Eastern Oklahoma Development District Area Agency on Aging in Muskogee will host virtual watch parties in July for the second annual Fraud Prevention Virtual Program, sponsored by Metro Tech in Oklahoma City.
Metro Tech has partnered with local sheriff ’s offices, Oklahoma insurance departments, Bank of Oklahoma and the FBI as experts to share three separate topics on protecting online identity, banks and financial fraud, and healthcare fraud.
The Area Agency on Aging is accepting reservations through July 8 for seniors age 60 and up. To register or for questions, call 918-9139585 or email info@eoddok.org.
The events will take place at 1012 N. 38 Street in Muskogee from 8:30 a.m. to noon on July 12, 19 and 26. Space is limited, and registration is required for each day. Fraudsters educate themselves with the newest techniques to get anyone they can to fall for their schemes. One way to fight back is to educate ourselves.
