Seminar: A Closer Look at Fraud and Recent Scams Image

April 3, 2025 - Poughkeepsie: Alumnae House, Vassar College - Seminar: A Closer Look at Fraud and Recent Scams

Last year we taught the basics of cyber security, and this year we’re going to take a closer look! More specifically we will explore topics including the dangers of check fraud, online takeover, and playing the role of an unwitting money mule. Unfortunately, attempts at these crimes by fraudsters are not uncommon. If anything, they are growing and evolving.

Join US in taking the power back from scammers by knowing what to spot! There will also be take-home information available about other common types of scams for you to review and share. Presented by Carl Naumann, Assistant Vice President of Security for Ulster Savings Bank.

Free. Snacks included.
