* educational videos from Attorney General Nessel, the Federal Trade Commission, and other trusted resources.
To help drive traffic to the new website and engage Generation-Z users, the Department’s Meta-based social media pages will use interactive stories to test users' knowledge and deliver additional tips.

There is no purchase or entry fee required in order to win, and residents are not required to be present at a State office or event to win. The winner must be a resident of the state and their name will be randomly drawn from qualified users.
Beginning on Black Friday and continuing through late-December, the Attorney General's website and social media channels will focus on educating consumers on 23 varying tactics commonly used to cheat consumers out of their funds during the holidays.
