Secret tapes provide new twist in alleged $400K GoFundMe scam
2018-11-20
[NYPOST] One of the accused New Jersey GoFundMe fraudsters who allegedly scammed $400,000 from people over a supposedly homeless vet is now claiming that she’s the one who’s been had, according to secret recordings released by her lawyers Monday.

The tapes suggest that Mark D’Amico, 39, forced ex-girlfriend Kate McClure, 28, to peddle a phony tale of charity that fueled $400,000 in donations ‐ which the couple pocketed, the lawyers said.

"You started the whole f‐king thing, you did everything! I had no part in any of this, and I’m the one f‐king taking the fall," McClure rages at D’Amico in an unverified tape shared with "Good Morning America."

McClure and D’Amico claimed that homeless man Johnny Bobbitt, 34, gave McClure his last $20 after her car out of gas. McClure made the rounds on national media after she shared the heartwarming-but-bogus story on social media, and the couple eventually raised just over $400,000, ostensibly for Bobbitt.
