Description
It's the season of giving and receiving, and for scammers, the season for taking. It's the most wonderful time of the year for hackers, thieves and con artists looking to steal your money, your identity or both. So be on guard for look alike Websites, phony charities and phishing scams in the form of fake shipping notifications. Don't think it can't happen to you. Later, we'll meet a Browns fan with a huge Twitter following whose plans for an 0-16 Browns parade, which seems likely, has some laughing and some vein-popping mad. And we'll laugh about holidays past with Cleveland comedian Mike Polk Jr., before clearing out for Dick Feagler's 2014 narration of his classic "Christmas at Aunt Ida's" column.

Guests:
-Jon Miller Steiger, Director, East Central Region, Federal Trade Commission
-Sheryl Harris, Director, Cuyahoga County, Department of Consumer Affairs
-Chris McNeil, Planner, Browns "Perfect Season" Parade
-Mike Polk Jr., Newspaper Columnist, Actor, Comedian
