Thank you to everyone who joined us for our recent Senior Scam Stopper Seminar—an important conversation on how to protect yourself and loved ones from scams targeting older adults.
In 2024 alone, U.S. seniors lost an alarming $4.8 billion to fraud—a 33% increase from the year before. To help fight back, I brought together experts from the California Contractors State License Board, California Department of Justice, Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, and HICAP of San Mateo County to share tools, tips, and warning signs to watch for.
Whether or not you were able to attend, I encourage you to access the PowerPoint presentations shared by our expert panelists and review the vital information they provided:

- HiCAP "Medicare Fraud: Detection and Prevention"
