Helping connect Minnesotans to resources that help them save money and live their best life

Minnesotans who have been defrauded now have a better chance of financial recovery, thanks to a new bipartisan law championed by AARP Minnesota.

This innovative fund will help victims of fraud recover lost money—especially in cases where scammers are untraceable or bankrupt.
