NY AG Settles with For-Profit Over Alleged Charity Scam - WNYC

NY AG Settles with For-Profit Over Alleged Charity Scam - WNYC: "A for-profit company based in Yonkers has agreed to pay $650,000 to two Westchester County charities, to settle allegations from the New York attorney general's office that the company was operating a charity scam.

Assistant District Attorney Gary Brown said Thrift Land USA used the names of two other charities — Big Brothers Big Sisters of Rockland County and I Love Our Youth, Inc. — on its collection bins, without disclosing that donated items were not going to those organizations."
