Definitely not a charity, but a for-profit community interest company (CIC). https://www.londoncentric.media/p/we-r-blighty-fundraising-regulator-criticism-broke-rules -
Yes I saw that. I'm not intending to give them money! I just wonder why, if they are actually collecting money under false pretences (rather than not having gone through the proper channels) they have not been prosecuted? -

From the Fundraising regulator link: "we concluded that it was more likely than not that donors could have been misled by confusing messaging or fundraising materials. This includes materials suggesting a link with a well-known national veterans’ charity, which the CIC has since confirmed it does not work with. We were also concerned about the costings in some of the fundraising materials that the CIC could not show good enough evidence for. There was also enough information available for us to conclude on balance that some fundraisers for the CIC acted in an aggressive and unprofessional way towards both potential donors and public officials." Some of the money may make it to the people they say but there are better ways to support veterans -
When you say "scam", do you mean that the money collected is not going to where they say it is?
