AARP Maryland

Romance scams have become one of the top drivers of crypto currency fraud, because once the criminal creates a deep connection with their victim, they are able to get that person to do things they wouldn’t normally do.

AARP Foundation Tax-Aide is providing free in-person and virtual tax assistance and preparation now through April 15 throughout Maryland. The nation’s largest free, volunteer-based tax assistance and preparation program helped secure more than $1.1 billion in refunds for more than 1.5 million taxpayers last year. Tax-Aide is offered in conjunction with the IRS, and AARP membership is not required.

The annual program aims to make communities in Maryland more livable for people of all ages.

It’s the season of giving, and for those in the spirit, telling the difference between a real charity and a con can be a challenge.

Most of us do it several times a day. We have a question, need a phone number or are looking for a website, so we open a search engine and type in our request. What happens next is becoming more and more dangerous.

While education is critical to combatting fraud, we can’t educate our way out of the fraud crisis.

For the first time since AARP began publishing the Scorecard in 2011, more than half of Medicaid long-term care dollars nationwide for older adults and people with physical disabilities went to home- and community-based services instead of nursing homes and other institutions.
