SCAMS ALL AROUND US: DON’T TAKE THE BAIT

Date: Tuesday, March 18
Time: 6:30 - 8:00 p.m.
Cost: Free; registration appreciated.
Location: Fellowship Hall
Presenter: Mary Bach

Many people own their own homes, have a steady income, a decent pension or, possibly, a nest egg. Criminals are very aware of these factors and go after the money. Imposters contact us, pretending to be from government agencies, popular businesses, and even a romantic interest, family member, or friend. Because of human nature and the tactics of the scammers, it is easy to be vulnerable.

Join Consumer Advocate Mary Bach for this informative, educational, and entertaining session about what to look for and how to protect yourself. Remember, if you can spot a scam, you can stop a scam!
