NOTES FROM THE OCTOBER 20TH MEETING

• learn two things:  (1) U.S. Commonwealths: VA, PA, MA, Kentucky - (2) Don't answer scams!
• As we age we become less "sharp" minded.  Family's concern for our lives; maybe oversteps.  "Lie to them!"  Call DA offices for help.  Even call 911 if necessary.
  • Internet scammers - Emails pretending to be legitimate companies, i.e. Microsoft new update.  Do NOT open email you don't recognize.  IRS, Social Security will never call you.  Do NOT click on links.  If really Comcast/Microsoft, you can call them back to verify..
  • Robocalls -  use a local exchange you may recognize. If you don't know the number do NOT answer.  Let go to voicemail.  Don't "play" with them.  Will call again with another scam.  "Lie to them" if necessary to end call.
