Query:
Amid the coronavirus pandemic and resulting economic downturn,
scammers are taking advantage of people's heightened economic
anxiety.
Their latest ploy is posing as representatives from utility
companies to dupe people out of their cash and personal
information by convincing them their utilities will be shut off
if they don't pay.
Utilities in fact, are a common subject of impostor scams. They
are by far the most common type of fraud reported to the Federal
Trade Commission (FTC).
Looking for experts who can weigh in on this topic - how to you
spot and avoid utility bill scams?
-What are the telltale signs of such a scam?
-And what should a consumer do in response, when they suspect
they are being targeted by a scammer? Or suspected they have
already fallen victim to one?
Requirements:
Please have specific professional expertise in this subject area.
Please provide a link to your professional bio for our review.

I'm looking for a wedding planner and someone who recently got
married!
Article pitch:
Congratulations on your engagement! You might be wondering how
to plan for your wedding next month or next year when you aren't
sure what to expect. This article will talk about what to do
when you're planning for a wedding now or in the uncertain
future in order to allow you to have a beautiful and safe
wedding that won't break the bank or lose you your deposits.
Possible Subtopics:
Decide on the size: Do you want to elope or do you want to have
a gathering that stays underneath the maximum gathering limit in
your state? This section will talk through how to figure out
what size of a wedding you want. If you plan on getting married
in the future, you might still want to curtail your plans to
cope with the uncertainty. This will also ensure that you can
keep from losing money on deposits if you have to cut back your
plans. Party in the Future: A lot of couples are having two
celebrations - one now with a small group where they get legally
married and one in the future when they will be able to gather
all their friends and family together safely. This section will
talk through how to plan both of those parties.
Be Careful with Bookings and Deposits: Before you book anything,
be sure to read through the booking and deposit rules. Will you
be able to get your money back? Under what circumstances? Be
sure you know before you sign.
Requirements:
