Habitat for Humanity Thunder Bay officials are warning the public about an email scam that is using the organization’s name.
Board chairman Andrew Campbell said the fraudulent emails claim to originate from Habitat for Humanity International. Campbell said the emails also claim to be collecting donations for the aid effort in Haiti.
"It is a fraudulent email that is asking for donations via credit card or cheque and it is also asking for some personal information," Campbell said.
The email scam was first reported in Toronto last week, and has since spread across the country.
