Natural disasters can be devastating; unfortunately, some people will try to take advantage of people in need. Scammers often pose as government officials, relief organizations, or even disaster victims. They may ask for money, personal information, or even donations of goods.
Here are some tips to help you protect yourself from natural disaster scams:
Be suspicious of any unsolicited calls, emails, or text messages. If you receive a letter from someone claiming to be from a government agency or relief organization, hang up or delete the message. Do not click on any links or provide any personal information.
Only donate to legitimate organizations. If you want to contribute to a relief organization, research to ensure it is legitimate. You can verify the organization's status with the Better Business Bureau or Charity Navigator.
Be careful what information you share online. Scammers may try to steal your personal information, such as your Social Security number or bank account number. Do not share this information with anyone you do not trust.
Following these tips can help protect yourself from natural disaster scams.
