When we heard the news that Loompanics was closing its doors, we purchased the rights to publish a number ot titles we considered good fits for the Paladin catalog. Paladin welcomes Claire Wolfe, Eddie the Wire and all the other Loompanics authors to our house, and we extend our best wishes to our good fr
friends Mike Hoy and the entire Loompanics staff. Enjoy these titles.
This book looks at various hoaxes, scams, and types of fraud. You will learn to recognize these crimes for what they are and look at what you can do to protect yourself from becoming a victim of these crimes. It is important to remember, however, that no book can identify every possible hoax, scam or fraud, or every variation on these crimes. There will always be some new twist, some new way that criminals find to take advantage of the unsuspecting. What we can all do is learn to recognize the most common of these crimes and the underlying principles that make them successful. Don't be conned out of your life savings, tricked into paying for goods you will never receive or lose your complete identity?become aware!
