Scammers looking to make a quick buck on the missing Titanic-bound submersible tried to crowdsource off the tragedy … but GoFundMe is cracking down.
Here’s the deal … we did some digging and found several GoFundMe pages seeking donations for search and rescue efforts, and money for the missing passengers’ families.
Problem is … these GoFundMe pages are NOT legit … and the platform is taking action, and scrubbing the pages in some cases.
A rep for GoFundMe tells TMZ … their Trust & Safety team is monitoring the platform for fundraisers related to the OceanGate sub, and 5 fundraisers have already been removed.
The folks behind the bogus fundraisers appear to have lofty visions … most of them set six-figure goals, with others seeking upwards of $2 million.
The sub went missing Sunday, sparking a huge search and rescue mission … but it turns out the submersible imploded, killing all 5 people inside, and they may have died the very day they set out for the Titanic shipwreck.
