The FBI – Federal Bureau of Investigation’s numbers are out, and they are devastating.
In just one year, financial losses from elder fraud jumped by 59%, totaling a staggering $7.7 billion. Behind these metrics are over 200,000 real people - ✨our parents, our grandparents, and our neighbors✨- who are being targeted with increasing sophistication, particularly with criminals leveraging AI.
The average loss is now $38,500. For many, that is a life’s work vanished in a single click or phone call.
