March 6-12 is the 13th annual National Consumer Protection Week. Across the nation, the Postal Service along with federal, state, and local agencies and consumer organizations is conducting information sessions for the general public.
Tomorrow, at 9:30am in the main lobby, the Birmingham Post Office (351 24th St. N) invites everyone to attend one such event. Keynote speakers will tell you how to protect your privacy as well as how to avoid becoming the victim of scams and fraud. Attendance is free for all.
A great resource for keeping abreast of current scams is the NCPW website. You can check out their blog by clicking here.
