The information below is provided as a public service from Debt-Tips.com. All of the information comes from various organizations, U.S. government agencies and departments. As a consumer, you owe it to yourself to know as much as possible about debt, credit, taxes, mortgages, banking – and avoiding related scams.

All consumers should know the guidelines that businesses must follow, so that when a problem occurs, you can protect your rights:

The Bureau of Consumer Protection

The Bureau of Consumer Protection's mandate is to protect consumers against unfair, deceptive, or fraudulent practices. The Bureau enforces a variety of consumer protection laws enacted by Congress, as well as trade regulation rules issued by the Commission. Its actions include individual company and industry-wide investigations, administrative and federal court litigation, rulemaking proceedings, and consumer and business education. In addition, the Bureau contributes to the Commission's on-going efforts to inform Congress and other government entities of the impact that proposed actions could have on consumers.

The Bureau of Consumer Protection is divided divisions, each with its own areas of expertise.”
