BIG BROTHER 19! SPOILER THREAD! "SUMMER OF TEMPTATION"

[RedSox68]

I saw Raven GO Fund me account was taken down when she was in the Big Brother House.

She had a Go Fund Me Account? Wonder why it was closed.

My guess would be fraud. I would think if she claiming to be deadly sick and goes on a competitive reality tv show makes you wonder how sick she really is. That's just my guess.

Ahhh, gotcha (or they got her). That was a stupid move on her part. Wonder if it would have made a difference if she hadn't mirated about it so much! Well, as far as I'm concerned, she just dropped to a level below both Cody and Paul!

I'm reading elsewhere its been re-opened and theres close to $5,000 in there and the goal is $200,000

It's her fans making the donations, why when she is in the running for a half million, would you give her your hard earned cash?
She also purchased a fully loaded brand new Hyundai before going into the house and then is asking for $$$ to pay for her medical bills. I don;t know about this girl, I'm very skeptical. Also, notice how BB has not made a package about her illness. Theres video of her on CNN as a teenager talking of her disease as well. I can't believe BB would put a terminally ill houseguest on the show, what if "it happens" while she's in the house???

I was wrong it still there. I thought It had been taken down.

Sorry, but I think this is very questionable. If she is that bad off, she shouldn't be on a TV show! So if she's not bad enough to indeed participate on a TV show, why should she be given money to help her medically? I am sure there are much needier kids and families out there that could really use this money to pay bills and not loose their homes, much less buy a brand new car!

I saw Raven GO Fund me account was taken down when she was in the Big Brother House.

I also heard the account was taken down after people with the same disease were saying they also had gofundme's to help with health costs but they were asking for $20K where Raven's family was asking for $200K. So I think that too brought on a lot of questions if her family is a bunch of scammers. There have apparently been a bunch of GoFundMe's from Raven's family prior to BB. A lot of people were saying her mom has munchausen by proxy no clue if it's true, but some of the things I have read she certainly has the characteristics of that, but then again you can't always believe what you read on the Internet either. So I'm just going to go by what I am seeing and to me I do not think she is terminal. Does she have a disease, yes, but I cannot imagine BB would accept a contestant who was terminal, would make no sense.

I heard the same thing, possibly they put it back up again.

I heard the same thing, possibly they put it back up again.

But it's still asking for $200,000. There is a section where you can complain about the account -- I wonder if anyone will do that?

 

[Mizzoufan]

She a Walton and from Ark. I guess it safe to say she not part of the walmart family.

Don't quote me but I believe I heard Raven say that she can have 9 things (pacemaker perhaps??) and she is on number 6. Anyone hear that on BBAD quite awhile ago that can clarify what I am saying? My friend had a stomach pacemaker due to the same condition because of diabetes and has now had her stomach removed when it stopped working for her. I wish we knew the whole truth and story.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Here is Mayo Clinic's overview of her condition. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/gastroparesis/home/ovc-20323128

I feel bad for her I just think she's milking for all she can.

She said she is up to 9 out of 15. People who also have this pacemaker have said they know people in the 60's who are now on 13, so again she can live a long life. Again, no one is questioning her illness, people are questioning if she is using her illness as a means to make money and gain sympathy and it certainly does seem that way.

Yep, and no where does it say it's terminal. She is definitely playing her illness up for money and sympathy, which ticks me off because it's people like her that makes other people skeptical about helping those in need because they don't' want to be scammed. I'm not saying her illness doesn't suck, it certainly is not something I would want and I do feel bad that she has to deal with it, but that doesn't give her the right to work on people's sympathies to get money for her to buy a new car, travel, etc

 

[DisneyLover1217]

Sorry about the triple post. The GoFund me was taken down, seems like it was just put back up. Whether it was allowed to or it was just put up to see how much more money they could get before being caught again who knows.

Here is another article that even some of the houseguests are questioning her honestly about how sick she is. Apparently she has two terminal illnesses, one of which doesn't have a name (how is that possible). I have to find where I read that but in the meantime here is more info: http://www.inquisitr.com/4396332/bb...ing-donations-offering-refunds-was-it-a-scam/

I read that Raven was once featured in a local paper because she only had two years to live. It's been more than 2 years. I'll see if I can find it.

Here is what went down yesterday. http://www.bigbrotherdaily.com/big-brother-19/day-41-recap.html

WOW

Exactly why I posted it. I hate judging someone without all the facts but all the pieces are not adding up.

Here is a poll ranking popularity, granted this is not CBS's official poll, but I think this poll is mostly voted on by live feeders. Jessica is pretty high up there for most of the time, it's very possible she won the hex, of course who knows for sure: http://jokersupdates.com/ubbthreads/bbratings/showrankings.php/showrankings.php
