Fraud Prevention Forums

Whitehall Public Library and Country Meadows of Allentown

I am pleased to invite you to free forums I will be hosting to highlight postal, phone and internet scams and other schemes that are targeted at defrauding our citizens and particularly seniors.

Monday, May 14, 2012:

9:30am-11:00am

Whitehall Public Library

3700 Mechanicsville Road, Whitehall, PA 18052

1:00pm-2:30pm

Country Meadows of Allentown, Building 4

410 Krocks Road, Allentown, PA 18106

I hope you will be able to attend these informative sessions. The Federal Trade Commission and the United States Postal Inspectors Office will present information about how you can protect yourself against schemes that could cost you money or result in identity theft. Some examples of topics that will be covered include falsely advertised medical discount plans, credit and loan offers, and government grant scams.

In addition to the presentation, my staff will be available to assist you with any personal issues you may have involving federal agencies or programs.

If you have questions about these events or need additional information please contact my offices in the Lehigh Valley at (610) 770-3490 or Montgomery/Berks County at (215) 541-4106.
