It is almost certain that you will be a victim of fraud during your lifetime, for it is not just the greedy and the gullible who fall prey to these deceptions.
The unwary, the trusting and especially the elderly are targeted by large-scale fraud operations which steal an estimated $45 billion dollars per year in North America alone.
You will be overwhelmed by the many variations of scams, which have been condensed from the court transcripts of multi-million dollar fraud cases, as well as law enforcement advisories, into a clear and entertaining format
. You will marvel at the audacity, and shudder at the heartless greed, of these scammers who successfully and profitably portray themselves as reputable investment brokers, business opportunity franchisers, sweepstakes operators, lottery vendors and loan brokers.
The only protection you and your parents have is to fully understand how the various scams operate before they strike. This book goes into great detail exposing con artists for what they really are, criminals without a conscience.
Save yourself and your inheritance, then pass the book on to a friend. Help stop this financially and emotionally devastating crime.
