DRS & BBB Join Forces to present “Scam Smackdown”
National Consumer Protection Week
March 4 – 10
Debt Reduction Services and the Better Business Bureau are joining forces with federal, state, and local government agencies and national organizations to celebrate the 14th annual National Consumer Protection Week (NCPW). During NCPW, organizations share tips and information that help consumers protect their privacy, manage money and debt, avoid identity theft, and avoid frauds and scams.
Thursday, March 8, 2012, Debt Reduction Services will be hosting a “SCAM SMACKDOWN”.
This entertaining and informational event will be led by Beve Bryant, the Outreach Coordinator for the Better Business Bureau.
She will be presenting a behind the scenes peek on the latest top scams, how a scam artist thinks, and how a con artist can trick seniors out of their life savings.
Come learn tips on how to smackdown the bad guys!
DON’T DELAY First 50 registered participants will receive a free RFID shielded wallet.
Many credit/debit cards and id’s have Radio-frequency identification (RFID) chips in them. RFID chips can be read from a distance and even while your wallet is in your purse or pocket. An RFID shielded wallet helps prevent accessing that data.
