- Thread starter Soda
- Start date
Televangelists have said that God wants them to have their own personal jet so they can spread the word of God better, and people donated more than enough. This is up there though.

The $20million Build the Wall campaign is getting refunded. @gofundme is refunding everyone (~330,000 people) who donated because, according to a spokesperson, Brian Kolfage broke the original promise of the campaign to give the money back if they didn't reach their goal pic.twitter.com/3HDAzTqrgf

So many folks gettin' scammed by this guy. On a Go Fund Me that's two percent funded.
Wow, who would have predicted that the donations to this GFM campaign would have slowed down so much. Wasn't it 10 mil after a couple of days? It's only at 20 million after 25 days. Weird.
Hahahaha, holy fuck, that's amazing. Though I wouldn't feel the least bit sad if this dude ran away with thousands of racist assholes' money.
That's pretty much every crowdfunding campaign. There's typically a big initial rush as news of it spreads around, a significant dropoff over time, then another bump just before the end.
Though it looks like GFM is refunding everybody, which will make the whole thing moot.
Good, let him have it. If people were stupid enough to put money to this, they deserve what happens next.
BTW, look at the supposed list of "advisors" LMAO
PFFFFFFFFFTTTTTTTHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA
And sure enough.
The precedent this would have set would've been a dangerous one.
Even if he had been able to steal the money from racists, I don't care for another racist getting 20 million dollars richer either.
This surprises me none, and most people that would have donated will likely support this move because they are fucking morons. Just last week on facebook I saw someone share the video about the couple who raised money for that homeless guy and pocketed it. The whole thread was full of supporters and the one person who posted the real fraud story was laughed out of there.
Its a shitty realization that there has never been a better time to be a con man.

I've been following news too closely when I can recognize almost everyone on this who's who list. Dear lord.
Grifter's League?
Morally Bankrupt Consortium?
Whatever the going rate is multiplied by 330k backers. It's pegged to them and not the dollar amount. Whatever the final value is Gofundme isn't going to be paying for that and that's fine. These people lucked out to not get extra screwed while this shut down is in effect.
Dude can't legally do it.
Stupid people giving him money.
Stupid racist people giving him money.
Dude might be shit but grift away, my man. You're only hurting your fellow assholes who want a wall.

How mad is Allen West that he didn't make the cut? A who's-who of washed up right-wing clowns.
Literally make some random no name grifter into a millionaire overnight to trigger the libs brehs.
usually there is no processing fee on a refund.
the bigger question is, are they doing this out of their own pocket? It sounds like he still has all of the funds. So are they going to pursue action against him?
racist parents.
"We're just getting started."
No, you're not. The donations have slowed a huge amount. And the notion that every donor is going to "proactively elect" for their money to go to this sham company is ridiculous, so they'll end up with less money.
And LOL at them thinking they're just going to go and start building. Is this team of advisers going to source the equipment and materials? Is Sara Carter going to drive a big-rig to deliver them to the border? What the FUCK are they even talking about?

Do parents of kids killed by white Americans in senseless mass shootings get a name like that?
I'm too lazy to look up GFM rules, but maybe there's a settlement period, especially for not yet funded things? So maybe they hadn't actually some or most of the money to him yet?
I wish I could have thought of this scam first.
Taking all that money from those racist rubes would have felt unbelievably good.
These sources say the funds will be refunded to donors
