Stop the Phishing Before You Get Hooked

www.antiphishing.org is a website focused on eliminating the fraud and identity theft that can result from phishing attempts to steal consumers' personal identity data (such as credit card numbers, account usernames and passwords, or your social security number.) This website documents known phishing scam emails and websites to help you identify and avoid being scammed. You can also use the site to report any known attempts that you have encountered, and it offers advice to consumers on what to do if you've already given out your personal information. Be on your guard and protect your personal information!


Get the Facts

Parents, get the facts on various kinds of illegal drugs that your children may confront in their lives. Educate yourself on the common signs of use, the physical effects, learn about drug packaging, and the associated health hazards. The PA Attorney General website offers various brochures on these and other related topics. Get the facts to help your kids! http://www.attorneygeneral.gov/kidsparents.aspx?id=490
