Caring for an older loved one comes with a lot of responsibility—and protecting them from fraud is part of that care. Scammers often target older adults through phone calls, emails, texts, social media, and fake tech support messages. The good news: there are simple ways caregivers can help reduce risk and start important conversations.
This National Senior Fraud Awareness Day, we're sharing a few ways to help protect the people you care about. The most important tip we can share: no legitimate request should ever feel rushed or secret.
