Concord police investigating fake GoFundMe for car crash victim
Briefly

A GoFundMe campaign allegedly set up to cover funeral costs for Hannah Wasserman, one of three Concord high school seniors killed in a Florida car crash, has been determined fraudulent. The page raised over $8,000 but was reported by the victim's family and subsequently removed. All donations were refunded, and police are investigating the incident. GoFundMe confirmed that no funds were ever accessed by the organizer. The tragedy has prompted an outpouring of support from the community as students remember the victims.
"When there's an unspeakable tragedy, people have a deep urge to help and provide comfort to those affected - it's not uncommon for someone to create a GoFundMe to help another individual after a news report."
"All funds remained safely held by our payment processors during our review process to help ensure funds were safely delivered to the family."
