It’s the most wonderful time of the year...for both you and scammers. According to a 2023 AARP Holiday Shopping Fraud report, 80% of U.S. consumers have experienced holiday-related fraud. But what are the top scams? Here’s what you need to know to stay safe this holiday season:
ORLANDO, Fla. – Lydia Rivera, lead AARP Orlando volunteer and organizer of AARP’s Walk with a Doc initiative in Kissimmee has been elected as Walk with a Doc’s newest member of their Board of Directors.
November is National Family Caregivers Month, a time dedicated to recognizing and honoring the selfless work of caregivers across the country. This month highlights the challenges faced by family caregivers, celebrates their dedication, and raises awareness about the support they need. Whether caring for an aging parent, a child with special needs, or a loved one with a chronic illness, caregivers play a crucial role in providing comfort and stability.
AARP brings you events and experiences to uplift and enjoy. So, during this festive season, we’re thrilled to announce two exciting sweepstakes!
AARP Minnesota is pushing for the passage of legislation to create a state-level Consumer Fraud Restitution Fund (Fund) for victims of fraud, modeled after the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Civil Penalty Fund.
Helena, Mont., Nov. 19, 2024 – In a heartwarming and emotional reunion, 100-year-old Holocaust survivor Helena Stefaniak was granted her greatest wish: to reunite with her sister Barbara one last time. The sisters, who survived the horrors of Nazi Germany’s occupation of Poland during World War II, were reunited last summer through the efforts of Wish of a Lifetime, a charitable affiliate of AARP dedicated to fulfilling the dreams of older Americans.
Tax filing season may be months away, but the AARP Foundation’s Tax-Aide program in Nebraska is already seeking volunteers who want to serve their community. Tax-Aide focuses on serving older adults with low to moderate income and helps them secure much-needed tax refunds.
Across the country, someone’s identity is stolen every two seconds. Fraud is an escalating crisis, with losses far exceeding what is reported. While $9 billion in fraud losses were reported in 2022, The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) estimates the true financial impact at $137 billion due to underreporting. The impact on victims and their families can be financially and emotionally devastating, especially for older Americans.
Jack Lunsford is still amazed when he considers how vast AARP’s mission is as an organization. AARP enhances the quality of life for older people, promotes their independence, determines the role and place of older persons in society and improves the image of aging.
