Is forgottenjews.org a Scam? Review of Forgotten Jews

Fraud alert

Sending money to russia must be a scam.

Can you say SCAM!!! The commercials are fraudulent. If someone is starving there is no way they look as healthy as these actors look. One half of a carrot a day really?

I agree and as Americans,every year the U.S. sends billions in aid, from our tax dollars, to these countries.

Why do The Jewish people not help their seniors that are starving in these commercials! They survive the holocaust, but cannot survive without outside funding! Why do the people in charge me 100s of 1,000 dollar salaries yearly. I find that to be scandalous!!!!!!

These Jews are in Russia! Why do you feed every homeless person where you live? You could spend every penny you have and not make a dent. Ignorant.

The wrinkly babushkas in their "one carrot a day" commercials not even speaking Russian, I'm a native speaker and can't detect a single word I could understand, and don't look anything Jewish. Most real Holocaust survivor Jews are either long gone or living elsewhere and are taken care of. These commercials are definitely are money making scheme targeting gullible goodhearted Americans.

$776,301: Yael Eckstein-Farkas (daughter of the founder of IFCJ) · $461,516: Robin Van Etten, Global Chief Operating Officer seems to me she is making 3/4 of a million dOLLARS OFF OF DONATIONS

That is always what I check for. How much do the CEO's of these organizations make. If they are a true charity to help people, they should be working for less than a for-profit company does. But many, including Wounded Warriors make 6 figure salaries when people think that their money is going directly to the Vets and not into the pockets of the administration. Always check to see where your donation will go.

I saw several TV commercials today. Mike Huckabee was a presenter. I was going to donate and then I saw him. I will never donate to this organization. He is not a person I would ever be affiliated with, after I saw him I looked up the organization and now know it is not for me. Shame on all of you for using these poor souls for your commercials.

Oh shut up you hipocrite they dont need your money you weren't going to donate anyway you demoncrat.

Maybe you could expand a little bit what is wrong with Mike Huckabee although I do think it is $650,000. If the CEO gets is a bit much for a nonprofit be the CEO of take a box a week or a month and leave the rest of the till.

So... You're not donating to an organization over a political figure?!
I guess the president of the BLM would be better??? Where No money was used to help anyone but them selves?? Million dollar homes in

I don't understand why they stress the Holocaust as the main reason these elderly people are struggling. They have lived 70 years since WWII ended. What has happened to them since that time?

This organization is a scam

Exactly!! I watch those commercials and shake my head everytime. They're ridculous and disingenuous.

it's about the father and daughter you speak of.Do a search for this

Criticism of prominent rabbI possibly scrubbed from internet due to fraud –

I believe we should get .fox .CNN.mnsb or any other country to go and check on this scam.then we will know.(don't say you are coming)

Is this a scam? They sometimes speak about WWII. That was over 80 years ago. We used to work in the USSR and even the poorest of poor do not live like that. Do they not have Nursing Homes for the Aged? As a volunteer myself, I would personally not let these women live in rags and huts. This org. needs to come across with more transparency. I believe it is run by a Father and Daughter. Hard to find info. Can anyone answer? Thanks.

The IFCJ’s refusal to work with or support Jews who believe in Jesus should give any Christian pause before giving any money to the IFCJ

Oh you prob won't get it cause they review the poster ..it's about the father and daughter you speak of.Do a search for this

Criticism of prominent rabbI possibly scrubbed from internet due to fraud – report

There's a story I found online about what you asking..

I think the ad on TV makes the charity look fake. I believe in the cause for sure but I think that tv ad should be replaced with one that is more realistic. I think the org. would collect more well deserved money. Where do these jewish women live.

You lose me when you talk about forgotten Jews in Ukraine who by the way are suffering now because of RUSSIA and yet immediately bring up N***s. Um No. it would be more believable to bring up actual current events. And while we’re at it let’s help ALL victims of the CURRENT war.

Interesting that the country with the highest per capita income, can't take care of widows and orphans. Maybe hold off buying a couple of F-35s and take care of their own.

Agreed

Germany has paid over 68 billion in restitution. Not to mention the pocket lining bunch who use this as RELIGIOUS. YOU AREALL A BUNCH OF HYPOCRITES. It’s embarrassing to know that public media lowers itself to allow these scams to continue. Germans in their 80s and 90s who were also the same age then had to live in potato cellars and when the bombing did stop those children had to see other kids shoes with legs still in them. It’s all bullcrap

Absolutely. I wonder if this is a scam. WWII was over 80 years ago. This is not much different than our Blacks demanding restitutions.

I agree

It is a scam to line the pockets of the CEO!! There are no Jews left from the Holocaust! Quit inundating tv with this c**p/SCAM!!

Get your ads off the T.V.!

Agree

I don't care if it's a scam or not! There are plenty of Jews to take care of their own!

Quit freaking asking for money on T.V.!
There are plenty of well to do Jews on this planet! Take care of your own!!!

Looks like the old women have been eating something - to me.

It’s legitimately a scam. There were all agreement. Not to mention the commercial lasts 3 minutes, and I loathe it. I’ve been to ukraine. Prior to the war, no one was hurting. And I went everywhere in that beautiful country. All this organization did was switch the holocaust jews out for the war in ukraine. Pathetic. But very clever. There’s a sucker born every minute.

I wouldn't use the word sucker. There are kind hearted people in this world, but this seems to be a scam.

Scam!

Because they keep talking about the N***s for one. Plus, what Father and Daughter who are wealthy and run this org. would actually exploit these especially women?

how is the forgotten jews a scam? what is your proof?

Did alot of checking, this is a total scam!

What checking did you do? What is your basis for determining that it is a scam? (I'm not saying that you're lying, but just saying you "did a lot of checking", doesn't tell me much.

The amount in that box won’t last but, a few days. How can it last a month. That one lady kisses the food…?? It’s pathetic…It’s shameful how they use just these few people over and over. I believe it’s a scam. The lady helping is wearing a big heavy warm coat and boots while these people have nothing and live in dirt. Why not help them with that ??

the name of the organization would have you believe it's for Christians and Jews (only giving to support a specific religious group seems wrong at all), but also I see no mention of giving to Christians on their website, seems to be only for Jews. Maybe a name change would be appropriate?

This is a sicking organization with sickening TV ads.
There are only about 3,000 hollicost survivors in the world.

We have worked in the Ukraine and even the very poor are not in this condition. They are a socialist state and are provided for. Please do not send your hard earned money to these scammers. There are plenty or highly paid CEOs around the world with a Jewish heritage. Do you think they let this happen??

It looks like a scam to me and I’m an 80 year old Jewish man
It’s a too expensive and too emotional ad to be other than a well thought out way go separate people from their money. Why doesn’t mike Huckaby get a few wealthy US billionaires to give a donation and save on the ad costs? Because it’s a scam, that’s why

If Mike backs anything you better bet his pockets and his cronies pockets are being lined.

And the founder of it has a net worth over $5 million not counting her husband

In the latest commercial, one of the poor hungry elderly ladies has fairly large dianond and gold earrings and the other one shown has large gold hoop earrings. My father was 17 when he joined the Navy to fight in WWII and he would be 100 years old in 2023. Didn't these ladies have any life at all? They must have been very small children when the war ended, and while the holocaust was tragic and horrible they must have had some recovery I hop as they grew into adulthood. Husbands, children, etc? Surely they didn't live in poverty their entire lives? I'm not heartless, just confused.
