It INFURIATES me that the government is doing nothing to stop this sort of thing. There should be public service ads on TV and on the radio. And seniors should be getting occasional warning mailers - maybe with their social security statements.
Seniors will ignore all of that or it goes right out the window when the call comes.

Well we cannot baby the old people either, they have agency over their lives, but I certainly agree with PSA idea for basic things, basically a list of things that if people on the phone ask you, you hang up on them.
I think public execution of people who steal from old people should be a good start to prevent theft.
Criminals should be so afraid to steal from seasoned citizens that they can old fogies can walk down the street with 100 bills hanging out of their pockets and no one eve CONSIDERS taking one out of their pockets.
Require the elderly to have only “call out” phones…
