Protect Yourself from Financial Scams This Holiday Season

Financial scams and fraud can happen at any time but usually start to
increase during this time of year. Older adults are especially vulnerable.
Protect yourself and your loved ones from being scammed or becoming a victim of fraud this holidays season.

Area Agency on Aging for SWFL is participating in this year’s Home for the Holidays campaign, a national campaign led by USAging and the Eldercare Locator. The campaign features a brochure, Protect Your Wallet: A Guide to Avoiding Financial Scams, which highlights common scams that target older adults, tips for avoiding scams and resources for reporting scams.
