By: The Roseville Police Department\ It’s a new year. Are you or a family member looking for that someone special in 2024? Now, more than ever, people are using their smart phone for almost everything, including finding their soul mate. According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), in 2022 nearly 70,000 people reported a romance scam and this resulted in a loss of $1.3 billion dollars. You’ve no doubt heard of people being scammed on dating apps, but according to the FTC a more common way romance scams began was with an unexpected message on a social media platform. Older adults that are lonely or have recently lost a spouse are especially vulnerable to romance scams. These scammers are unscrupulous and will exploit any vulnerability of their victim. In the end, these scammers have one thing in common. They want your money. The FTC states in 2022 the largest aggregate reported losses were in cryptocurrency, but more people reported paying the scammer with gift cards than any other method. The Department of Homeland Security’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) (https://www.ice.gov/features/LoveOnline) offers the following tips to avoid losing money to a romance scam: Protect yourself and older loved ones by raising awareness. Although this can be an uncomfortable topic, make sure you, your family, and your friends are familiar with romance scams. The more you know about these scams, the better prepared you are to prevent being a victim. Check in on older loved ones. Scammers are seeking to target those living alone or grieving the loss of a spouse as they are more vulnerable. Limit what you share online. Scammers can use details shared on social media and dating sites to better understand and target you. Do your research. Research the individual’s photo and profile using online searches to see if the image, name, or other details have been used elsewhere. Go slowly and ask lots of questions. Don’t let the individual rush you to leave a dating service or social media site to communicate directly. Listen to your gut. If the individual seems too good to be true, talk to someone you trust. Don’t overshare personal information. Requests for inappropriate photos or financial information could later be used to extort you. Be suspicious if you haven’t met in person. If the individual promises to meet in person, but consistently comes up with an excuse for cancelling, be suspicious. Don’t send money. Never send money (i.e. gift card, cryptocurrency, or money wire) to anyone you have only communicated with online or by phone. If you’ve lost money to a romantic scammer or think that they may have stolen your personal information, report it to the FTC (www.reportfraud.ftc.gov) and file a report with your local police department.

Be aware of charity scams By: Roseville Police Department Have you made a donation to a charity recently? Perhaps you plan to make a donation to start out the new year. Whether you are making a donation now or in the future, be careful. There are criminals waiting to take advantage of your generosity. Charity scams take many forms: Online giving There has been a lot growth in online scamming over the past years. Many bad-actors are purporting to be charities requesting donations. Even if you receive an email from a recognized and respected charity name, don’t assume the request is really coming from them. Take a close look at the name of the sender. Does it really show an email address pertaining to that charity? Charity emails usually end in “.org”. If not, it could be from a scammer. Don’t click on or open any links on these messages. Doing so may give the sender access to personal information on your computer and in some cases gives the sender control over your computer. Unsolicited phone calls Phone scamming continues to increase. It’s estimated over 59 million US residents lost money from a phone scam in 2021. Legitimate charities rarely make random calls for donations. The easy way to avoid scam calls is to just not answer calls if you don’t recognize the caller ID. Most of these calls are automated (Robocalls) and never leave a voicemail. House calls and street collectors It’s relatively easy for scammers to go door to door pretending to be collecting for a charity. Some even have fake IDs they show you, knowing that you don’t easily have the capability to check if the ID is valid or not. To help deter door-to-door scammers, post a “No Soliciting” sign on or near your front door. If you are out around town and someone is collecting on the sidewalk, don’t assume they are a legitimate charity. Check them out on your own before giving money or your personal information. Tips to follow: Don’t let any charity rush or pressure you into making a donation, of any kind. Look for specifics regarding how your donation will be used. Confirm that the charity or organization is legitimate and is a non-profit organization listed with the FTC (www.consumer.ftc.gov/). Avoid sweepstakes claiming to exchange winnings for a donation; that’s both a scam and illegal. Some sites to use to search for legitimate and registered charities or non-profit organizations are: BBB Wise Giving Alliance http://www.give.org/ Charity Navigator http://www.charitynavigator.org/ CharityWatch http://www.charitywatch.org/ Guidestar http://www.guidestar.org/ Taking time to ask questions, gather information, and verify an organization’s non-profit status can help make sure that your generous giving will truly go to those that need help. It can also help ensure that your personal information is protected and not compromised by scammers looking for easy targets. If you believe you have been the victim or have had your personal information jeopardized, please contact the Roseville Police Department or file a crime report online.

By: Roseville Police Department While people of all ages can and do fall for scams, scammers often target seniors. Scammers know that many seniors have money to spend and are from an older generation that trust others and are polite to strangers. If you have older relatives or loved ones, they may not be as cautious or savvy when it comes to scams. Here are a few ways you can help protect them and other vulnerable loved ones from getting scammed. Knowledge is power. According to the AARP, people who know about a particular scam are 80 percent less likely to engage with it, and if they do engage, they’re 40 percent less likely to lose money from it. So help spread awareness! Share interesting articles and social media posts (from trusted sources, of course) about prevalent scams with your family—it’s a good way to share information and talk about scams in general, without putting anyone on the spot. If your senior family members are on Facebook, encourage them to follow trusted organizations that provide information about scams and other forms of elder abuse. A great local Facebook page to follow is Placer PROTECT, run by Placer County’s multi-disciplinary elder abuse task force. If they use email, encourage them to sign up for fraud alerts from the Federal Trade Organization (FTC). The FTC’s scam alert website is a fantastic resource for people of all ages. It offers many well-written articles about current scams, and an easy-to-use portal to report fraud. Check it out at the FTC Consumer scam-alerts page. If you’re the techie in the family, help the rest keep their technology up to date. Ask family members if they need help upgrading their mobile phones and computers with the latest versions of operating system software—most updates contain important security patches. Encourage them to use good virus-protection software. If they have a wireless router, make sure it’s set up well with good security and privacy controls in place. Push the use of caller-id. Help enter family, friends and frequent business contacts into their phone contact list, and suggest they only answer calls from people they know. Remind them that it’s OK to let an unknown caller go to voice mail--legitimate callerswill leave a message and a call-back number. Many scam victims feel lonely and isolated, and embarrassed to admit they’ve been scammed. Stay in close touch with loved ones, keep the lines of communication open and keep an eye out for red flags. If you find out they’ve been scammed, let them know it’s nothing to be ashamed of—it happens to many people, and it’s the criminals who ought to be ashamed. Help them slam the door on the scammers and report it. For more fraud prevention information and resources for seniors and caregivers, visit the AARP’s Fraud Watch Network at the AARP Scam-fraud page.

From Parks... "Our contractor will need to close the sidewalk on Holt between N. Hayden and the school from Wednesday 11/8 through Sunday 11/12 to work on the driveway for the parking lot on our project site. They have tried to schedule some of the work to occur on a non-school day (Veteran’s Day (observed)). They plan to open the sidewalk prior to school starting on Monday 11/13. I’ll have them place sidewalk closed signs ahead of time. Pedestrians will be able to use the sidewalk on Hayden, Crawford, and the north side of Holt as alternative routes."
