It seems like you are doing a great job, too. You are being very proactive. Scammers are thieves and they prey on people.Your husband is blessed to have you. I KNOW you are tired of all of it too as am I.
Whenever possible, I ( Just me-not a suggestion for all) try to listen to webinars and go to seminars on scams. It is what I can do for both of us for now.
This walk we walk is very difficult. Sometimes I can laugh about some of it but most of the time it is constant vigilance…..and he is not yet in the actual dementia phase!!! It wears me out. I also have someone with IDD that I am responsible for. No retirement for me! or us!
You get it! I may some day too be in this boat. Who knows? God be with you and all of us.
Most sincerely….

@kmliste I like your suggestion and never considered that. So thank you. We had someone get into our bank accounts and credit cards, they were changing all of our credit card background detail to a "green dot" bank. Fictitious. I still don't understand what they were doing but over time, they probably would have pulled out the remaining money we could use and forward to their scammers fictitious account. My husband isn't in the dementia stage - diagnosed last year with MCI. but he's up there clicking away every day. Ugh. Prayers to all of us, daily. I remember days long ago, when I never heard about a lot about scamming. A different generation we live in now. For sure. Best, Karla
