Hundreds of millions of dollars are lost in the U.S. to fraud and scam each year, but fraud only succeeds when victims don't identify the scam or scammer in time. This makes education the easiest and most cost-effective measure to reduce the damage fraudsters can inflict. Librarians, administrators, and library staff are on the front lines with the public, and are invited to join this 'Train the Trainer' seminar to learn the top scams affecting individuals and businesses, answers to frequently asked questions by the public, and discover additional resources at their disposal to help them protect their communities from fraud and scam. Sponsor: DLA/CRLD This program is worth 1 contact hour of continuing education.
