GoFndMe*

I have a transaction on my acct that I don't recognize. The dispute was determined to be unfounded and the transaction stands. The recipient reads as GoFndMe*. Is that how a legitimate GoFundMe transaction would appear?

From a google search, yes that is how it would show on twitter and instagram.

I found that it is a malicious website when I checked my donation. Contacted person doing the fund raising for someone else, no answer yet.

I didn't recognize the charge but was suspicious because it was on my Visa card and I usually use Paypal for online donations. Plus it added $5 US to cover CC charge which I don't usually do.  While on the phone with Visa, I realized it said gofndme not GOFUNDME.  I could not get the full name of the beneficiary so I decided to dispute it and read my statements more carefully going forward.
