    Scam or not?

    http://www.weartsunamiaid.org/

    what's the deal with everyone now collecting money for the victims of tsunami and why the hell paypal processes for them?


    "Our goal is to sell 1 million wristbands, and donate the majority of the profits to the victims through an internationally recognized humanitarian aid organization. "

    yeah right

    I'm surprised CTC's friends haven't caught on to this and promoted it in their usual ways.
    I've trusted my sites to them for over a decade...

    Webair, bitches.

      I don't give a damn about all these "Tsunami Victim" collections.

      If someone truly cares about them, then they don't need 'count' how much they've collected and flaunt it on their website.

      All they need to do is but link to google.com/tsunami_relief That's what I did on my site.

          i recon there is a high possiblitly that its gonna be a scam
          SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                I say give your money through major charitable groups like the Red Cross. Over here there are coin collection cups on nearly every counter of any store I go into. I am sure most are legit but society being what it is I am left with some doubt that all of the money is going to go where it is suppose to go.

                        I guess nowadays, to scam people in the name of the tsunami victims is the easiest way to make a quick buck.
