Prosecutors said a New Jersey couple and a homeless Philadelphia man devised an elaborate ruse to cheat GoFundMe donors out of more than $400,000.

Burlington County Prosecutor Scott Coffina said on Thursday, Nov. 15, that that within hours of the GoFundMe campaign launch, Kate McClure texted a friend saying that the majority of the story was fabricated, according to NBC 10 Philadelphia.
