Type of a scam Charity

I was followed and direct messaged on Instagram by an account with no profile photo, no posts and no real information to indicate a real account. My IG account it private so I had to approve the message in order to respond but I did not accept the follow request. The message asked me to be a "sugar baby" with an offer of $500/twice a week. I never believed this account to be real but participated in the conversation to get more information. I replied by asking how they found my account, to which they claimed my account "came up on [their] wall." I asked to know about the individual and he stated his name to be Jeremiah Phillips from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 40 years old. He then asked me about myself and pressed on if I was interested in being his "trustworthy and honest sugar baby [because he’s] willing to take care and spoil [me] financially." In response, I asked what exactly he wanted and he went around the question initially, but essentially agreed to me asking if he just wanted to give me money for being a good person (i.e., being his "trustworthy and honest sugar baby"). He then told me more about himself. His exact message: "i work as a self employed personnel that my events planning decorating company and i co own a charity company though my job is stressful and it requires a lot of effort and i do travel alot due to the nature of my job..what do you also do for a living?" I asked what his charity was and he did not respond. The next day he said hello to me again and after a little small talk, asked if I was ready to receive my weekly allowances. I asked again, what’s the catch. He responded by asking if I had a bank account. I said of course. He asked for the name of my bank, but I said I’m not sure about telling him yet. I said this is too good to be true and he said I would believe it when I started receiving payments. I asked again if all he wanted to do was talk and he said yes. I asked him more questions: why do you do this and are there others? He said, "I want this cause I run a charity company" and "yes they’re others." I responded with, "So you want to spoil me.. with charity money?" He said, "Correct" and followed with "So what’s the name of your bank account". Instead of answering, I asked what his charity was again. I said "Goodaidcharity" and sent 3 screenshots of the website. I googled the charity myself and the website came up a few entries down, i.e., not as the first thing to pop up. When navigating the website, there are so many red flags including multiple spelling and grammar mistakes, incomplete or irrelevant sentences/paragraphs/entries, unprofessional team member photos (resemble phone/webcam selfies), two testimonials entries that are the exact same, links for social media accounts that don’t work (because there are no social media accounts, I tried looking), etc. I attempted pointing out only one of the many spelling mistakes to "Jeremiah" through our messages but he did not care and instead asked me if I was ready to help and again, what is the name of my bank. Confused, I asked, "What do you mean help?" Essentially, he then told me he would give me extra money in addition to my weekly allowances to donate to his charity to help him increase his reputation. I told him I was disappointed that there wasn’t a lot of information on this charity because I like to do a lot of research on an organization before I consider supporting it and he simply said I would get more information after I donated. Meanwhile, I reverse image searched the image of the lady on the website by the name of "Stacey Clarke" and found a Twitter post with the original photo. I discovered she is essentially an adult performer that does have a different name. I screenshot her photo on the website and the Twitter post and sent it to "Jeremiah" asking for an explanation. He said the lady also works for the charity and that he is also a "sugar mommy" and to trust him that her nname was Stacey. Back to the website, I reverse image searched the other team member photo, the man, and an entry (again, not the first entry) that looked like it was the "Goodaid Charity" website popped up but under the url "powerrelief.org". I clicked and it looked exactly like the website I had see before, except, the lady’s photo that is listed as "Stacey Clarke" on the goodaidcharity.com website, was listed as "Phoebe bullock." I again screenshot it and asked "Jeremiah" to explain why the name AND url is different. He said he didn’t know, but he just asked her. I actually attempted to ask the lady whom I found on Twitter (she has her own website) via Instagram about all of this but she never responded. The last thing I asked "Jeremiah" was why he wasn’t featured on the website, especially if he co-owns it, but he didn’t answer my question, he just said "yeah". I then stopped messaging.

I hope this story is enough to check out the "good aid charity" website and find it to be fraudulent.
