Tsunami Relief Scam Warning

[jeffrey]

The tsunami relief scams have come out in full force. I received one this morning in my email box asking me to make a paypal deposit for a real charity. The tip off it was a scam? The mail address it came from wasn't associated with the organization and the deposit email was a hotmail account. There are a lot out there, so be careful.

I gave money through UNICEF. You can go to www.give.org and it gives you overall ratings of charities-what percentage of funds actually go to programs.
