In October 2023, the Police and Border Guard Board of Estonia filed a suspicion against the NGO "Infograafika ja Ergonoomika Instituut," [5] which operates the online platform "Toeta.me," and its sole board member, Henri Laupmaa, over the alleged misappropriation of funds. The case was settled in 2025 with a settlement which stated that due to technical error some part of the money was accidentally paid to other Ukrainian projects and Henri Laupmaa had paid more back to the NGO than he borrowed.
