On today’s episode, Wes sits down with a woman who has dedicated her life to finding ways to protect retirement assets.

As the director of victim support for the AARP Fraud Watch Network, Amy Nofziger has nearly two decades of experience in fraud prevention and victim support. A certified fraud examiner, she’s worked with the Wall Street Journal, Live with Kelly and Ryan, and Dr. Phil, among others, to shed light on consumer exploitation.

The heinous nature of fraudsters is matched only by their cunning methods. Amy’s seen everything from business impersonators to LinkedIn scams to Crypto gift cards. There was even a guy named the Tinder Swindler who used romance to con unsuspecting women.

Amy says fraud happens to people of all ages, but because older folks tend to have more money, they are bigger targets. $8.8 billion was reported lost last year, and due to underreporting, that number might be ten to twenty times higher. Sadly, most people never see their money again.

Our best weapon to protect our finances is awareness. Learn from Amy so you can protect yourself and your loved ones.
