The only silver lining to the Damar Hamlin incident on Monday was to see the entire NFL community come together in this time of need. There was only a singular voice of support behind it and nothing else. Even the GoFundMe page set up by Damar to buy toys for underprivileged kids received outstanding support from the people. However, in the middle of all this, there were those who saw the opportunity to use this grim situation for their own good.

Scammers are using Damar Hamlin as bait for unsuspecting people

Multiple cases of fake GoFundMe pages sporting similar names and causes to one of the Buffalo Bills‘ player have been reported. While there are people who are trying to support Hamlin and his family through all of this. There are also those who are trying to fraud the former for their own personal gains. According to Marca, the website is continuously taking down these pages, but there is always more to deal with. The NFL world has found this ordeal “sickening”.

The platform has told TMZ via a spokesperson that there’s only one verified fundraiser on their platform. That is the one Hamlin set up and the one his family confirmed. It is called: The Chasing M’s Foundation Community Toy Drive.
