Fraud is important. I understand you talked about training the bank tellers.

One of the things we're seeing in our ridings is that seniors are being attacked. The people on the phone are saying to them that if they call or let anyone know, they'll know. We've actually heard of them staying on the phone while they're calling family members to send them thousands of dollars.

I'm wondering about educating seniors that that is not how CRA works, or that is not how financial institutions or the government work.
