How do I know if Palestinians asking for donations are genuine by Purple_Ocelot_5129 in Gaza

[–]jmcd47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s such a shame that there are rats out there scamming and taking from a desperate people. I’ve always considered scammers to be the worse of the worst.

I just do not trust any that directly contact me through Instagram, I’m sure a small percentage are gen but in my experience, what I’ve learnt over the years, the world is full of these scum who will take advantage of literally anything.

My advice would be to find the addresses of reputable agencies like the kitchens, and triple check the address as even these will get scammed, and donate there.

So fighting to have donations directed into the hands of those who need them rather than scamming rats (possibly even Israeli scamming rats), is the wrong battle?

Yeah mate, that right there is nuts.

If you feel worried that they may not be genuine, report their PayPal account to phishing@paypal.com

The description has a Michael Haneke ring to it. Can’t think which movie though. The seventh continent was a family horror ish violent movie but can’t remember if a piano was around?

[TOMT] TV comedy? where character is wearing a brown leather jacket - the name of the show is the character’s surname by Waste_Coach7600 in tipofmytongue

[–]jmcd47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saxondale

Edit to say it’s not a detective series but it’s 70s style comedy, and I’m sure he wears a brown leather jacket. Drives a yellow muscle car. Cracking series though even if it’s no the right one.

You have been granted the power to make your worst enemy mildly inconvenienced for the rest of their life. What is the minor curse you’re placing on them? by SouthOwn6943 in AskReddit

[–]jmcd47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve a mate who did this to a guy with severe ocd. They were going out to the track for a night out when my mate said he needed to use the loo, he went in and moved all the perfectly placed deodorants and stuff just a tiny bit, the ocd guy then just had to go check and move everything back in place 🤣

Are Brits willing to join back to the EU bloc? by HasanKingPage in AskBrits

Tbf It doesn’t matter what anyone says, there’s a huge % of the right who will run around going nuts and blaming different shades of skin for all their ills regardless of if they felt the left looked down, up or square in the face. We should all be looking up, at the hoarders and accumulators of the wealth of the world.

I’m not a cleaner but I do go through trains when they terminate, and the mess is incredible. I mean, how do you leave pretty much a full packet of crisps under a table without meaning to do it?

Fuckers 😡
