excesses of businesses and criminal laws against fraud and other consumer crimes. Specifically, this section includes articles on identity theft (referred to as &#8220;identity fraud&#8221; in Arkansas statute), which is prohibited under the state&#8217;s Deceptive Trade Practices Act; lemon laws, which protect consumers by requiring a refund or trade-in for new automobiles that fail to operate properly after attempts are made to remedy the problem; statutes prohibiting the use of so-called pyramid schemes; and related consumer laws.
