At a time when it seems everyone has his hands in your pocket - from the government to the credit card companies to your family lawyer - you need someone to protect you from an army of scam artists. In Robbed at Pen Point, attorney Randy Johnston tells readers who is scamming you, what scams to watch out for, how to avoid being taken and how to get even if you do. Besides pointing out the bad guys, the author notes that people who lose money in an economic downturn often take foolish chances in an attempt to make up for their losses. "That's when crooks make a killing," he says.
