Fraudsters continue to employ familiar scam tactics—such as romance scams, investment schemes, and government impersonations—but are now increasingly soliciting payments through cryptocurrency kiosks.
Nebraska’s cryptocurrency landscape has been evolving, and so have the risks associated with it. The Nebraska Legislature’s proposed Controllable Electronic Record Fraud Prevention Act (Legislative Bill 609), introduced by State Senator Eliot Bostar and endorsed by AARP Nebraska, passed final reading on March 6, and now awaits Governor Pillen’s signature to become law.
Under a new city ordinance in Omaha, individuals or businesses operating or providing access to a cryptocurrency ATM must post a written notice that warns consumers of the potential fraud risks associated with using such machines.
By building trust and forging deep emotional connections, scammers can manipulate their victims into making financial decisions they would not normally consider.
AARP Nebraska invites eligible, local nonprofit organizations and government entities to apply for the 2025 AARP Community Challenge grant program, now through March 5, 2025, at 4 p.m. Central. AARP Community Challenge grants fund quick-action projects that help communities become more livable by improving public places, transportation, housing, digital connections, and more.
LB609, introduced by State Senator Eliot Bostar and endorsed by AARP Nebraska, aims to establish regulations for cryptocurrency kiosks, commonly known as digital currency ATMs. The proposed requirements include the licensing of state operators, imposing daily transaction limits, issuing fraud warning notices, providing transactional information receipts, and capping fees.
With temperatures dropping in many states, scammers are turning up the heat on their deceptive tactics.
