The largest Black Lives Matter page on Facebook is reportedly a fraud — run by a white man in Australia who used it to take in more than $100,000 in donations.
The page was simply called “Black Lives Matter” and had nearly 700,000 followers, compared with the 322,000 for the verified page of the same name, CNN reported Monday.
The bogus page has been suspended and online payment platforms PayPal, Patreon, Donorbox and Classy have stopped working with it.
Some of the money raised through the fake page reportedly went into a bank in Australia.
CNN reported that Mackay has registered dozens of websites, many of which claim to be tied to black-rights issues.
In April 2015, he registered blackpowerfist.com using his name, email address and phone number.
