Online donations are everywhere. You see requests on social media, in your email, and even when you check out at your favorite online store. Giving online feels easy and fast. But there’s a hidden risk that many people ignore: your personal information could be at risk every time you donate online. Identity theft is a real threat, and online donations can open the door to scammers if you’re not careful. This matters because your name, address, and even your credit card details are valuable to criminals. If you want to help others without putting yourself in danger, you need to know how online donations may be putting your identity at risk.
