Red Cross reports scam letter
Cumberland County Red Cross warns that a letter some individuals have reported receiving is a scam.
Supposedly from a company called ESO*WORLD, the letters say the recipient owes $19.50 for a donation that someone made to Red Cross on their behalf, Red Cross says.
Sherrie L. Davis, executive director of the county organization, said the organization has gotten “quite a few” calls about the letters and is recommending that recipients ignore them.
“It’s such a shame,” Davis said Tuesday, noting that the Red Cross is not happy that someone is using its name and causing confusion among people who are getting the scam letters.
