Scam artists are reportedly
posting fake websites and asking for donations in the name of Noah Pozner, one
of the children who lost his life. The fraudulent donation website offered
details about Noah and his family, about the funeral and asked for donations to
be sent to a New York address. The family told CNN it was unfamiliar with the
address. Pozner’s uncle said: “Instead
of doing things with the family I am running around protecting the family (from
fraudsters).” “I look at my nieces, and I think of these scammers. They are
stealing from them — the survivors of this tragedy.”
