Dennis Horton, Director of the Rockford Regional Office of the Better Business Bureau (BBB), discusses two current scams working their way through the Rockford area.
The Better Business Bureau's charity arm Wise Giving Alliance (Give.org) teamed up with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and other public officials to denounce misleading charities.
This one hits home, literally. The occupants of Black Ford SUV are behind a scam that is alarming residents of a Rockford neighborhood. They could come to your house, next.
Chicago police issued an alert after at least a dozen ATMs were found to have skimming devices attached to them at stores and banks across the city.
The devices, placed over or inside card slots to steal account information from customers, were discovered at 13 separate locations in less than a month, according to police.
Technology and scams go together hand in hand, and unfortunately, this scam cost a Stateline family over $2,550 in a matter of a seconds. Don't let it happen to you.
