The Federal Trade Commission and 58 law enforcement partners from every state have charged four phony cancer charities and their operators with bilking more than $187 million from consumers. They are Cancer Fund of America, Cancer Support Services, Children’s Cancer Fund and The Breast Cancer Society.
The scumbags told donors that their contributions would help cancer patients, including children and women suffering from breast cancer, but the overwhelming majority of donations benefitted only the perpetrators, their families and friends! This is one of the largest actions brought to date by enforcers against charity fraud.
