There are
a number of fraudulent web sites which are using the Red Cross
Red Crescent emblems to request donations for disaster relief,
including the tsunami disaster. Please treat these web sites
as suspicious.
If you wish to donate to support the Red Cross or Red Crescent,
you can do so through the authorized channels, which are as
follows:
- The International Federation of the Red Cross and Red
Crescent Societies
(www.ifrc.org)
- The International Committee of the Red Cross
(www.icrc.org)
- The National Societies of the Red Cross or Red Crescent
(view full list)
There are also a number of
e-mails currently in circulation pretending to be from the Red
Cross Red Crescent - some of them claiming to contain job opportunities at the International Federation. If you receive any unsolicited e-mails
which look suspicious, please treat them with caution.
To report any fraudulent issues, please
email us so we can take action.
