+++Identity theft+++


This is a very common fraud where the criminal people lie about who they are, and their purpose is to get the money, or other things that are valuable. Normally, the people think that this problem is not frequent, but it sounds amazing. This week, my boyfriend got a call. A woman said that he won a travel for two people to Flamingo, and the woman asked him for the number of ID, also if he has credit cards and personal questions. In this moment, my boyfriend felt that all these questions were very uncomfortable, and he said he didn´t like to say this information for the phone, and immediately the woman ended the call. So I think that the radio, and the TV should prevent the people about this fraud because every day the the victims increase.



+++Advertising+++


The advertising can be pictures in magazines, in the newspapers, on internet, or it can be videos about the products that the companies want to sell. The videos normally are presented on TV. The companies have to pay for the advertising, and this is very expensive. When a company is going to do advertising, they need to have different aspects, like the sound effects, get the attention of the people, humor, and logically information about the product. An example is the company Dos Pinos. They have money enough, and show on TV the majority of their products, such as milk, ice creams, juice, etc...


I think that the advertising is very effective because many people can see the product, and usually pay attention, and then the consumer goes to buy the product or service.
