Happy birthday, Tennessee! Tennessee celebrates its 230th birthday (Statehood Day) on June 1, marking the date in 1796 when President George Washington signed the bill admitting the territory as the 16th U.S. state. 230 years sure looks good on you.

They target the elderly. They disarm you.

When a damaging storm hit Michigan, one homeowner trusted a contractor to help. That trust was exploited.

NICB sat down with the victim to hear their story firsthand — because this isn't a rare occurrence. Contractor fraud is on the rise, and the elderly are often in the crosshairs.
