Fraud ... times four!

Don't even know where to start, there is so much fraud out there. Guess we should begin where the wheels are squeakiest and that would be debit card fraud. It ramped up starting last Friday and our friends in southeast Oklahoma were particularly hard hit over this past weekend. Our bankers are collecting breach information on the spreadsheet (click here) provided by the Secret Service and I can assure you Agent Matt Ralls is diligently working on this. The question remains, what is OBA doing to help you on this front? Quick answer is "a lot" but we do need your continued help.

Summary of Conference Report on H.R. 4173

The following outline provides a brief description of most of the key points in the Conference Report on H.R. 4173, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. It was passed by the U.S. House of Representatives on a vote of 237-192, and the Senate on a vote of 60-39. All seven members of the Oklahoma delegation voted “NAY” on final passage, as the OBA had requested.

This summary is not intended as a complete review of the legislation, but we will be able to post more information and timetables on our Web site shortly. It is arranged in the order of the questions we've been fielding about it rather than on a title-by-title basis. The more detailed information we'll be posting on the Web site and will track with the bill's sections.
