Are You Smarter than a Scammer? - Spotting and Avoiding Online Scams

Are You Smarter than a Scammer? comes to the Pike Branch of the Indianapolis Public Library on Monday, November 9, from 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM. It's a workshop on spotting and avoiding online scams, and it's part of the library's computer and technology series.

The session is led by the library's Tech Learning Team, the same group that runs the rest of their tech workshops throughout the system. They'll spend the two hours walking through how to recognize the red flags of online scams and what to do when you spot one. It's aimed at seniors and adults, so it's a good fit if you're looking to get a better handle on your digital security without having to figure it out on your own.

Registration opened on Monday, October 26, at 6:30 PM, so you can sign up now to save your spot. The workshop is made possible by The Indianapolis Public Library Foundation, which supports these kinds of programs across the system. If you're in the northwest part of the city, Pike Branch is at 6525 Zionsville Road, Indianapolis, IN 46268. The session runs from 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM on Monday, November 9.
