Jessie Schmidt---BBB---December is Identity Awareness Month---and we’ll have tips to spot that type of scam.

 

Jessie always does that –and we appreciate it

 

Among her tips---look for unexplained withdrawals, charges and accounts. Review your bank account and credit card statements regularly if not more. Look for unfamiliar charges, accounts or withdrawals. Scammers have changed address associated with your bank account of credit card. Debt collectors may call you about debts that aren’t yours. You can set up automatic alerts on your accounts.

Check your credit reports regularly for unauthorized inquiries and accounts—you do have the right to check your credit report for free with each of the three major credit bureaus at Annual Credit Report.com. 

If you believe you are a victim of identity theft—it is essential to act quickly—Contact your local law enforcement and visit identitytheft.gov. 

Jessie suggested sharing your experience with related scams on BBB Scam Tracker. 

In our segment which shares time with Teri Schmidt—Experience Sioux Falls and South Dakota---she’s back on January 3rd—Kip Rounds is missing as well—but Dave Lucchesi Game Fish and Parks joined us.

We’ll talk about the Great Outdoors for fish and game in 2024---it has been quite a year with a national pheasant hunt---and many more activities that make a lot of difference.

We’ll look ahead to 2025----

What about Downtown Sioux Falls---Brandon Hanson---yes he was added in the last season to keeping not only us—but so many others posted as to what to expect for the weekend and what he will help plan in the days ahead.

This morning---

A Christmas Carol at The Premier Playhouse—Friday at 7—it of course is the timeless holiday classic as Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by the ghosts of Christmas Past-Present and yet to Come. 

You can head over to the Cathedral of St Joseph tonight, Saturday or Sunday at 7:30 for Christmas at the Cathedral. This year—it’s titled “Go in Peace”—tells the Christmas Story thru the eyes of Simeon and Anna. This is an afternoon performance on Sunday as well. 

For those with little ones—Saturday is your chance to Meet Santa at the Washington Pavilion—it starts at 10AM—and yes a wish list should be brought—and you can snap a picture too.

Don’t miss the Winter Canvas Quest paint event on Saturday morning from 10 to noon at Serendipity Studios. It’s a fun, hands on workshop where you can create your own winter-inspired artwork. 

Yes virtually something for everyone---details available at dtsf.com/events

We’ll check the sports events upcoming—John Gaskins will talk about National Quarterfinals---SDSU is playing---and if they win and South Dakota win this weekend they could meet in the finals in Frisco Texas on January 6th.

Jimmy Ohlander-Sioux Falls Stampede—updates a key game this weekend and then Christmas holidays off—until 2025. We’ll get the latest on the team.
