-- How Will You Use This Story? --
(OPEN):
THURSDAY-MORNING [OCTOBER 22ND], "A-A-R-P
ALABAMA" WILL HOLD A FREE, STATEWIDE TELECONFERENCE, ON HOW TO BOTH PREVENT AND REPORT FRAUD.
AMONG THE SCHEDULED PANELISTS IS RETIRED PROSECUTOR, PAUL GREENWOOD...
(GREENWOOD):
"OUR EVENT WILL HIGHLIGHT ELDER FINANCIAL-EXPLOITATION; PANDEMIC- OR DISASTER-RELATED SCAMS; AND OTHER FRAUDS THAT ARE AFFECTING ALABAMIANS RIGHT NOW.
WE'LL ALSO TAKE QUESTIONS FROM THE PUBLIC. FRAUD TAKES VARIOUS FORMS:
IT CAN BE PERPETRATED BY SOMEONE YOU KNOW--SUCH AS A FAMILY-MEMBER, A FRIEND, A CO-WORKER, SOMEONE FROM YOUR CHURCH, OR SOMEONE IN A POSITION OF TRUST.
THEY'RE OPPORTUNISTS WHO LOOK FOR SOME AFFINITY--OR A CONNECTION WITH YOU.
PEOPLE SHOULD BE MORE SKEPTICAL, WHEN APPROACHED ABOUT GIVING EITHER MONEY OR INFORMATION:
ALWAYS TAKE TIME TO RESPOND TO THESE REQUESTS--AND BE CAREFUL."
(CLOSE):
THURSDAY'S EVENT STARTS AT 10 A-M:
TO PARTICIPATE, CALL 1-855-436-3541. AND, TO LEARN MORE, VISIT
