This holiday season, many people will turn to charities to give back. The last thing they want to do is give money to scammers instead of a cause they truly support. According to the FBI’s website, charity fraud rises during the holidays, when people choose to make end-of-year tax deductible gifts.
“Seasonal charity scams can pose greater difficulties in monitoring because of its widespread reach, limited duration and, when done over the Internet, minimal oversight,” cites the FBI site.
