Actually, to be specific, GFM is refunding, not him. He broke their rules by saying that bit about shuffling it over to his charity, thus GFM took control & is refunding to prevent theft.
Not the brightest bulb on the shelf there.
In fact, the spokesperson for the fundraising website said that the donations would be automatically refunded if the campaign doesn’t reach its $1 billion goal, unless donors specifically direct their contribution to the new organization.
“The money is not being refunded,” Kolfage told Breitbart News Washington Editor Matt Boyle on Breitbart News Saturday. “I made a promise to everybody if we didn’t hit one billion we would refund the money.”
“I’m giving people the chance to opt out of this and get their money back if they don’t want to move forward in building the wall to protect the American people,” Kolfage said, adding that “100 percent” of the money collected on the GoFundMe site or through the non-profit would go for construction of the wall.

Looks like everyone is opting in, as did I. There's nothing nefarious going on with the campaign. The campaign is still collecting lots of money.
The only thing that I see happening is that Kolfage set too high a monetary goal.

If you want a refund for your donation, no need to do anything. You will receive your refund a few weeks after the 90 days expires and GoFundMe will notify you once your refund has processed. If you would prefer a refund now, you can request that here: https://(link tracking not allowed)/2smynWq

If you don't want an immediate refund, and you don't opt in than your refund will happen after the campaign expires.
