FOXNews.com - Beware of California Wildfire Charity Scams - The Big Story w/ Gibson and Nauert: "If you're like a lot of folks watching the coverage of the Southern California wildfires and want to help by donating money, watch out. Whenever a disaster strikes — manmade or natural — the con artists come out ready to prey upon people who have the best intentions.
FBI officials say when donating money be on the lookout for Internet-based scams from 'disaster relief charities.' After Hurricane Katrina, the 9/11 terror attacks and other tragedies, hundreds of unscrupulous people and groups set up online schemes to scam millions of dollars from hardworking and honest people."
