Beware of Fake Websites and Emails Asking for Donations
Sep 10th, 2005 by Neo
I just happen to come across this piece of news. Have to make Hot-screensaver readers aware:
There has been a vast outpouring of help for the victims of hurricane Katrina from Americans and from other countries. Private contributors have donated millions of dollars. But the hurricane has also provided an opportunity for scam artists.
Analysts said:
“What happens, when you click on “donate,” the information that you’ve entered actually gets sent to the third party, and then what happens is you get re-directed to the real Red Cross web site, which even makes it more real.”
