Every day, hundreds of Floridians fall victim to financial fraud. Many of these victims are trusting seniors who were misled into making risky or inappropriate financial investments by unscrupulous agents and scam artists, including annuities and reverse mortgages. In response, the Safeguard our Seniors website was created to develop solutions to better protect Florida seniors from falling victim to financial fraud.
Florida’s seniors are inundated with offers of financial stability and prosperity at the same time they hear horror stories about fraud artists targeting them and their life savings. The result – making financial decisions can be overwhelming. CFO Atwater is committed to safeguarding Florida’s seniors and arming them with the information they need to ask the right questions and to make informed financial decisions.
