AARP Hearing Center
October is Scam Awareness Month in Somerset County! Learn how to be a fraud fighter to protect yourself and your loved ones from fraud and scam attempts.
Scams and identity theft rob thousands of Mainers of their hard-earned money every year. Scammers are smart, creative and relentless, but there are simple steps each of us can take to protect ourselves and our families from these crimes.
Join us and Somerset Economic Development for a local workshop that will help you recognize common scams and what you can do to avoid them. You’ll learn about useful resources and receive your own fraud prevention guide. Light refreshments will be provided.
Our informative presentations in five Somerset County locations will include time for Q and A with State Representative Liz Caruso, SEDC Digital Educator Scarlett DeShong, AARP Maine Fraud Watch volunteers, and local law enforcement. We are committed to working together in Somerset County to empower local residents in the fight against scams and fraud in Maine.
If you can spot a scam, you can help stop a scam!
