The event organized by the communal association of the lake district, in collaboration with the cantonal police and the Fribourg communal association, aims to inform you and help you protect yourself from fraudsters.
Unfortunately, senior citizens are often the target of fraudsters. Popular scams include the grandchild trick, where criminals pretend to be relatives in need and ask for money. Fake police officers who allegedly want to “secure” valuables are also common. Some criminals pretend to be tradesmen and demand excessive sums for services that have not been provided. Telephone scammers lure you in with competitions or contracts. Fake stores and phishing emails lurk on the internet.
Many senior citizens are pressured into handing over money and data through emotional pressure, intimidation or false promises. Education and caution are important to protect yourself.
