Montana's Secretary of State has issued a warning to business owners regarding deceptive mail and email solicitations that appear official but are not.
While the holidays should bring joy, some Montanans are dealing with scammers exploiting their loved ones’ situations. It's critical to know how to stay safe.
Staying safe online in 2024 is becoming increasingly difficult, with more and more scams being used to steal identities, money, and even hearts. Deepfakes created with artificial intelligence will make it even easier for identity theft to occur.
Attorney General Austin Knudsen is reminding Montanans to be aware of common scams, which tend to increase during the holiday season, as they begin Christmas shopping.
The Attorney General's Office of Consumer Protection and AARP Montana collaboratively trained volunteers this week who will in turn educate community groups in several Montana cities about scams, fraud, and identity theft.
