Scams

These days it seems like everyone is trying to get their hands on your money.

Some of the most dangerous among them are scammers. Scammers are people who try to get you to invest in their scheme in one way or another, only to disappear and offer you no payback for what you have given them -- whether it be time, money, or information. Sometimes they can string you along for years, always offering that big break or those big winnings. It all ends in lost time and money, disappointment and frustration -- this is the last place you want your hard-earned resources to end up.

Unfortunately, all too often people only see the rewards that scammers offer without pausing to examine the clues that they might be scammers. With their eyes filled with dollar signs and pots of gold, people will fork over a few dollars, or even their life savings in hopes of cashing in at the end of the rainbow. But most of the time if an offer seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Identity theft comes in many forms.

A person\92s identity can be 'borrowed' for the purpose of creating fictional credit cards or a person\92s entire identity can be usurped to the point where they can have difficulty proving that they really are who they claim to be.

Up to 18% of identity theft victims take as long as four years to realize that their identity has been stolen.

There are many ways to protect your personal identity and many steps you can take to prevent your identity from being stolen:

*Never give out unnecessary personal information
*Never provide bank details or social security numbers over the Internet
*Always remain aware of who is standing behind you when you type in your personal credit codes at ATM machines and at supermarket checkout swipe machines.
