Scammers are getting smarter. Their tactics are getting more convincing. And with new technology like artificial intelligence and voice cloning, it can be harder than ever to tell what’s real.
Join BFC at the Washington Public Library for a FREE Fraud & Scams Presentation designed to help you recognize the warning signs before you become a victim. Refreshments are provided.
During this approximately 45-minute presentation, we’ll break down some of today’s most common scams and fraud tactics, including identity theft, elder financial exploitation, fraudulent calls and messages, social media scams, investment fraud, money mule schemes, and emerging AI-powered threats such as deepfakes and voice-cloning scams.
We’ll also talk about how scammers get your personal information, the red flags to watch for, and practical steps you can take to better protect yourself and your finances.
Fraud can happen to anyone, but older adults are frequently targeted by scammers. Whether you’re looking to protect yourself or help protect a parent, grandparent, friend, or loved one, this presentation will give you practical information you can use.
