Here there!  And, happy Friday!  I just wanted to share something on my heart this morning.  After some recent discussions with friends and family and seeing several related posts on social media, scammers are out in full force and you need to be hyper-vigilant.  It started with a friend getting a great offer with her small business.  I'm so thankful she asked the right questions and saw some of the red flags that made her think: "Wait, what?!"  She took to the Internet to find that the scam had been going on in other states.  It's great to find real pros to the Internet/Information Age, isn't it?  Others have been victim to identity theft and fraud by scammers posing to be companies they know and trust.  It can be an email asking to "There's a problem with your account, please update your payment information."  So many scammers are currently using "Amazon" because they realize pretty much everyone orders off Amazon.  You can't beat...
