Last year on 12th December I was involved in an online scam and lost $27 500. I have attached a police report in case someone thinks I am lying. I would really appreciate if I would get donations to recover this money as the police said that the chances are unlikely because it is very hard to trace cyber criminals.

These funds were going to go towards buying a home but now it's gone.

I was saving this money for 2 years in Australia and would really appreciate any kind of help, even if its only cents

Thanks very much in advance and I appreciate any kind of support

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
