Fairway Home Mortgage Launches Nonprofit to Combat Senior Fraud
Criminals increasingly target older adults through sophisticated social engineering and impersonation scams, prompting Fairway Home Mortgage to launch Fairway SAFE. This new nonprofit initiative aims to provide seniors and their families with the essential tools, education, and advocacy required to identify and prevent financial exploitation before it occurs.
Beyond the initial webinar, the organization plans to develop a broader framework of community partnerships and educational resources. By providing a secure environment for seniors and caregivers to ask questions, Fairway SAFE intends to shift the focus from reactive damage control to proactive protection. Interested individuals can register for the July 29 event via the organization’s portal to access insights on current exploitation trends and personal financial security.
