This month, the Fraudlette hosts an engaging discussion on the financial exploitation of older adults, including trends, tactics and tools for prevention.

About the Event

For our August topic in this free monthly virtual series, AARP Illinois staffer Courtney Hedderman - aka the Fraud-Fighting Fraudlette - will share tips and real-life examples to help protect you against financial exploitation. She’ll touch on topics such as current trends, some of the tactics fraudsters use, and tools to fight off con artists and their scams.

For more information and resources on scam prevention, go to the AARP Fraud Watch Network Helpline.

Stay informed and stay safe with Courtney, the Fraud-Fighting Fraudlette!
