   Hey folks, just a quick heads up that the fundraiser for the Ugandan #LGBTQ+ refugees in #Kakuma camp in #Kenya that I shared then quickly deleted was apparently a scam.

   Thank you to those who alerted me and to the instance they were on for looking into it and suspending the account also.

   They apparently hit reddit also. More details from there:

   It’s so sad that people do this stuff because there really are people out there in this situation who need help.

     @Huubje It should be removed now that the account is suspended (and I deleted my post very quickly so hopefully no one fell for it).
