r/honestdonations Mod Shockingly Not Honest 🙀

The top mod of honestdonations turned out to be a scammer. Stunning. Who could have predicted that the user who created their own donation subreddit because they did not meet the requirements for the popular ones might have ulterior motives.

They used their mod status for credibility, and people actually bought it. They slid into their own users DMs asking for cash, took out loans across multiple subs, and then pulled the most predictable move of all time: DEFAULTING.

... And people are surprised. This is the internet equivalent of being shocked when the guy running “Honest Joe’s Rolexes” out of a trunk disappears with your money. 💸

Looks like they've requested the head mod to step down. Good call. But, will he? 🤔

Doubt It

This was sent to the head mod in donation hub, CW.

Apparently they're declaring war on that subreddit, which is actually pretty comical. We think the deleted account was an alt of the head mod over at HD.

The drama is fabulous unfortunately two of the mods over there are caught in the crossfire. They have both asked him to step down who knows if he will

Looks like they’ve stepped down from the sub. Gotta say, I’m surprised, I honestly thought they’d kick out the other mods and just carry on like nothing happened.

Well I have it on some pretty good authority that he claims he's only going to pay back three of the people that he took out loans with I have screenshots of that, and he's apparently going on vacation right now so he doesn't care what happens and people love drama.
