Episode 7 - Financial Crimes Never Get Old

Show Notes

Let’s dive into the wild story of several elderly individuals’ trust being shattered after choosing ‘A Superior Option' for care and financial assistance. With a cast of characters so morally vapid it even includes a lawyer who used her knowledge of elder law to exploit those she swore to protect, this episode is one you’ll wish wasn’t based in reality. The alleged swindled $2.7 million to build themselves a luxurious lifestyle that robbed 12 seniors of their life savings and left them depleted in the last few years of their lives.

This episode also includes an interview with fraud expert, Kelly Paxton of pinkcollarcrime.com, recorded live at Money 20/20 in Las Vegas, where we discuss strategies and tips for preventing you and your loved ones from becoming victims of predatory fraudsters. You don’t want to miss this valuable episode!
