Depends. By using the site, you agreed to the site's Terms of Service (TOS) or Terms of Use (TOU). If they expressly forbid such activity, they have the right to terminate your account under business contract law since you violated the contract. From a legal perspective, you can "solicit donations" providing you are honest and truthful about it. You can say "please send me money" as long as you don't lie about the reason or the intended use of the funds. If you say "please send me money to help me pay for my cancer treatment" and A.) you don't have cancer, and/or B.) Intend to use the money to buy a new TV or something other than cancer treatments then you have just commited 2 counts of attempted fraud. If someone is crazy enough to send you money then it becomes 2 counts of fraud and attempted fraud. If someone sends you money through PayPal, then it becomes fraud, attempted fraud and possibly wire fraud. If they send you money through the USPS then you can add mail fraud, an automatic escalation to Federal Court and a chat with the FBI. It gets worse from there.
