Schemes, Scams and Fraud: From sweepstakes and lottery scams to identity theft and
investment fraud, the con artists always manage to stay just a step ahead of us. We have to
be careful when we receive an invitation for a free meal at a local restaurant from someone
wanting to help us invest or manage our hard-earned money. Telemarketing calls invade our
privacy daily. We can no longer trust what we hear from someone trying to get his hand into
our wallet or bank account. Consumers must be pro-active in protecting our money by
being aware and informed about current scams and frauds. This educational and engaging
presentation is filled with tips and practical information. Our instructor, Mary Bach, is a long
-time, nationally recognized, independent Consumer Advocate. As a volunteer, she is also
