We’ve seen the outpouring of support for the Ukrainian people at a local level through various fundraisers. But, Attorney General Josh Shapiro is warning residents to be on the lookout for scammers.
He says when donating money or goods to the Ukrainian people, you should follow three simple tips:
- Ask questions about where the money will go specifically.
- Double check with the IRS to make sure the organization is registered and tax deductible.
- Never use cash or debit cards to donate. Credit cards are best.
If you believe you’ve been the victim of the scam, you should call local police and the Office of the Attorney General.
