THE SAFE GUARD FORUM Scam Awareness and Fraud Education – Generating Understanding and Resilience Through Dialogue

This inaugural roundtable about Elder Financial Abuse is focused on
Transnational Fraud and Schemes Targeting the Elderly.

 

 

Dr. Natalie Ebner is presenting as the science expert on the topic.

Her presentation will summarize current knowledge on human
factors and deceptive contexts that enhance susceptibility to
deception in aging. Understanding the multifaceted factors that
contribute to deception risk in aging is crucial for developing
interventions and strategies to protect older adults from financial
exploitation. Tailored approaches, including age-specific warnings
and harmonizing artificial intelligence as well as human-centered
approaches, can help mitigate the risks and protect older adults
from fraud.
