I came across this post this morning on the blog of the Arizona Elder Law firm Fleming & Curti, PLC. I think this is worth sharing with your family. Are your parents protected from this kind of action?

Last week a colleague told us a story that we think needs to be shared. Patricia Sitchler, a nationally-known San Antonio lawyer with the prominent Texas firm Schoenbaum, Curphy & Scanlan, P.C.,
described her client’s eye-opening experience with a fraudulent attempt
to access her bank account. We asked Patty if we could share her
client’s story. Patty wrote:
This is how I spent last Thursday. I thought it might be helpful information.
I spent most of last
Thursday helping an elderly client who was scammed. Fortunately, “Doris”
discovered the scam and we were able to avert disaster. Take a minute
to see just how easy we have made it for the crooks. See entire story here.
