New York officials warn Holocaust survivors about fraudulent restitution scam
New York Governor Kathy Hochul and the state's Department of Financial Services issued a warning about a fraudulent entity calling itself the "Jewish Holocaust Claims Center" or "JHCC" that contacted Holocaust survivors seeking compensation claims. DFS could not verify the entity's legitimacy, referred the matter to law enforcement, and reported the website to its hosting provider, which removed it. The Claims Conference also disavowed any affiliation with the entity.
