Someone is using Paypal to collect donations to free the terrorist who bombed the Boston Marathon.

Wonder what Papal would say about that, if they knew?? Bet they wouldn't be too happy...

      Hope not!!

      Anyway, I called Paypal and they will look into it, in the meantime seems like when you click the donate button the Paypal page does not exist but they have a paypal email you can send money to.

      Hopefully Paypal will shut this down ASAP!!

      I am not an expert but won't it be a better scam if they were pretending to collect for victims or something!

      I mean who in their right mind would want to send even a penny to free some criminals who killed 3 people and wanted to kill lot more.

        Agree ... you'd think they'd pick a more popular cause to scam.

    tpw is right.

    To first stoop that low twice, well, maybe karma will have some fun with them down the road.

    Gotta love the internet right? **rolls eyes**

    Sounds like a great way to extract money from stupid people.

    Although anyone that donates is probably going on a government watch list soon...

    It might be an opportunistic scammer, or it might be one of the hundreds of groupies that actually believe he's innocent (just because he's "cute"). Either way, it's disgusting.

    Actually, once he is bailed out, he is being turned over to the victims families.

      Thats how it should be - the victims SHOULD ALWAYS have a say in the punishment

        Hate to be honest here , but PayPal is just as big of a scumbag as these killers. I'm sure paypal won't do anything about it.

      I doubt it , but in Russia ( former republic ) they don't know much of whats going on. They will tell lies and they will believe it, meanwhile the parents will just sit back and collect the money . The PayPal link is valid and does work.

        It's not up to a payment processor to make moral judgments.

        There are people so twisted they will automatically take the side and scream about the "rights" of mass killers. We see it every time - nothing new.

        yea paypal needs to handle that, although to give them benefit of the doubt you can't control where someone is posting up donate buttons in every dark corner of the internet, but now that they have been notified by the above member it should be taken down.

        I hope the government will request a list of donators.
        As far as I'm concerned they're possible terrorist and
        should be considered as such.

      You are right !

      Actually PayPal will probably setup a PayPal site to fight against taking it down !

      Now they can double the money !

    And you are linking to it... Why? Just doesn't seem like it's worth giving them exposure.

    I would certainly avoid being one of the donors..I'm pretty sure it could be turned into something like financing terorism and you end up on a black list or something...why help those guys anyway?
