Makes me wonder how many of these campaigns are fraudulent. You know, in cases when you don't have someone so stupid that they bring legal action against a co-conspirator because they got screwed over while committing theft by deception.

If I were a betting man I'd guess there's a small number of people running large scams on the site to net 5 or 6 figures in profit a year. Unlike donating to a charity where you have ample resources to research the organization you're donating to, you sadly can't get that donating to crowdfunding campaigns.
