Scammers trying to make a fast buck on the lacking Titanic-bound submersible tried to crowdsource off the tragedy โฆ however GoFundMe is cracking down.
Hereโs the deal โฆ we did some digging and located a number of GoFundMe pages looking for donations for search and rescue efforts, and cash for the lacking passengersโ households.
Problem is โฆ these GoFundMe pages are NOT legit โฆ and the platform is taking motion, and scrubbing the pages in some circumstances.
A rep for GoFundMe tells TMZ โฆ their Trust & Safety crew is monitoring the platform for fundraisers associated to the OceanGate sub, and 5 fundraisers have already been eliminated.
The of us behind the bogus fundraisers seem to have lofty visions โฆ most of them set six-figure targets, with others looking for upwards of $2 million.
The sub went lacking Sunday, sparking an enormous search and rescue mission โฆ but it surely seems the submersible imploded, killing all 5 individuals inside, and so they could have died the very day they set out for the Titanic shipwreck.
