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 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 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.

sadly lots of new scams are popping up and use the Tsunami as a background

no respect whatsoever

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