Yes, I usually avoid using GoFundMe unless I personally know about the situation. especially if someone is performing the action on behalf of another. When I contributed to someone's medical bills on a GoFundMe page set up by a friend for someone else, I later learned that their insurance had already paid for everything. As a result, they paid for the funerals entirely with donations. Even though it was for a good cause, it made me aware of the fact that occasionally people put up situations like this in an effort to assist others without fully understanding if they are required to do so.
