The head of online fundraising platform Gofundme has said his organisation is always on the lookout for “concerning” behaviours and, in extreme cases, will shut fundraising pages down and return money to donors.

Tim Cadogan said human nature “means not everyone is always well intentioned so around the edges there is sometimes misuse”.
