The Better Business Bureau has received close to 900,000 reports of rip offs from consumers. From Internet Ads that feature “free trial” offers to companies advertising to improve your credit score and reduce credit card interest rates, the scams are plentiful!

Here are two simple tips to help keep you and your wallet safe!

1. Pay attention to the fine print before you buy any product or pay for any service.

2. Do your due diligence! Contact the Better Business Bureau (www.bbb.org) and go to Rip Off Report (www.ripoffreport.com). Both sites will offer you valuable information

Now more then ever consumers need to be vigilant. Do your homework so you won’t get burned!
