❗STOP DONATING TO UKRAINE❗ This is a message for anyone who has received direct messages from “soldiers” who claim they are starving or desperately need medicine. It’s a scam. These are almost always African scammers. There are no soldiers in Ukraine starving in the trenches and begging strangers for Apple/Google gift cards. Friends of mine have literally flown KFC to their mates in the trenches by drone just for fun. There is a supermarket within about an hour of every trench line. If someone in your DMs is asking for gift cards so they can “buy food/medicine for their dying comrade/cat,” it is pure horseshit. I personally get messages every day from people who have been scammed this exact way, some for $50, some for $5,000. ---- What to do? ---- If you have been donating directly to “soldiers” who contact you privately from “the trenches”: - Stop all such donations immediately - Cut up the cards you’ve been using (or just block international payments) - Call your bank and ask them to ban international transfers/payments Thank you for caring about Ukraine. Keep your money for your own families and kids instead. Please remember you can also check WHERE an account is located, shown in the images below, click "Joined --- Date" and it will bring you to a second page, if they are in Africa they aren't in Ukraine.
