Scam-Proof Your Assets
by Garrett Sutton, Esq
Description
Deceptive misinformation comes at us for many reasons.
A key reason is to steal our assets.

Scam-Proof Your Assets also keenly analyzes the marks that criminals target, which include the well educated and normally skeptical. If you think you’d never be a target, think again. Everyone needs the strategies set forth in this book. Now and into the future you must keep your guard up against the relentless predators’ assault. Get your guard up with Scam Proof Your Assets.
Praise for Scam-Proof Your Assets
“Sutton provides both general and specific guidance on how to identify and protect oneself against such scams. For example, his “profile of your typical scammer” is an insightful list of 11 richly described attributes, such as “They like to tell you how the clock is ticking”; that list is followed by 13 equally insightful “things that make for a good mark,” which may give pause to any reader. The closing chapter’s excellent suggestions for developing “scam radar” supply a comprehensive checklist that’s as solid a resource as one could possibly find. Overall, Sutton’s prose is informative, easy to read, and authoritative without being stodgy. His detailed descriptions and expert advice will be valuable asset to consumers and business owners alike.”
