Click Smart: Beware of Disaster Scams!

Tip: How To Spot a Phishing Attempt

July 2025

Cybercriminals are experts at exploiting emotions, and they won’t hesitate to take advantage of global or national disasters. Whether it’s a hurricane, wildfire, earthquake, or humanitarian crisis, scammers set up fake charities and crowdfunding campaigns, pulling on heartstrings to steal money and personal information.

Before you donate:

Verify the Charity – Use websites like Charity Navigator or the BBB Wise Giving Alliance.

Avoid Urgent Pressure – Scammers push you to act fast. Legitimate organizations don’t.

Don’t Click Random Links – Go directly to the official charity website.

Use Secure Payment Methods – Avoid wire transfers or gift cards.

Stay vigilant, and protect your generosity. Share this to help others stay safe from disaster relief scams.
