The NFIC stems from the National
Consumers League's longstanding commitment to protecting and
promoting consumers' social and economic interests. NCL works
extensively with the media to raise public awareness about
telemarketing and Internet fraud. While the identities of consumers
who contact the NFIC and the companies they report are shared only
with law enforcement agencies, NCL can provide the media with
information about the most prevalent telemarketing and Internet
scams, how particular scams work, the latest trends, etc. Information
from the NFIC web site can be reprinted with advance permission and
attribution to: The National Fraud Information Center, a project of
the National Consumers League.
Reporters should contact the
NCL Communications Department at 202-835-3323,
fax 202-835-0747, or via email. Thank you for your help in
the fight against consumer fraud!
