Recycling Center Hours
Seniors are often the most vulnerable and
targeted group for financial scams.
According to the National Crime Prevention
Council, fraudulent telemarketers direct 56
percent to nearly 80 percent of their calls at
older customers. Finding and prosecuting these
criminals can be very difficult. Financial scams
frequently go unreported because seniors do not know who to
report to or may not realize they have been scammed. Some of the
most common scams include health insurance fraud, telemarketing
fraud, internet scams, charity scams etc.
To help prevent and identify potential scams follow these tips:
 Never sign blank insurance claim forms
 Don’t buy from an unfamiliar company. Always check out
unfamiliar companies with your local consumer protection
agency ( Better Business Bureau, Wisconsin State Attorney
General, The National Fraud Information Center)
 Don’t pay for services in advance
 Don’t send money or give out personal information (i.e. bank
account numbers, social security, dates of birth) to unknown
persons or companies
 If you suspect something is wrong do not hesitate to call the
police or family member/friend.
