Elder Financial Exploitation is a Growing Threat. Here’s What You Can Do.

Elder financial exploitation is a growing threat, but families can take proactive steps to protect their loved ones. Here's how you can help safeguard seniors from scams and fraud:

✅ Stay involved: Regular check-ins and open conversations about finances help detect unusual activity early.
✅ Encourage direct deposit: This reduces the risk of lost or stolen checks.
✅ Monitor accounts: Help your loved one set up alerts for large withdrawals or suspicious activity.
✅ Create safeguards: Set up a financial power of attorney with a trusted family member to oversee transactions.
✅ Educate about scams: Warn seniors about common fraud tactics like fake calls from government agencies or lottery scams.

Families can help prevent financial abuse before it starts by taking these steps.
