ANNAPOLIS, MD Secretary of State – John C. Wobensmith invites donors to attend a virtual Town Hall, “Don’t Get Stung by a Scam…Tips for Donating Wisely,” to learn how to spot scam artists disguised as reputable charities. 

“Con artists take advantage of the generosity of donors, especially during the holidays and emergencies, to fleece individual donors from their hard-earned cash,” said Secretary Wobensmith. 

Join Assistant Secretary of State, Kathy Smith, and Division Administrator, Michael Schlein, for a virtual Town Hall on Monday, November 15, 2021 at 10:00AM to learn tricks used by scam artists, how to spot red flags, common mistakes donors make, and how to register a complaint. 

The one-hour town hall will be held virtually on Google Meet on Monday, November 15, 2021 at 10:00 a.m.
