Googling shows she has had at least five ‘GoFundMe’ accounts over the past few months and has brought in over $4,000 dollars.

In one she says she lives alone.
In another she says her husband was injured.
In one she's 76 years old. In another she's 73?

5. I tried to warn people

Is there a way we can flag this stuff 'better' so that it is removed quicker?

It looks more like a guy in a bad wig!!

$4K in a few months, that's a pretty good scam. Maybe I need to try that.

[DUmpsterDiver]

The wig has been burned to protect the guilty.

I wonder what his/her DUmp handle is??

I wonder what his/her DUmp handle is??

If someone can pull up the archive of the original gofundme post, the name of the primitive was mentioned.

I saw Kali`s thread yesterday morning that has since been hidden.

This is one of the scammers earlier begathons.

Please..as a fellow DUer...I need help!
My propane tank is almost empty and it is getting very cold in the mountains of New Mexico. I need a propane delivery in the worst way. I have tried every outlet in New Mexico for help but I have been denied because my social security check is $150 over the limit. New Mexico would rather I freeze instead of lending a helping hand. If you can help, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I have set up a gofundme account:

I have donated money to Duers when they needed help...now I need the help!
