In this episode, we discuss the challenges of protecting vulnerable populations, including aging parents and individuals with autism, from scams. We dive into practical strategies for teaching boundaries, internet safety, and identifying red flags, with examples tailored for different developmental levels.
🎯 Key Takeaways
💡 Scammers thrive on urgency: Their goal is to create fight-or-flight reactions, pushing victims to act quickly and irrationally.
🔑 Examples and non-examples matter: Teaching specific situations helps learners better understand boundaries and safety.
🛑 Teach "Pause and Verify": Whether it’s an unfamiliar phone call, email, or social media link, teach learners to stop, check the source, and verify authenticity.
👥 Trusted adults are key: Reinforce the importance of having someone to consult before making decisions about sensitive information or transactions.
🌐 Privacy settings are crucial: Teach learners and aging parents how to adjust social media and online account settings to limit exposure of personal details.
