Scotch Plains Library to Host Consumer Fraud Protection Program

From the IRS phone scam to lottery and sweepstakes schemes to the so-called grandparent scam, it appears that imposter frauds and other criminal scams are more active than ever — and are preying on potential victims in New Jersey through phone calls, emails, and other means.

On Monday, May 3 at 7 pm, a representative from the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs will join the library for a virtual presentation on how to avoid being scammed.
The Division of Consumer Affairs is your resource for important consumer information. For information about a New Jersey business or professional license, or to report suspected fraud, call our Consumer Service Center at 800-242-5846.

Registration is required to receive the Zoom link to this program.

The registration form, and information about the library’s entire month of programming, can be found at www.scotlib.org. For more information, please call 908-322-5007 x 204.
