  • Criminals aleady know how to do this

    So educating the public on how it's done doesn't "teach" the criminals. What it does is make it a little harder for the criminals to make you a victim.

      Chris Hansen at NBC did a great segment that directly answers your question.

      If you’re interested take a look at
      msnbc. msn. com/id/24159621/ and find the “To Catch an Identity Thief” and then click on “Finding an unlikely victim of ID theft” near the bottom of the page.

  • Instead of telling people...

    where to get these products to scam items, try teaching the public to monitor their purchases, keep their transaction records, and verify their purchases against their monthly statements. Education is a better tool than fear mongering...

      We think you make a good point regarding consumers and how they should review their monthly statements, and we agree.

      Please note that this video absolutely does not “tell people where to get these products.”
      No retailer, manufacturer, make or model number for any equipment is ever mentioned.

      We agree that education is the best tool and is the purpose of the video, to educate the public as to what they need to look out for and how to protect themselves (i.e., try not to let your credit card out of your sight).

      We really appreciate your comment, thank you!
