Was that the Australian woman? Wellness thing
No, i just found the thread. Her name is Georgie Morris. The last update was in August where she had deposited about £1500 back to the GFM page.

Is she well known in the local area? Maybe social services sign post people to her? Mind you I struggle to see people in crisis need footlocker or ASOS vouchers! Round my way they ask for supermarket vouchers or food parcels where you really can buy most things. Seems odd

Belle Gibson was the Aussie moron who said she had cancer but didn’t

Why don’t the likes of Arias mum and I’m sure many others just ask for people to donate to the chosen charities in memory of xxxxxxx . Why do they need to accept the money then hand it over .a direct donation is far better option and lowers the

There’s always some emotional blackmail in a post as well with arias mum. “Can’t stop crying” then 10 seconds later “please donate” NO. NO MORE DONATIONS.

I’ve been reading these threads a lot recently because deep down I’ve often been shocked at what people are asking for whilst their child is literally on their death bed. I get times are hard but sound people are relentless, the hustle never stops!
I follow a page from a family in America I think who sadly lost their beautiful daughter in March this year, they used to ask for a lot towards personal costs when she was still here. I swear, today I was talking about this subject with my husband and mentioned the American page then the second I went in my Instagram I seen a post, they were asking for help towards living costs, and set up a go fund me for $30,000!!!!! I was bloody gobsmacked. People had commented criticising them, comments were swiftly deleted and she posted a story ranting about it. But honestly, the lengths people go to for money, exploiting their own dead child, shocks me so much to my core. It shouldn’t shock me in the world we live in but it does, how do people sleep at night i really do wonder.

Gosh! It’s all Coming out now! You can never ever get away with these lies, the truth always outs, “what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive”
Imagine knowing that you’ve been rumbled, and you have speculation and dishonesty following you, whilst trying to grieve. I wouldn’t have that for any amount of money.

Is that the woman who went onto secure a job with Virgin Atlantic as cabin crew? With weekly stop overs in worldwide destinations?
I’m sure she was in “talks” with the queen of poorly children scams: Saffiya!
Did she never say where that money went? a similar charity to her child’s illness? Or was that GFM always originally intended for her personal use all along?

This is pretty sad but sums up in one photo the fact that diets don’t work long term, they are not sustainable. You cannot follow Slimming World forever even if you lose the weight, get their maintaining booklet. It’s nothing to do with willpover either, we are biologically driven to eat. As far as Harry’s subconscious brain is concerned he’s been in a famine and it’s raging to get him back to his old weight. Jack if you read this then look up “set point weight”, this is what your brain thinks is normal and it’s why you have regained.

Want to know why it says apricot? Because apricot and it’s seeds are recommended in some circles as a natural alternative to shrinking tumours.. sounds like a bottle of apricot seeds more than any specialist treatment, and that’s a whole new rabbit hole!

Im all for implementing alternative or natural medicines . Apricots do not cos thousands a month. There was no way she was on any medications until she got the freebies . Why not post photos of the real medications or visible pics of them. Just a joke these families and their wicked ways .

Anyone remember the Slaton Scam? They're the sisters from the show '1000lb Sisters' but they had a following on YouTube prior to that.

Tammy (who weighed around 43st) was really poorly with pneumonia and they thought she was going to die, so her sister Amy started a GFM to pay for a super size coffin to accommodate Tammy's body. Loads of people contributed but Tammy ended up recovering, then the GFM page disappeared (along with everyone's donations).

People asked for their money back but Amy claimed she gave the donations to her mother to help pay her bills! Nobody was refunded as far as I know.

100% agree. I don’t agree with people getting gastric bands fitted as it’s a mental condition, as to why someone cannot put down junk food. Myself included

Could anyone explain the difference, if there is one, between a CIO and a CIC please?

I found this site, not sure if it helps you or not. I don't understand much of it tbh. If your looking into in because of PTWM, the reasons for being a CIC will be solely to benefit herself.
