We will be presenting about Frauds & Scams in partnership with the Victoria Immigrant and Refugee Centre.
In 2022 in Canada, there were 91,190 reports of fraud totaling 57,055 victims of fraud with a total of $431M lost. This workshop introduces what frauds and scams are, common methods and schemes targeting Canadian seniors, safety strategies, and resources to consult if you or someone you know has been affected by frauds/scams.
