Sorry to upload such an image-heavy post, but people need to know that someone has already set up a fake fundraiser for Markiplier. Their Twitter name is Alana Kara Belakorté (a suspiciously new account with very few followers - when it comes to scams that isn’t a good sign).
Many people have recieved a tweet from this account, each one saying that so-and-so on Twitter has set up a fundraiser for him (it can be found on the Give Forward site, sadly I can’t link it from mobile as I can only clipboard add one thing to mobile-made posts - but it’s there).
Each one links to the same fundraiser page, set up by one person - going by the name Nicole Bolton (this is likely a fake name also) and all tweets originate from the same ‘Bella’ account. Two different names? Not a good sign either.
They give no indication that Mark has advocated their actions (because he hasn’t) and no information detailing how they plan on getting the money to him (something people genuinely raising money for real charities would be able to tell people).
Several people on Twitter appear to be equaly suspicious, and have told ‘Alana’ as such. ‘She’ (Alana) has said they will take it down if people wish, presumably just to silence people’s worries - as she still hasn’t closed it despite making several replies saying she would.
Mark has NEVER asked any fans to set up fundraisers or sent him money for his treatment or medical bills, and he never would.
Things like this don’t just exploit good natured fans, but many people who think it is real will think Mark is taking advantage of his fans as well - which he’d never do.
This is not me been some killjoy trying to cynicaly stop someone doing a good thing - carefull searching through the Twitter account and fundraiser page clearly shows that something is not right, and given how considerate most of Mark’s fans are there is a very real chance a lot of people might want to donate to someone who claims they want to help.
I’m only one unknown person on Tumblr, but please help get this post seen by bigger Tumblr users - particularly Jacksepticeye and others who will likely have many game loving fans, as they will likely have a lot of followers who like Mark as well (Mark’s fans in particular need to be made aware - and need to be made aware that this kind of thing is likely to happen).
