​Keep your members informed by sharing these helpful resources. Plus you can join several virtual events to learn more about coronavirus scams, government imposters, and cyber fraud. 
As Amy Kleinschmit mentioned in her Compliance Update on Friday, the Federal Trade Commission along with many federal, state, and local agencies, consumer groups, and national advocacy organizations, will participate in the 23rd annual National Consumer Protection Week (NCPW) February 28 – March 6, 2021.

NCPW is a coordinated campaign designed to focus on the importance of keeping consumers informed while providing them with free resources explaining their rights in the marketplace. This information is valuable to credit unions and credit union members, and we encourage you to share these helpful resources.

This year, the FTC and its partners will also participate in a series of events including webinars, Facebook Live events, and Twitter chats throughout the week. These virtual events will cover a range of topics, including avoiding coronavirus scams, government imposters, and cyber fraud.

You can join too!

Monday, March 1 at 1:00 p.m. CT. – Join a Facebook Live presentation with AARP’s Fraud Watch Network to learn how to spot and avoid COVID-19 scams.

Thursday, March 4 at 12:00 p.m. CT – Join the FTC, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), and AARP’s Fraud Watch Network for a webinar on Cyber Scams & Older Adults. This will focus on avoiding online scams, including phishing, tech support scams and COVID-19 related scams.

Follow FTC and USAGov on social media for quick, shareable consumer tips all week long:
  • Facebook: Federal Trade Commission, USAGov, and USAGov en Español
  • Twitter: @FTC, @LaFTC @USAGov, and @USAGovEspanol
  • Instagram: @USAGov
The FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection protects people from scams, identity theft, and other unfair, deceptive, and fraudulent business practices. You can learn more about consumer topics and report scams, fraud, and bad business practices online at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.
