There's this really cool thing that a handful of diaspora Palestinians have committed a lot of time and effort to called vetting (maybe you've heard of it?) in which they speak directly with a fundraiser holder face-to-face or over phone/video call to verify all portions of a fundraiser. There are so many posts [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] that talk about the details of this process to verify that a fundraiser organizer, recipient, and the details are correct by verifying legal documents like proof of residence, photo ID, fluency in Palestinian-Dialect Arabic, family tree constructions, etc.

These vetters have been posting about Palestinian/Gaza/Arab culture/Islam/etc. for a really long time, [1] [2] [3] (these are Wayback machine links to the tumblr accounts of 90-ghost, el-shab-hussein, & nabulsi before you start crying "but, you can post backdate on tumblr!") [4] (moayesh's Instagram because his tumblr is fairly new) meaning that they didn't just pop up after Oct 2023 to start posing as a qualified individual. They are real diaspora Palestinians with stories to tell and culture to share.

GFM also has strict requirements for withdrawing money, needing evidence of a bank account from a country they service and a solid way to transfer funds from that bank account to the recipient's bank account. If the funds are withheld from the intended recipient, that can be reported to and resolved by GFM.

If you're too overwhelmed by trying to distinguish between scams and real fundraisers, then whatever. That's your problem, not everyone else's. You don't need to publicly announce to everyone that you're too busy/tired/incompetent/ignorant to properly investigate fundraisers, so everyone else should stop supporting them as well. There are plenty of vetters and scam-busting blogs dedicated to helping people distinguish between real and fake.

Donating to established nonprofit aid organizations is absolutely a good deed and is much more straightforward, but it's not the only way to help. Especially with the repeated aid blockages, sometimes Ghazan families need a more direct flow of money to pay for the ridiculously inflated cost necessities (I recently received a video from Farah wherein she states that a bottle of dish soap cost $50. $50!!!!) as well as save up for evacuation costs once the Egyptian border crossing opens. (Thousands of dollars!)

With a few minor parts removed, here is a copy/pasted text that was originally in a reblog but now in its own post since the original account is gone. Links that didn’t work anymore have been left out. I figured it’d be useful for anyone who needs it.

Remember:

If anyone wants to commission you, they wouldn’t ask if your commissions are open on a recent post that says they are open

You don’t pay to upgrade your PayPal account

Real people would use your preferred payment method for commissions

If someone wants to buy your art in a comment, it’s probably just a scammer wanting it as an nft

Don’t give strangers your email address just because they want to pay you $300 for a commission of a pet

The email they send you is a fake PayPal email it’s not real at all don’t click anything

The scammers didn’t send you money for that commission they also don’t want your art

Check the likes of any blank blog asking if your commissions are open and look at the comments section to see if they’ve been spamming the same thing

Stop giving internet strangers your email address if they want to pay you $300 for a pet commission if it’s a blank blog with no posts

Seriously if your using some kind of commission website these people don’t need your email address at all their just lying to you when they say they have “issues”

If you are talking to these scammers cut contact immediately and block them

$300 is a lot for a commission and to some it’s a regular price but for most of us that’s way over our commission prices but scammers don’t care and unfortunately a lot fall for it

(Art tags for visibility because these bots tend to use those tags for spamming artists)

In regards of the Trump government scraping all trans inclusion in its queer information portion of its websites I have made this thing. Spread the word. Don't let them pretend we never existed.

P.S: Don't like! Reblog! <3

above all else a trans woman is a person. above all else a trans women is a woman who goes to the same grocery store as you and buys fruits in the same grocery cart as you and goes home and eats her dinner the same as you. above all else a trans woman is a woman who dresses like you do and talks the same way you do. above all else a trans woman is a woman who wants to be cared about the same way you want to be cared about and a trans woman is a woman who makes friends the same way you make friends. above all else you should care about trans women because they are people. treat her as such.

btw since this is getting notes i want to remind everyone that the way to treat trans people, especially trans women and transfeminine people, is to embrace them as your equals. you cannot help people by separating them from yourself. the way to treat trans women is not to say "i just can't be normal about them, they're all so attractive!". don't do that. don't measure trans women by their attractiveness. don't stereotype them. just recognize them as your neighbors. trans women are people who work at convenience stores and do their laundry at the laundromat and brighten up when they wear clothes they like and sing along to the music they love.

above everything else they are just normal people and you need to remember that. you need to fight for them and listen to them and appreciate them for who they are because they are people. and they deserve to have wonderful average lives just the same as you. ok
