Avoiding the debt advice scammers

The FCA has issued a warning to consumers about a 'clone' firm impersonating StepChange Debt Charity using the names 'Step to Change' and 'Step Changing'. The debt advice charities are working with regulators and internet search engines to spot and act against scams, which affect all the debt advice charities.
