I would like to share the tips I have read from a website on how to prevent consumer fraud.

1. Always take your time when making a financial decision. Don't be afraid to refuse an offer and say no.

2. Never give your credit card number out over the phone unless you initiate the call and you knew the person on the other line.

3. Don't be overwhelmed by give-aways, promo and free prizes. There may be a catch.

4. Offers that sound too good to be true usually are. It's an Aladdin’s lamp.

5. Always report consumer fraud to authorities.
