Know that you are not alone
If you have been affected by a scam, the
AARP Fraud Watch NetworkTM offers free, confidential discussion groups for victims of fraud and their loved ones.
The
AARP Fraud Victim Support Group provides individuals with an online forum to meet and interact with others who have experienced similar events. Our sessions are a safe environment to give and receive valuable feedback and support from others who are on the road to emotional healing and recovery.
Group sessions are confidential and led by trained facilitators who offer fraud education and understanding to participants, as well as time for meaningful peer-to-peer sharing and support. The recording of support group sessions is strictly prohibited.
You don’t have to be the primary victim to attend. If you are a family member, partner or friend of a fraud victim, we welcome and encourage you to participate.
Experiencing fraud can be devastating, and you can recover from the trauma it causes. Take the first steps in your emotional recovery journey by attending a session today.
Please note, one of the support group guidelines is that you keep your video on during the session. People feel more secure in sharing if they can see one another. To promote safety in the session, this expectation is mandatory UNLESS unusual circumstances exist. If they do, the entire group must agree to let you participate without video. If consensus is not reached, we ask you to kindly return to a session at a time when video participation is possible. Thank you.
