Scams Awareness Week 2022

This Scams Awareness Week 2022 from 7-11 November, is designed to empower Australians to spot a scam. The Scamwatch website is a fantastic resource run by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) that provides information to consumers and small businesses about how to recognise, avoid and report scams.
