Scammers steal millions of dollars from Wisconsinites every year, and their tactics are constantly evolving. That’s why it’s more important than ever to arm yourself with the latest information you need to stay vigilant and battle the criminals on their own turf. Learn how to do this at our free fraud awareness “Scam Jam” event.
The Scam Jam will be held from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. on April 21 at the Zoofari Center, 9715 W. Bluemound Rd., Milwaukee. Experts from AARP Wisconsin, law enforcement, state agencies, and partnering organizations will discuss some of the latest scams around Artificial Intelligence, cryptocurrency, imposter fraud, romance scams, and others.
Many of us believe we are too smart or savvy to become the victim of a scam, but these criminals change their tactics all the time in an effort to separate you from your money. It’s important to be skeptical of any offer that seems too good to be true. But it’s even more critical to learn what the criminals are up to with the latest scams. That’s what our event is all about, and we invite everyone in the Milwaukee area to come and learn more.
People will be amazed at all the different tricks that scammers have up their sleeves to gain your trust and access to your information. Simple awareness of these tricks is one of the keys to protecting yourself. Our goal is to stop fraud in its tracks before another Milwaukee-area resident becomes a victim.
The Scam Jam is free, but advance registration is required. Click here to register or call 877-926-8300. The Scam Jam is free, and you do not need to be an AARP member to attend.
