From fake tech support calls to phony prize notifications to scammers posing as family members in need, online scams are getting harder to spot and more costly when they succeed. In this session, we'll walk through real, current examples of the scams making the rounds like catfishing, job offers, or even just "wrong numbers." You'll learn how to spot the warning signs, what to do if something feels "off," and which everyday habits keep you and your loved ones safer every time you go online. Whether you're managing your finances, keeping up with grandkids on Facebook, or simply looking for more peace of mind using the internet, this session will help you browse with confidence — not fear. Bring your questions. Bring a friend, neighbor or family member. Let's learn how to look out for each other. Reserve your spot (in-person or virtual): https://forms.gle/MjBhN4mJ3hoBZ8Sd8
