Chapter 280 280. Bad money drives out good money

To put it simply, there are some fundraising businesses on the Internet, which are mainly aimed at patients who are suffering from diseases and have no money for treatment. They can crowdfund from the entire Internet, which can be regarded as a kind of online charity fundraising.

This was originally a good thing, but after there were too many related companies, it caused various problems.

For example, the platform needs to be profitable, it needs to charge service fees, whether the information of the fundraiser itself is transparent, the flow of funds, etc.

Among them, some platforms have begun to engage in pornographic operations.

He He's funeral company does a lot of business in hospitals. Although people are not waiting at the door before they are dead, it is more or less connected with the hospital. Wherever the patient is critically ill or about to die, he will be notified in advance. A sound.

After all, the capacity of hospital morgues is also limited, so being able to arrange visits to the funeral home as soon as possible can also alleviate the pressure of admission.

But recently, there have been some more salesmen outside the hospital wards.

These salesmen are not from the funeral company, but promoters of a certain crowdfunding platform.

“These promoters will find the families of those patients, ask them to submit fundraising applications, and then draw a handling fee from the money raised. Originally, these have nothing to do with us. If they can really save people, then it is a good thing. "

He He said with a melancholy face.

“However, promoters of these fundraising platforms will ask patients in the entire building, no matter how big or small their illness is, whether the patient’s family has money for treatment, which has caused a lot of commotion. The most important thing is that they also voted for this article The news has caused a lot of trouble for our business.”

"Why do they want to use the news to smear you?"

Qiao Mu found it strange. Let’s not comment on what the promoters of these platforms did. They had no conflict of interest with the funeral company. Why would they buy black manuscripts?

No matter how much money is raised, those who cannot be saved will still die, and they will have to have funerals in the end, so why bother.

"Maybe it's because I said a few words casually when I met them in the hospital?"

He He was a little unsure.

"what did you say?"

"At that time, a deceased person had just passed away. Because I had booked a funeral service, I went over to communicate with the family members. Before I met the family members, I found that the promoters were dragging the family members to ask them to sign up for crowdfunding. I thought about this person If they are still asking for crowdfunding after they have already left, that is not fraud. I just warned them not to go too far, otherwise I would report them. Now that I think about it, maybe I thought I had already reported it, so I acted preemptively. "

He He held his chin and said while recalling.

"Did you finally report it?"

Qiao Mu started eating melon mode.

"Nonsense, of course I reported it, but the platform only removed this one. I think there may be a lot of falsehoods in it."

He He puffed up his chest and said.

"On the one hand, they are deceiving people. On the other hand, if there are too many such frauds and no one believes in such public donations, then those who really need it will not get help."

“Bad money drives out good money!”

Qiao Mu felt the same way.

When I was in college, many people who received subsidies for poor students wore brand-name clothes and shoes, which was really annoying.

"Don't worry, I will go to the hospital today to check the situation. If they are really liars, then I will never let them go!"

Qiao Mu has a strong sense of justice.

After all, those who donate money are ordinary people with good intentions. Guys who cheat both sides must be punished.

Moreover, maybe there may be abnormal effects.

Qiao Mu asked He He about the specific hospital, then left the funeral company and took the bus to the destination.

On the way, he also asked Xiao Ai to check the relevant information of this platform.

After all, one cannot believe everything He He and his family say.

Thanks to Xiaoai's powerful information processing capabilities, Qiao Mu obtained all the detailed data on this platform, including water flow.

Of course, Qiao Mu couldn't understand these data, so he asked Xiao Ai to sort out the data and come up with several conclusions.

First of all, there are now more than half a million fundraising projects on this crowdfunding platform. One-fifth of the projects are fictitious projects where the recipients are dead or out of danger, and one-quarter of the projects are fundraising projects. The people themselves have no financial difficulties, and among the remaining projects, there are also some projects where the amount of donations is much higher than what is actually used.

Calculating this, more than half of the fundraising projects are purely money-making.

"So why is there so many fake projects and this platform hasn't been hit by a storm?"

Qiao Mu asked Xiao Ai a question.

Under normal circumstances, this level of fraud would cause big news if only one person in a hundred people discovered it. However, the online reputation of this platform is not a big problem, which is surprising.

"Reporting to the owner, according to the test, the platform has a return procedure. If the project is judged to be over or the fundraising fails, the donation will be returned to the donor. However, the procedure takes a period of time, usually three to five months. Therefore, I judge that it is largely Some users still don’t know the specifics of the platform.”

Xiao Ai on the phone replied.

"I see, you're so smart."

Qiao Mu probably understood.

For example, a project raised 100,000 yuan, but only 20,000 yuan was used for treatment. The remaining 80,000 yuan will be returned to the person who donated the money in proportion. However, this process takes several months, and the interest generated in the process belongs to the platform, and There are also promoter fees, which are relatively normal. After all, platform operation and wages are costs.

Those fictitious projects are completely different. They are equivalent to earning several months of interest for nothing. They are a waste of money.

Moreover, it has only been two months since the platform was launched. It is hard to say whether the money will be refunded after three months.

Secondly, the normal fundraising procedure requires the platform to review various circumstances of the applicant and a certificate issued by the hospital, which is very cumbersome. However, this platform does not require these at all. As long as they are customers developed by promoters, they can simply fill in the information. Publish, a lot of people they found covet this and publish on the platform.

Finally, even the use of donations itself may be falsified, and it is difficult for people who are not particularly familiar with hospital procedures to discern the clues from those whitewashed reports.

How should I put it? There are probably a lot of good people in this world and they are not very good at questioning them.

"There's a big problem."

Qiao Mu was sure that there was something wrong with this platform.

I just don’t know if there is any abnormal influence behind this. After all, these things are so immoral that it is hard to imagine that humans can do them.

He arrived at the hospital and as soon as he entered the corridor of the ward, he saw two people in suits and ties trying to persuade a man.

Qiao Mu didn't hear what they were saying clearly, but saw bright red words emerging from the heads of the two men in suits and ties.
