Join AARP in Little Rock May 13 for Operation: Stop Scams FREE shredding event!

Every 2 seconds someone’s identity is stolen. But you can fight back against fraud!

To help consumers protect themselves from ID theft, AARP’s Fraud Watch Network and AARP Arkansas are hosting Operation: Stop Scams FREE shredding events in Arkansas. Our first shredding event in this series, held in Fayetteville on April 30, had a great turnout.

The next shredding event will be held in Little Rock on Saturday, May 13, and as in Fayetteville, we'll partner with a local shredding provider to take any confidential documents you no longer need and shred them for FREE!

Shredding will be done on-site…the most secure way to shred. Plus all material is 100 percent recycled. In 2 or 3 weeks, shredded documents will become paper towels, napkins or bathroom tissue.

Instead of a charge for shredding, AARP suggests a voluntary donation of non-perishable food.
