The annual initiative, led by the Federal Trade Commission, focuses on educating consumers about fraud, scams, and consumer rights.
National Consumer Protection Week offers several opportunities for public involvement. Individuals can visit ftc.gov/ncpw for information about free webinars scheduled throughout the week. The website also provides a wide range of resources and links on how to avoid, report, and recover from scams. Additional topics include identity theft, cybersecurity for small businesses, and job-related scams. Consumers can also subscribe to Consumer Alerts to stay informed about the latest scam activity.
As part of its ongoing commitment to customer education and fraud prevention, First National Bank in Amboy regularly shares information and resources designed to help protect consumers. More information is available at fnbamboy.com, on the bank’s Facebook and Instagram pages, or by visiting any of its branch locations.
