The Elderly Are Thought To Be Some of the Most Likely Victims of Fraud
It is often thought that many elderly fall prey to fraud, especially telephone scams, because they are used to being polite with telephone conversations. Also, many elderly are more trusting when it comes to being led to believe they must disclose personal information. And many others fall victim to the promise of prize winnings in return for personal information.

Jackson County victims in land tax sale scams — some elderly or ill — lost at least $375,000, Nixon says
More than 50 people who had property sold on the steps of the Jackson County courthouse in land tax sales were deceived into signing papers that resulted in them being paid pennies on the dollar for the excess proceeds from the sales, Attorney General Jay Nixon is alleging in four lawsuits filed in Kansas City. The victims - some of whom are elderly or ill - lost at least $375,000 total, Nixon said, with one victim receiving only $500 for signing over the rights to seek proceeds of more than $37,000.
