Detective Pam Methias

Kristina introduced our speaker for our March meeting, Pam Methias. She is a Berks County Detective who spoke about cyber security and how to be on guard from potential scammers and thieves who will steal your identity. She stressed that Medicare, Social Security, IRS, and Department of Motor Vehicles will never contact one by phone.

Also, do not open links from people or sources one does not know. She recommended that daily or several times a week, everyone should check their bank balances and credit card purchases to be on the lookout for unauthorized activity. She suggested that our credit card limits should be lowered as a protection against fraudulent purchases.

In addition, AARP’s website has great information on scams. Never, never let someone into your home that you did not schedule for an appointment because thieves impersonate employees from legitimate companies. Remember, when in doubt look up phone numbers rather than use the phone number provided as a way of checking sources. Finally, we should always instincts or gut. If it does not feel right, investigate.
