the man behind 2017 failed Fire Festival is reportedly asking people for money once again.

But this time, he says, it's to help others.

Billy McFarland is currently serving a six year sentence in federal prison, but that hasn't stopped him from starting another venture, which he calls Project 3 15 He tells the New York toast that this is not a scam.

He says he and other prisoners can no longer have visitors because of the Corona virus pandemic.

The only way they can connect with their loved ones is with phone calls.

But those calls cost money, and many families struggle to afford them.

The project site is a place where people can donate money to help cover the $3.15 cost of a 15 minute phone call and where inmates families can apply for money.

In a letter posted to the site, reportedly from McFarland, he addresses potential skepticism.

It reads in part, If I were you, I think this is a scam.

I'd also question anything I read that tried to convince me otherwise.

What I did was absolutely despicable, and the responsibility for the damages caused starts and ends with me He also claims that he does not have access to the donated money, and it will go directly to INMATESFAMILIES minus some operational fees.

But whether people are ready to trust him with their money again is yet to be seen.
