8:43 pm
the most common complaint to the f-t-c - identity theft - which accounted for about one in every five complaints. next, debt collection, followed by complaints regarding banks and lenders, shop-at-home and catalog sales, and rounding out the top five, prizes, sweepstakes and lotteries. when it comes to identity theft, remember scammers aren't above digging through dumpsters for personal information, so shred sensitive documents, especially now, during tax season. and to avoid falling prey to most other scams that involve fraud, heed the oft-repeated warning to never reply to emails, phone calls, or text messages that ask for personal or financial information. these often come disguised as an account alert - so if you're really worried, follow up with a credit or debit card company yourself. and research any company before doing business with them a quick online search for the company name plus a search term like "scam," "complaint," or "fraud," can save trouble later on. karen caifa kron 4
