Mexican journalist Pamela Cerdeira put Apple AirTags in two items before donating them to victims of the earthquake last year in Turkey. The AirTags proved they never left Mexico City, and instead were sold to local market vendors for resale. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uSc3bEQoCY

@MikeElgan Not surprised at all. They say Mexico’s biggest problem is government corruption but I say it is now part of our culture itself; we will sell out, extort, and abuse each other just to make an extra peso.

@MikeElgan this is why I don’t trust fund raisers

@MikeElgan they converted rhe donation to cash, did they send the money to a relief organisation in Tyrkey, or did they pocket it. Sending money to pay for supplies near to the needs makes sense.

@quoidian It's not OK to lie to donors.

@MikeElgan it’s somewhat understandable organisations don’t want to deal with the logistics of privately donated bits and pieces when they can. send the money
