time ticking away translates to lives lost in Gaza I'm here and ready to answer any questions or concerns you may have.Kindly reach out and connect with me
the link in ops blog leads directly to a paypal for one jeff owino, who has been shown to be a scammer that is attempting to profit off a genocide. if you also search up paypal names on tumblr you will often find duplicates of this ask from different/suspended accounts which further make this suspicious.
to report scam accounts: report -> something else -> illegal uses or content -> phishing (if possible)
if you actually want to donate to people that need help, gazafunds will generate a verified gofundme and reloads a different one every time:
While the rotation is randomized, campaigns for the sick/injured and campaigns close to meeting their goals are prioritized. We never want any of these campaigns to go stagnant, so we make sure to also prioritize fundraisers that haven't had a donation in a while. As existing fundraisers meet their goals, they will be replaced with other fundraisers that need our help.

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.
Hey. Your situation is really dire and I really would try to help, if this wasn't a huge fucking scam and you weren't straight up fucking evil for using someone else's misery for your own profit. Kill yourself.
anyways
Help Rawan AbuMahady evacuate their family from Nusierat
The people in your profile picture are Hadeed and Ayah,
Tumblr media
And they have the exact situation that you are talking about! to a T!
Tumblr media
The Canadian government and the Canadian Palestinian embassy have not even attempted to free Ayah and Hadeel. Their donation goal covers immediate funding to go through the Rafah crossing into Egypt and the transportation costs to get there.
Do not view the lives of my sisters as more numbers; Hadeel and Ayah are filled with love and hope. I raised them with care, and each of them had dreams and aspirations. Hadeel dreams of becoming a fashion designer and is an aspiring author. Ayah, despite being born into a life of wars and destruction, is filled with art and motivation, she aspires to be an artist and graphic designer. My parents are beautiful soulds; my father is a retired surgen and my mom is a gorgeous embroiderer. They share deep love for nature, their cats, art, music and cienema.
My large Gaza family is filled with love and warmth, and losing them is a tremendous loss. I appreciate your efforts and time in reading my plea. I never expected to find myself in this situation. It is incredibly challenging to navigate these circumstances as an independent woman proud of her financial independence, finding herself in this dire situation.

the scammer @/rescueplease has now been deleted, but since a lot of people are still reblogging my posts about it, i'm changing my pinned post to a list of currently active scam accounts
scammers with the same m.o., sometimes similar profile pics and linktrees/paypal addresses:
> numberonegoateeeagle (paypal name 'Jeff Owino') new
> nour-samr (paypal name 'Nour Samar') >> nour-samr0 new/remake
scammer pretending to be a sick Black person, using the paypal name, 'Alafred Opondo'
> enchantingqueencreator
the 'insulin scammer''s latest blog (at least i think it's their latest blog:
> fancycoffeepeanut
empty blogs who are mass-reblogging the scam posts and are likely just the scammers sock puppet accounts used to pad the notes of their posts, pls block them too:
> chopra-79
> futuristicphilosopherartisan new
deleted/deactivated/changed url:
maina-3
immariaanszz >> iammarinassaa >> iammarinassaass
jovialsuitdonutai (paypal name 'jeff owino')
khalilhan (paypal name 'samuel obiya') >> khaliilhan
marylinfwaznassar (paypal name 'maryline lucy')
stickytreephilosopher (paypal name 'jeff owino')
perfectlyminiatureface (paypal name 'jeff owino')
optimisticalpacalady (paypal 'jeff owino')
omarkhalini (paypal 'fred odhiambo')
marylinefwaznassar (paypal 'maryline lucy')
khalilhani (paypal 'samuel obiya')
weepingpersondestiny (paypal 'jeff owino')
as always, please block and report these blogs, and more importantly, warn your friends, mutuals, and followers if you see them reblogging their scam posts. if you see a donation post/blog that you believe may be a scam, please do look their url up first on the tumblr search bar to see if someone has already called them out. i will try to update this post with the scammers' new accounts/url as we discover them. please also go to @kyra45's blog, as they are faster and more thorough in updating about newly discovered scams.
some red flags to look out for before sharing donation posts/donating:
new blog, or a couple years old but has only a few random, sporadic posts
backdated posts
spamming asks to a lot of other users, even the ones they don't know or have just followed, and even when the user has made it clear they don't want to receive requests to boost dono posts
is asking you to answer their asks privately, or is sending you a message directly
is straight up asking you for money, and usually for impossibly large amounts
do not put their paypal/money transfer links on their post itself, usually claiming it's to protect their 'privacy'
is using Zelle for their money transfer account, especially if the person is claiming to be in Palestine
please don't be so quick to entertain donation requests and to give away your money, especially if the user ticks a lot of these boxes. if you are familiar with the place they say they are from or the language they are supposed to speak, try conversing with them for a bit to see if their claims would hold. you can also browse my 'donation scam' tag or kyra45's blog to compare if the user has any similarities with past scammers that we've discovered.
that's it po. let's all try our best to look out for each other and make sure that our resources are going to the actual people in need, especially in the case of Palestinians asking for help. the last thing they need right now is for shitty lowlifes to use their suffering to make a profit.

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.
Goal: $700
unfortunately, i can’t afford right now to donate as i am in a bad space financially. however, i will try to get this post to everyone it can.
if anyone can donate to this person, please do, as this is a very urgent situation.
EDIT: i have found out from the lovely @lirulin that this is a scammer. they are known for targeting blogs which share content of palestine and the genocide in the gaza strip with fake asks of a gofundme or donations
known scammers are hardtravelermagazine, maddieemartinss, unabashedbirdlight (as seen in the ask of mine), amna-abrr, and asnet-dauod54. as well as fake names they have been known using such as Nour Samar | maryline lucy | Fred Odhiambo | Jeff Owino | Valentine Nakuti | Conslata Obwanga | JACINTA SITATI | David Okoth | Martín Mutugi | Daudi Likuyani | William Ngonyo | Fred Agy | George Ochieng | BONFACE ODHIAMBO | Sila Keli | John Chacha | benson komen | Alvin Omondi | Jacinta Sitati | Daudi Likuyani | Noah Keter | Faith Joram | Rawan AbuMahady (any PayPal’s using this name are scammers who have stolen it off a real GoFundMe. The real person does not have a PayPal account that they post on tumblr.) | Asnet Wangila | Remmy Cheptau

Scammer pretending to be in Palestine v2
This post has been remade with better info! Please go to this one:
Got an ask from someone claiming to be in Palestine needing mutual aid? Unfortunately there is a scammer going around and it’s likely the ask you got sent is the same one being sent by multiple accounts who target users interacting with Palestine posts. These blogs use the text/images off a real fundraiser and then post it here pretending to be the person it’s made for. Their accounts are usually only a few days old and they don’t interact beyond the ask/follow. Lately they might make the link to their PayPal account in different colors or claim their GoFundMe is pending so you will assume the real one is theirs. They don’t have any GoFundMe’s set up. They steal from them. If you need proof of something being stolen, searching the text of their post in a search engine should pull up the source. If you know how to report PayPal accounts, please report those used by the scammers.
(Moved to new list)
Below is a growing list of fake/stolen names used across the accounts:
Nour Samar | maryline lucy | Fred Odhiambo | Jeff Owino | Valentine Nakuti | Conslata Obwanga | JACINTA SITATI | David Okoth | Martín Mutugi | Daudi Likuyani | William Ngonyo | Fred Agy | George Ochieng | BONFACE ODHIAMBO | Sila Keli | John Chacha | benson komen | Alvin Omondi | Jacinta Sitati | Daudi Likuyani | Noah Keter | Faith Joram | Rawan AbuMahady (any PayPal’s using this name are scammers who have stolen it off a real GoFundMe. The real person does not have a PayPal account that they post on tumblr.) | Asnet Wangila | Remmy Cheptau
Keep in mind this post isn’t saying all accounts asking for mutual aid in Palestine are scams. Rather, this post is meant to bring awareness of a scammer stealing money from those who really need it by pretending to be a person in Palestine. To report scams, use this:
Report -> Something else -> Illegal uses or Content -> Phishing

Hello world, the father of the sick child. My son Osaid suffers from brain atrophy and an electrical surge in the brain that leads to frightening epileptic seizures for five years. For five years, Osaid has been receiving treatment and his condition is stable, but after the outbreak of war and the destruction that befell the health system in Gaza, he is no longer receiving treatment and his condition is getting worse day by day. I don't want to lose my seven-year-old son and have no one else. Help me get out of Gaza to Egypt to receive treatment. Everything you do will help save the life of my son Usaid, who loves life like the rest of the world’s children and your children. Coordinating travel to Egypt for one person may reach $700 through Hala Travel Company. I hope that you, my brothers and friends, will help Acid and support him to survive, as he is a beautiful child who loves life just as your children love life.
Hello, beautiful followers! This is a scam, however feel free to donate to REAL Palestinian families using THIS LINK! May Justice be served for the families of Palestine. There is no freedom until we are ALL FREE. And shame on you Jeff Owino.

Hello there! My family needs to leave Gaza out of necessity . I suffer from nightmares that are so closely resemble reality that I no longer Differentiate between reality and a dream.Thank you for taking your efforts and time in reading my plea. There are no words to describe the horrors unfolding in this place,never expected to find myself in this situation. Because of this horrible situation I have decided to come before you guys for a financial support so that I can evacuate my family from this hell that we are into.The funds will be strictly used for the evacuation . I will personally bear any additional expenses incurred.Your support will make a significant difference in alleviating the suffering of my family ,We urgently need any kind of support before it is to late. As time ticking away translates to lives lost in Gaza I'm here and ready to answer any questions or concerns you may have.Kindly reach out and connect with me
Hey party people! This is a scam! And I'm posting it to inform you.
I received this message June 4, and my first instinct was to post and share it, but I had to put my phone away in school before doing so, which I'm glad I did. Before I posted the ask, I decided to do some research on the account, and here were a few red flags that I realized.
#1. The account did not have a name attached to it, nor any details on this person's family. Which confused me because, usually, with gofundmes, there is a bunch of information about the people involved. When I looked at the account's posts, it was just numerous free Palestine posts and nothing else about leaving Gaza.
#2. The low amount of money they were asking for. It is ridiculously expensive to get out of Gaza. And, while I didn't know exactly how much, I knew it would be more than the $800 that the person was asking for. The most recent source I could find on the price was Apr, the price being $5000 per adult and $2500 per child at the very least. Since this was a month ago, the price has most likely sky rocketed as the genocide has continued. It was really odd that this person was only asking for $800.
#3. I found the person's name, or alias at least, on their Paypal. Jeff Owino. I googled that name, and nothing came up except for LinkedIn profiles. Which is strange if you're campaigning to help your family. I decided to look up "Jeff Owino Gaza," which led me to another tumblr post of someone talking about numerous scams going around of people pretending to be Palestinian and in need of aid. Post down here ⬇️
https://www.tumblr.com/kyra45/742772332577308672/scammer-pretending-to-be-in-palestine-v2
It is so so shitty that people are using a fucking genocide to make money. We need to be careful where we place our support in order to avoid giving money to these types of people. Anyways thanks for reading. Check out the donation scam tag for more information.
From the river to the sea, Palestine must be free.

I'm sorry, but I have reason to believe that you're a scammer diverting attention and money from another fundraiser.
Firstly, your profile has only existed since the 6th February, and the link in your pinned post redirects to the PayPal of a Jeff Owino.
However, your text here and your profile image have been copied from this fundraiser:
Notably, Yosef Kassab is not Jeff Owino. I will not be donating via your link, but will instead use the GoFundMe. I hope you're not a scammer, but I have reasonable doubt and at this time, I am carefully scrutinizing all requests because I've seen plenty of this sort of thing before.
