I am teaming up with Farmers State Bank of Western Illinois and the Illinois Attorney General’s office to host a scam prevention seminar on Tuesday August 20.
We have all heard the stories of financial scams going around, seemingly every week. Many of us even have friends and relatives who have been harmed by a scammer. Some of the stories are truly heartbreaking.
To raise awareness of these scams and how to avoid them, I will be joining with Farmers State Bank of Western Illinois, local sheriffs and the office of the Illinois Attorney General to present a scam prevention seminar next month.
The Attorney General’s office will provide information on scams and updates on the most current types of scams targeting all of us – at all ages. Local sheriffs will attend and discuss scams they are seeing throughout their counties.
Join us at the Oxford American Legion in Alpha from 9 a.m. until 10 a.m. on Tuesday August 20 to find out how to protect yourself and your loved ones from being scammed.
