Does anyone know how to report a scam on that “gofundme” site he created? I also got the email and the total donations have gone up almost $100 in the last hour… Might be worth looking into. I didn’t see anything like a “report this page” link.

I just got the email too and apparently he has already raised 1475$. This guy needs to be stopped.

I trashed his email right after the phrase “lung cancer”, even did not read about what he asked further. Actually it was so clear… People play dangerous games, well… their choice…

I really hope there is a special place in hell for people running cancer donation scams and therefore making it harder for people who actually need donations to raise money.

I feel sad, because of the whole thing (if finally we can demostrate this is a fraud) and because i gave him (along with other authors) the idea of using a crowdfunding site for his cause, on his original thread, now deleted. :(

I talked with him and he said he`s going to ask for a legal copy from hospital that confirm their disease. I really hope he`s not a scammer – but he have to prove it.

I hope that Envato will take any action against him.
