Telecom exclusively reported that a foundation that claimed to be commemorating Jota raised more than $60,000, and the foundation was questioned for having no connection with the player's family and Liverpool club.

The donation page of this foundation only supports cryptocurrency donations, meaning "accepting cryptocurrencies through NOWPayments". The

page displays the logos of Liverpool Club, UNICEF, Allianz UK and Portugal NGO platforms. Three of the agencies have informed the Telegraph that they are unaware of this and have not worked with the foundation.

The Charity Committee confirms that the Foundation has not received an application for registration. The Foundation lists addresses and related phone numbers for London, New York and Lisbon on its website. However, only one UK mobile number was accessible on Thursday, but neither calling nor sending text messages were responded to.

Liverpool Club told the Telegraph that they and Jota's family knew nothing about the foundation or website.

Allianz UK issued a statement saying: "We confirm that there is no partnership with the website and that our logo should not appear on the website. We have been monitoring illegal use of our brand and are taking measures to close the website through relevant departments. Brand abuse is an ongoing problem in the digital world, and scammers often try to add well-known brands to their fake websites to deceive the public."

Charity Fundraising Regulator told the Telegraph: "After tragedy and natural disasters, there are always some people who try to exploit the public's generosity and compassion. While most charity fundraising activities are real, regulators always advise the public to act cautiously when considering donations to ensure that funds are used where they are needed and in line with the wishes of donors.

Generally speaking, charity fundraising regulators do not recommend that they do not. Foundation donations registered as charities because there is a high risk of fraud. People should also be aware of possible signs of fraud in online fundraising, such as blurred or inconsistent information on the website, grammatical or misspelled, or the inability to obtain relevant information from the organization from other sources. "

NOWPayments CEO Lifsitz said: "We realized that the NOWPayments payment system may be used for fraudulent fundraising activities by a foundation that is not related to the Jota family.

I can confirm that no payment has been processed for the foundation. When we learn of alleged fraud, we immediately stopped serving the project. Our plug-in is not activated on the foundation's website. We often encounter such situations and will respond immediately, whether public figures are involved or not."
