Just an idea what if you include a vanity URL that redirects to Dan's DDMS post or to the PSA thread? Something like check out AvoidFrumScammers.com for more information/a discussion on this topic

I think calling them scammers takes away from the power of the ad. The point is that it's not safe even if the "borrower" is well meaning.

I like it a lot! The danger is expressed very well.

Some touch-up critique:

In the last paragraph:  connect sentence 2 and 3.  "you’ll be left with the debt like lots of people who recently ,,,, "
And the last line:  Once you’ve told them to stop charging your card, cancel that card so they can’t charge you any more.
Maskim to 2 but not 1

I say this only half jokingly, but if you turn it into a raffle of sorts, I'm sure you'd raise more.

Wouldn't it be helpful just passing the ad around on social media?

I think if we spend a little on these ads then we might save alot more by not needing charity, GoFundMe, etc campaigns for friends and neighbors that lost everything due to this

How much are you hoping to collect for an ad to be published once or twice in a handful of publications?

Put that money into making a 1 minute video that can be shared on whatsapp and will be picked up for free by every website, that would have a far greater reach and impact.

I hear...  I'm not someone that's good at that. But I am ready to chip in to whatever is needed to bring awareness. I know a few people first hand that got screwed over the years. And I actually tried warning them. But hopefully this PSA will help even one person.
