Hi, this is Bill Sikkens host of User
Friendly 2.0 Saturday
2
00:00:03,250 --> 00:00:06,250
here on The Answer
with this week's Tech Wednesday.
3
00:00:06,333 --> 00:00:09,791
Here in the United States
it is tax filing season again.
4
00:00:09,791 --> 00:00:12,166
And with that comes out the scammers.
5
00:00:12,166 --> 00:00:15,041
And we're seeing a lot of new creative
scams this year
6
00:00:15,041 --> 00:00:18,791
and some retakes on the old
and some just using some of the old.
7
00:00:19,458 --> 00:00:22,458
These scammers want to come between
you and your money.
8
00:00:22,583 --> 00:00:24,958
Look for your personal information
for things
9
00:00:24,958 --> 00:00:27,958
like identity theft
or a combination of both.
10
00:00:28,500 --> 00:00:31,250
This week on User Friendly 2.0,
we're going to be talking about
11
00:00:31,250 --> 00:00:34,833
some of these scams, what to look for
and how to avoid them.
12
00:00:35,375 --> 00:00:36,500
We're also going to be taking a look
13
00:00:36,500 --> 00:00:38,750
at some of the things
that have happened in the past,
14
00:00:38,750 --> 00:00:41,958
and what you can do if you think
you might have already been scammed.
15
00:00:42,291 --> 00:00:45,083
It happens to the best of us,
so there are some ways to be able
16
00:00:45,083 --> 00:00:48,125
to circle back and clean
that up a little bit,
17
00:00:48,583 --> 00:00:52,083
and also where to go if you want to see
if something is for real.
18
00:00:52,666 --> 00:00:55,666
That'll be this Saturday
here on User Friendly 2.0
19
00:00:55,791 --> 00:00:58,666
or at userfriendly.show.
