A young man on this site sent me a long message asking me to create a gofundme for him to get him and his family out of the Philippines. He asked me to be in charge of it, send money to it and so on... While I appreciate that he might have a need/desire of some sort, this seems really inappropriate. I did report it. I just wonder if some of you got the same message??
I put this under general and hellos as I was not sure where to post this.
Niggerian email scam ditto. ...pleading with anyone for a financial cyberlink
We've deleted a few of his posts asking money from members. Thanks for letting us know he also messaged people for donations. We will give him a warning.
He can go to the US EMBASSY and file the papers to leave there. ...he is a scammer....he could enlist in the US Navy and earn the money for his family travel money. ...
I posted here an organization that helps Atheists in hostile nations get to safety. That is who he needs to connect with. There are too many scammers out there to do such a thing for a complete stranger 1/2 way around the world , as it could be anyone . . . (?)
Hmmm.... i was told by my senior mechanical engineer..... you can't stop world hunger..... that hit me between the eyes. I can see his point now. It's let your conscience be your guide... I say do whatever you feel your heart leads you to do...
