Earlier this afternoon, the U-Kiss facebook page was updated with a post in English and Korean with the following message:

After a few minutes of initial surprise, people naturally became suspicious. Why would U-Kiss, a group that had been around for 5 years and was very successful in Japan, need to crowdsource to get any form of income? Especially since there are much easier forms of bringing in money such as fan club registration and putting on more concerts in Japan or maybe Korea. People were accusing the site of being a fake site.
At around 6pm Korea time, the post was taken down from the U-Kiss Facebook page.
 
 
Update 6:50 pm
The website www.kpopfunding.com has taken down the page with the original information, with the message:
 

Sorry! Due to an error in the system is modified. After renewal, we will open again this project page tomorrow (September 10th) Wait please.

 
One of the bigger concerns regarding the KPopFunding page was the fact that Dongho was absent from the entire post. He was not listed on the site, he was removed from all the promotional photos, and was not in the profile listing. In combination with the fact Dongho was absent from Idol Sports Day taping, and has not been seen on Twitter since March, many fans instantly became very worried about what was happening with Dongho. At the same time, Wikipedia was changed to show Dongho as a "Former Member". (According to the Wiki Edit logs, the change was made quite a while ago, but the edits have gone back and forth over the summer by anon editors.)
 
We are currently waiting for NH to respond to this, either by confirming that the site was a hack, explaining what kpopfunding is, and hopefully
explaining the missing Dongho issue.
 
UPDATE 7:15pm
From the official U-Kiss Twitter account

Attempted enlgish translation:

This afternoon, the KPopFunding Facebook page that was posted had an error, so it will be modified and re-opened soon. Please wait! Sorry for the Confusion!

 
As of 10pm Korean time
From the site that the U-Kiss site has said it WILL be working with, this is their header:

The K-POP FUNDING domain is registered to the same people who run the legit crowdfunding site www.goodfunding.net
