FRANKFORT, Ky. – A new website is now active to help protect Kentuckians against scams.
That’s according to Gov. Andy Beshear on Thursday, who announced StopScams.ky.gov, a website Team Kentucky launched to help efforts to prevent scams through raising awareness, reporting and education.
“Scams are mean and cruel, and they cost Kentuckians of all ages their hard-earned savings that should be going toward rent, groceries, retirement and more,” Beshear said. “While we’ve made progress in stopping scammers, a 2024 FBI report showed Kentuckians are losing more than $74 million each year to online scammers – something we won’t tolerate. Through this new website, educational events and more, we’re going to help protect Kentuckians by equipping them with the tools they need to stay safe.”
