Frauds, Scams and Abuse

It is a sad fact that the elderly often become victims of abuse, frauds and scams.  In fact, many frauds and scams are targeted toward older adults because they are often home during the day, have savings, a good credit rating, and may be reluctant to report a crime for fear their family will consider them unfit to live independently.

The resources in this section provide information on preventing, spotting and reporting crimes and abuse against the elderly.
