Bob*, the scam artist at my Grandfather's nursing home. Take note, I am coming for you.
Where do I start with this one?
I think my Grandfather is being / about to be scammed by a visitor to his nursing home.
They seem to have invented details of themselves, such as:
* They own a $7 million dollar property in Victoria with their sister.
* They recently sold a $750K home in an exclusive suburb.
But they:
* Drive a $1500 car that broke down the day after they bought it.
* Spend all their cash on betting on horses.
* Spend all their free time at a rough pub.
* Reside in a housing trust home in a bad area.
* Have said that they want my Grandfather to be involved in a project, but have not yet said what this is.
* Have taken personal records of my Grandfather (freely given) on the premise that they are going to see a MP about my Grandfather's finances. (What the??)
I have warned my Grandfather today, Bob will get you drunk and get you to sign documents.
You don't know Bob, you met him when he walked into your room one day, you don't know anyone that knows him.
And what did my Grandfather say?
'Bring me the title to my home'.
I have previously informed the CEO of my concerns, and will be making another call to her shortly.
* Not his real name.
This is an abridged version. I'm too cross to write.
But let it be noted, I raised concerns.
That is horrible. What a disgusting piece of humanity. Maybe your best bet is to confront this guy directly to let him know that if he tries anything you are going to go to the police and have him charged with fraud. Then find someone who can track him down and break all his fingers.
