"This Committee's ongoing commitment to fighting fraud against older Americans is raising awareness and making a real difference."

"America's seniors lose a staggering $2.9 billion a year to an ever-growing array of financial exploitation schemes and scams."

"Someone alleging to be from the IRS calls and scares you into paying thousands of dollars or you will be thrown in jail."

"We must not let up on our efforts to educate seniors, their families, and their caregivers about these scams."
