National Cybersecurity Awareness Month: Avoiding Fraud Online
Students and staff, please join us to talk about avoiding fraud and scams.
Wednesday, October 30 at 1:30pm
Room 6-374 (in the 600 Building)
October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and people in their 20s and 30s are 25% more likely to report losing money to fraud than adults over 40 according to a Federal Trade Commission Data Spotlight Report. In the majority of those reports, young people lose money online. That’s why officials are spending time this month talking to young people about how to avoid fraud online.
