Scams awareness & prevention

Would you like to better protect your clients/patients (and yourself) against fraudsters?

Research shows that being scammed or defrauded can have medical & social consequences, as well as the obvious financial loss.

So, for our September online talk, we have invited Chris Balfour (Scams Awareness Officer at AgeUK Northumberland) to talk to us about AgeUK’s scam prevention work and the support they can offer to both the public and to professionals.

Chris will cover:

1.What are the main types of scams being used nowadays?

2.Tools & techniques for protecting yourself against scammers

3.Where & how you can access further support and how reporting scam attempts can help reduce the problem

There will be an opportunity to ask questions after the talk.
