@pamprier4710 Believe me, I used to work with the elderly and they could call her back later that same day and she'll send them the money again They panic cause they don't understand technology or believe how people can be completely dishonest scumbags. The elderly are from a different time in this world, back when people cared and helped each other. It's sad but their are so many who should have someone else connected to their finances to where they need both to get any money out, or someone in their family who can watch over them, so many shouldn't be living alone but unfortunately they do.

I concur. I am so glad for that woman that the police were there and stepped in for her. I was scammed the same way. These ill begotten individuals are very devious and seemingly know everything about their victim. Seems as though they prey on their victims for some time before hitting them. They knew everything about me, including why I couldn’t have certain things frozen. I haven’t gotten mine back yet but there are police reports and photo evidence. They’ll be able to trace them. Karma is a killer for all deviants of nature.

I had this happen to me yesterday !! As soon as I heard that exact same voice, I started laughing at him. He hung up😂
When you hear a "Representative" from a bank with a heavy Indian accent, usually it's a scam!
This happened to me. I was on the phone with the pretend police officer buying a gift card at Walmart when the lady at Walmart said "This is a scam!"
Evil in the last days will increase and be bold, no fear. Filled with arrogance. Caught red handed by the police and still trying to get the officer to give the phone back to the elderly woman with the cash! Sinister. He may very well send someone to harm the woman just because he didn't get his way. These types of criminals believe they are so much smarter than everyone else and no one will catch them. I hope they find that man and put him in jail!!!

I am glad to hear that . I got scammed by a lady who was acting to be in love with me.

The only good thing was I dumped that lady .
