Engagement in Elder Abuse Prevention

EAGLE is committed to building strong relationships with the people we serve, and that’s why we’ve created a variety of resources to help law enforcement keep their communities engaged and informed on elder abuse. To assist in outreach and training efforts, EAGLE has developed materials you can customize and download to use for social media and community presentations on elder abuse.

Our thanks to the National Center on Elder Abuse for the use of STEAP – Supports and Tools for Elder Abuse Prevention customizable materials.

A Reality TV Star's Telemarketing Scheme

Financial Elder Abuse happens in so many ways.  Here is a prominent example taken from the news.  Hoping to build her hobby into a business, Penny takes an online training course in social media marketing. After this initial small investment, she is flooded with calls from companies selling different website services. They promise big returns, but her investment of more than $30,000 with multiple companies doesn’t lead to a single sale. Penny reports the scam, but it’s not until she gets a call from a news producer that she learns that the person behind the scheme is none other than The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Jen Shah.
Listen to AARP's The Perfect Scam podcast to learn more about the reality TV star's telemarketing scheme.
