Doing a lot of shopping is fun, but it can be dangerous if you’re not leery of all the scams out there! In order to keep up with everything, I read Consumerist every day. Consumerist “…empowers consumers by informing and entertaining them about the top consumer issues of the day.” In short, Consumerist reports on scams, companies that offer ‘deals’ that aren’t really ‘deals’, shady corporate practices, and bad customer service. The articles are humorous and light, but very revealing at the same time. Have you heard of an electronics ‘buy back’ program? Well all is not as it seems according to the Consumerist reporters. Read about it here. Are you constantly having issues with your cable provider? Read one consumers harrowing story here.
I really value all the information I get from Consumerist. They are doing all of us a service by sniffing out these scams.
Check it out and let me know what you think!!! Go to Consumerist, the site for Consumers Who Bite Back!!
