Clothing scam companies are companies or gangs that purport to be collecting used good clothes for charities or to be working for charitable causes, when they are in fact working for themselves, selling the clothes overseas and giving little if anything to charitable causes. They are a particular problem in the United Kingdom, where they rely on people's awareness of proper charities' established practise of collecting used clothes for good causes.
