Individuals who have come into contact with or are victims of telephone and Internet scammers and other con artists who attempt to persuade people who are vulnerable to part with their savings or reveal personal information that makes them susceptible to identity theft. Common scams include fraudulent prize offers, "free" travel packages that have hidden costs or which never materialize, "get rich quick" investments that turn out to be worthless, tax debt/refund scams, phony charities with names that are similar to well-known organizations and schemes involving promises to recover an individual's money following their victimization by another scam. Other categories include scams involving Medicare, Social Security, health care, insurance, debit/credit cards and mortgages; and fraud found in online shopping, auctions and dating services.
