Tinder Swindler Victims Gofundme

Am I cunt of the week?

I’m not knocking anyone’s hustle and I do have sympathy for the women hustled by the Tinder Swindler. I noticed that the women on the documentary have launched a gofundme for the money they were swindled out off. With that being said, I would never donate to their fundraiser because they willingly took our hundreds of thousands of loans for this dude. It’s different when a vulnerable person is getting scammed and not knowing it — but the amount they willingly took out for this guy was literally reckless. What I will say is I do NOT blame them for capitalizing on this fame. I would too. But maybe I’d start a business or sell a product instead of straight up asking for a handout.

I totally understand why you wouldn't want to donate to their GoFundMe (I'm not sure I would either) but I also can't blame them for doing this. I hope Netflix paid them well for their participation in the doc..but I can't imagine how much they're making off the story. (Way more than $800k I'd guess) I am shocked that he was able to swindle SO many women, but that just shows you he knew exactly how to manipulate people, and how to pick women that he could easily manipulate and control.
