Unfortunately, I can confirm that he did pass away.

It still can be a scam.

Seems to be true but is odd there's no news about it.
Checked with Ascension Parish Sheriff's office. No record of this. Checked all the funeral homes in the area. Not in any of the Obituaries, either. I will check East Baton Rouge later.

I know Hope and I know where she lives in neighborhood off hwy 30. I don't think she would be involved in a scam like this

We are all adults here & can decide if we feel something is legit enough to donate
It’s not your business who & what someone else gives their money to, if it’s a scam & I lose 20.00 so be it


As long as you dont show up in another old people get scammed thread and how can this possibly happen I am totally okay with you throwing away your money on a scam

I have given concrete proof it is a scam and yet you donate.

Its not an old people thing. Its a dumb people thing.

The person who created the GFM is a local school teacher & works with a well known animal rescue

His mom posted on FB about losing her child

A well known poster here has family that confirmed the young man died

Just because he is connected to an unknown charity you claim it’s a scam?

I’m just trying to figure out where you’re going either this

Are you saying the kid really didn’t die? That a bunch of random people are in on it to split 1100.00?

This place, and Twitter, are opposite ends of the double sided a-hole that is the internet.

Yes

She also has a brand new Instagram account with a single post on it to donate at this link https://www.instagram.com/jesse_lynn__/

How odd that everything came together for his death 8 months ago to solicit money on even this website from a 20 post 4 year old account.

Yeah. Totally legit.

I’m missing donation request in Instagram

Where are you seeing he died 8 months ago?

I’m genuinely asking, not arguing

$24k is exempt from filing.

Just saying.

I'm just providing a reason as to why there is $0 listed as revenue. They wouldn't have filed it. They also wouldn't have any assets/liability if they already paid out that $24k he supposedly raised.

In and of itself, no, not suspicious.


If it truly was just a fund raiser for breast cancer awareness it wouldn't be some crazy large operation required to pull this off. There isn't going to be tons of assets and the only liability would be the amount raised.
