Rep. Zach Mako (R-Lehigh/Northampton) has announced a collaborative effort with Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Queenship of Mary Catholic churches’ Young at Heart group to host a seminar aimed at protecting senior citizens from scams.
"Schemes involving scams and frauds continue to grow and evolve," stated Mako. "It is important to be on guard in order to not be a victim. I encourage seniors to attend this event even if they have come in the past. I hope to see you there."
The event, titled Scam Jam, is scheduled for Thursday, March 27, from 1-3 p.m., at Assumption Blessed Virgin Mary Church located at 2181 Washington Ave., Northampton. The seminar will feature speakers from various organizations including the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities, the Northampton County District Attorney’s Office, the Pennsylvania Office of the Attorney General, the Northampton Police Department, and AARP Pennsylvania.
To add an engaging element to the event, several rounds of fraud bingo will be conducted. Due to limited seating availability, attendees are required to RSVP by calling 610-760-9805.
The 183rd District represented by Mako encompasses Lowhill and North Whitehall townships and Slatington Borough in Lehigh County, as well as Allen, East Allen, Lehigh and Moore (part) townships, and Bath, North Catasauqua, Northampton and Walnutport boroughs in Northampton County.
