After every natural disaster, scams pop up to target victims and those trying to help out – Hurricane Harvey is no different.

That brought out criminals who wanted to exploit the goodwill of many Americans and vulnerability of individuals in the southern state. This is only likely to get worse after the storm made landfall again in Louisiana.
