Deceptive Website Using Counterfeit EU Humanitarian Aid Logo for Illicit Purposes

The European Union (EU) has issued a strong statement condemning the fraudulent activities of the website 'glife.help', which has been misusing the EU's Humanitarian Aid name and logo. The EU unequivocally states that it does not fund, support, or associate with 'glife.help' or any of its activities.

The EU's humanitarian aid is always free of charge for beneficiaries. It does not involve charging fees to individuals, as claimed by 'glife.help'. The website offers supposed 'safe passage' to individuals from war zones, including the Occupied Palestinian Territory, for a fee, but this is a blatant misrepresentation of the EU's humanitarian operations.

The operator of 'glife.help' remains unknown, with no publicly available information about the individuals or institutions behind its operating company. This lack of transparency raises serious concerns about the intentions and legitimacy of the website.

The EU has official communication channels on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and it strongly advises against paying fees for services with an EU logo. Suspicious activities using the EU's visual identity can be reported through the Contact Page on the official website for EU humanitarian operations and services, which is [X].

The Commission objects even more vehemently when the unauthorized use of the EU's Humanitarian Aid name and logo takes place in such a context. The fraudulent actions of 'glife.help' constitute criminal offences. The EU will ensure proper follow-up and consider additional steps to have 'glife.help' and any associated pages shut down.

For a list of certified non-governmental organizations funded by the EU, refer to the official document. It lists the organisations that have been certified to receive funding from the EU's humanitarian aid programme. The EU's humanitarian services are not offered by 'glife.help'. The EU's humanitarian operations are not associated with 'glife.help'.

The EU's humanitarian aid does not support or fund 'glife.help'. The EU's official document lists the certified non-governmental organizations funded by the EU, and 'glife.help' is not among them. The EU's humanitarian aid does not involve charging fees to individuals, as 'glife.help' falsely claims.

The EU strongly condemns the exploitation of vulnerable individuals in times of crisis. It is a criminal offence to misuse the EU's Humanitarian Aid name and logo, and the EU will take all necessary steps to ensure that such activities are stopped.
