!!!!!WOW!!!!!JOPLIN MISSOURI TORNADO DAMAGE DEVASTATING!!!!!!! | |
Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 1373078 United States 05/24/2011 01:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | By Protect Yourself Tornado Scams Once again, a natural disaster has visited our states. This time the devastation was not limited to one state, one city, or one town, it touched many towns and many lives. It will take weeks for these barely standing towns to begin the recovery process. Those lost during the tornadoes will be memorialized and remembered even long after the cities have been rebuilt. It is time to remember those who have lost everything under the powerful forces of nature. Their needs are many and their grief is very strong. Supplies are still needed in the hardest hit areas. At this time of great sadness and grief, the Scammers who have no heart or soul will try to take advantage of the generosity of strangers. It can not be said enough, you must be on guard for those who will try to profit from these circumstances. Remember to watch your inbox for unsolicited emails. These are scammers trying to play on your heart strings. Those stories may be pulled off of news outlets or completely made up. Make certain to erase these immediately. They are all frauds. Check out the charities before donating. Do not take a person's word that they are legit even if it is a celebrity or news organization. A simple investigation online should give you the answers you seek. Stay away from any that are very new, have an unprofessional website, or have iffy contact information. You should always check out the physical address listed and a reverse look up on the phone number will give you clues to the authenticity. If your instinct says no, don't type in a credit card number. If there is any doubt as to the charity, stick to the well-known ones that are already well established. Remember charities can use more than just money donations. The tornado victims need other things to. Donations of food, clothing, water, and personal supplies are needed. They have lost everything.

Last I heard it was 116. Does anyone else know if this is the same or changed? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1396941They said the toll may go higher. The tornado has officially knocked the Flint-Beecher(Michigan) tornado of 1953 off the top of the list of the most fatalities for a single tornado strike in recent times. Only other one is the Tri-State tornado in 1925 that killed over 600 in Missouri, Illinois and Indiana. |
