(Boise) – Idaho Attorney General Lawrence Wasden will speak on May 11 to thousands of AARP Idaho members to discuss fraud, identity theft and how to avoid becoming the next victim of a costly scam.

The Attorney General’s Office is the leader in Idaho for enforcing the state’s consumer protection laws and helping educate citizens on avoiding fraud. Wasden will be joined by Brett DeLange, Chief of the Attorney General’s Consumer Protection Division and state director Lupe Wissel from AARP Idaho, which has more than 178,000 members statewide.

“One of the missions of my office is help Idahoans understand the various things they can do to protect themselves,” Wasden said. “The best strategy for fighting fraud includes the important element that consumers must educate themselves. While my office can help consumers after they have been cheated, informed consumers are the best line of defense.”

Members of the media are invited to join the call and encouraged to participate.

The statewide town hall is scheduled for May 11 and begins at 11:00 a.m. MTN. The toll free call number is 1-877-229-8493, followed by the PIN 114768.
