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 mea yea I totally agree with this but also have started to think that people featured in true crime / scandal / docu-series have become so popular that it's almost become a weird industry in itself. Like people will be interviewed for witnessing a murder and all of a sudden are pushing products on IG, selling merch, etc. and I think it's weird.
