I'm not referring to the Imom threads, or similar.

What I'm referring to is blind crossposts, usually from members new to a forum whose requests look about as believable as the random Nigerian prince promising to send me millions if I help him/her get their money to an offshore account.

I donate to my church, the food pantry the church runs, and will give to special offerings for people asked for by the pastor.

I just find the whole fundly/crowdsourcing area to be rife for scammers.
