How to help the elderly to prevent health care product fraud?
When we give some advice to the elderly, we should also help them learn and recognize correctly and prevent them from being simply cheated. What are the common scams of the elderly?

First, health care products fraud

The elderly pay more and more attention to health care, and fraudsters take advantage of this to lure the elderly to buy useless health care products at high prices, explain health care knowledge under the guise of "free physical examination" and "free experts", or send eggs, fruits and small household appliances for free to defraud the elderly.

Anti-fraud tip: in the face of health care product fraud, we should believe in science, and don't believe that fraudsters say there is a "panacea" for all diseases. If you feel unwell, you should go to a regular hospital in time. Don't trust the efficacy of health care products too much, let alone use them as substitutes for drugs. Second, the "pension payment" scam.

In the name of knowing the staff, fraudsters charge tens of thousands of yuan to uninsured people at one time, falsely claiming that they can help uninsured people provide agency services, so that uninsured people mistakenly think that they can enjoy pensions by paying social endowment insurance premiums at one time.

Anti-fraud tip: In many cases, fraudsters usually ask the elderly to hide information from their families, and advise the elderly to pay more attention to policies and social news closely related to their lives. Children should communicate more with the elderly at home and learn about their recent living conditions. If you find that the old man has been cheated, you should immediately persuade him patiently, stop the loss in time and call the police immediately.

Third, winning fraud.

Winning fraud is mainly implemented by calling or texting to say "winning is a lucky audience" or throwing paper winning lottery tickets to lure the elderly to win. Once someone contacts for redemption, fraudsters demand remittance in various names, such as "notarization fee", "transfer fees" and "late payment fee", and commit fraud.

Anti-fraud tip: there will be no pies in the sky, and there will be no free lunch. Old people should not believe this winning information. They should discuss with their children first, or call the police at 1 10.

Fourth, investment and financial fraud.

In recent years, many scams have lured the elderly to invest with high profit returns, including frequent illegal cases in recent years. At first, some lawless elements often fabricated various investment projects in the name of investment, wealth management and pension services, and cheated with high interest, high return and low risk as bait.

Anti-fraud tip: the elderly should enhance their risk awareness when investing, and don't be confused by attractive projects and high returns. They should invest carefully.
