Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Yes - sad to say a lot of older people who are not tech savvy do get sucked in. Can't tell you how many phone calls I've gotten from the "IRS". All scams. And the really sad part is that each year that goes by, they get slicker, better at it....people need to pay very, very close attention.

Sadly yes, and even more sadly, it tends to be the frail, sick, elderly and those with learning difficulties who fall most often. It is a truly inhuman crime, because there is no way that the fraudsters do not know full well who they are stealing from.
And they must get away with even more obvious tricks. I often get demands for bill payments and bank details, from people who give the name 'service provider' as the organization they represent.
