Welcome to another episode of Techie Seniors Training, our webinar series dedicated to building on and improving digital literacy for senior citizens!

This webinar also covers the bigger picture by discussing four other specific technology challenges for seniors, and near the end of the webinar offers recommendations to address the challenges that were discussed.
Internet privacy and security is an important part of digital literacy for seniors. After giving our senior citizen community a heads up on the recent increase in online fraud cases, this webinar covered privacy and information security issues—why people should care who can see which data about them.
What we post on the Internet, especially on social media, can attract the attention of lawless elements and are potentially useful when targeting individuals in online scams.
The lockdown and quarantine measures imposed in the Philippines in recent months due to the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in more people working from home over the Internet and/or conducting transactions online.
Lawless elements appear to have taken advantage of the situation, as shown by an increase in online scams and various kinds of cybercrime, reported by several Philippines news outlets. Senior citizens are especially vulnerable targets of online fraud.
As part of the push for digital literacy for the elderly, the Techie Seniors community members continually receive reminders on how to spot online scams.
