💙 Protecting Older Adults from Scams
Financial scams targeting older adults are becoming increasingly sophisticated, using fear, urgency, and even AI to convince people to share personal information or send money.
Families and caregivers can help reduce the risk of financial exploitation by encouraging older adults to pause before responding to unexpected calls, texts, emails or requests for payment. Open communication, regular account reviews, and a trusted person to consult can also provide important protection. By working together, families and caregivers can help older adults protect their finances, preserve their independence, and avoid costly mistakes.
