What is with human nature? On the one hand, if a natural disaster like the earthquake in Haiti, strikes, there is plenty of financial and humanitarian aid from all over the world. At the same time, the faster the hope is offered, use the other for the chance to skip the tragedy. A disaster brings out the best of us as the worst. Why is there such a dichotomy in human nature?
In a previous article, I discussed how human catastrophes, the increaseThe hormone oxytocin, which increases our generosity. There were also some studies show that testosterone, the hormone oxytocin in the brain is blocked, so if you have more testosterone, are less likely to give more or never been to. But this is the simple answer? This means that people do not give a higher level of testosterone and generous, in fact, use a tragedy as an opportunity, people are generous? Unfortunately it is not as easy asand at the same time, probably much simpler than that.

Because the thieves on the generosity of people willing to help in the rescue operation to use? I think that it is precisely for this reason: it is an opportunity to help take advantage of the generosity of people who wish to take. You can put it behind hormonal problems, but that does not matter how the "why" is not fraud as important as the "result". In this case the result is the same whether it is a fraud because the evil isopportunistic, or controlled by hormones generous people are exploited by unscrupulous people.
The earthquake in Haiti is no exception. Scam e-mail request donations appeared within 24 hours after the disaster. These e-mails were directed against human sympathy, and to exploit the terrible images that were broadcast all media to be taken. Topics such as "helping the children of Haiti" is used in the subject line you want to get people to opene-mail and give, after all, everyone has their pictures of poor children to cry to see on the side of the road.
The odds ask to receive a donation that is fraudulent, with the advent of social media like Twitter, Facebook and Utube extends possibilities of the call increased. The lightness of the social context has increased so much with the information age that we expect more people the benefits of a disaster. This is unfortunate becauseIt forces us to pay attention not only on the negative and focus on the positive, generous.
How can you tell if a request is legitimate or not? In a future article I will try for clues to see if your e-mail requested the real thing. It 'a shame that we are in an age in which people use every natural disaster. However, with little effort on our part to ensure that our generosity is not wasted as a society.
