Student Fraud Prevention Workshop
November 20 at 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
In an era where cyber crooks are evolving faster than your next TikTok trend, Canadian university students are prime targets for slick scams like romance frauds that hook you via dating apps with fake love stories leading to “investment” traps draining your savings, job scams promising remote gigs but demanding upfront fees for bogus training, rental opportunities and crypto hustles luring you into phony platforms with sky-high return promises—contributing to over $600 million in projected 2025 losses nationwide, per the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre.
Come and learn from our own Kelowna RCMP and CIBC Wood Gundy about protecting yourself from scams and fraud traps targeting university students! Arm yourself with real-time intel, spot red flags, and learn recovery tactics—because staying scam-free isn’t just smart, it’s your superpower in a digital wild west. Register now and turn awareness into action!
Date: 20th November (Thursday)
Time: 4 pm – 5:30 pm
Venue: Room Art 114
Light Refreshment will be provided!
