Natural Disasters

Every time there is a natural disaster, charities and other organisations appeal for help and the public always respond. But there are always scam appeals as well. Scammers trying to take advantage of that generosity and steal money from those who may have lost their homes and loved ones.

Imagine flying to somewhere only to find your hotel booking was fake and you have nowhere to stay. That’s bad.
