As we conduct more of our personal lives online, from email to shopping to even banking, it is so important to understand the best practices for staying safe online. Join us for an informative discussion lead by Erin Byrne of TechMoxie on how to recognize phishing (fraudulent) emails, avoid computer viruses and scams, and how to find trustworthy information online. The presentation will include a review of actual fraudulent emails and scam “pop up” computer virus warnings.

Erin Byrne is the Education Coordinator and Community Outreach Manager for TechMoxie, which provides technology education, coaching and support especially for older adults.
