National Consumer Protection Week

National Consumer Protection Week: From GovGab:
Consumer Action Handbook"National Consumer Protection Week is almost here. You may remember a few months ago when Nicole wrote a guest post introducing the National Consumer Protection Week blog, which shared great consumer tips leading up to and through NCPW. Well starting Sunday, the big event is finally here.

To celebrate, there are all kinds of consumer awareness events taking place all over the country. Check out the list to see if there's one in your area. If not, you can check out tips for promoting NCPW in your community to raise awareness about things like identity theft, scams and fraud.

Another way to get involved is to check out the 2010 Consumer Action Handbook. The Handbook and ConsumerAction.gov websites are your go-to guides for handling consumer problems. You'll be armed with the tools and strategies you need to file a complaint. There's a sample complaint letter as well as the contact information for tons of businesses and service providers so you know you're sending your complaint to the right place.

So tell me, how do you plan to celebrate National Consumer Protection Week?"
