To this day, I think the thing that pisses me off most is he *actually was a homeless man in need, and they could have done actual good work* with those donations, helping not just him, but other homeless as well. Instead they turned it into a greedy shit show that I've seen people use as their reasoning for not donating to charities or trying to help the homeless in anyway. They didn't just give an 80% fake story to increase the funds they could collect, and use them inappropriately, they actively damaged and hindered really good causes.

Unpopular opinion (?), but I'm not particularly mad at Johnny for his part in this. It sounds like two relatively well-off people used his image in a money-making scheme without letting him know first, and when he found out, he's like "well, I might as well gain something from it, too." A homeless man is in a disadvantageous position. There's a difference between getting yourself off the street and purely being greedy.

Given Bobbit was a legitimate former homeless person, if he wasn't getting a good amount of money that was rightfully owed to him, he could sue them because I mean, being in prison is barely a step back from being homeless. Some would even call it a step forward. So his worst case scenario of him going to prison as well wasn't that much worse than being homeless already.

I can imagine several reasons why they'd donate so much for this one cause. -Because donating a little bit to a big viral fund is easy, quick, cheap and gets that "I'm a good person who helped someone" feeling without needing to think much about it; -Because they get to talk about how they "played a part" in the wholesome story everyone is talking about and feel good about themselves some more whenever they hear about it; -Because they get to hear on the news about how their money helped save this one man, instead of not being sure how much their donations actually did for a bunch of people they might never get to see depending on how they donate; -Because they just aren't used to seeing homeless people where they live and honestly felt sympathy once "homelessness" had a face; -Because they felt guilty for not donating when everyone else was; There's probably plenty more. People don't usually see situations very objectively once it goes viral. If anything, whether positively or negatively, I think we tend to feel much strongly about it, since it see it everywhere.

Yeah exactly, I'm in Philly,I live around where the situation happened ,there is a major issue with the homeless situation and opioid situation, we all knew that there is no way a homeless person would be given their last 20 for gas. Especially like you said gas was 2/3 at this time too.

@Ollie Nguyen I mean when I was working at a gas station I had people trying to fill up in plastic that couldn’t handle it so well and denied the sale. If they didn’t make it so obvious they were about to use a gallon milk/tea/water jug then I probably would’ve took the money. But yea it’s not really believable that a homeless man would be jugging around a 5/10 gallon gas filler.

It's absolutely revolting. I totally regret having a generous nature/helping people. This is only one of a few occasions I was tricked - a few times I donated money to a person on FB. Luckily it wasn't alot, well not in the hundreds or thousands but still it was alot at the time. I wanted to help because I know too well what it's like to be in dire straits & I felt sorry for this sweet elderly woman in my country. She lived interstate & others had helped her out too but after a month her FB & messenger account was gone, couldn't find her anywhere. She just disappeared. I wanted to text her to find out if she was doing ok.. I feel for anyone who has been tricked & has actually lost large amounts of money because they genuinely wanted to help someone..

So Bobbitt was an actual homeless veteran, but the story of helping them out was fake. Honestly I don't think he should take much blame at all for this scam. Regardless of the feel-good story, donators wanted to help out a homeless vet battling drug addiction, and that part of the story was true. He barely even did anything wrong, he just went along with their story. Then the couple got so greedy that they only paid him a small fraction of the money, and spent the rest on themselves instead of creating the trust they promised. Bobbitt was rightly angry that they had stolen the money, so he sued them, which led to the whole thing unraveling. They probably intended to scam him the whole time. Thankfully, Bobbitt has so far only been sentenced to probation and must attend a drug-treatment program. As of May 2022 his sentencing for the federal charges was postponed, and he told a reporter he was doing well and ready to put the whole debacle behind him. He looked much healthier and seemed to be living a better life now.

Take solace in the fact that regular acts of kindness and generosity go unnoticed and unannounced on a regular basis. When I was suddenly homeless (aong, unhappy story I don't want to relive right now) I found myself staying in a motel. Due to the housing market in Arizona, I had difficulty finding a place to live. Despite raises every year I had been priced out of the market for even a studio apartment. Arizona is a mess. I couldn't afford long at this motel either. The cheapest one that allowed my cats was 100 a night aka 3100 a month... more than the apartments I couldn't afford. Well, a youtuber who has no desire to be made public sent me around a grand over venmo to keep me and my cats fed and sheltered until I finally found a room for rent with some awesome roomates. Just moved in Saturday in fact. Thank you, Adam, you are an actual real life angel.

Someone I know, their family refused to give them their inheritance that they had a legal right to, because they relapsed into drugs and homelessness. We kept telling em, instead of wasting the money yourself (becazse how is that better than letting HER waste her own money, and how does that justify stealing & leaving your supposedly "beloved" sister in the dirt?) why don't you buy her a small flat that she cannot sell, or set up some kind of fund where there are limits, unless she gets clean. Then she would 1. be not homelss and 2. she would have a proper motivation too get clean. But now, shes still homelss,, knows her family is trash - just socially accepted trash -, the money is gone within one year, nobody speaks a word about it. The thing that bothers me the most is the hypocrisy that they ALWAYS claim "we love her so much, we wish she wasn't homelesss :( we wish she didnt relapse". Ughh, greed. I sometimes hate humans.

This gofundme looks so luring and tempting to do. But there's a saying: What you do in the dark will always come to light.

This is why I don't donate to ANY online fundraisers. I leave that money for the dudes I know damn well are homeless because I see them sitting on the street, in person every time I head for college or go to the store, rain or shine, and for the charities I know DAMN well are working their asses off, because I see them working around this city or in the respective facilities, within this city.

It never ceases to amaze me that people will just spend the money all willy nilly, knowing full well that every case of something like this is found out about because of the spending. There was a case of a guard in a bank that stole $17million, he got away with it till some of the others started spending insane amounts of money.

I'm a legit homeless person and have a legit fundraiser. Everyone assumes I'm a bot or a scam. It's been tough trying to prove I'm real.

@@GDnewbie I got a cheap phone from my father and get free service and internet. What's really interesting is you think I shouldn't have a phone or internet just because I'm homeless. Good job, you want to make my life even worse. Wow, you must be a really great guy. It's people like you who make me just want to give up and end myself.

@@GDnewbie you'd know that anyone who is below the poverty line can get free cell phone service and internet. But you probably don't know anyone in that situation. You've probably never had to legitimately worry about how your going to live. Today I had to make sure I got ice because it's the only way I stay cool when it's over 100°F. Last time I tried to go without ice I got heat stroke and it took a week to fully recover.

When I first heard this story, I thought it was weird that they just bought him an RV and had him live on their property... I understand they wanted to help him get over his addiction, but it also seemed like they were wanting to spend as little on him as possible.

I went to go for crowd funding , a few years back for my designs ,my project and chuffed wrote back that me , my foundation and the project had already been funded they e mailed me some numbers ! This was a shock to me cause it wasnt me ! Then later on some others raised monies for me to get me off a church doorstep ! I was on tv ! A homeless man gets a second chance at life ! Apparently others had been collecting $ they wouldn’t disclose ! Oh and the numbers disappeared on my email I got locked out ! So what should I do ????

honestly it feels like they wanted to scam everyone from the very beginning. think about it: they probably knew a sob story sells and they knew johnny here was in such a desperate situation that he would agree to it under the promise of potentially getting his life back together. after they score some money they spend some on him for PR sakes, withhold the rest and use it for themselves. they didn't think he would sue them for it or they'd get busted. they took advantage of the people who donated, they took advantage of the public and they also took advantage of johnny too. it was a get rich quick scheme from the start. sure johnny was part of it due to agreeing to go with the story but when you have nothing to lose but anything to win, you would also likely agree to it too, especially if your days as a homeless guy would be over as a result, so i have a bit of sympathy for him at the end of the day cause he was still their victim and shouldn't be put on the same level of guilt as the other two

It sucks having a kind heart. I once got burned by someone faking terminal cancer. It was less than $20 but the mere fact she’d fake it to play on people’s sympathy means she should burn in hell. Thankfully she got jail time too.
