Over $50 billion is lost to scams in the U.S. annually. Victims come from all age groups. But those most often falling prey to scams are between eighteen and twenty-four years old. Scambusters® is a suite of programs, all designed to combat the ever-growing problem by employing a fun game method while teaching participants to recognize and avoid scams.
Scambusters® was created in 2017 with the original intent of teaching high school students to recognize and avoid scams before reaching their most vulnerable age. Scambusters®’ approval rating is evidenced by the fact that approximately 95% of high schools which host presentations issue requests for return engagements to reach additional students. The success of Scambusters® out-distanced its original goals. Its engaging game format has proven to be popular not just among teenagers but with audiences of all ages.
