Looking to protect yourself from fraud, identity theft and scams? The Office of Consumer Protection (OCP) has information for you during National Consumer Protection Week (NCPW), March 3-9. NCPW is a time when government agencies, consumer protection groups and organizations like OCP work together to share information about consumer rights and help people learn to spot, report and avoid scams.
Be sure to keep an eye on OCP's social media channels next week and beyond for useful tips and information to help you navigate the consumer landscape with confidence. You can find OCP on Twitter/X, Instagram and YouTube at @ConsumerWise, and on Facebook at @OCP.ConsumerWise.
