charity fraud
Charity fraud is the act of using deception to get money from people who believe they are making donations to charities. Often a person or a group of people will make material representations that they are a charity or part of a charity and ask prospective donors for contributions to the non-existent charity. Charity fraud not only includes fictitious charities but also deceitful business acts. Deceitful business acts include businesses accepting donations and not using the money for its intended purposes.
==Examples==
*On April 20, 1918, ''The New York Times'' published an article about a charity fraud committed by the Secretary of the Cripples’ Welfare Society, George W. Ryder. Ryder pleaded guilty to using mail fraud to use the donations for his personal gain.〔"Charity Fraud Pleads Guilty." ''The New York Times.'' 20 April 1918. Web. 3 March 2010..〕
*On November 13, 1992, ''The New York Times'' released an article about fraudulent solicitations supporting a cause. Often, beside the cash register in stores, a collection is taken for a charity or for people in need. Although there are several real cases of people with ailments that need donations, there are several donations that are used as a marketing scam. In this specific case, the small-change donations were being kept by the vendors. The article states that the vendors paid a $2 per month fee to use the charity’s name.〔McFadden, Robert. "Small-Change Donations Going to Vendors, Not Charities, Abrams Charges." ''The New York Times''. 12 11 1992. Web. 13 Feb 2010..〕
