I just wanted to say that I think KeralaDee/BaileyDee is scamming mutual aid.

This is at least the third time - with months apart - I've seen someone post that they have a life threatening tooth abcess and need thousands of dollars. It's always the same post, although the previous ones appear to have been deleted, the payment methods requested are sometimes the same as those used for the poster BaileyDee who is always claiming to be having hypoglycaemic episodes and in desperate need of money.
Other people have made posts explaining why this person's behaviour is scammy, someone named sphere said they asked a doctor about this and BaileyDee would have to be treated for free at a hospital for hypoglycaemia and that would last for weeks, they would not need to make posts like this.
Someone named blockocheese already reported baileyDee and KeralaDee for being alt accounts for the same person and scamming mutual aid but nothing was done.
They also appear to have had another alt account, CassandraD, asking for money for food and using BaileyDee's paypal account. The CassandraD account was banned.
Also these accounts don't engage with hexbear in any way other than to ask for money. All of their posts are just mutual aid requests. https://hexbear.net/u/BaileyDee
Please ban this person as their scams mean other genuine people go without help.
Yep, same. I donated once and was inundated with Venmo requests for months afterward--sometimes several per day. Super glad to see this finally addressed, as it had gotten very obvious. This is the downside of the rule we have about not questioning any mutual aid posts (which is still probably the right rule to have).
