Behind the Scam: Holiday Edition
Protecting Businesses and Our Community from Fraud and Financial Crime
As the holiday season approaches, increased shopping, online transactions, gift card purchases, and financial activity can also create increased opportunities for fraud and scams. The Gresham Police Department, in partnership with the FBI and Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office, is bringing together experts in fraud prevention, investigation, and prosecution for Behind the Scam: Holiday Edition.
This community presentation is designed to help local businesses and community members recognize, prevent, and respond to fraud and financial crimes before the busy holiday season. Attendees will learn about current and emerging fraud trends, common scams targeting businesses and consumers, warning signs to watch for, practical steps to help protect businesses, employees, and customers, and what to do—and who to contact—if fraud occurs.
Hear directly from local and federal law enforcement and prosecutors about what they are seeing, how these crimes happen, and the simple steps you can take to make yourself and your business a harder target. Know the scam. Spot the signs. Protect your business.
