NADA is a partner with the FTC in this effort, working to educate dealers and their customers on best practices for protecting personal information, particularly online. To help them spot and avoid online fraud and deception, the FTC recommends that Internet users adopt the following safer practices: 1. Know who you’re dealing with. Do business only with companies that plainly provide their name, street address, and phone number. 2. Protect your personal information. Share credit card or other personal information only when buying from a company you know and trust. Don’t share any personal information unless you know how it will be used and protected. And don’t reply to or click on links in any email asking for your personal information. 3. Use anti-virus software and a firewall, and update them regularly. Look for anti-virus software that rec- ognizes current viruses, as well as older ones; effectively reverses the damage; and updates automatically. If your firewall was shipped in the “off” mode, turn it on, and be sure to set it up properly. 4. Be sure to set up your operating system and Web browser software properly, and update them regu- larly. Select security settings high enough to reduce your risk of being hacked. Make sure to regularly update your system with the latest patches. 5. Protect your passwords. Keep your passwords in a secure place, and don’t share them on the Internet, over email, or on the phone. 6. Back up important files. If you have important files stored on your computer, copy them onto a removable disc, and store it in a safe place. 7. Learn who to contact if something goes wrong online. If you think you’ve been a victim of fraud, report it to 1-877-FTC-HELP or www.ftc.gov. You’ll be providing important information to help law enforcement officials track down and stop scam artists. You can also go to OnGuardOnline.gov, a site maintained by the FTC in partnership with other government agencies, Internet safety and help groups, and consumer organiza- tions. Click on “File a Complaint” to learn how to respond if problems occur when you’re online. OnGuardOnline.gov also provides practical tips from the federal government and the technology industry to help you be on guard against Internet fraud, secure your computer, and protect your personal information.

  • 1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER the Following Players Comprise the 1967 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set
    1967 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 1967 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards.
