VANCOUVER Weeks after the remains of more than 200 children were found buried at the site of a former residential school in Kamloops, B.C., the Better Business Bureau in that province is warning of possible scams aiming to capitalize on the tragedy. In a news release Wednesday, the BBB said an overwhelming outpouring of support has created opportunity for scams, fake charities and fake online retailers. In one example, the BBB said a consumer sent a report about a Facebook ad allegedly posted by an online retailer called Tee Toro. According to the BBB, that ad said proceeds from sales would go to the Indian Residential School Survivor Society.
The day to wear for Orange for awareness of missing indigenous children is in September. But the news last week from Kamloops B.C has flags at half-ma.
