Dirty Scams, Cons and What You Can Do About It!

We all have had bad experiences with companies before -- a bank that charged you a fee in error, a package that never arrived, a mechanic who doesn't seem to be charging you a fair price for your repairs. We want to hear about yours, call (347) 637-2532 and vent your complaints and find out what you can do about it.

"Foreclosure rescue scams, dirty debt collection tactics, sudden store closings, and landlords skimping on the heat and ignoring needed repairs are just some of the issues that confront consumers in these difficult economic times," said Susan Grant, Director of Consumer Protection at the CFA. "In addition to those problems, new types of scams and new payment methods that are being exploited by fraudsters pose challenges for consumers and consumer agencies."

Good news, there are people that are here to help. Those people -- 40 agencies in 20 states across the U.S. -- have pooled their records with the Consumer Federation of America and the North American Consumer Protection Investigators to track and analyze the biggest problems facing consumers, and what laws should be instated to better protect them.
