FRESNO, Calif. (KSEE/KGPE) — Since the wildfires ignited in Los Angeles, thousands of online donation fundraisers have emerged to help those who have been tragically affected - however, some could be set up by scammers. "Some things that are like if it's very vague and very urgent, like they're not telling you where the funds are going or what area it's affecting," said Jasmine Hill, operations engagement lead at the Better Business Bureau. Many fire victims and businesses on their behalf are asking for donations to cover disaster relief, food, water and other emergency needs. "Does the fundraiser have a clear title, image and story? Next, understand that use of funds. What's the purpose of the fundraiser," said Leigh Lehman, communications director for GoFundMe. But some scammers are looking to make a quick buck.  Lehman said GoFundMe has been closely monitoring the validity of these online fundraisers. "In order to verify we are confirming who the organizer is, who their fundraising for, the organizer's relationship to the recipient of the funds, and how funds will be used," Lehman said. She said there are ways people can take matters into their own hands.  "Donors can click on that report fundraiser flag, and that will send an alert to us," Lehman said. Lehman also says GoFundMe will give a full refund to donors when they discover they are a victim of a scam. "We are taking a close eye and keeping a close eye on these fundraisers starts and these reviews to make sure that people know that this is a trusted place to give and receive help," Lehman said. Hill said to be mindful when donating. "Blindly scanning QR codes...if it says the QR code is associated with the website, maybe just go directly to that website yourself rather than using your phone and scanning that QR code," Hill said. The Better Business Bureau and GoFundMe said they will continue to keep a close watch to stop online scammers during these tragic times.
