New laws that provide South Dakota residents with greater consumer protections—championed by AARP South Dakota and its volunteers at the state capitol—take effect July 1.
One allows buyers who make a door-to-door purchase to cancel the sale electronically, such as via email.
Another makes it a felony for a person to use a scanning device to steal credit and debit card information from unsuspecting customers.
The laws are among the proposals passed by the Legislature and signed by the governor earlier this year.
