Pass it On
Pass it On is a financial fraud education campaign developed by the Federal Trade Commission. It reinforces what older adults already know about some of today’s most common scams and some they don’t. It gives them a short and straightforward way to share that knowledge with family members, friends, and communities. The topics in the program include imposter scams, identity theft, charity fraud, health care scams, paying too much, and “you’ve won” scams.
