See above. The Canadian government, Ontario and Owatta are making claims against this money. Gofundme will end up paying this to Tredeau.

I wonder if I can start a gofundme effort to hire lawyers and accountants to analyze their theft?

I just canceled my donation via my credit card company. I’ll look for another way to support them.

“””$9 million funds to be sent to “credible charities.””””


I guess BLM will be at the top of the list of credible charities.

Now all of the donors will have to demand the return of their contribution from GOFUNDME——after GOFUNDME deducts their 5% service fee.

Why did they wait so long ( 9 million dollars too long) to make this decision?

Sounds illegal to take someone’s donation that was intended for one purpose and send it to another. Return the donations to their original donors I would be good with. But this sounds like theft.

Brad Damphousse and Andrew Ballester, co-founders of San Diego-based crowdfunding company GoFundMe, said Wednesday that they are selling a controlling interest in their startup to an investor group that includes Accel Partners and Technology Crossover Ventures (TCV)...

When will people realize GoFundMe is a political operation which discriminates against Conservatives?

It has been obvious for years.

I’m sure in our tort system there is no problem finding a firm to initiate a class action lawsuit.
