The Federal Trade Commission is launching a comprehensive new campaign to increase consumer awareness of cancer treatment scams.

As a first step, the FTC launched a new web site devoted to this very important issue. The website is http://ftc.gov/curious.

Roswell Park enthusiastically supports this educational campaign which will help the public identify and report fraudulent cancer treatment claims and schemes. If you are a cancer patient and have questions about a new "miracle" treatment that promises to cure your disease, talk to your doctor.
