Make sure your website complies with these laws that come into effect on the
1st of December 2009. The following warning comes from the Autoweblaw Pro website:
The FTC is really Cracking Down on Internet Marketers and
small Business owners RIGHT NOW, and actively going after those that don't rigidly adhere to all their rules
about disclosures, disclaimers, terms of use, privacy and other legal documentation! (Just Recently, they filed 45 criminal and civil law enforcement
actions against Internet Marketers, in a single
day!)
And NOW, the FTC has publicly Announced Its Newly Developed
"Cross-Border Fraud Guidelines".
This latest release in a series of compliance announcements proclaims that the FTC has joined with
Hundreds of International Law Enforcement agencies around the world to form a combined force and
aggressively combat what they see as the growing problem of 'Cross-Border Fraud'. This combined force has
vowed to unilaterally enforce the FTC's Rules and Regulations on a Worldwide
Basis.
