Sad to say but fraud and con artists are still part of our lives. Instead of earning money with some honest way to try to earn the living con artists choose to enrich themselves by cheating other innocent people.
Online scams cost Americans millions of dollars per year. Almost half of fraud cases investigated by the Internet Fraud Complaint Center involved online auctions, according to the center's annual report. Other major scams include non-delivery of promised merchandise and credit card fraud.
