SEPT 23 MEDIA RELEASE__Each year, millions of older adults lose their savings and security to scams, dishonest caregivers, or even trusted friends and family members. Unfortunately, many cases go unreported until it’s too late. Our aim is to help bring awareness to this often lesser-reported category of financial fraud.
