That's why I asked. Because any fake people ruin it for the real people.

Last post wanting money, I just asked in seriousness how does the money get to you, and how do you actually spend cash in Gaza? And they deleted the post altogether. So that tells me the person was fake.

This one says family of six, but the photos were of four individual people that didn't seem to be family unit. Usually a family in need posts a family photo, rather than random headshots.

Its OK to be skeptical and curious. Look how many fake Ukraine gofundmes there were when that broke out.

@BCsven

About the money, several options to receive it: Paypal, cryptocurrency, IBAN.

About the photos, I can say that not everyone is comfortable to share their pictures online, for different reasons.

And with the destruction that is happening where can you go to retrieve funds safely?
