This campaign raised $57K to repatriate a 'loving mother' killed in Lapu-Lapu festival tragedy. It was fake

May 1, 2025
GoFundMe removed a campaign claiming to be raising funds for a victim of the Lapu-Lapu festival tragedy Wednesday, saying it is refunding the more than $57,000 donated. A B.C. woman who reported her suspicions that the fundraiser was fake says she “couldn’t bear the thought” of people taking advantage of the community’s generosity in a time of tragedy.
