What scams have you seen to fool the elderly?

Liars usually catch the old people's psychological deception with poor awareness and love for petty gain.

I have seen similar news around me. My grandmother is over eighty years old. Because she doesn't live together, I go to see her almost every week. I went to see her once a few years ago. She told me that a group of old people chatting with me that there was a place to give soup spoons free of charge. She went to get a spoon, and if she went again the next day, she would send a stainless steel basin, and on the third day, she would send a pot.

when we found something was wrong, we immediately stopped her behavior and repeatedly told her not to go again. This time, we stopped her in time to avoid grandma being cheated. Unfortunately, some old people with grandma refused to listen and finally came back with boxes of health care products. Alas! Really speechless!

Speaking of being cheated, this is not the first time. Once, my grandmother told me a story that she was cheated, which made me laugh and cry. Once, when she was shopping, a woman told her grandmother that she came to the city to sell oil, which was rapeseed oil squeezed by her own oil mill. If she wanted to sell it early, she could catch the bus back home. At 8 yuan a pot was given to her grandmother, and two pots were 16 yuan.

Grandma readily agreed. First, she thought the oil was quite cost-effective. When Grandma took the oil home, she was dumbfounded. The container used by the oil seller to hold the oil was an opaque pot. Because the oil was lighter than water, there was only a layer of oil floating on the surface and water at the bottom.

when grandma reacts, the liar has disappeared without a trace. I have to say that this liar is really powerful! This 16 yuan really earned 15 yuan with tears in her eyes!

Another time, my aunt met me. My aunt is over 6 years old this year, and her awareness of prevention is stronger than that of her grandmother. Once, I met a woman in the street asking about the doctor, and another woman came up and said that she knew the doctor and could introduce her to them. My aunt saw the other side's scam in time because she had seen similar news, and then excused herself and ran away.

In fact, the end of this story is that two women made a routine conversation along the way to let you tell your family situation. When you get to the doctor, you will be convinced. In all kinds of temptations, you will take the money to the altar for one night and take it away the next day. When you go again the next day, he will let you take it home and open it. When you get back, the money will be piles of waste paper.

On the other hand, let alone the old man, I have encountered two scams myself. Once, two middle-aged people asked me for a few dollars to buy a steamed bread, saying that they hadn't eaten for several days. As a result, I just had food in my hand, and they refused to eat it, so I turned around and left. Another time, a young lady dressed in fashion asked me to borrow several hundred dollars, saying that she would travel by train, but she lost her wallet. When she went back to her hometown, she added my WeChat and returned the money to me. Why don't you ask the police uncle to come to me?

as the saying goes, greedy for small things and cheap things will lead to big losses.

Young people can't judge which are scams. As a vulnerable group, the elderly should pay more attention to them, don't ignore their lives, visit and honor the elderly at home, and don't let them become the prey of scammers! Finally, I hope that the elderly in the whole world can live a long and healthy life!
