Warning: Scams and false claims misusing the ICRC’s name

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is aware of fraudulent activities misusing our name, logo, and reputation to deceive individuals and organizations. These scams can take the form of fake humanitarian aid requests, fraudulent job offers, or messages claiming to provide financial assistance in exchange for personal information or payments.

We want to make it clear: The ICRC never requests payments or personal banking details from individuals in exchange for aid, jobs, or other services.

If you receive a suspicious message, email, or request that appears to come from the ICRC but seems unusual or asks for money, please verify its authenticity before taking any action. Below, we share examples of scams we have seen in circulation, to help you recognize them if you should come across something similar in the future.
