Hi,
I recently donated some money to an organisation that had a little stand at a Woolies in QLD.
I didn't think twice about it at the time. I thought hey, if they're here and they got permission to be here, they must be legit.
Later I realised that was a dumb assumption to make.
I looked this organisation up and it looks like a rort.
Here is their website, which is badly constructed and full of vague platitudes:

Here is their Facebook page, which is fishy AF:

I'm a temporary migrant in Australia so I don't know how the whole legal/regulatory process goes for charities operating in a public space over here.
How do I report them? Who do I contact? This whole thing looks like a scam.
