I think some of the banks are colluding with the government to cause the problem.

It is a shame that anyone would even think about taking advantage of an person. I think of my own grandparents and it makes me worried that there are people out there.

APS is often the ones who abuse the elderly. Be warned that states routinely make a racket of abusing the elderly under the guise of "protection." Its a sad day in America when APS is involved because the elder is in greater danger from these predators who seek to isolate them from family and friend or anyone who complains about how the elder is being treated by the"professionals" this is a racket for most states to steal from the ones they are suppose to be protecting.

Elderly financial abuse by the caregiver I fear is widespread but supported by government officials at least in New Jersey and the so called Adult Protective Services.

I reported it and nothing is happening. Google: Vera P. Hill and Maurice Lawrence. house at 2722 43rd Place, Los Angeles. Vera P. Hill is 93 years old in Culver West Convalescent 4035 Grand View Blvd, while her house is being rented out and accounts being use by Ms. Lawrence. Vera P. Hill has dementia. Maurice Lawrence just took it upon herself to show up when Vera was sick.. Ms. Lawrence does not have Power of Attorney. Greed and Abuse going on right now.

Financial abuse is defined in California's Elder Abuse and Dependent Adult Civil Protection Act (Welfare & Institutions Code section 15600 et seq.) as "occurring when any person or entity takes, secretes, appropriates or retains real or personal property of an elder or dependent adult with the intent to wrongfully use or defraud, or who assists in doing so." Elder financial abuse is, of course, the perpetration of this crime against elder citizens and dependent adults:
