Friends of Bolivia, Inc would like to inform
everyone to be aware of a group of heartless and dishonest
people cheating and swindling charity organizations in
Bolivia. Members of this
group of people claim to be connected with the United
Nation (U.N.) organizations, including someone claiming to
be the Bolivian Ambassador to the U.N., who are giving an
equipment grant to the charity. They are asking the
charity to send thousands of dollars to New Jersey for
shipping the equipment. After the money is sent, there
is no way to contact the group. The phone calls are
not answered, and nothing more is heard from them. A
few charities have been victimized this way.
Most organizations giving equipment
grants to charity include the cost of shipping, or find some
way of shipping it without asking the charity to pay for the
shipping first. It is all a big scam, so please do not
fall for their tactics and do not send money, unless you
know the person very well. The US police, Interpol, and FBI
cannot do anything to protect the charities.
Please be on the alert !!!!!!! |
