| Evidence
of FRAUD being perpetrated by the UPCN (United People of the Cherokee Nation) |
||||||
| The
Faux Indian Ego Org called the "UPCN" (United People of the Cherokee
Nation) has a website where they are promoting what they call the
'Rescue Buddy" program.
They
claim they "are currently
sending stuffed animals to the Cherokee EMS Department in Cherokee, NC."
and that the Cherokee EMS is "very excited about receiving the animals"
They ask people to send stuffies OR a "monetary donation" to the
UPCN's
so called "tribal office" .. which appears to be their "chief's" home
in Ohio :-/ The UPCN is soliciting both CASH and material donations, alleging they are doing so provide stuffed animals to the Emergency Medical Services Department of the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians. Now isn't that sweet? It would be, except for one small problem... The REAL Cherokee Tribal EMS HAS NEVER HEARD OF THE UPCN! Tribal Authorities have not endorsed this so called "Rescue Buddy Program" and they have NO DEALINGS with the "UPCN" whatsoever! The UPCN (United People of the Cherokee Nation) is blatantly LYING on their website. They are collecting money and goods in the name of a Federally recognized Tribe that DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE UPCN WAS AND WHAT THEY WERE CLAIMING until a copy of the UPCN website was sent to them. This is an all too common phenomenon among fake Cherokee Ego Orgs like the UPCN. They make outlandish claims about real Indians in need, which tug at the heartstrings of caring people. They do so to make themselves look legitimate to prospective PAYING members and to collect MONEY.
You
may contact the Office of the Attorney General for the Eastern Band of
the Cherokee Indians to confirm that the EBCI (Eastern Band of
the Cherokee Indians) IS NOT working with the UPCN or their "Rescue
Buddy" program.

PLEASE DO
NOT SUPPORT THESE CHEROKEEGO SCAMS!
There are THREE .... and ONLY
THREE Federally recognized Tribes in the Cherokee Nation,
the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, United
Keetoowah Band of Oklahoma and the Eastern
Band Cherokee Indians of North Carolina
Anyone using/exploiting the term "Cherokee Nation" who is not an enrolled member of one of these THREE Tribes is STEALING the intellectual property of the REAL CHEROKEE NATION!!!!!! These ego orgs exploiting the Cherokee name are not promoters of "peace and unity" as they claim ...they are common THIEVES who are STEALING from the REAL Cherokee Nations. CHECK OUT ANYONE WHO CLAIMS TO BE COLLECTING ANYTHING FOR THE CHEROKEE TRIBES ...or for any other legitimate Indian Tribe or Nation. The three federally recognized Cherokee Tribes all have well established procedures for approving any charitable program undertaken in their name. Using THEIR NAME without their permission is EXTREMELY DISRESPECTFUL ...and in some cases, even CRIMINAL! |
