Beware of "Obamacare" Scams

With a lot of attention on concerns and issues with Healthcare.gov in the news I think we should be extra vigilant in informing friends and families not to fall for online scams promising "Obamacare" insurance. Many of us have seen articles warning of such but scams like these pray on the uninformed. I did a quick search and found several websites promising easy enrollment. They make the pages look official. Many of these just link to other agencies that may or may not be health insurance at all and some may just offer quotes after asking or personal information.

The other danger is identity theft. I was a victim of identity theft that ruined my credit rating and took years to fix. I do not want anyone to go through what I did.

Here are a few that I found.
