FATCAT 58,311 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 That is horrible if true! And they are committing fraud that way.AKA Crime. How foolish?!!Well, technically they're 100% clear that the money is going to buy CD's that will then be donated. So it's not fraud, they aren't lying. Purr more, hiss less.

gagzus 14,262 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 So, where are they taking the CDs? Are they going to meet and buy CDs from the HMV store or are they buying them and the store is donating them? they're buying the album both physically and digitally with the money and none of it is for any kind of donation, they're tricking people to give them money to try get Demi a number one album Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if that helps? They could still be lying, but I wouldn't assume that. What info are we going on here? (About them not donating, I mean) Purr more, hiss less.

Whispering 18,865 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'd be a lot more concerned with the hospital bill than getting a free CD. They're masking their cheesy "buy-out" as some kind of charity. If they were really interested in donating to the SickKids Hospital, they should have donated the money and just visited the kids with a listening party, or anything other than leaving a hundred CD's on the doorstep.Children's hospitals take donations all the time, and that includes new games, CDs, coloring books, books, etc. Of course, they will always take donations to help with expenses for families, but that doesn't mean they don't need other items donated as well. There are also strict guidelines about visiting sick kids in hospitals. They aren't going to let groups of random kids in, before they know about vaccinations and any illnesses or diseases individuals have in the past or present.

It just seems like since they received a letter from the SickKids event coordinator, they could have set something up. Either way, I just hope the kids aren't hoping for '25' instead Purr more, hiss less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangerous Man 9,245 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Demi fans Inflating Sales using Charity donations Demi Lovato fans are promoting a "charity buyout" for a sick kid hospital: Fans were asked to buy dozens of copies of her new albumNo money is being donated to the sick children. Instead, fans are asked to give away the albums to the hospital.and they set up a GoFundMe to buy even more albums, not to donate the moneyhttps://www.gofundme.com/demitorontobuyout This is so unjust of them the ACTUAL desperation and I thought us offering s-x for AP sales was bad What has the music industry and fans come to? Despicable. Makes you wonder how often this happens. tragic artist, tragic fans, tragic situation, etc That is horrible if true! And they are committing fraud that way. AKA Crime. How foolish?!! Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I'd be a lot more concerned with the hospital bill than getting a free CD. They're masking their cheesy "buy-out" as some kind of charity. If they were really interested in donating to the SickKids Hospital, they should have donated the money and just visited the kids with a listening party, or anything other than leaving a hundred CD's on the doorstep. STOP THIS DEMI HATING ALREADY Y'ALL NEEDS TO STOP FOR FUK SAKE! It's clearly stated in the poster that they are going to donate the ALBUM to the patient not the MONEY. They are not fooling people mess. In fact you guys are a mess. They asked for money to buy lots of copies of Confident and gave it to Demi's ill fans. THEY NEVER SAID THEY ARE GOING TO DONATE THE MONEY. THEIR CAUSE OF ASKING MONEY IS CLEAR, TO BUY ALBUMS FOR HER SICK FANS. YOU GUYS ARE TALKING TRASH ABOUT HER FANS WHERE IN FACT THEY ARE DOING IT FOR A GOOD CAUSE.. CLOSE THIS THREAD! /rant "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body."

Whispering 18,865 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 how the hell is Confident supposed to help people with Melanoma? Kids in hospitals lay and sit around a lot. Oftentimes, they can't even be around other kids, because they have to protect themselves from even the common cold. Therefore, things like games, movies, books, CDs are something they can enjoy.

Dangerous Man 9,245 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 how the hell is Confident supposed to help people with Melanoma? So when a Gaga fan with cancer receive a free copy of ARTPOP shouldn't be happy because it won't cure his illness? Mess. "A little less conversation and a little more touch my body."

Either way, I just hope the kids aren't hoping for '25' instead you know, I'm pretty sure most kids would prefer Demi over Adele...especially since most kids know Demi from tv and the subject matter on Adele's albums probably doesn't appeal much to younger children.
