In an effort to equip older adults with the tools and knowledge needed to outsmart today’s most deceptive fraud tactics, State Senator Meg Loughran Cappel is collaborating with other elected officials to host a fraud prevention seminar for seniors.
“Every year, we are seeing more reports of seniors falling victim to financial exploitation,” said Loughran Cappel (D-Shorewood). “Seminars like these allow seniors and family members a chance to hear from experts about common scams and learn about ways they can keep their life savings safe.”
The Senior Fraud Seminar will be held Tuesday, July 8 from 9-11 a.m. in the Bolingbrook Community Room, located at 201 Canterbury Lane in Bolingbrook, in partnership with the Bolingbrook Area Chamber of Commerce, Bolingbrook Mayor Mary Alexander-Basta and State Representatives Natalie Manley and Dagmara Avelar. Attendees will learn how to protect themselves, friends and family from scam artists, fraudulent businesses, identity theft and phone spoofing. A liaison from the Illinois Attorney General’s office will also be there to give a presentation.
