Description

We’re here to help you avoid rip-offs and scams. Pretext, aka imposter & impersonation scams comprise the top rip-offs and they come in many forms. Be in the know so you don’t get taken. Also, credit card interest rates haven’t been this high since the 1990s - while the banks are pushing offers to get you hooked. Solicitations are as sky high as interest rates. They want to own you!
