Concerns about Flares that Care

anyone else wonder if they might get to keep a percentage of the donations that went through Flares that Care..?

donating via their 'primary donation page' actually donates to "Flares that Care 2 benefiting Child's Play Charity".
because, even though the event seems to be cancelled, he keeps spamming that donation link.
while an actually direct donation would go to "Child's Play Charity" (which would also be a different link).

i'm just wondering why he would still be so concerned about donations going through flares that care, rather than actually directly..

edit, the difference:
https://donate.childsplaycharity.org/ ("Child's Play")
https://donate.childsplaycharity.org/0db6a8ab44425094824538ec7126aa7f ("Flares that Care 2 benefiting Child's Play Charity")

and don't get me wrong, i'm not saying it won't benefit child's play. i'm just wondering if snozen (and whoever else) is getting something out of it if people donate to child's play through their exclusive link.

flyingbuddyPlotchy actually joined one of my steam groups called anti scammers league a couple weeks ago and left this comment "lol who are these people I fucking scammed people out of 70 buds". Unfortunately I don't have the actual post he did because one of the admins had deleted th comment and kicked him from the group but um....yeah
He did after how ever say it was a joke so. He told me that the reason he got the trade ban was because someone from another country gifted him a steam gift card and then he put it on his account and it gave him extra money somehow, steam doesn't like that apparently and so they trade banned him, I call bs on that but has anyone heard of this kind of thing happening before?

Actually a friend of Plotchy's. (LVL 30 account friend on his profile under name Empy)
He used to be on a Highlander team and a member (Hazardous) gave him a gift code. The code was from the US and apparently valve doesn't like it when you use a US code in CAD.
Not gonna lie though, I was in a mumble with him while he scammed and the comments he made were pretty hilarious. (I didn't scam with him it was a team mumble)
But he actually did have good intentions with Flares That Care, although I don't know about snoven.

Meh Plotchy is a scammer. Either way I don't care if you trust him or not, I wouldn't with my hats.
Still he wasn't kidding about flares.
^ Don't know about snoven though

I don't think that link can be tampered with, nor do I think the event keeps any profit from it.

It's the other Paypal account which goes directly to Flares that Care which needs to be scrutinized.

Also, he's removed the remaining unsold items from the Steam Market. Maybe he'll surprise us and return them to the people who donated them. It would help remove some of the bitter taste this event has left in our mouths.

Snoven keeping the items for himself and KEEPING THE FUCKING MONEY FOR HIMSELF is absolutely out of this world fucked up. Unforgivable, unbelievable. Blaming the thread, that's above and beyond.

It's just branding many charity sites do. The link lets them track how many donations were made on behalf of the event.

i'm not saying that i'm convinced that the above is what's going on (i don't even know if this would be possible at all),
his behavior has just made me wonder.
the only other reason i can think of right now, why he'd still put something of an effort into getting donations, is to not look pathetic towards Child's Play.

@Crayboff
i realise that that might be why the link is there.
but why i'm wondering is because he's putting in effort.
i don't believe he truly cares, he is doing it for his own good.
so i'm wondering if he's just trying to pull donations in for his wallet or for his credibility/image.

I don't understand.. How does an internet charity event gather this much traction before anyone inquires as to whether the person behind it is trustworthy. This guy is clearly mentally handicapped but I'm really surprised it got this far before anyone else involved/actively supporting it decided to do their homework.

While it should've been noticed earlier to be fair a lot of real life scams have gone on for several years (Madoff) without anybody noticing.

It's just good people caught on now before more bad stuff could happen.

Charity events aren't made to give people charitable people a place to put their money, they're made to convince people to be charitable in the first place.
