Learn how to protect yourself against identity theft with Expo sponsor AARP workshop
Con artists don’t care how hard you worked. Identity theft, investment fraud and scams rob millions of Americans of their hard-earned money every year.
Research shows that more than $20 billion was stolen from about 13 million victims in 2012, according the latest Javelin Strategy and Research reports on identity fraud.
Older adults tend to be bilked out of about $3 billion every year.
