FRAUD REVENTION MONTH

 

It’s Fraud Prevention Month! This year we’re highlighting Fraud: The Hidden Crime.

Did you know, fraud prevention relates directly to our mandate under the Consumer Protection Act? That’s the legislation that protects you from unfair business practices before, during or after any transaction. The legislation applies if:

• the consumer or supplier lives in Alberta;

• the offer or acceptance is made in or sent from Alberta;

• the unfair practice is made or received in Alberta and involves a supplier’s representative.

For examples of unfair practices and how the Consumer Protection Act protects consumers from unfair business practices, go to our web page, https://www.alberta.ca/unfair-business-practices
