This post<\/a> on CreditSlips.org<\/strong><\/a> by Professor Bob Lawless<\/a> notes an increase of TV ads by debt relief companies such as Corporate Turnaround<\/strong><\/a> aimed at small business owners.\u00a0 Lawless also explains that Corporate Turnaround is just another name for a company called Commercial Credit Counseling Services, Inc. which has been reprimanded and issued cease-and-desist orders by by several states including Oregon<\/a> and Indiana<\/a>, not to mention a letter to the Federal Trade Commission<\/a> by 40 state attorneys general detailing the abuses by the debt relief industry.<\/p>\n
