Gofundme scammers #2

The day I had to come home from hospital without my son, I was physically sick and couldn't stop shaking. I still remember how horrific and raw those first days were, and it was unthinkable having to talk to undertakers/registrars etc. The fact that she can be begging for money? I'm sorry her poor son was so poorly but feck me, this is grifting at a whole new level.

OK the two storming in here on the defence of Oz and Amy. They asked for money for Dillys treatment. As far as we know, that was used for that purpose. That's what people donated for. Fine.

But when they say they desperately need money to pay their bills while off work, then use some of this money for holidays, that IS fraudulent because holidays are not bills! Yes, they deserve a holiday. So do I. But my money goes to my bills and I cannot afford a holiday as a result. It doesn't work both ways.

If they'd had so much money donated that they could comfortably pay their bills, then they should have declared they would use the remainder towards Dillys Den. They are begging here there and everywhere for freebies for this project, while wasting donated money on banners that are only useful for one day (the marathon), and pointless branded hard hats. They obviously need a lot of money for it to go ahead.

At no point have they said, we need the money to treat ourselves and the girls to a holiday.

OK, so maybe they paid for it themselves? No, doesn't add up, because in that case they could afford to pay the bills.

It's tragic what happened to Dilly. But it is in no way 'too far' to call them out for their greedy, ungrateful, dishonest behaviour.

This clearly isn't the thread for you so move on.

Sorry but I’ve got to say this. Dilly isn’t even cold yet and she’s plugging for more money.

absolutely disgraceful. Get off the internet. Look after yourself and your other children. You are not the only family in the world to lose a child to cancer.

rest in peace baby

 

[bella246xox]

Wow. She has no shame at all. A whole new go fund me for his funeral and bills.
50K target.
guess this is her last chance to use him as her cash cow, similar to Ashley Cain / Safiyya Vorajee. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Second post in a matter of minutes from me….. I’m on one now.

the comments are so kind as well. Kind hearted, nice, genuine people donating their own money to her. She’s not on the bones of her arse. I’ve never seen her in rags.
Just be done with it all now ffs. This has really pissed me off because people will continue to hand their money over! It’s up to them of course but it’s not even been 24 hours yet.

100% she had that speech typed out months ago too. All ready to just press submit when the time was right
Makes me feel sick.

How do family members pay their bills while they aren’t working? I do get peoples issues with this family but I think there is a much bigger picture. I know of at least 2 other families who have had go fund me’s fully support their lifestyle while they had a sick child all be it on a smaller level. These just didn’t have as big reach as Amy so people didn’t know about it

If they’d ONLY asked for money at D’s end of life,
If they’d ONLY asked for funds to pay their bills rather than the bills of their family members too,
If they hadn’t gone on multiple expensive holidays and day trips funded by other people,
If they didn’t live in a ridiculously expensive home,
If they didn’t show off their top of the range car,
If they didn’t consistently dress in very expensive clothes,
If they hadn’t spent years asking strangers for money,
If they showed signs of trying to live a less extravagant and over the top lifestyle over the last 4 years and attempted to live within their means….
……..then I’d agree with you.

That said, despite my views on their grifting, their baby is dying and it’s tragic. D’s parents can apply for benefits, it’s not much but it’s what they’re there for.

 

[Anneofgreengables]

Disgraceful! Give up/sell your apartment then, where Dilly felt at peace. He’s at peace somewhere else now so downsize and live within your means like the rest of us. And why not try paying for your own child’s funeral. The last thing you can do for him Amy. Bury him, cremate him, whatever, but don’t rely on strangers with big hearts to pick up the bill. You probably won’t read this though, already packing your suitcases for your next holiday again using your dead son as an excuse. Lay your son to rest then get to work you lazy pair of grifters! I sound heartless, I’m not, believe me, but that latest post has astounded me.

I see Oz hasn't shared the GFM page at all

I feel like he is genuinely cut up on another level and money is not at the forefront of his brain right now, as you would expect from a normal parent who has lost their young child after a gruelling battle. (She will prob make him share it now)

———

also , it’s at £62K now she asked for £50K! Why not close the GFM now, such a money hungry greedy bitch! She’s actually repulsive and I hope one day she sees how messed up this is.

 

[GalaxyGirl70]

I have a feeling that Mum is an ardent google trained medic - and she has probably sent the medical team in hospital round the bend. I was told very kindly by a hospice nurse to stay off the internet as it didn't help anyone at that stage and they'd answer every single question that I had.

I'm pretty horrified that it seems to be a growing trend that parents "sell" their childrens' last moments to the 'Gram/Facebook. It is so very wrong on every level and I really think that it needs to be stopped legally and morally.

 

[GabbyJ]

This is completely immoral what she is doing now.
Whilst I have no doubt she loved dllly and left no stone unturned to help him fight this disease, why can she not understand that the world owes her nothing. Surely there's money left over from what's already raised to cover the funeral? Who has the luxury of taking a break to recover from the loss of a loved one? If you can't fund it yourself then wait till you can through hard work and graft. Amy has my sincerest condolences but this is a new low. When I read that poor dilly had passed away, my own money worries paled into insignificance and I planned to treat them after I pick them up from nursery and school.
Rest in peace Dillan

Everyone deals with things differently and hopefully known of you have to deal with losing a child to know exactly how you would be in that moment

I would sincerely hope that if i ever become so greedy as to write a post begging for money within 24 hrs of my childs death i would be called out on it

 

[GalaxyGirl70]

I personally think that any children (and sometimes even adults) who are given a terminal diagnosis should receive an independent guardian/advocate who works with both medics and parents to ensure that they aren't put through unnecessary treatments that add nothing to life quality. Time and time again you see parents who refuse to accept medical advice, get onto Google and find some hospital offering snake oil treatment for £s and kids are dragged around the globe for. I know you want to do anything to keep a child alive, it's human nature but you also need to prioritise quality of life over quantity and I don't think parents are always the best judges of this.

 

[Queeniebee]

I was waiting for this post.... totally expected it from her! Your sons body isn't even cold yet and your asking for 50k!
You spent £40k or even more on treatments that wouldn't and hasn't worked on your son!(yes I know you try everything but after so many treatments and nothing has changed then you'd stop them especially when she knew he hated them too) You put your own feelings before that of your son's pain!

How many families are out there going or about to go through the same heartbreak and in debt, having time of unpaid and having to pay for a funeral but they will do it by managing what little funds they have or borrow of family/friends or a friend may set up a GFM (probably the first one they have done) for a little amount......

I'm sorry but £50k is a lot for what is needed (yes change the total to 50k if it got near that amount but don't start with it)! She's just got money grabber written all over her! Why should people donate to buy her a holiday! Yes she's lost her son but many hundreds of other people have and haven't been able to away.....

Sorry for the rant but it's the lowest of the low begging for money!

 

[GalaxyGirl70]

It's the people telling DIlly to "keep fighting" that piss me off. You don't fight cancer, cancer fights you. As if that poor little darling has any control over what's happening to his body

 

[TitTwist]

If I'd just lost my entire family, literally nothing would make me happy or "over the moon" apart from having my parents and siblings back. What an odd thing to ask before the family is even buried??

 

[busylass]

Lost for words too. Imagine asking for £50k less than 24 hours after your child passing away. I’m astonished.

 

[Wellthisisinteresting]

On the Go fund me

“ I would like to honor dilly in the best way possible, but also in a sensible way. We would really like to take some time away, take his ashes somewhere nice and make up for lost time with the girls. Possibly pay some rent in advance for a while to relieve the stress of this”


Wow …. Not even 24 hours since he died
She has this all pre planned and typed out!!!!

 

[x_bethanyy]

Have you guys heard of Tanna Rae Wroblewski? She's a four-month-old baby who died of heat stroke on a boat. Temperatures were up to 120F (~49C) that day, and she was left alone on the boat while her parents went swimming. The police are investigating but the dad is a cop so unlikely anything will come of it.

A GFM was started asking for donations to cover the funeral expenses. It reached $48,800 USD before donations were disabled, perhaps because of backlash from the public (the internet).

 

[Wellthisisinteresting]

Amy Ramsey you are an actual disgrace!!!

Most people wouldn’t be able to function …. Planning a trip with her son’s ashes …. WTF

 

[Anneofgreengables]

Thanks for the new thread!

Can someone tell Oz to stop posting pictures! That latest one of Dilly his skin looks so yellow and swollen!

I haven’t commented on this particular family and don’t follow them but curiosity from reading here made me look at their open profiles. That photo you’re referring to is a disgusting thing to do to a child during their transition from this life to the next..if there is one. I just need to ask if anyone knows why they actually beg for money on a GFM? I looked at that tosser of a dad, how much does that guy love himself. I looked back at his posts as far as 2016 before he met her and couldn’t believe his sense of importance and self love. Hers is the same. Then I saw the huge apartment they have on Canary Wharf and the boxes of new furniture etc posted when they moved in. Jeepers none of that stuff comes cheap, so I ask again, why grifting on Insta during your child’s dying days or hours. He seems to own his own business as there are posts about his employees. Why not sell the fancy apartment and flash cars and stop moaning about bills. I’m so angry I just had to vent. They are a pair of melts, there’s a place in hell for what they’ve put that child through in his last months. No sympathy for them here. My sympathy is for the little one, I hope his final journey is calm and peaceful and his destination is happier than the life he has had to endure. Poor little mite. Sorry for the long rambling post guys.
