Don’t Get Scammed

MoneySmart at your library program at Rachel Kohl Community Library and the Swarthmore Public Library.

 

Learn about the weapons and deceptions that scam artists use to separate you from your hard earned money. What are those financial “free lunches?” What is a retirement specialist or senior specialist? Do you need their services? Learn how to protect yourself or your parents from fraud.

Two sessions of this important training will be held: at the Rachel Kohl Library on May 30 at 11:30 a.m. and the Swarthmore Public Library at 2 p.m. The programs are presented by Allen Stiteler from the Pennsylvania Securities Commission. For more information please call Susan Purcell @ 610-891-8622. Limited to 30 people.

Don’t Get Scammed is part of the MoneySmart@ your library project presented by the Delaware County Library System in cooperation with the Library Foundation of Delaware County. Funding for MoneySmart@ your library is provided by a grant from the FINRA Investor Education Foundation and the American Library Association.
