getting scammed I'll work these cases

all year long but it gets worse around

the holidays

generous or they are shopping for a
0:29
bucket scammers use bogus Charities and
0:32
Shady tactics to take money from you and
0:35
away from legitimate charities
0:37
before you donate check out the charity
0:40
and look carefully at the name some
0:42

0:44
resembling legitimate ones
0:47
make sure to make your check payable to
0:49
the organization and not to an
0:52
individual
0:53
and don't let them pressure you to give
0:55
money on the spot why is up something
