Regional Community Fraud Forum


Every day, scammers are taking advantage of hardworking consumers and businesses struggling to make ends meet. To keep Ohioans informed of the latest scams, the Ohio Attorney General's Office is hosting regional Community Fraud Forums.

Come learn about programs and services the office provides to help communities fight back against financial predators and share your concerns and experiences with financial issues.
 
Experts from the office will highlight how we can protect consumers, especially our senior population. Law enforcement officials also are invited to learn more about collaborating with our new Economic Crimes Division. 
 
One hour of continuing education credit (CEU) will be provided to social workers. Crime prevention specialists will receive .5 CPS credit for attending. Please click here for a list of forum locations.
 
Organizations including local, state, and federal agencies will be invited as exhibitors to the forum.
