On Wednesday, May 29, Jewish Federation of Northern New Jersey hosted a seminar in collaboration with the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office aimed at giving the public tools to combat fraud and scams perpetrated online, by phone and in the world. “Fight the Scammers” was well attended as participants learned the strategies and tactics criminals typically employ in their scams to prey on and steal from unsuspecting individuals. Detectives from the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office gave good common-sense tips and advice on how to protect ourselves while on the phone, at the ATM and using email.

“Fight the Scammers” was co-sponsored by J-ADD, Jewish Family & Children Services of Northern New Jersey, Kaplen JCC on the Palisades, JCC of Northern New Jersey, and The Jewish Home Family.
