PATH is also issuing a warning on their social media page urging the public to be cautious.
A Laois charity is warning the public about bogus door to door collections under their name.
People are pretending to be volunteers with Portlaoise Action to Homelessness selling raffle tickets in Mountrath over the past few days.
It comes during their Christmas charity fundraising efforts with upcoming collections in Portlaoise, Ratheniska and The Heath.
Jason McEvoy from PATH says it's a bizzare occurrence:
