Fraudulent investment schemes have become increasingly common, particularly targeting individuals with low financial literacy, such as housewives who manage household finances but often lack financial education. This community-based training, conducted with the Banjarejo Village Empowerment and Family Welfaregroup, used real case examples, participatory learning, and visual media to facilitate early detection skills. The one-day training involved 20 participants and resulted in significant improvement in understanding red flags of fraudulent investments. Post-training evaluations showed 85% of participants could correctly identify indicators of illegal schemes, and 70% committed to disseminating the knowledge in their communities. This initiative highlights the strategic role of mothers in financial literacy dissemination. Community-focused, practical training is effective in reducing vulnerability to investment fraud.
