Beware of fake saigonchildren websites

date_range2022-11-24

It was recently discovered that a website has used Saigon Children’s Charity CIO’s name and contact details to display unverified information and collect donations on the Internet.

The website https://tuthiensaigon.org/ impersonates Saigon Children’s Charity CIO (‘saigonchildren’) by using our name at the header and our address, email, phone number, and Facebook fanpage as the contact details.

It is unclear what the motives of this website are, but it is displaying information not of saigonchildren’s programmes nor bank accounts belonging to us.

While working with the authorities to take appropriate action, saigonchildren urges the public not to trust any information on the website https://tuthiensaigon.org. Saigon Children’s Charity CIO’s official website has always been www.saigonchildren.com.

 

When people would like to make a donation to an organisation, it is advised that they should follow these steps:

  • Make sure the bank account displayed has the same name as that of the organisation.
  • If the organisation is present on social media, make sure the social media channel with a verification check (blue checkmark) displays the same website address as the one you make the donation from.
