🚨 Look out for this fundraiser that purports to help a young Palestinian girl. We noticed several red flags about it, and its legitimacy remains unconfirmed.
A fundraiser to purportedly help save the life of a young Palestinian girl was spreading in replies under popular tweets on Twitter in February 2023. However, we noticed several red flags that indicated this may not have been what it claimed to be.from an account named Amoon Qasim read,"Urgent relief is here to save a Palestinian girl."
The same picture from the fundraising page had previously been posted on Facebook in 2018. Much like the 2023 tweets, the post didn't include any specific identifying details for the girl. On Jan. 5, 2023, the @IlmFeed Twitter account tweeted,"Scam warning! Do not donate to this fundraiser. This account has been replying to our tweets with a fundraising link but it is a scam. One of the photographs used is of a Syrian girl who was helped by Turkiye. When we challenged them via DM, they blocked us."
