Knowledge is power: Get facts straight during Colorectal Awareness Month

Did you know that colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer death among American men and women combined? One out of every three people are not up-to-date with screenings.

Sadly, 60 percent of colorectal cancer deaths could be prevented with screening: in fact, getting screened routinely starting at age 45 or 50, at the latest — is the most effective way to reduce your risk.

Abnormal growths, called polyps, can form in the colon or rectum. Through screenings, they can be removed early, before becoming cancerous. A person’s CRC risk increases as they age; about 90 percent of cases occur in adults 50 and up.

Some risk factors include:

Inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis

A personal or family history of colorectal cancer or colorectal polyps

A genetic syndrome, such as familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (Lynch syndrome).

The U.S. Multi-Society Task Force of Colorectal Cancer recommends:

People at average risk of CRC start regular screenings at 50.

African Americans at average risk of CRC start regular screenings at 45.

People in good health, and with a life expectancy of more than 10 years, continue regular CRC screenings through the age of 75.

People ages 76 through 85 should make a decision regarding screenings with their medical provider, based on personal preferences, life expectancy, overall health, and prior screening history.

People over 85 should no longer get CRC screening.

Decrease your risk for colorectal cancer with these lifestyle changes:

Regular physical activity

A diet high in fruits and vegetables

A high-fiber, low-fat diet or one that eliminates processed meats (cold cuts, sausage, bacon)

Eating less red meat

Limiting alcohol consumption

Avoiding tobacco use.

The recommended tests fall into two categories:

Stool-based tests are non-invasive and require no special diet or bowel preparation. If the test shows abnormal signs of blood, or a possible cancer or pre-cancer, a colonoscopy will be needed to confirm the result, and possibly remove any abnormal findings or polyps.

Visual or Structural tests are invasive tests that look inside the colon and rectum for abnormal areas that might be cancer or polyps. If a stool-based test was done first and had an abnormal result, a visual test, such as colonoscopy, can help find out why.

To prepare, you are asked to follow a special diet in advance and will also need to clean out your colon with strong laxatives (called a bowel prep) and sometimes with enemas, as well. Most people are sedated during the test.

Talk to your care provider about which screening option is the best for you. The life you save could be your own!

Guest Opinion: We Need a Budget That Reflects the Environment/Climate Change

Jeff Tittel

New Jersey Sierra Club

The Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee held a public hearing today on Governor Murphy’s proposed budget FY2021. The DEP budget has been cut by 34%, from $557 million to $342 million. The state service funding dropped 1.3%, from $253 million to $250 million. The Clean Energy Fund was raided by $113 million, with an

additional $30 million to be taken out of the fund for EV’s, NJ Transit, and the Whole House Project. Jeff Tittel, Director of the New Jersey Sierra Club, released the following statement:

“The environment has been shortchanged for far too long, and this budget is still shortchanging the environment. This year sees more cuts to the DEP. This budget is still raiding DEP funds and programs as well as the Clean Energy Fund. Funds for critical environmental programs like the Hazardous Discharge Fund were raided again like last year. We cannot continue to do these raids on the back of the environment. It is critical to fund and move New Jersey forward when it comes to important issues like climate change and clean energy, cleaning up toxic sites, and making sure our air is clean and our water is pure.

“Year after year, DEP is cut to the bone. Now Governor Murphy is cutting through the bone into the marrow, slashing the FY2021 budget by 34%. 15 years ago, the overall DEP budget was $516 million. Yet now, even with inflation and rising salaries, we are down to $342 million. The operations budget has dropped by 1.3%, from $253 million to $250 million. DEP needs more funding so that we have enough people to do the many jobs of the agency, including re-writing the rules that Christie rolled back. Enforcement is down, parks are in disrepair. We don’t have enough people to deal with the lead crisis, clean up toxic sites, and make sure our air is clean to breath and our water is clean to drink. As the state budget grows, the DEP budget declines.

“Staffing levels are going down without any new hiring at DEP, which will only expand privatization and outsourcing of DEP programs. The Environmental Integrity Project found that NJ is 10th in the nation for environmental funding cuts, with a 20% cut in DEP staff from 2008 to 2018. Governor Murphy promised to have 100 more DEP staffers than under Christie, but we are more than 150 below Christie – or 250 below what the Governor promised. DEP went from 4,400 staff members in the mid-1990’s to 2,321 in 2008, and now we are down to 1,858. DEP needs enough resources to make sure our land is clean, our air is pure, and we are able to keep parks open for the people of NJ.

“The budget continues to target our environment, as well as urban areas that suffer the most from pollution. They are grabbing $200 million in fees, fines and other funds. This money should be going toward brownfield cleanups. The Hazardous Discharge Fund is being raided by $19 million, and $17.5 million from the Spill Act Compensation Fund. That money should be going to urban areas for pollution cleanup, but instead it is being shipped out to the wealthy suburbs. Our urban areas are suffering the most because of money being diverted for other purposes. We’re taking money away from Newark and Linden and places that have been damaged and instead using it to plug a black hole in the budget. This budget has the wrong priorities, continuing to take money out of the environment and away from urban areas, and shifting it into wealthy suburbs. The diversion of these funds is a regressive tax that especially hurts working families and urban low-income communities.

“The budget raids $113 million from the Clean Energy Fund, which includes $80 million for NJ Transit and $30 million for EVs. NJ Transit needs a stable source of income because the system we have now is broken. Just like last year, this year NJ Transit is taking $460 million in capital funds for operations and maintenance. Diverting capital funds means that they don’t have the money for improvements and to expand lines like the Hudson-Bergen and South Jersey light rail lines. This is like robbing our future to pay for current expenses, or taking a second mortgage on a house to buy groceries. We need to fix this broken system and help NJ Transit move forward. Even though a law was passed to support EV infrastructure for the public, the state is not electrifying their fleet. We are lagging behind other states when it comes to EVs. New Jersey must find a sustainable source of funding for our transportation system so that we can have money for CEF and move forward with things like energy efficiency programs and EV infrastructure for our state.

“Money for open space is increasing, but the priorities are wrong for constitutionally dedicated CBT revenues for FY2021. Over the past decade funding is down 40% despite us adding 40% more open space. State parks are falling apart, but we have $500 million in backlogs. The funding formula reinforces funding inequities that continue to damage lower-income and minority communities. Money is being shifted from brownfield cleanups, watershed protections, and toxic site cleanups. The funding promotes stewardship projects, which are an excuse for logging public lands. We have seen in the past clear cutting forests and creating grass habitat under the guise of ‘stewardship.’ The priorities of this funding is wrong. There is no money going toward urban parks, Blue Acres, buying our flood-prone properties, or fixing our parks.

“We have major problems with our water in New Jersey, whether it is lead in our drinking water, algae in our lakes, stormwater management, or sewer overflows. A lack of testing and oversight has put New Jersey at risk, especially when it comes to lead in the drinking water. The $80 million is a start and a down payment, however we need a stable source of funding. Overall, the cost to fix New Jersey’s lead problem is $3.2 billion. The budget only includes $2 million for lake management programs. This is a miniscule drop in the budget for what is needed. Last year there were over 50 bodies of water in NJ that were closed or under advisory for high levels of cyanobacteria.Lake Hopatcong and Barnegat Bay will continue to be impacted by harmful algae and pollution without proper funding for critical programs like lake management. We also need to tie fixing our infrastructure to energy efficiency and renewable energy as well as green building, including blue and green roofs to reduce flooding.

\”Even though this year’s budget overall is better than last year’s, we still need to stop these raids and cuts for vital programs that affect our land, our air, our water, and cleanup of toxic sites. We need to fix our aging infrastructure, put more money into transit, and remove lead from our homes and schools. We need DEP’s budget to be restored. More funding for DEP and critical environmental programs means having enough staff to get the lead out of our children’s schools, moving New Jersey forward in energy efficiency, and reducing our impact on climate change. To get there, we need to make sure millionaires pay their fair share, get rid of corporate loopholes and subsidies, and make polluters pay for the damage that they have done to the environment. We need a budget with the right priorities, that is for the many and not for the special interest groups and the privileged few. We need a budget that reflects our values when it comes to the environment, climate change, and funding NJ Transit. The money is there – we need political will to put it in the right places.”

Atlantic City Electric Continues Efforts to Raise Awareness of Customer Scams

During National Consumer Protection Week

National Consumer Protection Week brings attention to common scamming practices and educates customers on how they can fight back and protect

themselves

MAYS LANDING, N.J.

(March 3, 2020) – Atlantic City Electric this week joins Utilities United Against Scams (UUAS) to recognize National Consumer Protection Week and to educate customers on how they can guard against falling victim to imposter utility scams.

As a member of UUAS—a consortium of 146 U.S. and Canadian electric, natural gas and water companies and their respective trade associations—Atlantic City Electric and its sister Exelon companies, Delmarva Power, BGE, ComEd, PECO and Pepco, work across the industry with regulators, law enforcement, and telecommunications partners to stop scams targeting customers.

“Nothing is more important than the safety of our customers, communities and our employees, and we are committed to equipping our customers with the information and resources they need to protect themselves from scammers,” said Derrick Dickens, senior vice president of Customer Operations and Chief Customer Officer for Pepco Holdings, which includes Atlantic City Electric. “National Consumer Protection Week provides us with an important opportunity to continue these efforts and work with our partner organizations through Utilities United Against Scams to broaden our awareness efforts to combat the utility scamming that continues to target our customers.”

UUAS and its member companies continue to create awareness of common and new scam tactics and, to date, have helped to cease operations of more than 6,000 toll-free numbers used against utility customers by scammers.

When scams occur, a customer typically receives an unsolicited phone call from an individual, who falsely claims to be a company representative. The scammer often warns that the customer’s service will be terminated if they fail to make a payment – usually within a short timeframe through a prepaid debit card or other direct payment method.

Scammers have even duplicated the telephone systems of some companies, so when customers call the number provided by the scammer, it sounds like a legitimate business. Some scammers also use caller ID “spoofing” to replicate a company’s phone number.

Throughout the year, Atlantic City Electric takes steps to raise awareness among its customers, including posting tips to social media, adding alerts on the

AtlanticCityElectic.com homepage

, issuing news releases, and participating annually in

Utilities United Against Scams Day

in November. Any customer who believes he or she has been the target of a scam is urged to contact their local police and call Atlantic City Electric immediately at 800-642-3780 to report the situation.

Signs of Potential Scam Activity:

The scammer often becomes angry and tells a customer his or her account is past due and service will be shut off if a large payment isn’t made – usually within less than an hour.

The scammer instructs the customer to purchase a prepaid debit or credit card – widely available at most retail stores – then call him or her back to make a payment.

The scammer asks the customer for the prepaid card’s receipt number and PIN number, which grants instant access to the funds loaded to the card.

The scammers may disguise themselves as the utility by sending spam emails with logos, trademarks, website links, and wording to lure the customer into making a false payment or providing personal information.

How Customers Can Protect Themselves:

Atlantic City Electric representatives will never ask or require a customer with a past due balance to purchase a prepaid debit card to avoid disconnection.

Customers can make payments online, by phone, automatic bank withdrawal, mail, or in person.

Customers with a past due balance will receive multiple shut off notifications – never a single notification one hour before disconnection.

If a customer ever questions the legitimacy of the call, hang up and call Atlantic City Electric at 800-642-3780.

Don’t Get Scammed: Customers can avoid being scammed by taking a few precautions:

Never provide your social security number or personal information

to anyone initiating contact with you claiming to be a company representative or requesting you to send money to another person or entity other than Atlantic City Electric.

Always ask to see a company photo ID

before allowing any Atlantic City Electric worker into your home or business.

Never make a payment for services to anyone coming to your door.

South Jersey Transportation Authority READI Field Trip

An osprey builds a nest on a platform constructed by the SJTA\’s Roadway Environmental Advancement Initiative (READI) team.

SJTA\’s READI to Present at 31st Annual Pinelands Short Course

Daylong program co-sponsored by Stockton University and NJ Pinelands Commission will feature field trip directed by SJTA

HAMMONTON, NJ – 02-24-20 – The

South Jersey Transportation Authority

is proud to announce its Roadway Environmental Advancement Initiative (READI) will conduct a field trip at the

31st

Annual Pinelands Short Course

co-sponsored by

Stockton University

and the

NJ Pinelands Commission

, Saturday, March 14, 2020.

The field trip is designed to show how the

Atlantic City Expressway

works to co-exist with wildlife and the land it occupies, which includes over 1,200 acres along its 44-mile span, much of which is in the pinelands of South Jersey.

The field trip is being run in coordination with the

New Jersey Fish and Wildlife Division

and will examine animal and wildlife fencing, wildlife crossings and a tour of the SJTA\’s Pinelands Interpretive Center at the Expressway\’s

Farley Plaza Service

area, where participants will learn about the pinelands and READI. The trip\’s activities will also feature a visit to see native flower plantings along the Expressway, including a hummingbird garden.

The SJTA launched READI several years ago when the Expressway Operations Department began reintroducing perennial and native wildflowers across 35 acres of the Expressway\’s right-of-way. The wildflowers attract and support important pollinators like bees and butterflies that are suffering from habitat loss and pesticide use. The goal is to reverse the population decline of these crucial pollinators.

The initiative evolved further when the Expressway installed a series of bat boxes or bat houses along the highway\’s right-of-way in 2017. While bats play a vital role in the ecology of local environments, they face numerous threats including the loss of habitat. The bat houses provide shelter and safety from predators.

The efforts of READI go beyond only supporting bats; it has installed structures for a variety of species including the American Kestrel, blue birds, screech owls and nesting platforms for ospreys near Atlantic City. The initiative has created animal crossings that allow wildlife to travel underneath the Expressway as they naturally migrate between different areas. The crossings will be examined during the field trip.

READI also has an educational component that involves presenting programs at local schools to support their environmental curriculums. Every year around Arbor Day, the Expressway Operations Department is invited to local elementary and middle schools to plant a tree(s) and present assemblies that impress on students the importance of practicing good environmental stewardship. The SJTA has visited more than 26 schools since 2011 and planted as many as 35 trees in a variety of species during the past four years. These programs invite student participation in the planting of a native tree(s) at each school visited.

September 20 – 23, 2020, the SJTA is joining the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife to co-host the

Northeastern Transportation and Wildlife Conference

in Atlantic City as READI expands its reach and work.

Texas Man Charged with Defrauding Cisco Systems, the Neat Company, iRobot Corporation, Amazon.com

Out of More Than $1.9 million in Merchandise

PHILADELPHIA PA (March 4, 2020)–– United States Attorney William M. McSwain announced that Reece A. Line, 23, of Pearland, Texas, was charged today by Information with 22 counts of mail fraud, eight counts of wire fraud, and three counts of tax evasion.

The Information alleges that the defendant perpetrated a scheme to defraud Cisco Systems Inc. (“Cisco”), the Neat Company (“Neat”), iRobot Corporation (“iRobot”), APC by Schneider Electric (“APC”), Amazon.com (“Amazon”), and other companies by engaging in a sophisticated warranty fraud scheme. The charges state that the defendant and his co-schemers obtained serial numbers to products sold or manufactured by Cisco, Neat, iRobot, and APC. They allegedly proceeded to register false domain names, obtain false email addresses, and submit false warranty claims, pretending to own products sold or manufactured by these companies that they claimed were not working. The Information alleges that the defendant provided customer service representatives with descriptions of the non-existent defects that he knew they could not solve by troubleshooting and would require replacement with new products. Cisco, Neat, iRobot, and APC then shipped the replacement products to the defendant and his co-schemers, which they promptly sold via eBay, on Amazon, or through computer resellers.

The Information further alleges that the defendant and his co-schemers defrauded Amazon by using false identities, domain names, email addresses, and mailing addresses to order products that they falsely claimed never arrived or arrived broken, thereby inducing Amazon to repeatedly send replacement products. The Information alleges that the defendant and his co-schemers then sold the products obtained in this manner via eBay.

All told, the defendant and his co-schemers successfully obtained at least $1,950,000 worth of products from the victim companies through their alleged fraud. The Information also alleges that the defendant evaded the payment of any income tax on the income he earned from his fraud for tax years 2014 through 2016 by, among other things, failing to file returns, storing his fraud proceeds in bank accounts and PayPal accounts in the names of co-schemers, storing cash at his residence, paying his personal living expenses with cash, and using false email addresses, false domain names, prepaid gift cards, and false identities to conceal his involvement in the fraud scheme.

“As alleged, the defendant engaged in a sophisticated fraud scheme that netted almost $2 million worth of products,” said U.S. Attorney McSwain. “Retail fraud, whether in brick-and-mortar stores or online, is a serious crime that must be punished and deterred. I would like to thank both the FBI and the IRS for their dedication and partnership in this matter.”

“Taxpayers are required to cooperate with the tax system by filing honest and accurate returns and paying their fair share,” said Michael Montanez, Acting Special Agent in Charge of IRS-Criminal Investigation. “The Special Agents of IRS-CI will continue to investigate and bring charges against those who intentionally violate our tax system.”

The defendant faces a maximum sentence of 825 years’ incarceration, a five-year period of supervised release, and a fine of $8,250,000.

The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Internal Revenue Service, Criminal Investigation Division, and is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Michael S. Lowe.

An Indictment, Information, or Criminal Complaint is an accusation. A defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.

Morristown Investment Adviser Who Breached His Fiduciary Duty to Customers Fined

Summary Penalty & Revocation Order

NEWARK – Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal and the Division of Consumer Affairs announced today that the New Jersey Bureau of Securities revoked the registration of a Morristown investment adviser representative and assessed $750,000 in civil penalties for selling more than $12 million of unregistered securities in New Jersey, including investments tied to Ponzi schemes and other fraudulent investment scams.

Gary Scheer, managing member and sole investment adviser representative of Retirement Financial Advisors, LLC in Morristown, recommended and sold unregistered securities in seven different investments to at least 50 investors from 2010 through 2018. The sales generated more than $600,000 in commissions for Scheer.

Six of the seven investments Scheer recommended ultimately were determined by federal and/or state authorities to be fraudulent. As a result of Scheer’s conduct, investors were defrauded of their hard-earned savings.

In the Summary Penalty and Revocation Order (“the Order”) issued by the Bureau today, the Bureau Chief found that Scheer breached his fiduciary duty and violated the New Jersey Securities Law.

“Investment advisers are expected to serve the interests of their customers with undivided loyalty, and not exploit them for financial gain,” said Attorney General Grewal. “We will not allow unscrupulous professionals to undermine the integrity of New Jersey’s financial industry by enriching themselves at the financial expense of their customers.”

Scheer recommended and sold the unregistered securities while working as a representative for several investment advisers over an eight year period. The underlying investments in the unregistered securities included franchises, pension income streams, real estate development, and mortgages.

To date, all but one of the unregistered securities have been identified as investment frauds. For example, Scheer steered his customers into the unregistered “Woodbridge Securities,” which is alleged to be a $1.2 billion Ponzi scheme that defrauded 8,400 real estate investors nationwide, and the unregistered “Northridge Securities,” an alleged fraudulent “fix-and-flip” real estate investment whose principal and entities were recently charged by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as running a $47 million Ponzi scheme.

According to the Order, Scheer violated the law by, among other things:

selling unregistered securities;

acting as an unregistered agent in the sale of those securities;

omitting or making material misrepresentations of the risks associated with the investments;

breaching his fiduciary duty by failing to conduct adequate due diligence before making the investment recommendations; and

breaching his fiduciary duty by failing to disclose significant conflicts of interest that were created by virtue of the undisclosed commissions being paid to him.

Scheer continued to advise customers to purchase unregistered securities even after he became aware that prior unregistered securities he recommended had come under regulatory scrutiny due to the issuers’ failures to register their securities and their fraudulent conduct, according to the Bureau’s findings.

“Scheer’s conduct represents an egregious breach of the fiduciary duty he owed to his customers,” said Paul R. Rodríguez, Acting Director of the Division of Consumer Affairs. “His actions resulted in serious financial consequences for investors, who are now left with the devastating impact of trying to recover their investments.”

Investor restitution efforts are underway by many of the federal and/or state authorities that brought the underlying enforcement actions against the issuers of the fraudulent securities Scheer sold.

“Investors must be able to trust that the investments they are sold are legitimate. Their investment professionals have a duty to conduct reasonable due diligence before making a recommendation,” said Christopher W. Gerold, Chief of the Bureau of Securities. “The Bureau of Securities will continue to aggressively enforce New Jersey’s Securities Laws against investment professionals that fail to fulfill their duties to their customer by selling unregistered and/or fraudulent securities.”

The Bureau’s investigation was handled by Deputy Bureau Chief Amy Kopleton, and Investigator Delfin Rodriguez.

Assistant Attorney General Brian F. McDonough, Deputy Attorney General and Section Chief Victoria Manning, and Deputy Attorney General Nicholas Dolinsky of the Securities Fraud Prosecution Section in the Division of Law represented the Bureau in this matter.

The Bureau is charged with protecting investors from investment fraud and regulating the securities industry in New Jersey. It is critical that investors \”Check Before You Invest.\” Investors can obtain information, including the registration status and disciplinary history, of any financial professional doing business to or from New Jersey, by contracting the Bureau toll-free within New Jersey at 1-866-I-INVEST (1-866-446-8378) or from outside New Jersey at 973-504-3600, or by visiting the Bureau\’s

website

. Investors can also contact the Bureau for assistance or to raise issues or complaints about New Jersey-based financial professionals or investments.
