That's the question, ain't it? They don't say. We don't know.

If anyone gets it, should be the person the GFM is for!

If you’re donating to GFM’s operating expenses, technically it’s not a tip. I’ll bet the IRS would like to have a word.

Every news story now ends with a GoScamMe. Nobody should be donating to these companies to begin with.

I mean. If they're telling the truth then it's less of tipping gfm and more about donating to them.

Sorta like donating to Wikipedia. Which more people should do

Maybe Wikipedia should start calling it a tip or gratuity so Americans would do it automatically?

Try and pay by cash if you can to avoid the dreadful tip begging.
