hey question for you. This person I don't know followed me out of the blue on Birdsite and their whole feed is asking people for donations for their daughter's surgery. They're presenting Queer/Latinx for this too; I really feel it's too convenient to be a real person in need, but what if they *are*?

May I ask what you think please?

@Leucrotta Probably not real, and I basically allowed my self to get scammed by such a person, so I say avoid it.

@chimerror Thanks. I want to help, it's just if I get scammed that's less money I can throw at people who need the help.
