AG cautions Kentuckians to give wisely this Holiday Season Attorney General Jack Conway doesn't want charitable donations to end up in the hands of scam artists By Daniel Kemp, Deputy Communications Director Kentucky Attorney General's Office FRANKFORT, Ky. - As Kentuckians generously open their pocketbooks and wallets for those in need of a helping hand this holiday season, Attorney General Jack Conway wants to make sure your charitable donations do not end up in the hands of scam artists. "Much like storms and natural disasters, the season of giving brings out the best and worst in people," Attorney General Conway said. "Scam artists and dishonest or fraudulent charities not only take advantage of the kindness of others, they deprive reputable charitable organizations of crucial resources needed to help provide clothes for a child or food for a struggling family. If you plan to give to a charitable organization over the holidays, gather as much information as possible to make sure the charity is not a scam and that your donation reaches someone in need." Attorney General Conway and his Office of Consumer Protection ask that you keep the following tips in mind if you choose to make a charitable donation this holiday season:
If you are the victim of a consumer scam, help is available by contacting the Office of the Attorney General's Consumer Protection Hotline at 1-888-432-9257 or by visiting ag.ky.gov/civil/consumerprotection. This story was posted on 2014-12-11 08:35:07
