Fraud Prevention 101: Protecting Yourself From Scams

Scams and fraud can happen to anyone. Join a fraud prevention specialist from the Guelph Police Service for an engaging presentation on the latest scams affecting everyday people. Learn how fraudsters use urgency, fear, and offers that seem too good to be true to trick their victims. Through real-life examples, videos, and case studies, you'll discover how common scams unfold, recognize warning signs, and learn practical steps to protect yourself and your loved ones from becoming victims of fraud.
