Coronavirus Scams

The Better Business Bureau has a webpage dedicated to helping consumers navigate the effects of the Coronavirus. It’s called ‘Don’t Panic. Be Safe. And Avoid Scams.’ Danielle Kane with the BBB says watch for false advertising. She says face masks and promises of cures are most likely a scam. If you are considering traveling, the site has information on what to do you before you buy that plane ticket or engage a travel agent. Kane says it’s best to know if you can get a refund for flights ahead of time, and to always buy trip insurance. She adds that tickets for events are trickier and refunds for those are determined on a case-by-case basis.
