Posted on 03/31/22 by The AARP Bulletin

Securely disposing of documents that contain your personal information—such as bank statements, canceled checks, receipts and credit-card junk mail—is one way to avoid becoming a fraud victim.

  • April 22 in Syracuse (10 a.m. to 1 p.m.)

  • April 30 in Poughkeepsie (9 a.m. to noon) and Buffalo (10 a.m. to 1 p.m.)

The office will also offer virtual fraud prevention presentations throughout the spring.
