I agree. But the problem is identifying them & tracking them down. It’s too bad her bank didn’t catch something, though maybe the amounts were small enough to go unnoticed. What kind of scam was it? Maybe you can protect someone else from falling for it.
Since there are already laws protecting the elderly, I would think congress could cover these types of fraud, too

It was the “you have to pay the tax $$ up front to get your money” scam.

Churches could do a lot to educate parishioners, too...
