Apparently Gofundme had shut down the campaign for The Sameer Project and has been withholding their funds for weeks, informing the team that their fundraising project is "prohibited".

This is devastating because the funds are meant to support hundreds if not thousands of families in Gaza with mainly providing tents but also food, formula and water.

Gofundme still holds on to $250,000 that are crucial to allow the Sameer team to continue their humanitarian work in the ground in Gaza.

Prior to their campaign shut down, they have been able to use the funds to provide:

They have shared their new donation links: Venmo (please specify which project your donation is going to) / PayPal (please specify which project your donation is going to) / Chuffed (QR code in the last slide)

I have shared their campaign multiple times in the past because I believe it's extreme crucial, when tents can cost hundreds of dollars and Israel keeps displacing and forcing Gazans to flee multiple times. Please consider sharing and donating if you're able to.

My house was destroyed. All of my memories have gone and my belongings have gone.

That's made me feel sad 😭 and I burst into tears 💔

We deserve a better life. we are not numbers

Everyone, the instagram account observed in the video dates back to August 22th of 2019 and links to the same fundraiser. The campaign in question is relatively new, from February of this year, and is donation protecter. It's also very low on funds at USD$846/USD$15,000.

A cry For help form Gaza

My name is Rafat Al-Swaisi. I live in Gaza, where

there is real famine and deadly war. My home and my dreams were destroyed during this war. Now I think with a feeling of frustration when I tell you now that I intend to leave Gaza ,But in these harsh conditions, I do not have enough money to leave Gaza ,I hope everyone can help me evacuate my family from genocide.

Hala loved drawing and she loved life and drawing, and now her school and her life have been destroyed because of the war. We are looking for any way to get out of Gaza.

Hala is suffering from a lack of food, water and medicine. Hala's bird died because of the war. Hala's house is destroyed. We are left with...

Despite the suffering and hardships of this fierce war , your support and assistance ease us and grant us power and patience. Your contribution keeps a whole family safe, that is why i am asking you to donate whatever you can of at least share my link so that other donors can know about my tragedy and pain.

Urgent Relief; Help my family evacuate

People say: "Family always comes First," and to that, I say: "Amen!".

My precious family and I are seeking your generous donations to help us escape death in Gaza and evacuate to Egypt.

It breaks our hearts to pieces to even think about evacuating from our beloved Gaza where we've lived our entire lives and have had unnumberable beautiful memories. Throughout the nine months of the ravaging war in Gaza, the 5 members of my family have been displaced four times in the Gaza Strip seeking every avenue to escape imminent death. At one time, my family and I barely escaped death when sniper bullets hit the house where we sought refuge, and thank God no one of the children was injured.

The children and adults alike had to crawl on the floor to move from one room to another to minimize the risk of getting a bullet in the head or chest. We saw flashbacks before our eyes from our journey in life and thought: "This is the end. Here is where everyone in this family dies." I looked at the children with a heavy heart and thought to myself: "Should not they be playing football or hide and seek instead of trying to hide from Israeli sniper bullets?"

However, I will not save a breath in trying to protect my family and secure a joyous prosperous future for our children. With your generous donations, my family and I will leave famine, death, and destruction in Gaza and get into Egypt. The Egyptian authorities require 5000 dollars for each adult individual who wants to get into Egypt and half that amount from children. The remainder of the money will be used for daily supplies and living expenses in Egypt.

With your generous donations, we have a better chance of escaping death and enjoying the safety for which we've dearly longed for nine months.

Your help restores our hope in humanity and goodness in people.

Your help saves lives

There was a misunderstanding about this blog and they're not scammers as I reblogged before, but the one who was using the same photos and story was Mohamed Ibrahim's brother. They're brothers and one of them was late to open a gofundme.

Here's an explanation post; this fundraiser is not a scam, and the fund holders have additionally spoke with el-shab-hussein and been added to the vetted spreadsheet under entry #240. Moayesh hasn't been able to vet this fund directly yet, but their relative Mahmoud has been vetted already at #151.

Please donate to this fundraiser and reblog this post!

URGENT APPEAL ❗️❗️ Please don't skip taking a look 🇵🇸🍉

Hello, I am Ahlam Hilles. I am creating this fundraising on behalf of my family (my father, mother, and my three siblings)

Their story

My family, consisting of my father (Suleiman Hilles, my mother Sanaa Hilles, my brother Ahmed,24 years old, my sister Asmaa,20 years old, and my sister Aya, 18 years old), lived in Al-Shujaiya neighborhood in the north of the Gaza Strip.

When the war broke out, Al-Shujaiya was one of the most dangerous neighborhoods, and accordingly my father's house was completely destroyed.so they were forced to move to Khan Yunis city to their friends' house. When the bombing intensified in Khan Yunis, then they were forced to move Rafah city and again to Deir Al-balah where most of civilians were displaced to.

They have become subject to daily suffering to secure food and search for water and medicine.

They live in a tent made of cloth and plastic in very difficult and unhealthy conditions.They do not even find a mattress to sleep on, nor cooking gas, nor any of the necessities of life. Your help and donations to us are a rescue and an effective contribution to alleviating these harsh conditions.

I am also trying to collect money in order to try to get the family out of the Gaza Strip and escape to Egypt when Rafah crossing opens.

The exit fees for their relocation amount to $5,000 for each adult. With 5 adults in my family, the total exit fees required for my family sum up to $25000 USD.

Please help us by donating any amount and contribute to saving us from the hell in the Gaza Strip or help us reach the campaign and spread it widely by reblogging and sharing it with your friends.

Thank you for your sympathy

This campaign is completely legitimate and aims to save my family .

Note: You can contact me to answer all your inquiries and provide you with the required proofs.

I am Ahed Al-Anqar. I am 33 years old. I am married to Maysoon Al-Anqar. We have three children: Fatima (9 years old), Iman (6 years old), and Nour (1 year old). We faced all the challenges imposed by the war regime in Gaza, but now we need your help to escape from... This tragedy🥹

Since the beginning of the last war in Gaza, my home has been partially destroyed, forcing us to move. We had to move more than ten times to find safety. During this harrowing journey, we faced extreme hunger and malnutrition that almost claimed the lives of me and my children. In addition, we have been exposed to many serious infectious diseases and epidemics.

Unbearable hardships

I have to travel long distances just to get water, and stand in line for hours to get food. My mental health and the health of my children deteriorated due to the war. My children’s education was interrupted and they suffered from catastrophic hunger that almost claimed their lives.

After: This is our house, built with our sweat and effort, and it was partially destroyed.

The right to a peaceful life

My children deserve to live a peaceful life free of fear and anxiety.

The cost of arranging travel for an adult outside Gaza currently ranges between $5,000 and $7,000, and $2,500 per child.

Fatima: the closest to my heart, and my little one.

Iman: The friendly, kind, and loving child who is loved by everyone

Nour: Who did not live her life like other children, as she was born two months before the war

Donate now and help us get to safety

May God reward you greatly for your generosity.

This post serves as vetted and confirmation from a renowned blogger and individual after sending them documents and information about my campaign.

Hello everyone, I hope all of you are well, My new account is because I lost my old account feature asking and messages without knowing resones 🥹

€630/€40,000 at the time of writing. Ahed and his family are VERY LOW ON FUNDS!

Ahed's campaign has been promoted by @/mohammedalanqer. Mohammed has been vetted here and is also 174 on the vetted fundraisers list.

I am Habib from Gaza. I am married and have four children: Menna, 12 years old, Adam, 10 years old (suffering from quadriplegia), Maria, 6 years old, and Ezz, one year old. Although they are young, they have survived previous wars, but this current war is the most difficult of all. This is a war of genocide, and the difficulty of the war lies in the inability to meet the needs of my son Adam, who needs special care.

Over the past ten months, we have been caught in the crossfire of the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Our once peaceful home in Khan Yunis has been reduced to rubble, and now we find ourselves displaced in Deir al-Balah, living in squalid conditions in a makeshift tent on the streets. The devastation not only deprived us of our physical shelter, but also destroyed my livelihood - the once thriving business that supported our family's well-being, is now in ruins. The daily struggle for survival is exacerbated by the scarcity of basic necessities such as clean water, adequate sanitation and basic medical supplies

Our home was the place where we found hope and safety, and where we made precious memories. Losing him was like losing years of our lives.

Not only that, they destroyed my source of livelihood, burned it, and demolished it with bulldozers, and today I am without a home and without a job. I was working in a store I owned that met the needs and expenses of my family

Living in tents is miserable. There is a lack of drinking water, hot sun rays, and strange insects that have terrified my children. What hurts me most is my young son Ezz, who I see growing up in an unclean environment and with no healthy food for him. I believe he has not received his right to life.

At this stage, my husband and I decided to go to you and create an account on the Go Fund Me website and ask you to help us in these difficult times until we get out of Gaza, from the land of war to the land of peace. All we need from you is to support us and help us to get out of the war, even if you cannot help. You should spread the word. This campaign is everywhere and among your friends. We thank you for your stance and support for us. Thank you, my friends

The amount that will be collected from this campaign :

We will spend it by paying the amount to coordinate entry through the Rafah land crossing, which connects Gaza to the State of Egypt, since, as I mentioned, they charge an adult $5,000, but depending on the pressures, crises, and waiting, the amount may reach $7,000 per person, and children $2,500 to $4,000.

We will also use it for the rest of the travel and safe transportation expenses to provide for all family members.

A picture of my children's life before the war

May God reward you with all the best and may God bless you

Best wishes with sincere gratitude,

Hello 👋 my ❤ friends !

I am asking you to support my newly created campaign to help my family survive the gruesome war over Gaza to safety and ✌️ peace.

Life has become incredibly harsh, tough and full of hardship and painful suffering. We lack all he basic living essentials and necessities such as food, water , medicine and other needs.

The war has made our life hopeless and desperate. My six-member family has been going through the hardest days they have ever experience for almost eleven months due to the disastrous war.

The war has taken every beautiful thing from us, leaving us homeless, displaced and jobless. Everything is tough and impossible to get. Water and living conditions are incredibly unattainable and unaccessible.

The rising prices of all necessary items of life has complicated our living conditions especially when all our savings were spent over the least necessities and needs.

A photo taken for my tender sick children who is suffering from a chronic disease relating to his respiratory system. 😭😭😭

That is why I am now asking you to lessen and minimize our burdens and loads of life through your contribution.

You can help my family survive through donating whatever you can or reposting my massages.

Yours

Rewaa

This user has taken photos and text directly from Mahmoud Khalaf's fundraiser. ( @supportgaza previously @mahmoudkhalafff )

Here's a screenshot of my DMs with Mahmoud, where he confirms this person stole his photos:

Stolen Aspects:

Here's a side-by-side comparison, with the scammer's fundraiser being on the left, and the legitimate one on the right.

Here's a few examples of the text from "Mohammed Ibrahim's" fundraiser being ripped directly from Mahmoud's.

This one varies a bit, but is overall the same passage. You can check the image ID for the specific discrepancies:

This one also varies; same thing with the image ID:

Duplicate photos as well:

There are also plenty of similarities between the two blogs, but I think this is sufficient evidence. Please keep an eye out for things like this.

Here is a collection of links to easily locate and differentiate between the two:

I have additionally archived "Mohammed's" links through the Wayback Machine because they will likely be altering parts of their account and/or fundraiser in order to remove the stolen portions once they realize they've been caught, as what happened with Nesma Ahmed's impersonator. [1] [2]

Reporting the scammer:

Mahmoud's fundraiser is so close to reaching its goal! If you donated to the wrong fundraiser, please move those funds over to Mahmoud's.

As per usual, this post as well as the rest of my blog is for identifying well-documented scammers. This is not a place to accuse all fundraisers of being scams, or to be weird/bigoted. You can find scammers on this blog and find vetted/unvetted but likely legitimate fundraisers on my main blog, @cluelessbot.

EDIT: MAHMOUD HAS SINCE REACHED OUT AND CLARIFIED THAT THIS IS HIS RELATIVE AND NOT A SCAMMER

Mahmoud ( @supportgaza ) has requested I not show his original message due to it containing some personal information, but there was essentially a miscommunication between Mahmoud and his relatives about starting the second fundraiser, leading Mahmoud to believe that scammers were behind it.

I am in the process of contacting people who interacted with my original post to clarify that neither @malokamohamed nor @mohammeedibraheem are scammers, but are relatives of Mahmoud. I apologize to everyone for spreading false information.

Please do not contact either Mahmoud or any of his relatives about this further, as it has been cleared up. This has been a stressful event for the both of them, and they are both in need of help to evacuate their family.

Mahmoud's fundraiser is so close to reaching its goal! If you donated to the wrong fundraiser, please move those funds over to Mahmoud's. These are both legitimate fundraisers! Please donate to and promote both!
