"Speak Out" with Assemblywoman Sandy Galef Highlights New York State Assistant Attorney General Gary S. Brown

While scamming has always been an issue, Assistant Attorney General Gary S. Brown transitions from scams which heavily involve technology to those that are carried out through more traditional ways such as newspaper advertisements with falsified information regarding pricing or supplements. He also highlights to Galef scams that involve foreclosures, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and jury duty.

Brown not only informs viewers about how to protect themselves against scamming, but also discusses how the Attorney General’s Office has been working to help protect residents, both those who have and those who have not been scammed, from falling victim by urging the public to report the cases.

“With scamming continuing to plague us and compromise our privacy and security, we must learn more about common scams, how we can protect ourselves, and what to do if we do become victims of a scam,” says Galef, “I urge everyone to report if and when they are scammed, and I hope that many will watch this show to learn more.”
