The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) is launching its Scams Awareness Month on
1st February – 28th February 2011. The aim of the campaign is to increase
awareness and understanding of scams to reduce the number of scam victims.
The nationwide campaign calls on consumers to drop scam mailings they have
received into designated Scamnesty bins or boxes at local libraries and
public areas across the country. Watch members are encouraged to get
involved in Scam Awareness Month and take advantage of the free campaign
materials available including campaign resource packs, posters, bin
stickers, information booklets and web banners.
