The course - Scams Against Seniors - is part of my mentorship of the Facebook Group 'Generation:Boomers-Aging Fearlessly'. It is designed to give an overview of current scams against elderly people (although victims are found in all age groups), with suggested ways to avoid becoming a scam victim. The course is free (no cost involved) and requires no previous knowledge or skills. At the conclusion of the course you should have a reasonable understanding of scams and how they affect older people.
