GoFundMe officially cancelled the Freedom Convoy fundraiser on Friday and plans to distribute the remaining $9million of donated funds to 'credible and established charities' that were reportedly chosen by the convoy organizers and have been verified by the platform.The crowdfunding platform claimed the fundraiser - which raised $10million Canadian dollars ($8 million USD) in support truckers protesting against COVID-19 vaccine mandates - violated its terms of service 'which prohibits the promotion of violence and harassment'.'GoFundMe supports peaceful protests and we believe that was the intention of the Freedom Convoy 2022 fundraiser when it was first created,' the company said in a statement released Friday evening.

I'm not a lawyer but that sure sounds like theft. That money does not belong to GoFundMe. If I was one of the donors, I'd sue them.

GoFundMe is evil, hates ANYTHING that isn't hard left.
NEVER trust them. They lie and steal the money.

enquiring minds believe fraudeau is behind this entire grift; which is now exposed as a crass mrxo-con.
imho, all of these creeps could do w/ a taste of their own shamwooooohoooo:
1) truckistan donors could act pdq to examine moves required to tie the hands of these wankers seeking to misappropriate donor $!!
ex.:
2)in lieu of demanding a 'refund' on yr donation--call yr card company to look into a demand to do a 'chargeback'--said to be expensive to process afaik----and in large numbers-the donors could drive these lowlifes right round the bend;
3) ck w/ canadians on lawyers-- for both sides of the border-- to craft a big fat financial freeze on illegitimate $ transfers attempted by
despots r us for unjust , phony fines;
4) then toddle on to review uniting and proceeding in a class action against these tosspots.
think about it.

If they take the money and don't distribute it to the entity it was designated for isn't that either fraud or theft of 9 million dollars? Do to ever trust the GoFundMe people ever again?

Goddamn the criminal scum who operate Go Fund Me! Evidently they know better than you where your money should go! These Bastids support the MURDEROUS ANTIFA and BLM crowds but not protestors who want to make a living other than by being parasites of the government.

The money should be returned to the donors if it is not given to the truckers. This is reason never to give money on GoFundMe.

Easy solution.
Stop sending money to go fund me.
If they want to go out of business help them by not sending them money.

Sounds like wire fraud. Should be charged under RICO statutes. Send them all to prison.
