TAMPA, Fla. – Florida’s Attorney General Pam Bondi launched a new consumer protection program on Wednesday to help protect veterans and active service members from scams.
The Military and Veterans Assistance Program (MVAP) will help stop deceptive business practices affecting military service members and veterans.
