Ever Use GoFundMe? Safe?

A friend of mine in California had a hip replacement ... a fund was set up for him through the service GoFundMe ... a crowdsourcing fund raising tool ... I would like to donate to his cause ... but am a bit leery with this service ... I did some research on Google and the only thing that came up was about avoiding scams ... but they don't use PayPal, but another payment service ... I would prefer not to have my financial info on too many sites ... any thoughts with this?

Thanks

I have donated to a friend who has cancer, it is legit and I trust it

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
