You see them in a lot of stores, gumball machines raising money for charity. But when you put that quarter in, where does it go?

You probably don't read the fine print on the stickers on those vending machines. But what's essentially a disclaimer is what watchdog groups call a shield for the unethical to turn your charity into chump change.

'They'll come in and ask you if it would be ok for them to put it in here because it goes towards missing children,' explains Seth Munro of Tint Devils."
