Please go into details, I always think it's important to call out charities that are fraudulent and going into details helps with detecting if other charities are fraudulent or not.
What lead you to look into this? How did you originally suspect them of being fraudulent? What clues did you see in their financial documents?
For example, I tend to look at Charity Navigator and for Salvation Army, they mostly get dinged by not having an independent board (which to be fair is a clear red flag) but not much more, so as someone who does want any contribution I make to charities to go toward their cause, I'm very interested in any methodology around researching a charity.
