[quote=Anonymous]In our case the scammers are related. Cousin crawled out of woodwork with sob stories. Sibling who has POA won't let mom be evaluated for FTD dementia, but quit her job and has mom funding everything. She also stopped mom from getting another regular dementia screen after she passed one...6 years ago.

It truly is impossible. In my case I cannot protect someone who is paranoid, thinks I am the enemy for being concerned about her judgment and has family, not strangers, but family telling her anything and everything she has ever wanted to hear as she gives them money.  We are at least lucky there is enough money there for her to purchase the"love" she wants and still fund her aging care as long as the takers don't get too greedy. I looked into my options in the situation and it's pretty bleak. We are not spending our own money to hire a legal team to "protect" a mother who doesn't want to be protected and who has always been difficult. We may need that money to hire care for her if she gets drained dry. It would be easier to prove strangers are taking advantage.[/quote]
