The mum of an autistic schoolgirl who was beaten unconscious at a skatepark in Glasgow has hit out at "disgusting" scammers who set up a fundraiser in her daughter's name.
Angela Jarvis, 44, said she has been left "sickened" by a fake GoFundMe page which was brought to her attention last week. The page, which asks for donations of up to £1,000, was set up in her daughter Abbie's name more than a year after her brutal assault in October 2022.
The then 12-year-old was lured into a park in the city's Drumchapel before she was battered by another youngster and left with serious injuries. After Angela rushed to her aid, Abbie was hospitalised for two days.
She has since been diagnosed with PTSD and has been unable to return to school. Any funds given, the fake fundraiser states, will "help" with Abbie's "anxiety and education".
The page, which reads as if it has been written by Abbie, states: "Thank you if you donated. This fundraiser is to help with my education and anxiety after this attack, no this is not for lots of money, this is for my mental health.
"Thank you a lot."
Reacting to the online scam, Angela from Glasgow said: "I have been left sickened by the fact people are using Abbie's assault and torment to cash in, it is deeply disturbing. At first, I was left speechless but now I am disgusted.
"Someone sat there, saw Abbie's story and thought it would be a good idea to make money from it.
"Aside from everything else Abbie has been through, things like this torture her. She just wants to be able to move on from her past but she is unable to do so as she is constantly reminded of what happened to her."

Naman Ramachandran Bollywood A-list star Rani Mukerji was in refreshingly candid form at Mumbai’s FICCI Frames media industry conference, proffering frank opinions on the Indian theatrical business. The usual Hindi-language domination of the all-India box office was reversed for a period in 2021-22, when films from the south of India, including “RRR,” “Kantara,” “Ponniyin Selvan” and “Vikram” dominated, and the northern counterparts from’ Bollywood’ struggled to become hits. Since then, the north-south competition has evolved again.
