Description

If you receive a call or message asking for a donation to a charity, ask lots of questions before you give any money. Avoid giving cash and don't wire money — use a credit card or write a check directly to the charity. Find additional tips to help make sure that your donation actually goes to the cause you support at ftc.gov/charity.
