You're Invited to the Boise Fraud Prevention Summit!

Don’t be a Target or a Victim!

AARP Idaho in conjunction with the Idaho Scam Jam Alliance will host the state’s largest fraud and identity theft conference October 23 at the Idaho Chinden Campus Conference Center - Building 6. The Boise fraud prevention summit is a fun, educational and interactive forum where you can learn to avoid today’s scams and frauds while getting the tools you need to protect yourself and loved ones from con artists. Lunch is complimentary. There is also free parking available on campus.

Conferences like this are important because criminals have several ways of stealing your hard-earned money, including phishing scams, tech-support scams, and AI scams. Although their methods are different, research shows the tactics scammers use are the same.

The access to information that these forums provide is invaluable in the fight against fraud at the local level and across Idaho. We are happy to have you and look forward to the day!
