Fraud Prevention 101: Protecting Yourself From Scams

Fraud Prevention 101: Outsmarting Scammers Like a Pro
Scammers are getting smarter—but so can you. If your inbox has ever said, “Your account is locked!” or “Click here to claim your prize,” it might be time to level up your scam-spotting skills.
Join us on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, from 11:00AM to 12:30PM in San Carlos for Fraud Prevention 101: Protecting Yourself From Scams—a free, eye-opening workshop that’ll help you dodge digital traps like a champ.
Tech expert Amy Culpepper of PepTech will walk you through:
- How to recognize phishing emails and sketchy texts
- What tech support fraud really looks like (spoiler: they’re not calling to fix your Wi-Fi)
- Why AI-driven scams are the new frontier—and how not to fall for them
This session is adult-friendly (19+) and extra helpful for the 55+ crew navigating an internet full of “too-good-to-be-true” offers. It’s all happening at The Lounge, and trust us—you’ll leave feeling sharper, safer, and way less likely to click that weird link.
No fear, no judgment—just real talk and smart tips. Scammers beware: you’re about to get scam-proof.
