Scam Alerts

Phishing schemes, high priced loans, the Nigerian letter scam and variations of the international lottery winner notice have victimized far too many Arizonans. New scams are targeted at consumers every day. We want to help consumers stop scam artists before they strike. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

To stay ahead of the rapidly changing consumer scams and schemes, please sign up for late-breaking Scam Alerts from Attorney General Goddard.
