It's Senior Fraud Awareness Day, Roadhaven, and a reminder that scams can happen to anyone, and being prepared to respond in a pressured situation is one of the best protections.
Here are 3 tips to prevent fraud: 🔒
• Be cautious of anyone asking for payment by gift card, wire transfer, or cryptocurrency. Never give personal or banking information to unsolicited callers, texts, or emails, even if they claim to be from a trusted company or government agency.
• When in doubt, verify independently. Scammers can "spoof" a real phone number to look legitimate on Caller ID, so hang up and contact the business, bank, or family member directly using a trusted phone number.
• Don’t click suspicious links or open unexpected attachments.
Knowledge is protection. Stay informed, stay cautious, and help spread awareness in our Roadhaven community. 💛
