In 2019, she and her former Baywatch co-star Donna D'Errico were targets of a scam. They received offers to fly to Dubai, give a speech, and receive a $300,000 appearance fee. The scammer claimed to be from the office of the Deputy Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and said that the speech would be at an economic empowerment convention for small business owners. The contracts that Allen and D'Errico were sent seemed legit, so they both signed. The organizer in Dubai then claimed to have trouble wiring over the funds. Instead, the scammer deposited checks into the women's bank accounts. Before the checks cleared, the women were asked to donate $150,000 each to a fake charity. Allen and D'Errico became suspicious and decided not to send the donations or any personal information. The checks that the scammer had deposited were revealed to be fraudulent, and the actresses would have lost $300,000 if they had not backed out. Other targets of the scam were Taylor Armstrong and Dog the Bounty Hunter. [92]
