Getting ripped off sucks. There just aren’t a lot of other ways to put it. But you can do something about it in many cases.

If you have been ripped off or even just want to know what to do in case you get ripped off, you may want to order the free 2007 Consumer Action Handbook. This is a real book they will mail to you, not a download.

The site also has information on how you can file a complaint and other things you can do.
