Abstract
The research study investigates the relevant issue of charity fraud. The main goal is to find out the root causes of why people believe in scammers. In Kazakhstan, a fifth of the funds collected are the earnings of pseudo-volunteers. Americans contributed nearly $450 billion to charity in 2019, according to the Giving USA Foundation’s annual report on US philanthropy. The information was collected by conducting a survey and interviews. According to the survey, around a quarter of respondents or people they know, witnessed charity fraud. This problem disturbs legitimate organizations and inhibits the settlement of global problems. The sum of money that was scammed may have been used as food or other aid to those in need.
