Tomorrow morning, a scam prevention seminar will be hosted in Alpha by Farmers State Bank of Western Illinois and the Illinois Attorney General’s office.
"We have all heard the stories of financial scams going around, seemingly every week," said an organizer. "Many of us even have friends and relatives who have been harmed by a scammer. Some of the stories are truly heartbreaking."
To raise awareness and provide strategies to avoid scams, the seminar will include presentations from Farmers State Bank of Western Illinois, local sheriffs, and representatives from the Illinois Attorney General's office.
The Attorney General’s office will offer information on various scams and updates on current scam trends affecting individuals across different age groups. Local sheriffs will also share insights on scams prevalent in their counties.
The event will take place at the Oxford American Legion in Alpha from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. on Tuesday.
