I would never donate my bitcoin to any organisation without full proof of them being honest and reliable.

syriarelief.org is a scam:

1. The site was created yesterday.
2. The actual Syria Relief site, syriarelief.org.uk makes no mention of syriarelief.org, nor does it mention accepting bitcoins.
3. There was no announcement anywhere by Syria Relief, except by first time posters on reddit and bitcointalk.
4. The "COMPLETE YOUR DONATION USING A CREDIT / DEBIT CARD" button does nothing.
Thanks for letting us know. Previously I was sceptical about this service, but now I am sure.

I have a hard time donating my Bitcoins to charities... I don't know why.  I would prefer to donate fiat.

Psychological barrier... irrational probably.

Through taxation You have paid NATO operations against Iraq, Lybia and Syria, but now You will have strongly "anti NATO and anti ISIS" refugees, and that is not welcomed in mainstream media.
Too much CIA friendly salafi in EU.

Totally and completely insane as it sounds, we don't actually have much choice about who our money is being used to slaughter.

No way. Why would I support an invasion of europe?? Dont believe the mainstream media.

You pay NATO, NATO organize ISIS, kill Saddam and Geddafi, now You need pay to refugees.

I already pay them through taxation. The next thing to come is solidarity tax to cover refugees cost.
That's enough.

As mentioned above OP should edit his topic , if this site is a scam you haven't to publish it and asking support for them; otherwise the idea to enable Bitcoin as method of donation isn't bad but we have to see if the site is legal first

And now syriarelief.org is dead but that link posted still goes through to the official site. No mention of BTC on there.

OP, you've got some explanaining to do. Where did you get that news from?

You should lock this thread or edit it, otherwise it looks like you're involved in this scam.

Let's support them Grin
We rarely see a charity organization that accept BTC
Would be great if this site got spotted by news headline it could be a boost to Bitcoin popularity Wink

That is good for all of us who love to see bitcoin as a currency accepted worldwide. If they have enabled bitcoin option for donation than i think they are also supposing there are lots of potential donators who have bitcoin nowadays.

Is syriarelief.org the same as syrarelief.org.uk? The UK site doesn't have a pay with bitcoin button. It is also odd that the syriarelief.org site was created only yesterday, while the U.K. site has been around for years.

Good spot. It's pretty much the exact same website with the Bitcoin option added. It has less card payment options than the org.uk for some reason and zero mention of all the other donation options like bank transfers, cheques etc that the legit site has. The URL is a bit weird too. Having said all that the registrar details tick the right boxes.
