Financial Elder Abuse Is Real!


It is one thing to hear about financial elder abuse stories, but it is another to read about them hitting so close to home! Recently, a Doylestown, PA area bank manager was accused of scamming over $350,000 from seniors who frequented his bank over a course of ten years.  When asked by a judge what he had purchased with the money, the man denied buying anything large or memorable.  Want to know more? Find the original article here.  There have also been several other cases in the Pennsylvania area with similar details and features.  One lesson to learn from these stories is to keep a close eye on your finances to make sure all your balances add up no money is being incorrectly removed from your accounts.
