| This
book looks at various hoaxes, scams, and types of fraud. You will learn
to recognize these crimes for what they are and look at what you can do
to protect yourself from becoming a victim of these crimes. It is
important to remember, however, that no book can identify every
possible hoax, scam or fraud, or every variation on these crimes. There
will always be some new twist, some new way that criminals find to take
advantage of the unsuspecting. What we can all do is learn to recognize
the most common of these crimes and the underlying principles that make
them successful. Don't be conned out of your life savings, tricked into
paying for goods you will never receive or lose your complete
identity—become aware! 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, softcover, 143 pp. |
