His Name is Used for Corona Donation Fraud, Anne Avantie: Very Inhumane

Kapanlagi.com - The Corona outbreak has moved a number of public figures to donate, including renowned designer Anne Avantie. Through her foundation, she provides various assistance, one of which is making Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers.

In addition, Anne also opens donations for anyone who wants to help. This good intention apparently is exploited by irresponsible people to collect fake donations. This was revealed from Anne's post on Saturday (28/3) last week.

Facebook account under the name Anne contacted several people while asking for donations. Through her Instagram, Anne emphasized that it wasn't her and she never asked for donations personally.

"I, Anne Avantie, never beg from individuals but my bank account number is stated in every post on my bio/data in my profile," writes this woman from Semarang - Central Java.

2. Report to the Authorities

Anne firmly announced the person behind this scam. She has also reported it to the authorities. "The person is conducting a fundraising campaign called 'Caring for PPE' claiming to be me, Anne Avantie, and I have reported it to the authorities," writes Anne.

For this designer who is usually called 'Bunda,' this scam is extremely inhumane amidst the ongoing Corona pandemic. "With deep regret, this good intention is tarnished by people who lack humanity," she concludes.
