Free Virtual Seminar to Tackle ‘Guarding Against Loneliness and Financial Fraud’

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. — In recognition of International Fraud Awareness Week (Nov. 17-23), and with the holiday season right around the corner, American Eagle Financial Credit Union is helping the community stay both socially connected and financially safe.

The holidays are often described as the happiest time of year, but they can also bring added stress and feelings of loneliness. Individuals experiencing loneliness are often more vulnerable to scams and financial fraud. To help protect and empower the community, American Eagle will host a free virtual seminar, “Guarding Against Loneliness & Financial Fraud,” on Tuesday, Nov. 18 from 6 to 6:45 p.m.

The event is presented in partnership with For All Ages, a mission-driven organization that creates meaningful opportunities for people of all ages to connect, learn, and thrive, improving both mental and physical health. Industry experts will share how staying socially connected and financially informed can help safeguard attendees and their loved ones from scams and fraud. Topics will include how to strengthen relationships, spot red flags, and build confidence.

This event is free, open to the public, and is being offered only as a virtual event. Advance registration is required. To register or learn more about this event, visit www.americaneagle.org/virtualseminar.
