Mickey Rourke trying to refund $90K to fans who donated to ‘scam' fundraiser
After denouncing a fundraiser set up in his name, actor Mickey Rourke said Friday that he is now trying to return the donated money.
The actor said he is “upset and embarrassed” about the fundraiser in a social media post, calling the fundraising effort a “scam,” which raised more than $100,000.
“My attorney is doing everything in his power to make sure anyone who gave their hard earned money is quickly returned,” the actor said, adding that there was more than $90,000 to be returned as of Friday.
The campaign was launched last week after reports that Rourke had been served a notice to vacate his Beverly Grove home.

What Mickey Rourke plans to do with money raised in 'scam' fundraiser
For Mickey Rourke, there's no price tag on doing the right thing.
The Oscar-nominated actor, who claims he was the victim of a fraudulent GoFundMe fundraiser earlier this month, gave an update on the money fans raised in an Instagram post Thursday, Jan. 15.
A GoFundMe page created on Jan. 4 sought to raise $100,000 for "The Wrestler" star, 73, to help Rourke avoid the "threat of eviction from his home." A complaint filed in California in December accused the actor of owing $59,100 in unpaid rent at his Los Angeles residence. He was told to pay the rent he owes or move out within three days, the filing stated.
