Travel Fraud
Definition:
Pay with a credit card. Fraudulent travel operators take the money and run, and even legitimate companies can suddenly go out of business. Protect yourself by paying with a credit card so you can dispute the charges if the promises aren’t kept.
Counterfeit Drugs

Pay attention to packaging. Check for altered or unsealed containers, or changes in the packaging or label. If you know the size shape, color, and taste of the medications you take, you will more easily identify possible counterfeits.
SLAMMING

The term used to describe what occurs when a customer’s long distance service is switched from one long distance company to another without the customer’s permission. Such unauthorized switching violates FCC rules.
