Summary

A Florida woman, Maitlin White, got three years in prison for impersonating the family of a flood victim, Chloe Childress, and setting up fake GoFundMe and SpotFund pages to scam donors during a time of tragedy. She even linked one campaign directly to her bank account. When authorities uncovered her scheme—including a recorded confession—she claimed she was just a single mom looking for quick cash. The court didn’t reveal exact amounts stolen, but the punishment was clear: three years behind bars for exploiting grief.
