Technological advances have changed the way we transact business. These advances affect personal communications, such as email or text messages, as well as grocery shopping and banking. However, advanced technology provides scammers and spammers a prime opportunity to take advantage of everyone, particularly older adults, and most especially with the impact of national or global health crises. This program will help attendees learn how to avoid becoming a victim of a scam and how to help protect older loved ones from falling prey to scams and fraud.
