Every year, scammers target seniors to get access to their personal information and money. Seniors lost $28.3 billion annually, according to a 2023 report by AARP. Many elderly victims don’t report fraud out of fear of embarrassment. Older adults are less likely to be tech-savvy and more likely to be home during the day to answer phone calls or reply to emails. Scammers know that many seniors may have accrued a lifetime of savings and own their own home. Senior scams can cost older adults everything from their life savings to their homes. The growing incidence of senior fraud is putting many older adults in harm’s way, threatening to strip them of their assets, independence, and trust. This lecture will examine the ins and outs of senior scams, as well as explaining the most common scams. This lecture will teach you how to identify scams and will also offer real-world advice on preventing and reporting scams.
