Hurricane Harvey Victim ScamsHurricane Harvey is already causing an enormous amount of destruction and devastation. Unfortunately, it may also have a large impact on the internet security and finances of charitable people from many thousands of miles away.

This week, US-CERT (the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team) warned the public of the danger of scams for Hurricane Harvey related charities.

Do not be fooled, there are scammers out there that prey on the kind-hearted souls that give even when they don’t have much to give. The sad truth is they often view a natural disaster as a moment for them to make a pretty penny.

How do the criminals target you using Hurricane Harvey you ask? Many ways!

The attackers link to counterfeit websites and steal innocent people’s data thinking they are giving to a valid charity. They also attach through social networks and emails knowing the public is just thinking it is all for a good cause.

Many valid sites are set up during these disastrous times, however, it is highly recommended that you research the validity of the charity before you donate. The FTC advises you check out a charity through Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) Wise Giving Alliance, GuideStar, Charity Watch or Charity Navigator, to name a few. Donating through a scam site deprives this charitable support from the people who need it the most, as well as benefits these merciless criminals during such a horrific time.
